The rape occurred after the marriage, living away in safety does not mean that a partner loses their rights, you cannot take them away. A divorce settlement is what we cannot agree.
Odd interpretation of events. If anything you made a false claim of rape then ran away with the local gangster after stealing the family silver while burning and looting as you did so.
As a result you have been in prison for 40 years and are seeking rehabilitation. The parole board is waiting for evidence of repentance and good behaviour. The signs are not promising.
Looks like you'll be staying inside the slammer for a bit longer.
