TVC E. A judge’s job is at stake following the hilarious statement he made in court, the judge who asked an alleged rape victim why she “couldn’t keep her knees together” is facing a public hearing to keep his job in Canada.
During the 2014 trial of Scott Wagner, who was accused of raping a 19-year-old girl over a sink at a party, Judge Robin Camp asked the alleged victim “Why couldn’t you just keep your knees together?” and “Why didn’t you just sink your bottom down into the basin so he couldn’t penetrate you?”.
He also repeatedly referred to her as “the accused”.

Wagner was originally acquitted by the judge but Alberta’s Court of Appeal overturned the ruling in 2015 and ordered a fresh trial.
