With the government thrashing around to find ways of getting more rape
convictions, it does seem that lots of men might not be so lucky in
the future.

Yet the misandrist government shows no interest in protecting those innocent men who are maliciously accused.

And the evil slags sentence of one year seems a bit light, I would
have thought that four or five years would have been more appropriate.

I've said before that IMO the sentence for making a malicious false allegation should be the same as the sentence the falsly accused person would have received if the allegation had been true. In cases such as this, not only should she be gaoled for 4-5 years, she should also be put on the SOR for life - just as her victim would have been. AFAIAC, a false allegation of a sex offence is, itself, a sex offence.

Given the judge's comments -
"Every time a woman makes a false allegation of rape you let down the women that make true allegations and cause suspicion that another person is making it up.

"That is the evil of what you did - it undermines the whole process. This is a case where a message has to be sent out to everybody that false allegations of rape are insidious to a degree."

it's amazing he let her off with such a ridiculously light sentence.
I would hope the CPS can appeal the sentence and get it increased to something that reflects the seriousness of her crime.


And hopefully, as more and more of these cases crop up (and they will) the law is changed so that men accused of rape remain anonymous until they have been found guilty.

With people like Harman in the Government that is never likely to happen though.
