JUDGE JOKES THAT VICTIMS MIGHT ENJOY RAPE

A boneheaded Indonesia judge sparked fury when he suggested women might “enjoy” being raped as much as their attackers.
The crass comments came as Daming Sunusi, running for the Indonesian Supreme Court, was being questioned by a parliamentary panel Monday.
Sunusi was asked if the country should consider the death penalty in rape cases.

He said careful consideration is necessary “because in a rape case, both the rapist and the victim enjoy it,” according to CNN.
Several members of the commission reportedly laughed at the remark.
Sunusi later said his response was a joke to “ease the tension” at the hearing, held to determine whether he’s a proper fit for the court.
“I have three adolescent daughters and one of them told me that she is very embarrassed and that she felt as if she did not know me at all,” he said during an apology at a press conference, BBC News reported.

“[I have] said something that no man should ever say, especially a Supreme Court candidate,” Sunusi added.
Women’s rights groups and an online petition are calling for Sunusi’s nomination to be shot down.
At least two political parties have said they will reject his candidacy.
The Judicial Commission also acknowledged Sunusi’s grave misstep.
“We regret his statement,” spokesperson Asep Rahmat said on Tuesday, according to The Jakarta Post. “We realize that the fit and proper test is the sole authority of the House of Representatives. Yet, we expect the lawmakers to take such controversial statements into their consideration.”
