    What happens to the rapist, then? Can he get partial custody of the child? Can he use that as an excuse to keep meeting or at least indirectly interacting with his rape victim?

    What a great healing agent, to force women to be repeatedly reminded of that time when they were raped.

      Don’t worry, the good bible has the answer.

      28 If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married and rapes her and they are discovered,
      29 he shall pay her father fifty shekels of silver. He must marry the young woman, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives.

        Fifty shekels of silver? That’s how much today in Stanley Nickels?

      A child that will be a living, breathing reminder of their attack for the rest of their life is also a cruel thing to force upon them. But this is masochism sadism.
