Even when the trial began, the police didn't question Jason's neighbor about the attack. Had they gone to get a statement, the trial would have been a quick case. And it's not until a ''third'' woman comes forward to accuse Jason Barnes of rape that the District Attorney finally decides to prosecute. And even then, it's only because their own lawyer vows to threaten him with a lawsuit.

** Emily. After she was assault, clear signs that she had been attacked were easily identifiable to Jason's neighbor: Her forehead was bleeding, clothes were torn, she was walking barefoot while carrying her shoes, she was having trouble walking on her own (Most likely from a concession she got from hitting her head on Jason's dresser), and she was pushed into Jason's truck rather than helped in. Her shoes play an important part to the plot. Despite her purse being bigger than her shoes, her choosing to carry them rather than hug her big purse helped set off the red flags for Jason's neighbor to get Jason caught in perjury during the trial.
