Something I dont really understand about this case, and all the other claim to gain cases.

Fair enough being compensated if you have lost out financially, such as had to take time off work because of it.

But why should anyone expect to be paid if something happens to them which wasnt their fault, such as slipping over in the street or even something as bad as rape.

Say someone is raped, then goes onto sue their attacker and gets X amount payout. Is that money going to make her feel any better? Or will it turn back time?
