    Tough line to draw really.

    The legal system is built on “innocent until proven guilty”, so it’s understandable why entire careers aren’t brought to a halt because of one or more allegations of misconduct.

    Problem is, how do we let that continue while listening to complainants, making them feel heard, and safeguarding future potential victims?

    I’m not asking you in particular, you’re just the comment I’ve replied to - it’s one of those impossible situations to draw a line in the sand without fucking over one of the sides.

      We trap their souls in a time cube at accusation, allow them to do what they want until trial, and after the trial if the verdict is guilty we activate the cube which will bring them back to the accusation time and they can be shunned accordingly. There is no flaw in this plan. Except, of course, for the Time Slime.

        Any children born during initial interim period are sold off upon a guilty verdict to rich Time Oligarchs such as the The Doctor, as fodder for their endless pointless pursuits and conquests.

        Well if anywhere is a time cube it is Brighton. Of course all the current souls in there were trapped in the '80s, so you’d have to decant them first.
