This reminds me of when
Mr. Hill, our scoutmaster (Chicago), told us that when he was
young, if you were standing at the streetcar stop next to a woman who
yelled "Rape!," you were going to do time. Period. So now,
he said, if you're ever railroaded, all you need to do is get three
people to testify that they had sex with her too, which would show she
was a wanton woman, and you'd beat the rap. I'm not condoning any
of it; don't even know if it was true. Just saying what happened.
Gave us a sense of security, even though not one of us had experienced
puberty. Anyway, I guess this Mann
Act waiver was also part of the package back then. I wonder
what ever happened to Santa Siciliano?
