At the very start of the day, I mentioned yesterday news about Chief of defence Angus Campbell coming under fire for telling first-year cadets to reduce their risk of being sexually assaulted by avoiding the “four As” – alcohol, out after midnight, alone and attractive.
He has now made a statement to AAP saying that sexual assault perpetrators are always to blame.
I am aware that my comments have been interpreted by some in a way that I did not intend.
There is never an excuse for perpetrating sexual assault or sexual harassment and the perpetrator is always to blame.
