I suppose you're not saying that there shouldn't be punishment for the perpetrator? These words are in line with the idea of making the incident rightfully about the victim and how they feel, correct?We can help victims of assault without involving the accused. "Justice" doesn't have to involve the other party, it can just involve the victim getting the help they need to achieve the life they deserve despite what happened too them.
Basically yes, some time’s the accused will be found not guilty merely because there wasn’t enough evidence but that doesn’t automatically mean the victim isn’t a victim. We can still believe the victim and provide the appropriate resources to them so they can heal.
