Does anybody have any information about this. Here are my questions:
If the person accused accepts they are guilty instantly, does this avoid court?
If so, what is the process?
If the person claims they are innocent and it goes to court, with no evidence and only versions of events from either side, what happens?
Is the accuser likely to be cross examined. If so, what happens here?
What if the accuser is too worried to stand in court?
Is it common for these kinds of cases to go to court, what is usually the outcome?
Are the perpetrators often found to get away with these things when there is little to no evidence?
More questions than i expected ha.
