The Accused (1988)
A young woman is gang-raped in a bar in front of witnesses who cheer on the attackers. The prosecutor, facing a weak case, initially pleads the charges down. Horrified by the injustice, the victim pushes for a full trial. The prosecutor then takes the unprecedented step of prosecuting the witnesses for criminal solicitation, arguing they encouraged the crime, in a fight for the victim's dignity.
