It puts using the argument that they can help save other women, out to pasture because, well, what's the point if a judge is going to let the rapist go anyway?
Exactly. It's like saying, "yes, it will be painful and drawn out, and you'll feel like your being violated all over again, BUT in the end there will be JUSTICE." Except instead of justice, it's just a victim being degraded and dehumanized a SECOND time, and a rapist getting to go on with his life like nothing ever happened. Not worth it.
