I have no interest in Scala and never heard of Jon Pretty nor his accuser but the accusations are of a criminal nature (either rape or slander) and it feels like as a society we've long developed more reliable tools and systems to deal with such matters.
Right, a system where rape kits sit unprocessed for years
How familiar are you with how Germany processes rape kits? I assume that you assume this was in America.
Germany only moved to a consent-based legal definition of rape in 2016, so I’m not sure it has the best legal handling of rape either.
