A Nebraska judge ruled that a rape victim could not use the word "rape" or the words "sexual assault" when testifying against her assailant (oh, sorry, "assailant is also a no-no in this judge's court). The judge felt that the use of such words would prejudice the jury into thinking that the rapist might actually be guilty (rather than presumed innocent) and, thus, he would not be getting a fair trial.
How then does one describe this crime? We had sex?
