Pro Rape Judge vs Canadian Judicial Council
Canadian Judge Robin Camp asked a rape victim, “Why couldn’t you just keep your knees together?” while presiding over her rape case in court. But it gets a lot worse, he also asked her why she didn’t just “skew her pelvis” to prevent penetration.The victim was 19 years old during the trial, she was bent over a sink during a house party and raped.
Camp recently had to discuss his statement in front of the Canadian Judicial Council. His lawyer said he asked those question to gain clarity, to understand if the incident could have been prevented. I have an answer, it could have been prevented if the rapist walked away once she said no.
Camp apologized to the victim explaining that most of his judicial experience was with contracts and bankruptcy. Also stating that he was from South Africa and had minimal knowledge of Canadian law.
Okay so he doesn’t know why the victim couldn’t simply prevent the attack from happening but his remarks throughout the trial made it seem as though he was ok with what her attacker did. Other comments he made during the trial where, “Young wom[e]n want to have sex, particularly if they’re drunk.” He went on to say, “Some sex and pain sometimes go together…that’s not necessarily a bad thing.”
Then after acquitting her attacker, he gave him this advice:
“I want you to tell your friends, your male friends, that they have to be far more gentle with women. They have to be far more patient. And they have to be very careful. To protect themselves, they have to be very careful.” So basically the next time you decide to rape someone be more gentle.
Thankfully, the verdict was overturned on appeal and Judge Robin Camp can officially be referred to as former Judge Camp. On November 29 of this year the Canadian Judicial Council unanimously decided to remove Camp from the bench.

Re: Pro Rape Judge vs Canadian Judicial Council
You would not believe how many assholes secretly blame women for negative male behavior (ex sexual harassment and rape).
Most men are physically stronger than women, someone who is physically stronger can easily assault you -- and that's not rocket science. How he become a judge when he's missing several common sense brain cells??
Still to this day people are making women feel bad for their clothing (ooh cover up so you don't attract rapists) vs. giving women the freedom (like it's given to men) to wear what they want/reprimand the pervs who overstep physical boundaries.
But hey boys will be boys?
Disgusting.
Re: Pro Rape Judge vs Canadian Judicial Council
I have been following this case. I am happy but not surprised. I find Canada is a bit more progressive. My Dad is Canadian and NEVER acted like my mother, sister or I were inferior in any way except (POSSIBLY) physical strength though he did teach us how to do some basic home and car repairs. Good for Canada. It sucks for him because I believe he loses his pension (if previous articles were correct); worked so hard for so long and lost it all over being a bigot.
Re: Pro Rape Judge vs Canadian Judicial Council
^^Loss of pension, oh well, same goes for disgraced teachers, they're not accountants or mechanics they know they entered a profession where codes of ethics and conduct must be upheld for the title they assume to continue to be meaningful and for them to continue to benefit from their professional designation- they know that designation can be stripped at any time.
Re: Pro Rape Judge vs Canadian Judicial Council
I am so glad he got removed! That story is just so outrageous that it sounds like it could have been from Saudi Arabia or something. What a scumbag.

That's good news, but there are still far too many misogynists with political power in America and around the world.
Re: Pro Rape Judge vs Canadian Judicial Council
“Why couldn’t you just keep your knees together?” Likely because they were forced open, wtf is wrong with people?
Most will sit back and claim this is something woman do when they are invaded, they cry wolf.."
Majority of woman have always been treated like an object or blow up f*ck toy, is this any different?

Re: Pro Rape Judge vs Canadian Judicial Council
It looks like this Judge is unfortunately not going to go without a fight. It looks like he is going to file a rebuttal to the Judicial Counsel's recommendation that he be dismissed. Once he does that, the file will be sent to Canada's Minister of Justice for a final decision on whether he stays or goes. I suspect that the Minister of Justice will follow the Judicial Council's recommendation and dismiss this judge. However, the situation is unprecedented in Canada. As far as I know the Minister has never had to formally dismiss a Judge because the very few judges that have been recommended for dismissal by the Judicial Council have resigned when the Council's decision did not go their way, this is the first judge to ever force the Minister to actually fire them.

Sad part is that there's a lot more where that a**hole came from!
Re: Pro Rape Judge vs Canadian Judicial Council
"Also stating that he was from South Africa and had minimal knowledge of Canadian law."
The obvious question is, why was he on a bench in Canada?
And, down south
