Let's assume kanaugh raped someone (Which is worse than the sexual assult claim) 30 years ago.
That's my entire lifetime plus 3 years.
Why should someone be held accountable for something that happened that long ago?

If concrete evidence exists, you should pay for any crime you did 30, 40, 50, even 100 years ago if you're still alive. Justice is served in civilized societies.
For the case at hand, it seems like there is no way to prove he did it. The whole concept that someone can slander damage someone's reputation permanently without providing any proof is troubling.
We have things called "statutes of limitations" in this country. Whatever you may think of those laws, they are laws that we are forced to live under.
Same reason why Germans should still oay for the Holocaust
...Jews said so
By rape I assume you mean actual rape. I don't want rapists on the supreme court desu.
That's not how Justice works. Civilization is all about keeping order.
Justice system is designed to stop, eliminate blood feuds and mob justice.
Statute of limitations happens because crimes never cease. Backlog that hasn't been resolved has to be dumped.
One of the reasons why credit scores reset and debts get forgiven. It's best to put old bullshit behind and resolve new bullshit.
Also, you can't investigate any old shit with science. No way to collect quantifiable evidence.
Woman's life doesn't appear to have been impacted by this "rape." She's got a PhD and is successful. Is getting to her senior years.
She is lying to stop a Supreme Court Justice who has politics she hates.
This.
Justice is the bedrock of the Western System. What is just is applicable to all, regardless of differences. To deny what is just or moral, is to deny the Western Tradition, and fundamentally leads to its decay.
He was underage at the time so he couldn't rape anyone.
Also, if he were convicted of any crime at that age his records would be sealed and this wouldnt matter right now.
you're 10 years old?
>Why should someone be held accountable for something that happened that long ago?
he's not being held accountable the democrats just hypocritically want to buy time until the midterms in hopes of getting a majority to reject all of Trump's picks.
but to answer your question the idea is the victim had to deal with the actions of the other person that whole 30 years. It's not fair.
yeah but did you know there is a second accuser?
this man is a monster.
impeach.
because he lied about it last week
you deserve death for the redditspacing and memeflag although I agree with what you are saying
Even if we are to excuse the dude raping someone, why would you want someone that did that versus someone who hasn't?
Those limitation laws are there to incentivize the victims into reporting the crimes in a “timely” manner. If someone commits a crime and there is irrefutable evidence, they should serve their sentence. We would not be saying “uh man, he raped that kid 30 years ago, who gives a fuck!” if there was evidence. However Brett didn’t do shit, the story is inconsistent, the therapist has loose “notes”, her husband isn’t consistent, Feinstein had the letter for like 8 weeks, this is all just a fucking Hail Mary attempt by the Dems to try and fuck over the conservatives.
The "crime" she alleges took place has a ONE YEAR statue of limitations because it is so insignificant criminally, and nearly impossible to prove even directly after occurrence with all available parties still present to speak to. It's literally nothing the day after, and 30 years later it is so fucking stupid as to call in to question whether or not Dr. Retard Whore is committing a crime by her suspiciously timed accusations.
*statute
>muh statue of limitations
we should build that
there is no statute of limitations for sexual assault in maryland
CHRISTINE FORD AND HER FRIENDS LIKED TO WEAR DIAPERS AND PISS IN THEM!!!
discuss
It's more of a case that if she was completely silent for 30 years and has only decided to bring up the allegations now, she's not trying to see him punished for his crimes, she's trying to use an event that obviously didn't bother her to meddle with the political system.
You are applying current law to something that occurred nearly 40 years ago. Crimes are prosecuted with the laws of the time. You can't be retroactively charged when laws are changed, buddy.
She's going to have to prove that he was sexually attracted to her.
Shame her yearbooks are all disappeared, on accident, some how.
What will happen if Chris Garrett tells monday that it was he who harassed C. Ford 35 years ago?
>agreeing with a memeflag with redditspacing
gys
this would make a good defence
no it would just validate the whole thing and she would be im a strong woman and i know what happened.
