| Alkibiádēs said: The percentage of false reports in sexual harassment cases is very low (you can read some studies on it if you don't believe me, google is your friend), so this is most likely real as well. Why would anyone put this kind of attention on himself if it wasn't true? It's not like he has anything to win here if it is indeed a false accusation (there's no court case and he hasn't filed one).. |
That's true and false. For a rape accusation to be considered a false rape accusation by the fbi, the accuser would have to be caught falsifying it and arrested for it to be counted statistically. Since the accusation is based mainly on the word of the accuser, it's very difficult to do that because you would have to catch them in a lie with some kind of physical evidence that contradicts what they said. Rape accusations on colleges are handled by the colleges in kangoroo courts and rarely go to police. Any falisified reports in those case aren't counted in these stastics either. There's no accurate rough estimates around on false accusations.
