Victim/Suspect

This is a heavily intense true account whereby a young reporter explains how the police can sometimes misuse their powers when investigating sex cases.

A person makes an allegation of rape or sexual assault and instead of properly and fairly researching the case some police will incorrectly turn the tables and accuse the victim of making a false report and have that person prosecuted.

Quite shocking how frequently this can happen.

Also, what is disturbing is how the police are allowed to get away with lying to victims and persuading vulnerable people to admit they are the ones at fault when they are innocent.

But then again I ask myself why are police allowed to pretend to be underage children and lie to adults to entice them into sting operations?

Although this documentary could be made more exciting, the subject matter is well handled and worthy of a high rating. Six and a half rounded up:

7/10.

Watched this documentary with my wife and it's sad very very sad to think that the "authorities" lack so much compassion. The uniform itself should spell out how can I be of service. Why do they apply and study then get the job to protect and serve only themselves? In today's world all kids have to be so aware as to not tarnish their reputation especially on social media. Unlike when we went to school our reputation was word of mouth. These are little girls with tiny little hearts. Even when a women is all grown up with children of her own she is still herself just a little girl with a tiny little heart and they all bruise easily.

A must see for everyone. Never ever speak to the police without a lawyer present and always remember they can outright lie to you about anything and everything. This is yet another doc about police manipulation and taking advantage of a vulnerable population. Truly disheartening. It is disturbing to see the kind of men depicted in this doc, but everyone needs to be aware of these predators and how they take advantage of those they claim to like or help. Not only should this be required viewing for police, it should also be required for all 8th graders. I had heard of this happening but had no idea just how widespread it is. Our justice system may be one of the best out there, but it needs improvement.

As a multiple sexual assault victim, myself.

I'm kind of glad I never came forth to report of my assaults, or even mention them to those I even trust, or should trust.

I have heard too many stories of how victims have been shamed, or have made to feel/think we have deserved it some way (the way we were dressed, acted, mixed signals, etc).

It's truly sad.

More needs to be done.

It's deplorable of what are justice system is. Even more deplorable of our "serve and protect" people are.

My faith in humanity and society is pretty nonexistent, nor will I ever turn to those who I'm expected to trust (LE's) to expect to protect me. I think I will rely on myself to do that from now on.

Despite the ones who gave this a low score, probably because their either incompetant police or they are more focused on trival matters instead of the big picture that these women were assaulted and the lazy or corrupt legal system let them down and jailed them for daring to report a crime commited on them, there are a lot of documentaries on how lazy, stupid and corrupt american law enforcement is and how corrupt the legal system in America is, and i don't think it will change till they get properly educated and trained officers in the police force, and start to fine the incompetant ones, the same with the prosecuters who with hold eveidance so they can win a case on a lie.
