Hi 9LiveCat, I didn't have opportunity to consider any attempt to timely press criminal charges. In fact, the school's administration threatened me with criminal charges. The large number of witnesses should have established occurrence, but.... Then, their polemics posed, included, was it consensual if not "fully" statutory (some laws back in the 1960's had the early teens & earlier (10 years of age?) as a major factor), the "history" of impairments exonerated most any attack (my large Becker's Nevus was held, more, or less, as granting everyone the right to sexually assault such a freak (most everyone seeing my nevus wanted to at least pet it)), not being fully conscious is established submission, and, who seduced whom??? This website censors any discussion more detailed about an epileptic's legal standing of "sexual consent" during time frames involving epileptic seizures. Not many private businesses were subject to the federal Rehabilitation Act involving prohibited discrimination against handicapped individuals in the 1980's. As soon as my epilepsy became known to private employers, that was the end of employment opportunities with them (my resume had a 100% response rate as long as nothing about epilepsy was revealed). Federal employers were subject to the Rehabilitation Act, and my education and measured skills ranking repeatedly placed me near the top of all, or at the top of some, certificates of eligibles. For instance, one career field was in San Francisco as a Bank Examiner Trainee under the FDIC's Outstanding Scholar Program. As the starting trainee pay was too low to support any family (or even an individual well) near San Francisco, I was the only eligible available for positions left open because of the dearth of other willing outstanding scholars, and by federal employment rules, the agency was obligated to hire me, then fire me if epilepsy did prevent me from performing with reasonable accommodations. The agency refused to give me such opportunity, and the federal government refused to enforce its own employment laws, and instead, ruling that epilepsy is not a protected impairment/disability and that the effects of epilepsy necessarily disqualifies epileptics from the position and from the outstanding scholar program. The notion that epileptics can only perform to lesser levels of accomplishment is erroneous, but still very widely pervasive (one judge told me that my epilepsy meant that I necessarily failed a test that was on record as me more than just passing (maybe it was back to the "too smart to be a cop" paradox of prejudice)). Boredom is more of a challenge with my neurological impairments than intellectual challenges are, and even in school, it was more difficult to maintain a slightly above average grade average, than it was to maintain being in the top 3% for grades in the university, as few university classes were as boring as school classes. Social Security cancelled my hearing for SSI, once I appealed the State Rehab Department's letter of determination that my epilepsy was too complex for successful results (later, I filed suit against the State, too; that's were I got the paradox dumped on me that my epilepsy was not severe enough to be an ADA protected disability, but it was severe enough to be an SSI disability, and it is so severe as to be a disqualification from Rehab services). The Supreme Court refused my case a couple years before "CLEVELAND V. POLICY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS CORP. (97-1008) 526 U.S. 795 (1999) 120 F.3d 513, vacated and remanded", and the decision wasn't retroactively applicable to all the previous Catch-22 cases and to my case of epileptic disabilities: Cleveland Case: http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/97-1008.ZS.html To add insult to injury, the State Rehab & medical providers that "established" handicaps protected, were the ones that firstly demanded I apply for both SSDI & SSI to qualify for their services (that too, is the "LAW"). So, with the resources epileptics should use to engage more fully in life's major activities, gaining access to these resources will preclude the very same activities requiring such resources (on some of the cases audio tapes, you can hear the judges joke about some of this). SSI was on my back 16 months ago, when an old life insurance dropped me for non-payment, but, as the IRS considers the insurance cashing in itself, to meet automatic ongoing premiums, as gainful income. My most recent hostile encounter from those with SSI administration, was over one social worker declaring that it was too dangerous for me to cook for myself, while the SSI social worker held that epilepsy posed no such danger with cooking to anybody. Medicaid medical care is most also never available with quality, much like the quality of care in jail: http://www.tampabay.com/news/courts/civil/inmates-untreated-fatal-stroke-results-in-1-million-settlement-by/2130278 (even here, instead of "let-em-die" faker strokes, the ten-fold-error of 10% rate for PNES is still being asserted as faking-it/mental-disorder instead of genuine epilepsy: http://my.epilepsy.com/pdfs/73113_benbadis.pdf ).
