That’s OK..
If the prison insists on being paid for the bed and board...the man should sue the woman for the money...
I dont think the man should be charged for the bed and board but apparently they did so...

I don’t see anything in the article saying whether the woman was punished in any way for ruining this man’s life.
Kind of like the Duke Rape accuser.

If you look into where she lived in the past and there’s no record you know something changed and further investigating is warranted. Her name change is no excuse.

Vote for Hitlery for president, and this is just ONE of the problems you’ll have.

This is one more of a growing number of posts about once-great Britain that make me think this is the most f*d up country in the Western World. Yep, and unfortunately my own country tends to follow the UKs lead on pretty much everything.

We are definitely marching to the beat of the UK drummer. In every respect, from socializing our medicine to making all crime and criminals protected PC to shutting down all speech that isn’t pro-jihadist and pro-socialist. We’re not there yet, but we are definitely trending in those directions.

So, this House of Lords that denied relief . . . was . . . appointed mostly from former Labour politicians and stooges. In other words, it's socialism all the way down now in England, with no moderating body at all. In a similar way our 17th Amendment turned Senators representing states into vote & money grubbing three term congressmen representing the mob.

>>What about the woman? Did she go to jail? Get fined? Why arent they making her pay this?<<
That's the amazing part. She did this seven times.
>>Not only did Mr Blackwell not commit the crime, but the crime had never taken place.
It also emerged she was a serial accuser, having fabricated at least seven other allegations of sexual and physical assault against blameless men.
She kept changing her name and moving around, so police forces never realised they were dealing with the same woman. <<

I dont see anything in the article saying whether the woman was punished in any way for ruining this mans life.I'd be willing to bet any amount of money you care to name that nothing whatsoever will be done to this woman. She won't even be charge with a single count of perjury.
The exact same thing would happen here, so we Americans can't really be too smug.

Why the hell are the citizens expected to pick up the tab for this insane woman’s disgusting charade? She should be put in debtor’s prison for life to pay back this man.

Our only recompense as males is the privilege of pronouncing "Guilty" or "Not Guilty" on the dingbat female teachers who sleep with their male students.
