Another Reason Not to Move to Idaho
by Lorraine Berry
Lewiston, Idaho investigators believe that 70 percent of the rape victims they interview are lying. The original story was in the Lewiston paper, which only allows access to its online stories to print subscribers, so I can't comment on what would possess these men to make such a fucked-up assertion, but for whatever reason, these police officers, charged with protecting the women in their community, have opted to demonize them as liars. I'm assuming that their supervising officer will be demanding their badges. In the meantime, despite the spectacular natural beauty of Idaho, I'd advise women to avoid the state all together. Call it a girlcott.
