If someone were to start pulling that kind of stuff on her (or various other women I know) I don't think I'd try the legal route to deal with it. From what I can see, the Justice System^TM has neither the tools nor the inclination to actually deal with these people in any meaningful way.

The attack on Lieutenant Negar - known only by her surname - comes after her female predecessor was killed. Alex
