So one thing that I have seen from time to time is looking in that discriminatory application of the law, that sets up the process that there might be a human rights complaint there. Over 90% of the survivors of sexual assault are women. Therefore, any differential treatment in the law that affects women or sexual assault survivors differentially than any victims of any other crime

is going to be discriminatory treatment against women. I've seen a couple of cases in which the outcome of the human rights process has been the police agree to go back and reinvestigate, you know, or to take a different approach if they ever did an investigation earlier.

I agree. I think that that's exactly what it is. I think that they didn't care to get to the truth of the allegations about what was going on. I think the fact it's appalling, appalling that with the resources that you and Julie had, you were able to find so many other survivors so easily because they were there to be found if they had just looked.

The one thing that I do know is that the more the conduct against the female survivor involved sodomy, the more likely they are to use that as a charge even now. Whereas if that was not there, there's a tendency to try and say, well, it was indecent, it was improper, it was assault, but it wasn't gross indecency.
