I unfortunately knew it would come to this eventually.
The whole #metoo movement is rapidly spinning out of control. I've just read an article on jezebel.com that...well...implicitly outlaws anything regarding relationships if you look closely into it (it's about the accusation of Jack Smith). The stakes are obviously much higher here. and it's pretty much impossible to do anything but believing either side. The facts are from THE FREAKING EIGHTIES!!! Honestly: what kind of evidence would an FBI investigation turn up, really? You know the answer to this: nothing but wasted time. Time that's very valuable, for that mid-midterm election thing.
You know I hate Trump as much as the rest of the non-US world, but I can't fault him for pinning this on democrats (even though Blasey Ford is technically politically independent).
Republicans blame democrats for abusing #metoo to sabotage their government governing tasks (and they'll be right, in their way). Democrats blame republicans for trying to put an accused sex abuser in place (and they'll be right, in their way).
...but for me personally, I choose to believe Ford. She should've gone to the police LAST FREAKING CENTURY but that doesn't mean I think she lied.
EDIT: I'm an image thinker. Combine that with stupid series like cold case, CSI cyber, CSI and the like, and I can just about picture how this'll go...
Older veteran character: okay, crew: listen up. You've seen the news: Ford has accused Kavanaugh of rape in the '80s. She's about to testify next friday. Kavanaugh claims to be innocent. More importantly: Kavanaugh is to be made judge for life in three days. That means we've got to find out who's lying before then!
*instant swap to the street*
cop 1: this should be the place where the alleged accusations happened. They must've entered here...
*insert sepia shot where two 80s-dressed characters walk in without sound whatsoever*
cop 2: and this is where he allegedly thrown her on the bed.
*zoom in on the wood...that has A SCRATCH, implying that this came from the rape 34 years ago*
*meanwhile*
nerdy investigator: chief? You want to come here for a second. We've got something.
Veteran character: okay...what have you got?
nerdy investigator 2: as you can see from the insertion traces you'll see a detriment in the aging process of the inner membrane. Moreso, we've been able to extract some residu of live organic tissue that isn't created by the host and in age matches the date of...
Veteran character: in English please?
nerdy investigator 2: this piece on her clitoris means that she had forcefull sex about 34 years ago. We also extracted some sperm from that time...but we cannot prove that it belongs to Kavanaugh.
nerdy investigator 1: damn it. She could've been raped by ANYONE! Kavanaugh will never consent to submitting a DNA sample, seeing how it could be used to prove his guilt.
*zoom in on chief's head*
Veteran character: this calls for swift and diplomatic action. I'll ask for the full co-operation from the highest level authorities!
*flash to another situation*
Donald Trump (on television): it's NOT TRUE! Not! True! It's so not true that it's lying. LY-ING! They're the Federal Bureau of Investigation. They're democrats. It's true! They've planted it there themselves!
Chief of Veteran character: damn it! This whole thing has gone political. You've got to solve this NOW! Can you handle it?
Veteran character *with dramatic music*: I
always solve my cases!
*insert commercial break*
...and so on, and so on.
