Synopsis

Kimberly Jansen is a single mother who lives in a small Canadian town. After cutting her hand at a party, she visits the hospital to seek what she assumes will be routine treatment. Instead, she falls victim to a predator in a white coat: Dr. Richard Darian, who drugs her and rapes her while she is asleep. Kimberly attempts to press charges, but the townsfolk and the local police, who regard her as a tramp and respect the doctor, dismiss her accusations.

Comeuppance Reviews "I Accuse" is based on a true story. The story is about Dr. Schneeburger who drugged one of his female patients and raped her. But the twist was.... there was no DNA evidence. I saw it on "Forensic Files".This is a well-written and acted interpretation. Estella Warren plays the victim named Kimberly. She is partying one night and has to go to the hospital after cutting her hand. She wasn't treated, but drugged and raped by Dr. Darian (John Hannah). Kimberly has a bad reputation around town as a tramp and no one believes her. She can't press charges because there's no evidence. John Hannah and Warren put in excellent performances.Hannah plays the evil doctor without going over the top. The mystery aspect is well-handled, but the courtroom scene near the end is a little over-dramatic. Overall, worth seeing for the acting and interesting story.For more insanity, please visit: comeuppancereviews.com
JimmieOlsen Don't waste your time. It's loosely based on the true crime perpetrated by a doctor on one of his patients. What is unfortunate about this film is that the producers changed the facts probably just enough so they would not have to pay the actual victim, Candice Foley, for the rights to her story. This true story is accurately portrayed in the documentary series "True Crime: The First 72 Hours" which airs on National Geographic Channel. You get all the facts in riveting detail and in less than half an hour. Also, Lona Manning penned a very good article on this case, "Rapist, MD", which you can read at crimemagazine.com, an excellent site with substantial information of criminal, legal, and judicial content.
alfmer This movie is based on a real case that is again making headlines. (I don't want to write a spoiler, so it you are interested, do a Google about Doctor Schneeberger.) The story is quite accurate and held my attention throughout.
nakina-1 Enjoyed the movie on Movie network Sunday Nov 30/03. Felt that the flashback scenes to the rape was shown too many times. Once would have been enough. the point was made. Estella Warren did a good job in her role. Reminded me of an Erin Brockovich type character but of course in a different vain.
