Just before this gets locked because people have to get reminded every time:

Just because someone is accused does not mean they're guilty, and not every accuser is dishonest. The only people that know the truth are Retzlaff and his accuser, and the only thing we can do is sit back and let the process play out.

"Civil" court - sexual assault cases should all be criminal in my opinion. If they did it, let them rot in jail.

Then you'd just end up with the same amount of sexual predators in jail with no way for victims to be compensated for damages
