People should not be discussing issues they no nothing about to begin with. If you have a proper understanding of the law and civil cases, you will know there is much work and preparation that a plaintiff goes through. In this case the plaintiff spent countless hours with one of the best psychologists this country has to offer, she was assessed over and over. Nobody would put themselves through that for no reason at all. Would they? The damage done to a minor is extensive, yes children are all different and all cope differently. I have it on good authority that he was too afraid to take the stand and deny the claims and he signed an acknowledgement of guilt. In my mind that says it all. It cannot be argued that it is about money because it would have cost her hundreds of thousands of rands to take this on with no guarantee of getting it back. There is lots of food for thought, but perhaps a better understanding of the law & psychology is required to better understand the situation?
