30 Republicans vote nay for rights of victim who was gang raped

APK wasn't defending anyone's position, most here can speak for themselves.

What appears to have happened ( according to the article ) is the rape kit was taken and then given to Halliburton officials.

That would be like handing over a bloody knife to the defense BEFORE it was tagged or the blood sample taken for a DNA match.

That wasn't a case of discovery or due process, that was close to malfeasance

APK, you can ask for all the links you want but these 30 republicans are still complete dirtbags.

Without knowing the language in the bill, how can you condemn anyone's vote?

You would fit in perfectly with today's Congress....
....but we didn't read the bill

and what about when she then wants to sue the alledged rapists.
Should all presumptions go against them and in favor of the victim?

Should they lose their "due process" ?

Certainly KBR has an interest in this going away, but, without a chain of evidence, how do you know Haliburton got the rape kit.

If it was collected, and then Mr X signed for it, then certainly Mr X needs to be held liable.

If it was handed over to "some guy in sunglasses with a a big nose, bushy eyebrows and a bushy mustache...kinda looked like Groucho Marx" then how can you hold Halliburton liable.

The slanted ARTICLE says Haliburton took control of the evidence>
The woman who WANTS TO SUE A COMPANY WITH DEEP POCKETS may also have said Halliburton took possession....

Would love to know the last CONFIRMED individual to have possession.....If that person failed to document who took the "evidence" next, that person, needs to be looked at more carefully.

Meant to say they don't get the evidence during the investigation.
