Three officers accused of sexual assault on female parking enforcement officer

[Smallcock]

Is this a case of sexual assault or consensual sex followed by regret? I can't tell anymore.

Of course, sexual assault is a very bad thing. But if it's going to happen to someone, it might as well be the traffic wardens.

I've been following this one in the media and I don't have any sympathy for her.

She got drunk, very drunk and lost control of the situation and now wants to blame someone other than herself. If she had gotten in a car and drove home and smashed into a pole, or worse killed someone she would have a criminal record or ended up in jail. But because she ended up with no pants on its someone else's fault.

She needs to be held accountable for her own actions.

^^^ I agree JTK, it seems like buyers remorse in this case.

I've looked at some of the arguments on this as well and it would appear that she was looking for what she got. Just a speculation though in an after the fact sort of way, word probably got out about what she did around the division and she felt the whispers and stares, whether they were there or not and felt that she couldn't work under those conditions anymore and therefore needed a way out.

So the accuser has her name protected with a publication ban but those accused have their names plastered across the media? That seems unfair given the impact this will have on the lives and careers of those accused. If they are found to be innocent, the damage done likely won't be able to be undone.

^^^ looks like one of the officers is a terbite!

I agree. The accused should always have their identities protected unless found guilty. I've never understood why it doesn't work this way. All you have to do is be accused/charged with something and your face is all over media even if you're innocent.

We have a "no hugging" policy in our company. Police should have the same policy. TTC should have the same policy. Our military should have the same policy.

Remember those two Liberals who messed with a female NDP'er?

Yeah, the status quo really doesn't work great in the modern social media era. You're basically condemned to a life of shame whether you're guilty or not.

As for this case, I imagine it all rides on their admitting how drunk she was and judge's interpretation of their own level of intoxication. If the complainant was obviously drunk and therefore unable to consent, and the officers were mostly lucid, then a case could be made for sexual assault.
That said, I'm personally of the opinion that if you willfully get intoxicated as an adult, you are responsible for whatever you do while in that state. Which makes this case baseless in my eyes.

If she was blind drunk the cops should've known better. No consent can be given under such condition nor any consent given should be accepted.

Of course, but who is to be believed? Recall the two doctors that were accused of drugging and sexually assaulting a student in a hotel room? The charged were eventually dropped when the accuser's story about being unable to walk or talk at the hotel was proven false when the court was shown hotel security video of her with all her wits intact. http://news.nationalpost.com/toront...assaulting-student-after-night-out-in-toronto There are many cases like this.

In the current cop case, the lead-up is similar but even more dramatic. Why did the accuser go to a strip club with the cops? After that, why did she jump into a cab with them? After that why did she go to a hotel room with them? It seems like a hyper sexual night that everyone was game for.

That's why I started with "if". Strip club or not, cab or not- those are beside the point just as much as dressing "sexy' is not an invitation to sexual contact. The judge will hinge the verdict on her ability to offer consent.

A bit of a double standard here.

If you get rip roaring drunk, then jump into a car and crash, they you are guilty and convicted. There is no excuse that you were out of your mind, so could not control your actions. You decided to get drunk, so you have to face the consequence.

In the case at hand, she got rip roaring drunk with the rest of them. How come only men in this case can be responsible, even though they were all drunk together? What if one of the officers had been sexually assaulted by her and had lodged a complaint? He would have gotten laughed out of court.

Why do men and women having spent a night out partying and getting drunk get hotel rooms? To talk?

I asked this in the other thread about this topic and got no answer, but just wondering..... (for those of you who know union mentality)......


For anyone who knows how police unions think, whose side does the typical union member side with in this case?

Let's face it, when a cop does something stupid against the public, they all rally and try to protect their own butts. It's never their fault, sergeant gets on a stage and protects his officer, you know the drill. One big buddy buddy system where they all keep their mouths shut and hope nobody notices and films it.

But this time, it's cop vs cop.

So is the average cop rooting for the the accused party to be guilty as they assaulted one of their own? Or are they hoping they get off scott free because it helps protect their image?

Curious.

You do realize that even if that was their plan, agreed upon beforehand, and she withdrew her consent just as an officer in question was about to jam his dick in her pussy while she was on her hands and knees, naked, it would still be a sexual assault, right?

I think all 3 cops were senior to her and should be held to a higher standard befitting their seniority. Also, wasn't at least one of the three married? This is "conduct unbecoming".

I think you are correct according to the law that if she withdrew her consent or was not able to give consent due to intoxication and sex still occurred than sexual assault occurred.

 

[HOLLYWOODG]

Think she is one totally fucked person and it is a case of buyers remorse.

In my opinion, she felt uncomfortable when the bragging in the locker room took place days after the incident and tried to save face by claiming that she was raped.

 

[curr3n_c1000]

I've had enough with stupid women like her to be honest.

Whatever happened to preventative measures? Make better choices.
