    My molester got away with it. He abused 31 other kids before getting caught. He was 'proven innocent 30 times and only got 15 years for that 32nd kid that he got convicted for.

    I’ve run into him since his release, he tried to get me to tell the court that he didn’t do anything.

    I’ve known other victims.

    Look up the average number of victims before a predator is caught. Fake testimony is rare, predators getting away with their crimes is common.

    Go fuck yourself.

      I agree with you. Lots of people spitting nonsense in this thread and/or wildly ignoring basic statistical data. Almost feels like Twitter.

      Yeah so the guy who spent 6 years in jail for doing nothing should just keep suffering because you suffered too?

      I’m sorry for what you went through, nobody should ever need to, but that doesn’t give you the right to demand random other people also suffer just to make you feel better. Their lives matter too.

        I think they just misinterpreted my message. I don’t think op is that egoistic, but I dislike that they implied it that way; it makes it appear that the only way of repaying is to throw a random innocent civilian into prison.

        Also, op seems to drift off the main point of talk. Like ok, there is crime everywhere. However, this tread is dedicated for the crime of lying in court/society,aka false accusations. I just don’t understand op here.

          It happens every single time the discussion of false rape accusations happen; hell even one of my close friends has the same experience and reacts the same way.

          Any remote implication that an accused sexual assault perpetrator might not be guilty is just bombarded with stories like that, that their abuser wasn’t found guilty and that by daring to accept the fact that sometimes it actually is false, we’re directly attacking them and their experience.

      Everything up until your last statement was great.

      Then you effectively had to go and say the accuser is always right"

      Nice

          Uh, no? Because that never happened?

          That being said, i find it unlikely you’re capable of much more discussion than throwing insults, so you probably shouldn’t waste your time responding.

      I’m sorry but you seem to misinterpret my whole message. Where did I state about predators getting away with their crimes - those people who are definitely guilty?

      Also fake testimony is not rare, if you look about the place you will find more instances about it.

      In general, your message seems to invalidate people who are truly innocent - which is the main point of this article, and my message. So that last point you’ve made also applies to you.
