Apparently not that uncommon

Posted in general by Ha Kohen

In what is apparently not that uncommon an instance, a convicted rapist in the Alabama state prison system is now suing an advocate for his victim.
Stanley Wilson, convicted gang rapist and ringleader in a 6 hour, multiple party, sexual assault has recently filed a lawsuit in Montgomery County Circuit Court against Miriam Shehane. The issue? Though sentenced to life in prison Wilson had hoped to get out early on parole but was denied in part due to social uproar caused by social activist Miriam Shehane. Wilson is suing the advocate for the victim for contributing to his lack of parole for two and half million dollars.  Interestingly enough, now defendant, Shehane did not even speak at the hearing but merely accompanied the victim for emotional support.
