URGENT - Judge declares mistrial due to our free speech to protest his unconstitutional ruling! You must join us at the county courthouse - it is up to us to be the voice for all who have been silenced by violence!
Last month, Lancaster, NE County District Judge Jeffre Cheuvront barred the words "rape", "sexual assault nurse examiner" and "sexual assault kit."
In the sexual assault survivor Tory Bowen's opinion, Cheuvront's ruling means she will have to lie on the witness stand.
"The word "sex" implies consent," she said. "I never once would describe (what happened) as sex. He's making me commit perjury."
We need to amend Nebraska law, currently it reads:
Section 27-403
Rule 403. Exclusion of relevant evidence; reasons.
Although relevant, evidence may be excluded if its probative value is substantially outweighed by the danger of unfair prejudice, confusion of the issues, or misleading the jury, or by considerations of undue delay, waste of time, or needless presentation of cumulative evidence.
**End this travesty of justice!! Give survivors free speech on the witness stand to testify the truth! Please sign and forward to your friends!
