Replying to Avatar Peter Todd

“Schueler physically assaulted a 16-year-old victim by grabbing their hair, dragging them into the stairwell and knocking them to the ground. While the victim was lying on their back on the floor, Schueler punched them 4 – 5 times in the face, nose, eyes and head area. Schueler caused the victim to suffer pain, broken facial skin, bleeding and swelling in the facial area. In addition, the victim's clothes were covered in blood.”

It would be very interesting to know the gender and race of the 16 year old... This could be anything from a failed attempt at rape to a failed attempt at robbery by a 16 year old thug.

I don't think race and gender is important. All combinations are possible. Surely it can be either defense or offense and we don't know.

If it's a black male, it raises a lot of questions that are not raised by it being a female.

Remember the charge may be a fake, tacked on charge, to try to reduce public sympathy.

Well, some scenarios are more probable but ultimately it doesn't matter. Due process should consider all possibilities. I support fair trial even for worst criminals.
