Cu alte cuvinte, nu se prezumă că o fată de până la 14 ani e insuficient de matură ca să-și ofere acordul pentru un act sexual, ci se interpretează de la caz la caz.

"Alec Holowka, my brother and best friend, passed away this morning,” Eileen Holowka wrote. “Alec was a victim of abuse and he also spent a lifetime battling mood and personality disorders. I will not pretend that he was not also responsible for causing harm, but deep down he was a person who wanted only to offer people care and kindness. It took him a while to figure out how.

“In the last few days, he was supported by many Manitoba crisis services, and I want to thank everyone there for their support,” they continued. “I want to thank [game developer and producer] Adam Saltsman for staying up late talking with us and reminding Alec that there was a future.”

Alec Holowka died last week. This came after a week in which several revelations about his past and present actions came to light, from several sources. Allegations of sexual and emotional abuse, of fits of violence, of additional misconduct towards those who now worked for him. I had no issue believing them. I still believe them. And not just out of some principle. I’m not one to just make a snap judgement about someone I’ve known for 6 years. The reason I believe the many allegations has roots that go back those entire 6 years. I want to talk about those 6 years now.

I won’t discuss too many specifics of the allegations others have made against Alec. Those aren’t my stories to tell. I have my own story.

There’s a hole in my life where he was until not very long ago. My relationship with Alec was complicated. He was, depending on when you asked, my friend, my collaborator, a nightmare, the origin of my PTSD, and the reason I was in therapy. Sometimes all of those at the same time. There are several people who could say the exact same thing about him. Too many, I’m finding out.
