[edit] Mike Tyson

Do we need Mike Tyson on this list, it was never proven he raped her. 21:19, 14 April 2007 User:84.26.30.15

He was convicted of it in court, so the court found him guilty, obviously they felt what they saw was proof of him doing so. Tyciol (talk) 11:33, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Change category name?

I think it would be more NPOV to call this category Category: Americans convicted for rape or something similar. Similar categories should follow suit. Category names like this are asserting truth based upon court convictions, which is not verifiable due to evidence in such trials being private. All that can be verified is that people were convicted, and then people can draw their own conclusions from this based upon their faith in the justice system. Simply making assertive statements based upon court decisions is biased in the belief that there is no such thing as a false conviction, or that a false conviction does not exist until a court discovers it.

[edit] Tupac Shakur

Tupac should be added to this list. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.63.91.15 (talk) 21:38, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
