The investigation showed that the young child “suffered broken bones, severe bruising, and was the victim of sexual violence,” according to a press release

A 13-month-old child was allegedly raped and physically abused by a Pennsylvania police offer.

Steven Kyle Cugini, a member of the York City Police Department, was arrested without incident on Tuesday, April 16, following an investigation by the Pennsylvania State Police, Lykens Station, and Lykens Criminal Investigation Unit.

    No trial. No due process…

    You should be ashamed to have typed that. I understand your frustration and anger (I fully agree with you there), but without a trial or due process, I could just say “@[email protected] raped a 13 month old” and now you’re going to die.

    I hope you can see the problem

      That’s not at all what happened here. You can argue for due process without false equivalence.
