Usually I don't like to be serious here, I just joke around but honestly reading into this stuff has sickened me to my core. Maybe Alice is lying, maybe she isn't, I don't know but what I do know is that circumstances like the ones alleged can and do happen all the time. Using money, fake affection and status to take advantage of people with mental issues, addiction issues or a murky past that a predatorial individual knows will allow them to cast doubt over their victims.
Most people know their rapist. It's not uncommon for victims to feel obligated or guilty or responsible for what happens. It's not uncommon for them to deny, or defend or retroactively change events to suit the person who raped them. If you have never seen this happen to someone you deeply care about, or experienced it yourself, it's hard to put into words the sheer depths the minds of vulnerable people can stretch to accommodate evil people and reprehensible behaviour.
True, it can happen to anyone but the people consistently at risk are people who are developmentally disabled, mentally ill, previous victims and those without strong social support systems. Predators can sense who these people are and root for them like a pig looking for truffles. You can't prevent it from ever happening and it's a fool's errand to try but what you can do is be a a good person in the lives of the vulnerable people you know. Be a friend, be a brother, be a sister, be a normal person who can help encourage normalcy in people you know who are risks for victimisation. You may be the person who can either prevent someone from being wronged in a way they can't ever fully recover from, you may be a person who helps put them back on the right path.
I'm not asking you to believe Alice (with regards to the Ralph stuff, I do, personally, it has far too much in common with what I've seen in my life). But care for the people you do trust, family, friends, whoever it may be. Don't let them spiral downwards in a cycle of predation and abuse.
