Yes, rape victims should testify in court because they want to know you raped them and want to throw them in jail. Because if they don't tell anyone they will live misirable. It is kind of cruel to relive people of the truma they suffered because hello they were raped. Imagine that happen to you would you tell someone what happened and find the person who did it or keep it a secert? Yes because they can't find the accuser if they are not allowed to testify.Yes because if the accuser will not go to jail for desobaying the law so that is like a guy raping a girl and getting away from it forever.Rape victims sould not be treated different because it is not their fault for getting raped. It is the attackers fault so they sould be treated different because they did the crime.

I strongly think rape victims should testify against their attackers! I personal think its not cruel to force the victims to relive the trauma they suffered, if it was me i would want to face the person who rapped me. keeping someone from testifying is denying them the right to confront their accusers. shielding them from defense cross-examination does prevent crucial details from coming to light being discovered.Rape victims shouldn't be treated differently at all because of the nature of the crime.

I think that if rape victums WANT to testify, then they should be able to. But, if they don't WANT to then they shouldn't have too. I don't think that anyone should ever have the right to tell someone, rape victim or not, if they can or can't testify! So, personally, I can't honestly answer the question with a yes or no.

I think rape victims should have the choice of testifying. Some people cant deal with the trauma of rape and making them testify would just be cruel to them, but to those who can deal with her attacker than i think they should defiantly testify against them. Rape victims should NOT be treated differently because of what the went through because it is not their fault.In fact i think rape victims should have their own choice of testifying against their attackers.

18,
I strongly agree with you because it is true that rape victims can testify if they WANT to and if they don't than thats their dicsion if they want to throw the person who raped them in jail.

6.16 I don't think rape victims should not testify against their attackers because the victim might be lying and saying that the attacker did it and make up a story. I don't think its cruel to force these victims to relive the trauma they suffered because they need to know what they attacker did to the victim.I think rape victims should be treated the same because they may not be telling the truth about the rape unless they have witnesses that can supporting them in there case.

I believe that in court that rape victims should testify in court.

They should face their attackers, and show them they are not scared! If they don't want to face the trauma they suffered then they shouldn't, but i think that if they face the truth then it will be more easy for them to forgive that that happened to them. I also believe that rap victims shouldn't be treated differently because of their attack, because it wasn't their fault in the first place.

Rape victims should testify against their attackers because if they didn't do it then they should defend their self. Yes it is cruel because they shouldn't have to suffer. Yes it is keeping them from confronting them because if their keeping them from testifying then its keeping them from everything else. I think that it would be fair to them because they get to say everything they want to say and not have anything said about it. I think it should be treated equal because you don't know for a fact that the rape victim did it or not.

Rape victims should testify their attackers is court. They should be able to press charges against them. I also think its cruel for the victims to have to relive the trauma the suffered because, they shouldn't have to suffer. If hes not allowed to testify then he isn't allowed to say what he wants and he wouldn't have the right to confront their accusers. Shielding the victims and not letting them be able to question can be unfair and will change accused attackers saying. No, because if they get raped most of the time it isn't their fault.

6.19 I think that if the rape victim doesn't want to testify then they should get a lawyer or someone else to represent them in court. if they don't then the attacker would get away with it and think its okay, and most likely rape again.

6.11 In my opinion I think Rape victims should be allowed to testify in front of the jury and there attackers. It should be the victims choice to relieve their trauma issues they suffered.The difference between confronting their accuser and not makes a big difference. From preventing them cross-examination would prevent crucial details.
