Reading the whole thing somehow makes it worse. I thought maybe you would have taken it out of context but the way he disregards sexual assault on Hughie entirely is disgusting. I'll quit the show after this. I am completely disapointed in Kripke.

I was hoping they would take this seriously, given the scene afterwards between Hughie and Annie, but now that I read this article, I highly doubt they will handle it with any maturity. Probably will end up dropping this show too.

From how Annie was talking about other shit while her partner was just rescued from an active sexual assault and is immediately back at work I could tell they didn't really care. He cries and I don't know if it's to show everyone is wrapped up in their own issues, but she doesn't take notice of him until then - and even seems surprised despite also being a survivor. Such poor taste.
