I'm not going to write a long introduction because I know that some people don't even read a "Preface" or "Introduction." Indeed, I am sometimes turned off by a lengthy introduction and preface. We want to get right into the story. That being said, I want to tell you something that might give you an idea as to what this book is about.
As the title indicates, this book is about the psychological impact of victimization and injustice. This isn't your typical book about injustice where you have a victim, and the wrong person is convicted of the crime that they didn't commit. A friend told me how she was victimized, and the perpetrator was never punished but she moved on with her life. This is different. The perpetrator was believed by the detectives in Durham, NC to be the victim and I, the victim, was believed to be the perpetrator.
I have suffered from the psychological impact of that for more than two decades. I am finally getting well. In fact, all the symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I have lost more opportunities than I can count.
The title includes the words "prosecuting the victim" because that's what happened. I was the innocent victim, but they interrogated, jailed and prosecuted me, the victim, and defended the perpetrator.
You might reasonably conclude that gender biases were a major factor for the injustice... a situation in which the police detectives just could not imagine a guy being the victim of an assault by a woman.
