A) I don't doubt it can be difficult for women - but my statement holds true.
B) Referencing 'Giah Gomeshi' entirely validates my point. He was put on trial by a woman who was blatantly and vindictively proven to be lying through her teeth.
Gian Gomeshi's trial was a farce - he should have never been prosecuted.
As for his terrible behaviour at the CBC - that's another thing entirely, he should have been dropped years before. It seems his office behaviour was no appropriate - but his trial was not for that.
His trial was a witch hunt. He's a weirdo, not a criminal.
That trial also demonstrated how far some women are willing to lie, to the courts, to the public - for whatever reason (retribution?).
Lucy De Coutere was asked by the Prosecution if she had ever had contact with Gian in the years after the fact, she responded 'no of course not' because of course she hated the man for what he did, why would she communicate with him? As it turns out - she had 5000 emails worth of correspondence that she magically 'forgot' about. 5000 emails. And all of it fawning, appreciative, and most of it about her trying to elicit his attention, to get him to visit, to go out with her - over many years. And so she tells the court that none of this happened? She should be jailed.
Anyhow - the Gomeshi is another very terrible example for women, it it's not going to help those women in actual need, it will only add a layer of cynicism.
