I think that if they catch the rapist he should stand trial and face punishment for the rape. In my opinion, he should not be held legally responsible for her death, since he didn't kill her. She chose to kill herself, and I don't think that a criminal or civil jury should hold her suicide against the rapist. The rape charge however should stick, and he should go to prison for the rape. (I don't know if they will be able to convict the rapist without her testimony, I hope they can)
