There's no such thing as not taking a side. If you choose to decide that you don't know what happened, you are then saying you don't believe the victim and her testimony. When we talk about the legal system, you can say that you don't believe her beyond a reasonable doubt, but you are saying that you think the victim is not trustworthy, and that means you have taken a side.
