Why would victims ever step forward if their complaints are basically going to be marginalized.
Victom - "He molested me and tried to put his $$$$ in my $$$$ your hono"r
Judge - "I get that, but think of the humilliation that he's suffered what with his name inthe paper and on the news, that poor poor man, excuse me, I need a quick recess to dry my eyes, the thought of this poor man being dragged through the cours is terrible.
But I have to punish him for two years even though he'll probably be out in two months, and may god have mercy on anyone under 18"
Victim - "Why even bother"
