Legal system fails in dating app case
During the summer of 2022, someone I know was deceived, and roofied-raped but she never got the justice she expected hence this piece. Sometime afterward she decided to file a report creating a case which she later lost due to a corrupt justice system in the state of Texas that said there was a lack of initial evidence (rape kit was not done in time), meaning no charges were filed aside from a file that was kept as a reference by the department who even denied her a copy of her own records, victim statement after the case was closed. It took some pressure from various people to finally receive a copy of the report a month later. Time went by… as she continued her life yet struggled to write this because she wasn’t believed initially so she kept this story mostly to herself, and an advocate friend who supported her through the process until now
