With the addenda of the victim saying "I consider it resolved." Then you have a very similar case. If the victim is saying "Nail the bastard already", it's not a similar case.
Allowing the victim's wants to have that much sway gives way too much power to the accused to either pressure or pay off or threaten or otherwise coerce the victim into saying that. Which, once again, gives the advantage to whoever has more money and power. The criminal justice system works on behalf of society, not on behalf of victims.
And besides, he has already been convicted of the rape. Just hasn't been punished for it. At this point, it isn't between him and her; it's between him and the state of California.
Tech-minded Buffistas, how can I tell if I have 32-bit or 64-bit Windows XP?
Win+Pause is the keyboard shortcut to system information.

You can get that by right-clicking on My Computer, but I can't see where it says 32-bit or 64-bit.
This keeps bugging me:
My biggest issue is that they're continuing to make the victim a victim, when she clearly no longer wants to be seen as such.
No, HE is. His actions kept her in the limelight. He's at fault.
Is there a 64-bit XP? I thought there was only Vista in 64-bit.

Really? Mine says "System type: 32-bit operating system."

All it says is Microsoft Windows XP Professional, Version 2002, Service Pack 3.
There is a 64-bit XP, but you have to purchase it separately and install it yourself. I don't think any computers shipped with it by default.
