It was the one-armed man...

Charges of rape and kidnapping have been dropped against a married father of two who got more than he bargained for during a romantic rendezvous in the mountains with a stripper.
David Jansen was arrested after a pizza deliveryman stopped by his remote rented cabin in the Tennessee Smoky Mountains and saw a woman tied up on the couch mouthing, "Call 911."
But Jansen claimed all along that the woman was his lover and that she was into bondage, his lawyers providing stacks of evidence that the two had been in a relationship for sometime.
After news of the arrest hit the media, the woman's history of filing false rape claims surfaced and her mother was interviewed saying that her daughter was a notorious liar.
The Sevier County District Attorney's Office agreed with Jansen, saying in a statement that "we could not obtain a conviction against Mr. Jansen nor would we try."
"As district attorneys our job is to seek justice not convictions," District Attorney James B. Dunn said in the statement. "Justice requires us to dismiss these charges based on the victim's credibility and other evidence."
Dunn's statement noted that the woman has been told about their decision and "she insists that her allegations are true.
"This office will not prosecute the victim," Dunn said in the statement "The evidence would not sustain a conviction for making a false report."
As for Jansen, he's just happy to be cleared.
"Mr. Jansen looks forward to resuming some level of normalcy in his life in hopes to move on as best as possible from this incident," his attorneys said in a statement. "As one might imagine, it has been costly on both a financial and emotional level."
But the damage is already done in many aspects. His wife filed for divorce...

I think this is just terrible! How do guys protect themselves from these kind of women? Document and film everything?
Stay away from lying whores in all events, but especially if you're married.
I would feel sorry for him except for the fact he was a married man and the woman involved was NOT his wife. He deserved what he got, IMO. Let's hope he learned his lesson about the costs of adultery.
“...especially if you’re married.”
There have been cases where that’s too late.
“okay, our safe word is ‘call 911’”
Should have gone with the Chinese carry out.
Finally, a wife with some sense! Politicians’ wives should take a lesson from her.
Maybe this guy will think twice before he cheats on his next wife... or maybe not.
I'm surprised he didn't become a Fugitive.
Man, if I got caught in a situation like this, I’d be begging the cops to lock me up. Jail would be safer than coming home to my wife.
Probably the last words I’d hear before leaving this life would be “Damn, I’m out of bullets.”
“He deserved what he got, IMO. Let's hope he learned his lesson about the costs of adultery.”
No, sorry. The deserved punishment for adultery is not being falsely accused of felony sex crimes that could result in a sentence of life in prison.
Try again.

LOL!
In response to those political wives standing next to their cheating husbands, my wife’s comments was that if something like that happened, she wouldn’t be standing next to me, she’d be standing over me.
Don't hook up with freaks.
LOL!
For people who don’t have the fear of God in them, the fear of going to the slammer for the rest of their lives to be raped by Bubba is a suitable substitute, IMO!

Where exactly was the romance?
So you think that homosexual rape is a good idea?

No but the fear of it might make people think twice before they do something that might get them in jail.
You said that homosexual rape was a “suitable substitute” for the fear of God.
The meaning of those words is that you think it is a good thing, at least in some (suitable?) circumstances.
I was always under the impression that rape - homosexual or otherwise - is intrinsically evil. But you appear to disagree, saying that it is a “suitable substitute” for something else.
