Convinced the women to lie? Not a chance. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like GH was some famous figure. In our tiny world maybe, in the grand scheme of things NO yeah there's no money in it or he wouldn't be suing YEA 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you believe that I have some swamp land to sell you. Why do you think DCI wants members to report wrong doing to DCI and not “keep it in the corps” ($1 to rb) Not to mention the appearance of a rigged investigation in an activity where appearance affect recruiting and fund raising. seriously where I work you first report abuse to immediate boss. If you don’t trust that there are channels to go outside of your organization. Same idea with yea.

Big reason why lot of abused women do not come forward. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to find an example of false rape accusers being convicted of perjury on Google just now and couldn't so would love it if you could enlighten me That's odd. I found quite a few such instances on Google with very little effort in a short period of time. That said, perjury charges may be uncommon in such cases and something prosecutors are often reluctant to pursue. However, perjury is far from the only repercussion that one faces for making a false accusation. In addition to other crimes they could be charged with, they could be subject to civil suits, their reputations ruined, careers affected, and so on. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried again to find something on Google and got this article instead. Unless you think thehill is some rape apologist rag. "Right now, accusers who lie about sexual abuse are criminally liable for filing a false report and perjury, as well as civil sanctions for defamation, but legal consequences rarely occur." https://thehill.com/opinion/civil-rights/411905-is-it-time-to-punish-deliberate-false-accusers?amp legally speaking women have little to nothing to lose by falsely accusing a man of rape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
