Spanish Judge Asks Rape Victim If She Tried Closing Her Legs

A Spanish judge is under investigation after asking a rape victim if she tried closing her legs.

According to The Clara Campoamor Association, a gender-rights group in Spain, Judge María del Carmen Molina Mansilla engaged in "offensive, degrading and humiliating" questioning of a pregnant woman, who came to a police station last month to report she had been physically and sexually abused. The judge reportedly went so far as to ask the woman, “Did you close your legs firmly? Did you close off your female organs?”
