It's beating us over the head with its point, like "Unbelievable".
At the same time, it's highlighting the fact that the aclu stood up for an assaulter.
There's not too much subtlety or nuance, that could have been added.
I think this story would have been more interesting if told from the point of one of the women who said she was just robbed, but then she sees the court case play out.
Also, the mom's view was just tossed to the side, when at that time she honestly had a valid point. Most women DID only get shamed and treated worse for reporting what happened to them, it still happens. She wasn't this evil out of touch person, she wanted to protect her daughter given her own life experience.
