My daughter, who’s actually very mature, responsible, and successful, had a first date with a guy last week. They met at a coffee shop after work, hit it off, took a little walk, and because they were close to his house, she let her guard down and agreed to go to his house to see his record collection. She said as soon as he closed the door behind her, she knew she was in trouble. His whole demeanor changed. Without going into detail, he was very abusive and rough.
He poured two glasses of wine and was very specific about which glass was hers, which makes her think he’d put something in hers. Thankfully she just had a couple of small sips, or she might’ve been held captive for who knows how long.
She went to a rape crisis center the next day, and they collected forensic evidence and pictures. She’s not sure she wants to press charges. I want her to fight and make this motherf*cker pay. I guess I’m posting here to get pros and cons of pursuing charges.
