Could the cop have more empathy probably, would a woman be better suited to interview her in that situation yes. Would the police face any sanction in what is shown no. You see something you want to see not something they show us. Sometimes the police will do nothing life is unfair when you are on the receiving hand of that that kind of problem.
In reality her case would get shut unless the rapist do it again.
you said the police were fair. i asked you how they could have been unfair. i don't understand what there is to be fair about

You are the one being outraged and talking about the police victimizing her

i asked you to clarify your point twice. and you didn't. you said the police were fair. so you thought the police could have been too extreme one way, or too extreme the other way. how could they have been unfair? that is now the third time i asked.

by saying the police were fair, you are giving them credit for doing a good job. they did an awful job(as portrayed the first episode). and we didn't even get to the part where they are interrogating her and pressuring her and threatening her! jfc man... what the hell do you think is fair? taking a kid who was raped and putting her in an interrogation room and threatening her? that is when she switched her story. when they were threatening her, and saying she could go home if she just admitted she made the whole thing up.

fair!!! wtf man

So... Snowfall.....

Not what I was hoping for but its good enough to watch I suppose. Pilot was great, then it got REALLY slow until about episode 7. I thought it was more of a "history lesson" then a "period piece". I'm halfway through season 2 and looks like its headed to some interesting places. Its the 3rd season "WOW!" I've heard about that is keeping me flying through this instead of taking it slow.

Reading a lot of mixed reviews on season finale season 3 snowfall...

I was a little lost for the first mins but other than that i enjoyed it, i havn't been that engrossed in a series for along time. Looking forward to s4

My Top shows would be (not in order as such)

sopranos
breaking bad
Black sails
Halt and catch fire (i enjoyed this cos of the theme)
Snowfall (so far its in there)
Gomorrah
Sherlock
Dexter

Worth mentioning:
Sons of Anarchy
Peaky Blinders
Rome (pity ws cut short)
Mr Robot
GoT (would have been in top list other than the way it ended my opinion)
Stranger Things
Billions (bit cheesy but enjoayble)
Mindhunter
True Detective


Porbably missing some too

The police did nothing wrong a victim **** up telling her story with major discrepancies :
- I called my ex dialing with my toes
- I untied my hands before I called
- maybe I dreamed it
- maybe I was hypnotized to believe I was raped
- I made it up

Her foster mom both ****ed her over talking to the police.
Both are the biggest reason why the police try to close the case.
Read the article you ll see that reality is much worse than the TV show. What they warn against in the TV show and that you see as pressuring the victim is what happens in reality where the victim has to go to court for it.

Its a show made woth rotoscope animation by the Bojack Horseman team and is likely one of the most beautifully animated tv shows ever produced.
i watched this across two nights and thought this was a great show. it's a real shame this isn't on netflix getting the visibility it deserves.

Prime video is so underrated by people , the fact that it doesnt have a real subscription seems to make people assume the content is crap since it s free

I've literally spent the last two days binge watching the first seasons of both of these.

Also watched Four Seasons in Havana. It's only 4 episodes but they're each 1.5hours. Was good, definitely worth watching if detective/cop shows are your thing.

My two gripes with it were the episodes were a bit long. I think it would have been tighter if they'd cut it down to one hour. The other problem was they seemed to speak very quickly which meant the subtitles sometimes disappeared before I could read it all, and I'm quite used to watching foreign stuff.

I can't find season 1 or 2. FXnow has season 3, but I can't find the first 2.

Loved season 1 but I can understand someone thinking it's slow. Reminded me of in Bruges.

Finally finishing Jean Claude van Johnson. Another good original on prime

Not much discussion of this show so far as I think many have been disappointed, but the first part of THE TERROR: INFAMY (EP 6) last night was hands down the best part of the season. If u don't want to watch the full season to date, just watch the first part of E6 until the girl crawls up thru the grave and u can quit.

I kind of hated the Snowfall S3 finale for the first 10 minutes but then for some reason I decided I really liked what they did.

I'm up in the air on it. Partially because I wasn't aware of what was going on at first. Eventually I caught on so a rewatch would be better, but I'm not rewatching ****
