If the event had been less terrible, if jury had been wiser, then Michael would not have sufficient motivation for his next moves... 

Writing a tough scene like the rape I think gives many a writer pause--because we are about to tell the world we have such thoughts in our pretty little heads...  we can imagine and put words to the horrific. 

It takes a certain kind of ruthlessness in regards to self-protection, a certain kind of courage. 

Kudos!

Oh no!  How could you do that?  I know it's good for the book, but...but...but...

Not only will it keep them reading but they will also be filled with righteous indignation that the Judge and jury could be so gullible and naive. The rapist deserves a very sticky ending.
