Foreword
At this point in history, when we are inclined to think of ourselves as living in a sophisticated and complex society, we are sometimes confronted with situations so archaic that we find them totally incomprehensible. Our legal system is presently getting quite a work-out with massive power structures within our government crumbling under the watchful eye of our various enforcement agencies. Many labor union officials, Mafia bigwigs and high ranking politicians, once thought to be invincible, have recently come under the scrutiny of the courts.
It would seem that we have come a long way in the protection of law-abiding citizens from the ravishing of determined abusers.
One area that seems to have been by-passed in our desire for a protected society is that of rape.
When a woman cries rape, how often is her cry acknowledged? What is the attitude of our law enforcement agencies and courts about the carnal abuse of an average female?
In most instances the implication becomes one of seduction by the woman rather than rape by the man. The physical abuse and mental anguish trauma at the police station, as the victim is subjected to the degradation and embarrassment of accusation by her supposed protectors.
The common knowledge of the circumstances involved in reporting a rape has caused many a woman to resort to other means of protection.
Rita Miller is one such woman. Upon finding the police unwilling to help her rid herself of her unwanted pursurer, she looks for another method. She is finally successful, but only after enduring much humiliation at the hands of the rapist.
