She should be in jail
The Post reports:
A woman who accused her husband of rape, only for her story to be proven to be almost impossible, hasn’t been charged with making a false complaint or giving false evidence in court.
That’s despite her former husband being convicted of rape, and spending nearly two-and-a-half years in prison.
Why not? If it is proven she lied, she should be charged.
An inquiry found:
- The woman had been unclear and inconsistent in her account, and was uncooperative with authorities, including not preserving crucial corroborating evidence.
- Her accounts of the events and her drinking on the day of the alleged second rape, did not match her level of intoxication, with the woman having a blood alcohol level 2.5 times the legal driving limit when tested at 7.50pm in hospital that day.
- At the hospital, she asked for the morning-after pill, despite knowing her former husband had had a successful vasectomy. The woman said she had forgotten this.
- Photos of her legs taken the following day showed yellowing of bruises, indicating they couldn’t have been caused by the alleged assault.
- She gave “different false explanations” for her head injury, saying it occurred when she was pushed on to a bathroom window sill, but it was also consistent with her slipping and hitting her head while intoxicated.
- The cellphone evidence also led Kincade to conclude the woman wasn’t at home when she claimed Mr Z attacked and raped her, and Mr Z’s account was more reliable, she found.
He spent two years in jail because she lied, and she gets no consequence.
