Eleanor Williams jailed for eight and a half years after rape and trafficking lies - "A woman has been jailed for eight and a half years after being found guilty of lying about being raped and trafficked by an Asian grooming gang, and making false rape claims against a series of other men. Eleanor Williams, 22, from Barrow-in-Furness was convicted in January of nine counts of perverting the course of justice... Her claims went viral during lockdown in May 2020 when she posted photographs of herself on Facebook covered in shocking bruises, with a black eye and a partially severed finger. She said she had been beaten and made to attend “sex parties” by “evil yet clever” Asian men, mostly Pakistani business owners. The allegations soon spread far beyond Cumbria and sparked a global solidarity campaign, Justice for Ellie, with more than 100,000 Facebook members. It had its own line of merchandise, featuring a purple elephant, and prompted rallies all over the UK, amid allegations of a police cover-up. Cumbria police recorded 151 crimes linked to the case in 2020, including malicious communications and harassment, as well as criminal damage and public order offences. Hate crimes tripled in Barrow that summer... Despite the focus on Asian groomers, by the time Williams made her Facebook post, she had been charged with multiple counts of perverting the course of justice. These included making false rape claims against three young white men, one of whom, Oliver Gardner, simply had the misfortune to ask her for a light in the street. Another, Jordan Trengove, spent 73 days in prison on remand after she falsely accused him of raping and drugging her at knifepoint. But Williams reserved her wildest allegations for a Barrow businessman, Mohammed Ramzan, known locally as Mo Rammy. Ramzan, now 43, told Preston crown court he had only met Williams once, briefly, at a family party. Williams said he was in fact the head of an international grooming gang, who first had sex with her aged 12 or 13, and then trafficked her and dozens of other girls around north-west England and abroad. Trengove, Gardner and Ramzan all said they tried to kill themselves as a result of being falsely accused... Williams had six mobile phones she used to create fake identities, and manipulated the Snapchat accounts of real men she had met – via the dating app Tinder, or subscribers to her account on OnlyFans, the erotic photo-sharing site – to make them look like they were Asian abusers... Williams gave police a list of 60 girls, half from Cumbria and half from elsewhere, who she said had been pimped out by Ramzan’s gang. But when police knocked on the girls’ doors they were met with blank faces. One of them, Chloe (not her real name), told the Guardian of her confusion at being confronted with the suggestion she had been groomed and abused with Williams, who was in the year above her at Walney school in Barrow... Chloe was as shocked as everyone else in Barrow when she saw Williams’ Facebook post in May 2020. She still struggles to believe her injuries were self-inflicted, as a forensic pathologist concluded they were, with a hammer Williams bought from Tesco a few days earlier. Chloe bought a Justice for Ellie T-shirt and joined several solidarity protests. “Everyone had something of Justice for Ellie. Everyone. And if it wasn’t on you, it was on your car or on the front of your house.” She says she feels “stupid” to have joined the rallies for someone who made up so many lies. “It got very nasty very quickly.” Trengove had “rapist” spray-painted on the side of his house. Ramzan received more than 500 death threats and had to leave Barrow for months. A reporter from the local Mail newspaper also left the town temporarily on police advice after receiving dozens of threats in response to a report she wrote about Williams’ first court appearance. Indian restaurant owners in the town repeatedly had their windows smashed after a list circulated on Snapchat purporting to show businesses complicit in Williams’ abuse. One Muslim restaurateur, who asked not to be named, said he lost at least £80,000 worth of custom after being named on the list. Orders dropped from 70-80 a night to two or three, and he was pursued down the street by people on skateboards who used the P-word and sprayed beer in his face. During Williams’ sentencing hearing at Preston crown court, Judge Altham asked if the prosecution was asking him to sentence on the basis that the offences were motivated by racial hatred. Jonathan Sandiford KC said no, noting the jury had heard evidence of Williams’ “affectionate and emotional” relationship with at least one Asian man."

Regret Isn’t Rape - "“Not guilty.” There are no finer words for a criminal defense attorney to hear – nor for the defendant, of course. So when we received the “not guilty” verdict on July 27, 2018, our faith in our country’s criminal justice system was reaffirmed. Our client was Michael Williams, represented by our managing partner David Eldridge, a former University of Tennessee Knoxville football player, who along with his teammate A.J. Johnson were indicted for aggravated rape charges nearly three and a half years ago after a woman claimed both men raped her during a victory party on Nov. 16, 2014. As a result of the accusation, Johnson and Williams were suspended from the team less than 48 hours after the party and never played for Tennessee again. Johnson had been a star linebacker, and Williams was a starter in the secondary. The thing is, there was not enough evidence that a crime had taken place. The prosecution did not introduce any forensic evidence, there no eyewitness testimony to corroborate the alleged rape, nor any other physical evidence to support the charges, let alone sufficient to convince a jury beyond a reasonable doubt. Further, there were a number of inconsistencies between what the woman said in court and what she had previously told investigators. There were also significant inconsistencies between how she and her friend described the events before the alleged rape took place. The prosecution did not preserve the alleged victim’s and her friends text communications or social media data, and as a result that information was lost forever. We also learned as a result of our efforts to obtain this information that she and her friend, a witness for the prosecution had both replaced their phones around the same time. We argued that the woman had consensual sex with both men at the same time, and then claimed it was rape after she quickly realized all there were going to learn that she had had sex with two guys at the same time. Once she made the claim of rape, her allegation was like a snowball rolling down a hill, getting bigger and with more momentum, each time was called upon the repeat the false claim – first to her friends, then to the responding officer, then to the investigators and so on. She regretted it, so we also reminded the jury that regret isn’t rape."
A lot of people got very upset when I pointed out that not all rape allegations were equal
Woman admits lying to police about being raped, sexually assaulted by colleagues - "A woman who had consensual sex with two of her colleagues later lied to the police that she had been raped and sexually assaulted. Siti Junaidah Azahar, 22, pleaded guilty on Wednesday (Sep 20) to one count of giving false information to a public servant, with a second similar charge to be considered in sentencing... She said she had lied as she wanted to leave the hotel room but did not have money with her. As she was unable to get home, she sent a text message to her cousin, lying that three men did something to her, so that her aunt would book her a Grab ride home. After this, her aunt booked her the Grab ride, but also accompanied her to lodge a police report."
Woman, 22, gets jail for falsely reporting rape to police after quarrel with boyfriend - "Upset over a quarrel she had with her boyfriend, Zhang Lutian called the police late in the night, claiming that she was injured and he was preventing her from leaving. On arrival, officers were told by Zhang that she had been sexually assaulted by her partner, which led them to deploy even more officers to the scene. The accusation and others that she made turned out to be false and Zhang officially withdrew them slightly a month after the incident. The 22-year-old was on Monday (Oct 2) sentenced to five weeks’ jail after pleading guilty to one count of providing false information to a public servant... She said that the incident happened barely a few weeks after she turned 21, adding that her “cognitive ability” and awareness of the seriousness of the offence “was still immature”... She said that she suffered from severe depression and anxiety, which added to her emotional state when making the police report. When asked by Senior District Judge Ong Hian Sun if she had any evidence of her mental condition, Zhang said that she had wanted to return to China to get a medical report because she could not afford to seek psychiatric treatment here."
‘This will forever change who I am’: Ashely Jansen acquitted - "For Ashley Jansen, proving her innocence in court came with little relief after living under the cloud of a false sexual assault allegation for more than a year. Jansen, who lives in Northumberland County, was arrested in September 2022 and accused of sexually assaulting a student in 2018 when she was working as an educational assistant (EA) at a Clarington school. Jansen was fully acquitted of the charges in an Oshawa courtroom on Nov. 24, but says the verdict doesn’t negate the trauma her and her family have been through since Children's Aid Society knocked on her door in the summer of 2022 and informed her she could not be in the house with her children. “We didn’t even know what the allegation was for another two weeks,” said Ashley’s husband, Ken Jansen. “They extracted her from our lives and all they would tell us was that there was ‘an active investigation.’” From there began 15 months of “pure hell” for the family, according to the couple, which included Ashley losing the dream job she had started after leaving the EA profession in 2019, as well as facing judgments and gossip in the community... It was an ordeal that the Jansens should never have had to endure, according to a ruling from the bench by the Hon. Peter Tetley, presiding judge, on Nov. 24. The judge pointed to several inconsistencies in the complainant’s version of events, including describing the room the alleged incident occurred as having a locked door when it did not, not accurately remembering many details of the incident, changing their statement several times, as well as the complainant’s history of violent and abusive behaviour, as issues that should have led to further investigation. “The crown’s case consisted solely of testimony provided by the complainant,” he explained. “The characterization and factual considerations might reasonably have been expected to call for a careful, impartial, comprehensive investigative response to independently confirm certain aspects of the allegation that could be subject to confirmation or verification. Unfortunately, that did not occur despite the foreseeable consequences of this complaint in relation to the defendant, consequences that included loss of employment, loss of reputation in the community, restrictions to the defendant’s ability to care for her own children, compromises to the defendant’s mental health and well-being and marital stress... The nightmare is far from over for the Jansens, who are dealing not only with the financial fallout of more than $200,000 in legal fees, but also the lasting trauma on the family. “We went to a parade last weekend and when my three-year-old saw the police she started crying saying they were going to take mommy away,” Ken recalled, noting the impact has been similar on the rest of the couple’s five children. “We’re really, really having a difficult time with how this was allowed to happen,” Ken said, noting the victim had assaulted Ashley in the past and made multiple threats to other staff members while being restrained during violent outbursts, saying that they would “tell someone you touched me.” “It’s inhumane what they were allowed to do. My wife’s life is destroyed, our family’s life is destroyed,” he continued, noting both Ashley’s former union and the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board not only did not provide any assistance throughout the ordeal, but several school staff members testified that they were specifically instructed by superiors not to speak to police on the matter... Ken credits a Durham investigator hired by the family for bringing the truth to light by conducting an investigation he believes should have been completed by police, including talking to staff, visiting the location of the allegations and more.” Damn judge who believes in rape myths! Doesn't he know that trauma means victims can't remember details and become violent, and we should believe victims unconditionally? He is double raping the victim by putting him through all this instead of convicting the accused just on the victim's say so!
Toronto city councillor falsely accuses Doug Ford of threatening Pfizer head with sexual assault - "A Toronto city councillor is standing her ground after accusing Premier Doug Ford of threatening to sexually assault a Pfizer CEO. Councillor Kristyn Wong-Tam tweeted on Tuesday, "Premier threatens to sexually assault someone, if he doesn't get what he wants." Her statement is in reaction to Premier Ford sharing his frustration with Pfizer, which has delayed shipment of the COVID-19 vaccine to Canada. "I would be up that guys ying-yang so far with a firecracker he wouldn't know what hit him," said the Premier in relation to the Pfizer CEO."

Father acquitted of all charges of raping 12-year-old daughter, sexually abusing her - "A man who mounted an "all-or-nothing" defence by denying all 13 charges which include sexual abuse and rape levied against him by his biological daughter was fully acquitted by the High Court.. Justice Valerie Thean went through the details of each charge to explain why she found the evidence of the daughter inconsistent and not "unusually convincing" enough to warrant convictions. The girl's evidence did not cohere - what she said in court pertaining to dates and what sort of acts had happened differed at points from what she said in police statements, to her school counsellor and her psychiatrist... The girl also gave conflicting answers as to when a sex toy was first used on her. At first she said it could have been when she was in Primary 5, but this was inconsistent with her accounts to a psychiatrist and school counsellor respectively. Justice Thean said there was little reason for the girl to provide different dates to the psychiatrist and school counsellor, who both questioned her on the same day. At trial, the prosecution obtained receipts to show that the two sex toys were bought online and delivered only on Aug 20, 2019. This was well after the dates the girl used, and no evidence was adduced to suggest her father had any other sex toys, said the judge."
Father denies raping 12-year-old daughter; testifies about her alleged lies, self-harm behaviour - "he used to punish his daughter by caning her if she misbehaved. He would also scold her and confiscate her phone, which she was first given in Primary 1. His lawyer then brought him through several incidents where his daughter purportedly lied. When the girl was in Primary 1, she purportedly pushed a boy and her teacher called the girl's mother about this. "When we confronted her, she actually denied until we told her the teacher has called us, then she told us what happened," said the man. On another occasion, he and his wife saw the girl poking her brother's head and pushing it against the bed on closed-circuit television (CCTV). When they talked to her about it, she denied it until they told her that they had seen everything on the CCTV camera... At a parent-teacher meeting when the girl was in Primary 5, the teacher told the man and his wife not to cane their daughter... The accused said the mention of the caning was significant because his wife had threatened their daughter, saying that she would be caned twice per mark if she scored anything short of 90 marks. After the meeting, the accused questioned his daughter and she denied telling her teacher about the caning threat. "That's where I asked her - if you didn't share this, why will the teacher bring this up? That's where she told me, yes, she did share this with her teacher," the man said. He also said his daughter was in a choir. On one occasion, he went to school a bit earlier to pick her up and saw her with a friend at the side of the school, appearing jumpy. "I asked - I thought now is during choir, why are you all here? She said they are having a 15-minute break," said the man. Feeling something amiss, he got his wife to check with the teacher if their daughter had attended choir, and the answer was no. He said this was not his daughter's first time skipping choir. When he fetched her home that day, he questioned her but she denied skipping the co-curricular activity. "I told her that, look, your mother has already called the choir teacher and we know that you didn't attend choir. That's when she told me she skipped choir and she was complaining about the choir teacher," said the accused. He said he and his wife changed their daughter's phone from a Samsung model to a Nokia phone when the girl was between Primary 1 and Primary 2. "We did this because we found out that she was accessing adult materials," he claimed. "By changing phone, Nokia phone is 2G, no Internet access, so she can't access any of this material."... He also denied sexually assaulting her in a storeroom. He said the storeroom was filled to the brim with items and he did not ask anyone to help him in the storeroom because the things inside were very heavy. "Can two people go inside?" asked Mr Tiwary. "No," answered the accused, saying he did not think that even one person could enter."
Of course, someone claimed that she lied because of the physical punishment. Might as well say any discipline would make a child lie, so you shouldn't do it
Pennsylvania Woman Lied About Man Attempting to Rape and Kidnap Her Because He Looked 'Creepy,' Gets Him Jailed for a Month - "Anjela Borisova Urumova, 20, identified as a Bristol Township resident, has now been charged for lying about the attack. Bucks County District Attorney Jennifer Schorn's office said that Urumova falsely accused Daniel Pierson, 41, of pulling her pants down and striking her outside of a Redner's supermarket in Middleton Township on April 16. Pierson went on the face felony charges and spent exactly 31 days behind bars before charges were dropped last Friday and he walked free, the DA said, noting that neither surveillance footage nor Urumova's iPhone corroborated her claims."

Fausses accusations de viol | Condamnée à payer 200 000 $ pour de « terribles » allégations - "Tanya Zajdel, une ancienne infirmière, a utilisé tous les moyens de communication à sa disposition pour dénoncer un supposé viol collectif orchestré par Kenneth L. Herman, un Américain de passage dans la métropole québécoise en 2015. Elle a notamment inondé les réseaux sociaux de ses accusations, les a transmises à l’employeur de M. Herman et a même autoédité un livre mis en vente sur Amazon... M. Herman a vécu le « cauchemar des cauchemars » dans la foulée de sa visite à Montréal : il a perdu son emploi et a passé plusieurs années à « se sentir comme un paria », écarté par des amis et des voisins. Il avait « une réputation étincelante dans l’écosystème technologique de New York » avant cette affaire... Selon sa page LinkedIn, elle offre des « thérapies de reconnexion » en lien avec les traumas passés... Mme Zajdel a témoigné qu’elle avait rapidement commencé à avoir des flash-back dans les jours suivants, selon lesquels Herman « et ses amis l’ont droguée et brutalement violée ». Elle dépose ensuite une plainte au Service de police de la Ville de Montréal (SPVM), dont l’enquête démontrera que la présumée victime se contredit et que ses souvenirs sont incompatibles avec la réalité : une caméra de surveillance montrait que le duo était seul dans la chambre d’hôtel et des données de géolocalisation disculpaient totalement les amis de M.

UP Woman Jailed For Exact Period Man She Falsely Accused Of Rape Served - "A district court in Uttar Pradesh's Bareilly sentenced a woman to four years and five months in jail for filing a false case of rape against a man, recanting her statement and turning hostile during the trial. She was also fined ₹ 5.88 lakh for robbing the man of earning opportunities during the time he was in jail as an undertrial. The court came down heavily on the woman over the fake case and said, "The real victims have to suffer due to the actions of such women. This is a very serious situation for the society. It is objectionable to use the police and the court as a medium to achieve one's objective. Women can't be allowed to attack the interests of men for unfair advantage." In 2019, the mother of the survivor, then 15 years old, filed a case of kidnap and rape against one Ajay, alias Raghav. Ajay, 21 years old then, worked with the teen's sister at a jagrata company and would often visit their home. Soon, he became friends with the 15-year-old as well. In her complaint to the police, the teen claimed Raghav drugged her with spiked prasad, took her to Delhi, locked her up in a room, and raped her"

Little back story. I do contract work for an international company, an IA officer. (internal affairs) I hunt down people committing fraud, selling company secrets, looking to quit and take proprietary information with them etc. Most of the times these people I catch are put into an interrogation style room while I review numbers, files, emails, testimony (think the accountant, but I'm no Ben Affleck or super agent) this room is filmed. It is not announced yet it has a small sign on the door saying this room is mic'd and video recorded, yet I still get accused of sexual harassment even though it's recorded from 6 different angles and a high def microphone. Today I was pulled into my three hundredth Sexual harassment inquiry in a 5 year contract. It is company policy to review every complaint. And we usually laugh at the ridiculous excuses and reasons given. and out of the 274 of them were women who thought by claiming harassment they would some how dodge a charge. The most common excuse for doing it by far 217 of them was "because of the glass ceiling I can't advance so I'm taking what is mine.. so tonight im go ng to celebrate and watch a few reels of the most ludicrous excuses ive ever heard.

PA 911 operator fired after accusing boss of sexual harassment despite their alleged years-long affair - "Maille Russell Bonsall, 40, was fired by the County on February 28th according to the Philadelphia Inquirer after county officials found that she had been illegally recording conversations with her superiors, even those she accused of retaliating against her for the sexual harassment lawsuit. The outlet reported that Bonsall accused her supervisor former county emergency services director Tim Boyce of “unwanted verbal, physical and sexual harassment during and after work hours,” and masturbating in her presence in his office. She alleged that Boyce made her feel unsafe at the office after she reported this, ignoring her and blocking her access to systems required for her role... County authorities responding to Bonsall’s lawsuit disputed her claims and stated that sexually explicit texts and nude images the two sent to each other using their county-issued cell phones revealed a “longstanding romantic relationship” lasting for years. Citing this evidence they asserted that there was no evidence to suggest that Boyce’s advances were unwelcome to Bonsall and pointed to texts in which she repeatedly professed her love for him. Investigators also discovered texts in which Bonsall told Boyce that she was high at work after using marijuana on the clock, had reportedly altered her own timecard, and refused to cooperate with the investigation... Boyce has plead not guilty and denied any wrongdoing."
