as hard as it is for rape victims in court, i do not buy this argument at all.
most jurisdictions have something called a similiar evidence rule for when dealing with rape due to its private and therefore hard to prosecute nature. This means that even if there is no conviction there is still a very good reason to take someone to court as should they rape again (and most rapists will) the there is already a piece of admissible evidence waiting.
It sounds harsh, and it is, but rape victims have a duty to the wider community to come forward with their allegations.
Many rape victims do wish to put it behind them and move on as fast as possible and for that reason do not want to go to court, this is undoubtedly true, however these people typically want to move on quietly not make a massive scene on social media. While i disagree with this approach personally, i would not normally criticise someone just wanting things to get back to normal- that is not what is happening here.
I have once defended a client against a false allegation of rape and this has that written all over it imo. Although that may just be confirmation bias on my part.
This person is comfortable not only talking about the alleged rape but also to argue and rebutt people who disbelieve her. She is perfectly fit for a trial.
