As someone who is most strongly against sexual assault in any form (I would like to vote for rapists without any sedation), I think it’s time for people who falsely accuse others of sexual assault to receive heavier fines.
It is a disgusting and outright evil to falsely accuse someone of such a barbaric crime for revenge or any other reason. It’s also a big slap in the face to real victims.
When these situations come up on social media or on the blogs, the noise after the initial accusation is so much louder than when the accusation is false. Unfortunately, the aftermath of this is that you have an innocent person with an irreversible reputation.
How many blogs make sure they correct their original story?
As a mother of two boys, being taught the importance of consent, I thought about how harmful a false accusation can be to them (it can be God forbid) Lastly, could people accuse someone anonymously of sexual assault? ”
