The office also acknowledged there was a societal bias that dismissed assault claims by men when the trial was held in the 1990s, and added: “Today, our office acknowledges that sexual violence is a pervasive issue affecting countless individuals—of all gender identities—and we are committed to supporting all victims as they navigate the profound impacts of such trauma.”
They concluded: “We understand the complexity of these situations and the multitude of emotions that come into play for victims and their families.”
The District Attorney is expected to provide updates on the case when new information is made available. The brothers’ next court hearing is on November 26.
