Episode 145: Minnesota Overturns Felony Rape Charge
from The Speaking Out on Sex Abuse Podcast · host Jimmy and Clara Hinton
The Minnesota Supreme Court overturned a felony rape conviction because the victim was "voluntarily intoxicated" during the assault. In this episode, we discuss why this is dangerous and why the laws need to catch up. We also discuss the sexual allegations against Governor Cuomo, who famously signed New Yorks' Child Victims Act, providing a two year lookback window for abuse survivors.
