Ok, here I go typing without being able to see the screen very well. I'm just too lazy to get closer. I'm on the couch and the monitor's in the entertainment center. I'd have to move to the floor if I wanted to see better. so blah to that

i am really surprised that your case cannot go forward without your brothers involvment. maybe things have changed in the past 12 years but when i came forward against that teacher there were several other girls who spoke to the police about stuff he did to them but didn't want to press charges or appear in court. their statements could not be used in court because of that but they were not forced to testify.

thank you for your comment. Brandon just suggested that the girls most likely did not have to go ahead because they were being protected as victims. In my brother's case, if he says that nothing ever happened to him, he will not be considered a victim. maybe? All I know is that it came straight from the detective that in a worst case scenario he would be subpoenaed to testify if he refused to speak beforehand before the court date.
