Nick Hermann was the County Prosecutor in Vanderburgh County, Illinois until he lost the Republican primary in May 2022. A likely contribution to his loss was the sexual harassment and retaliation lawsuit brought against him that he settled. That and the $10,000 in controversial expenditures for lingerie and expensive lunches on his county credit card.

304: Joe Incoronato

Rape Culture, Uncategorized

Joe Incoronato was a Dutchess County legislator when in a meeting he said women bring rape and harassment on themselves based on their behavior. The Dutchess Legislature voted 23-1 to censure him for his statements. He responded by introducing a proposal that people can only be censured if convicted of a felony or serious misdemeanor.

He has apologized for saying it while continuing to give further context that his opinion has not changed. He repeats again and again that a woman who drinks or uses drugs is impaired and more open to rape or assault, not understanding that it is the rapist who rapes. Women drinking is not an invitation to rape.
