I couldn't agree more. She is the ultimate scumbag and clearly did not have a good upbringing...

Quantavius Brown was hoping to get a degree in accounting and business management when he was 21 years old. That all changed the night of August 3, 2018.
Brown was drinking at a local bar in Copperhill, Tennessee, when he met up with a woman he had met two years earlier, an acquaintance of his then-girlfriend. The two had previously been involved in a court case, and got into an argument about it, WRCB reported.
Later, the woman – who has not been named in media reports because female accusers are always protected, even if the accusation was false – told the Polk County Sheriff’s office that Brown raped her at her home after he forced his way inside. Police noted injuries on her face and a scratch on her neck as evidence of the alleged attack.
Brown was picked up by police officers and taken in for questions. He was never able to leave the Polk County Detention Center.
For the next three years, Brown awaited trial on charges of aggravated burglary, rape, and “retaliation of past action,” WRCB reported. His family was unable to afford the $500,000 bond to get him out of jail, and his trial was delayed due to the pandemic and changes in legal counsel.
His third court-appointed attorney, Tim Hewitt, got to work quickly.
“There wasn’t much work that was done before so immediately I realized we needed an investigator in this case,” Hewitt said, according to WRCB.
The investigator hired by Hewitt quickly discovered that the woman’s landlord and her son, both of whom lived in the same building as the accuser, were home the night of the alleged attack and rape but had not been interviewed.
The landlord told the investigator that she heard Brown and the accuser talking quietly before her boyfriend burst into the apartment.
“Up until that point, all we had was the state’s side and the state’s side was this one woman who was willing to lie,” Hewitt told WRCB.
Hewitt was able to uncover additional evidence that the woman had lied about the rape. Forensic evidence showed no signs of rape. In addition, the landlord said the injuries on the woman’s face were older than police assumed.
Brown was acquitted at trial and finally freed from jail.
“I consider myself blessed that the truth did come out in the sense of that. Yeah, I do,” Brown told WRCB.
District Attorney General Steve Crump, whose office prosecuted Brown’s case, told the outlet: “I do disagree in this case with their judgment but I totally respect it and appreciate their service. They did what they thought was the right thing.”
The outlet also reached to Sheriff Steve Ross to try to learn when the evidence that showed Brown was innocent wasn’t discovered by deputies. Ross declined to comment and instead told the outlet to speak to Crump.
“I don’t know that it would have made a difference in terms of whether or not the case was brought or how the case was handled prior to it but obviously it [interviewing the landlord] was something that had to be taken to account once it was received by us,” Crump said.
It should be noted that Brown is black, while his accuser was not, in a county with a 0.7% black population, though race was never mentioned in the case file.
After being released, Brown took a landscaping job and is hoping to return to school. He and his attorney are trying to get his record expunged.
Oddly, that didn’t appear in my copy of the article until I force refreshed. Oh well.
It was stupid of him to go to her lodgings, but it doesn’t justify a false accusation of rape. Some of my IT work is house calls and I keep a stealthy camera running at all times when I’m alone with a female client/working alone on a female’s machine at her house - specifically because of earlier cases like this.
So far it’s saved my arse twice.
That is what I want to know. What are the legal penalties for the woman who made false charges? Anything?
I couldn't agree more. She is the ultimate scumbag and clearly did not have a good upbringing...
Oh, yes. I forgot about Jack Klugman.
A Detective and a Jazz musician; what an “Odd Couple!”
Quantavius may take serious umbrage at that assumption:
“Who you callin’ a F****t?”
What money? It’s all tied up in their mansions now. XiJinBiden needs to give BLM more money, doncha know? </sarc>
Even BLM wouldn’t go to Polk Co. TN.
We moved to this area, just outside of Polk Co., when I was a young teenager of 14 in the late 60’s.
Black people had been hung in Polk Co. for years before that just for being there after dark. They were found swinging from trees, under bridges, you name it.
There was a billboard as you entered the County that said “N****r, don’t let the sun set on your a** here”. I think, but I’m not sure, at that time the County was heavily Democrat. That sign was there for several years. It finally came down and there are some black families living there now but they didn’t grow up in the area.
It’s safe for black people now but this poor man is still lucky he survived being in jail there for three years especially for being accused of raping a white woman. I love Tennessee but even I rarely venture into Polk Co. and I’m white.
There are a lot of good people there now so sorry if I offended anybody that might live there. It does have a terrible racist past.
Q man better watch that temper?
Or, else he might end up back in jail.
Three fricking years! Our justice system is totally screwed up.........
It appears that, because he was Black, and was 'blessed' with such a name, EVERYBODY on the side of the State (po-po, investigators, Prosecutors, etc.) just ASSUMED he was guilt, so didn't bother to check things out. A LARGE cash settlement and a number of firings, seem in order, in addition to criminal charges against the female.
The article said that there was no forensic evidence of rape. How did she explain that?
More free advice:
Move to another county.
And Hillary Clinton walks free.
But she will never be president. Haha
But I digress.
She should be charged for false accusation/testimony and sentenced to 3 years in prison. Period.
District Attorney General Steve Crump is a real piece of work...
I would blame the prosecutors hoping for a win and a lame ass public defender who gets paid by the case and could not care less if his client is guilty or not.........

“I was accused of a sex crime once.”
I was accused of something called “domestic violence” once.(never date a communist from California)
The case got dropped. Always plead “not guilty” prosecutors hate courtrooms & love plea bargains.
I don’t mind being known as a women beater though.
Trump “beat” Clinton in 2016 and he’ll “beat” Harris in 2024.
the woman – who has not been named in media reports because female accusers are always protected, even if the accusation was falseThe DA is claiming that he was disappointed in the verdict, so her accusation has been proven to be false, simply not proven true. You really need solid evidence to accuse someone of making a false accusation, but likewise, a charge of rape should have more evidence than an accusation, especially when there was no forensic evidence of rape.Is this a law? What is stopping the Daily Wire from naming this disgusting criminal now?
Makes me feel better that the great-great-grandparents decided to move west from there back in 1854. Put the Mason-Dixon Line and Mississippi River to their back and never looked behind.
