A federal judge in Canada currently faces the possibility of removal after being found asking an accuser in a 2014 rape case: "Why couldn't you just keep your knees together?"

Federal Court Justice Robin Camp, 64, apologized for his conduct of questioning a 19-year old rape victim. The Canadian Judicial Council (CJC) is currently deliberating his possible sacking in a week-long hearing. The case in question was heard when Camp was still a provincial court judge.

Camp managed to gain a seat in the Canadian Federal Court last year despite his highly-unbecoming remarks. The victim, whose rape on a bathroom sink during a house party even earned an acquittal from the judge for her rapist, was told that she should've "skew[ed] her pelvis" to prevent penetration.

More remarks added greater weight to Camp's sexist approach to deciding the case, saying "Young women want to have sex, particularly if they're drunk." He was consistent in his attitude towards the accuser, to which he said, "Some sex and pain sometimes go together...that's not necessarily a bad thing."

The rapist's acquittal in 2014 allowed Camp to let out vile parting words: "I want you to tell your friends, your male friends, that they have to be far more gentle with women. They have to be far more patient. And they have to be very careful. To protect themselves, they have to be very careful."

With the case having been completely overturned on appeal and set for a re-trial in November, Camp's attitude has come under scrutiny by the CJC, which said that the judge "engaged in stereotypical or biased thinking in relation to a sexual assault complainant."

The South African-born Camp, who moved to Canada in 1998, said that his "non-existent" of Canadian criminal law led him to make those dreadful remarks, noting that his practice has mainly focused on contracts and bankruptcy cases. The judge has since apologized after undergoing sensitivity training.

A Notice of Response from the CJC reads: "[Camp] has undergone counseling and training with [a] Superior Court Justice...with a psychologist... and with an expert on the law of sexual assault...with a view to interrogating his beliefs and improving his understanding of the law, the social context of sexual violence and the psychological impact of sexual assault."
