A young woman was sexually assaulted while out DoorDashing. Two days after she reported the assault to DoorDash, they deactivated her account and she can't access the money she's owed. (streamain.com)

Since you’ve gone around and replied to 3 different comments with essentially the same thing I’ll reply to this one. In large because I think it’s interesting you’ve chose this comment to reply to, since it’s me pointing out the prior commenter implied “she was probably shit at her job and made everything up”. Which is a completely baseless thing claim.

He was allegedly visibly naked through the open door. Either he left the door open intentionally or not is the issue that a court/police should investigate, i agree with that much. I don’t know when or why we’ve suddenly decided she’s a potential perpetrator here but I doubt she’d be able to be charged with trespassing or breaking and entering, since again, the door was open.

“she was probably shit at her job and made everything up”.

Can you quote the whole of what you're talking about here? I'm not seeing it in the chain. Possibly an edited comment.

He was allegedly visibly naked through the open door.

That's the bit that I was unclear about. The article was vague and the commentors painted a different picture entirely. If she didn't enter the home then there's clearly no wrong doing on her part.

So that just leaves determining the man's intent, but the police have refused to investigate the case.

Either because they're inept (likely) or there are details we are unaware of.

Which is unfortunately uncommon in these type of cases.

Either because they're inept (likely) or there are details we are unaware of.

I agree the former is likely and has been historically. Which is what makes thread like this frustrating because instead of “hey the police should investigate this fully” it’s become people arguing she wasn’t assaulted by their definition and people adding misinformation like “she only saw him naked because she entered the house” from old mate. To straight up accusing her of lying as referenced in the link.

I'll be honest when I saw the words "Welcome to the Internet" I completed skipped over that comment as irrelevant when going through the thread lol.

I'd personally still want more details before casting blame. Unfortunately we'll never get those details. Either details were collected at the scene we dont know about, or it's another failing of the justice system.

I hope she gets her money and more though. Door dash has no buisness withholding that from her.
