It
always takes two to tango
EXCEPT in rape and forced coercion.
There was a young girl who consented in the Garden to sin and then she brought that sin to her husband = DEATH
i do not know the facts with the Roberts case = never read up on it
When someone pleads guilty it usually is a, means and way, to lesser charges.
AGREE = "Victims often wait years to come forward due to shame, fear, or lack of support, and that’s not uncommon."
FYI - GOD commanded for girls/women to "CRY OUT" when being raped = BEST WAY to KNOW = Deuteronomy ch22
But if the thing is true,
and evidences of virginity are not found for the young woman,
21then they shall bring out the young woman to the door of her father’s house, and the men of her city shall stone her to death with stones, because she has done a disgraceful thing in Israel, to play the harlot in her father’s house. So you shall
[d]put away the evil from among you.
“If a young woman
who is a virgin is betrothed to a husband, and a man finds her in the city and lies with her,
24then you shall bring them both out to the gate of that city, and you shall stone them to death with stones, the young woman because she did not cry out in the city, and the man because he humbled his neighbor’s wife; so you shall put away the evil from among you.
25“But if a man finds a betrothed young woman in the countryside, and the man forces her and lies with her, then only the man who lay with her shall die.
26But you shall do nothing to the young woman;
there is in the young woman no sin
deserving of death, for just as when a man rises against his neighbor and kills him, even so
is this matter.
27For he found her in the countryside,
and the betrothed young woman cried out, but
there was no one to save her.
