I agree that rape is one of the worst crimes one human can commit against another. It is a form of psychological torture. About the only thing worse is murder. So while I agree that rape should be severely punished, that punishment must still be the result of a fair trial in accordance with the due process requirements of the Bill of Rights.

If you can find a way to speed up trials by addressing staffing shortages or other inefficiencies in the system, that's fine. But the speed of the trial must never come at the expense of the due process requirements of our Bill of Rights.
