What a bitch! She won’t be charged as it may may ‘stop others in similar situations from coming forward.’
She is also an attention whore, why fess up if you know you could be charged? Perhaps she felt that guilty.15 years is enough to make me hate anyone, but I don’t have children so I dunno.
That’s the best reason I’ve ever seen for disowning your kid. I don’t know what I would do in that situation (my daughter is 1), and I’d rather not dwell on it.
Fuck, that sucks.

That is some bullshit. How about making the point of “it may stop others in similar situations from lying about sexual assault.” What she did is slap in the face of real child victims,imo.

Yeah, wouldn’t it be desirable to stop people in similar situations from coming forward?

Excellent reading comprehension skills. Bravo.

I bet serious backlash and accusations of sexism are coming her way…she was the prosecutor on the dad’s case.
How did this guy get convicted in the first place? Who the fuck was his lawyer
Not sure what they could do as far as prosecuting her anyways. She was a minor when she said this happened. Unless maintaining the lie into adulthood is illegal as well. Really a shitty situation all around.

Yeah, that’s a load of crap, she should be charged. I think lying about a crime should be discouraged…This dude spent 9 years in prison probably getting raped for real, all because she didn’t want to be disciplined at home. If I was the dude, I’d be suing me a state.

…so, they locked a grown man in jail based on the word of a child…based on what evidence?

EXACTLY how did a jury of his peers and the prosecution convict this guy with enough evidence that he went to jail for this long? It just makes no fucking sense.

You suggesting that a child might be looking for attention? Thats nonsense!

The article implies that religion was key in her admission:

A public defender was his lawyer. Sadly, I’m not sure it matters who the lawyer is when charged with a crime against a minor or a child.

I have a feeling you are right. A minor can manipulate the U.S. legal system if they put enough time and effort into doing so.

There wasn’t any evidence that the father did anything to her, but this is how he was convicted by a jury of 12 people who might have room temperature IQ:

Are you kidding me? It makes perfect sense. The jury listed to the prosecutor, police, and a cute lil girl all tell a story, so he must be guilty, cause they dont charge people who arent guilty.
Its the just-us system my friend, and stories like this are very common.

His lawyer fought like hell for him, but when a kid tells a story, juries eat it up, no mind the truth.
I have to agree. This shouldn’t even shock anyone here. The media will always side with the child or the woman first in an abuse story…almost no matter what. Call it white knight syndrome or whatever, but that is how a whole jury can convict a man “just in case”.
What we need to crack down on are false accusations and the destruction of entire lives just because of the accusation alone. It almost doesn’t matter if you raped someone or not once someone accuses you of it. Your name is still shit.
