Sometime ago, I was the victim of a horrific rape. I have been advised by my lawyers not to discuss details publicly, as much as I wish I could explicitly name the perpetrator. What I can divulge, is that he drugged me, and despite my explicit ‘no’ to a sexual encounter between us, he went ahead and did it anyway after the drugs kicked in.
The rape destroyed me, I had to leave my house, drop out of most of my classes, quit my job, and lost many many people close to me. There have been points where I genuinely didn’t want to be alive anymore. The pain that myself and those close to me have had to bear due to the actions of the perpetrator, is indescribable. Our lives will never be the same.
He has had no repercussions in his life, no pain, no loss and no judgement.
