A student has described going through “mental torture” after a rape case against him was thrown out in court because police had failed to hand over more than 40,000 messages from his accuser.
Liam Allan, 22, faced up to ten years in jail charged with six counts of rape and six counts of sexual assault against a young woman over a 14-month period that began when he was 19.
The criminology student at Greenwich University had spent nearly two years on bail and three days in Croydon Crown Court when the trial was stopped in a dramatic fashion after it emerged police officers had failed to hand over evidence that proved his innocence.
The alleged victim had claimed she did not enjoy sex, while Mr Allan claimed it was consensual and she was acting maliciously because he refused to see her after he returned to university.
Now, the judge has called for an inquiry at the “very highest level” to understand why police failed to hand over critical evidence including 40,000 messages from the accuser to Mr Allan and friends.

Lucky man.
But ... but ... women never lie about this stuff.
Interesting the victim, Liam Allan, is named but the perpetrator is not.
Well whaddayaknow? An honest prosecutor more interested in justice than another scalp for his belt...Will wonders never cease?
Interesting the victim, Liam Allan, is named but the perpetrator is not.
Yep
Also name the law enforcers who were Nifonging this man.
“.... Jerry Hayes, took over the case one day before the trial began and ordered police to hand over records ...”
Think one of Mueller’s turds would put honesty and ethics over a win?
so will they prosecute the false accuser?
I had to testify in a rape case. Turned out the “victim” had sent the “rapist” a couple of hundred texts , lots of them with her asking him to have sex with her.
Poor guy was looking at about 10 years in prison.
Having sex with a crazy woman is never a good idea, as this man learned.
How do buttholes like this sleep at night?
Glad it didn’t drive him to suicide before this turnaround.
It’s possible that nobody ever bothered looking at the damn texts after requesting and receiving them. So many lazy can’t be bothered to do their actual jobs types filling government positions.
The Supreme Court invented broad prosecutorial immunity in 1976. Prosecutors can recruit false witnesses, have huge personal interests in the case, can lie, and lie to witnesses, and they are immune from legal action. AS long as this happens before a trial, they are immune.
The Supreme Court ruled this to be so.
“Firming up what had long been held as common practice, the U.S. Supreme Court in 1976 ruled in Imbler v. Pachtman that prosecutors cannot face civil lawsuits for prosecutorial abuses, no matter how severe.”[1]
“How do buttholes like this sleep at night?“
Because nothing ever happens to them.
