Since we're all judging the fates of these strangers and the man can no longer
be prosecuted, what does the woman, or the Times, recommend be done now? The
disconnect is that the man was applauded for coming clean. Nor do we know if
he ever attempted to contact her personally to apologize. But had he done
that, would that have satisfied her, in the sense of righting a wrong,
achieving some justice? If he'd been prosecuted and convicted, he'd have been
in and out of prison long ago. How much time would an all-woman jury have
given him? Would that have allowed her closure? What would be justice at this

now, other than humiliating them both before the world?
There are many past sexual crimes that we’re hearing about. They are sure to

others expect me to grow up and get over. I’ve done things to others that
matter to them but not so much to me.
Recently, an Australian 60 Minutes reporter gushed at the new prime minister
of New Zealand and asked when she’d conceived her fetus? I’ll bet he never
works again. But nine years ago in this paper, a woman wrote an OpEd gushing
at the thought of making love to President Obama and everyone thought that was
sweet. Where are we going?
