Are the tides finally turning on those that falsely claim ‘sexual assault’?

According to Arkansas Matters:

U of A Student Arrested for Lying About Sexual Assault

FAYETTEVILLE, AR (KNWA) – Police arrested 20-year-old Lindsey Sweetin Thursday for filing a false police report about a sexual assault she originally said happened in the Harmon Parking garage on the University of Arkansas campus.

According to a police report, on March 8, Sweetin’s brother called the University of Arkansas Police Department to report that his sister had been sexually assaulted in the garage on March 5.

When police interviewed Lindsey Sweetin, she told them when she was walking back to her car in the deck after class, a man she described as being between 50 and 60-years-old with gray hair approached her and asked if she had any jumper cables.

Sweetin told officers she told the man she couldn’t help, and at that point she said the man “grabbed her and put his hand up her shirt, and then pulled her towards him and put his other hand down her pants and touched her buttocks” and then the man “pushed her against the back of her car and put his hand down the front of her pants, touching her vagina.” Sweetin told officers she sprayed the man with pepper spray and got in her car and drove away.

After the interview, police reviewed video footage from the Harmon Parking Garage during the time that Sweetin said the incident happened. Detectives did not find any men in the video matching the description Sweetin provided them. Detectives also spoke to potential witnesses who were in the garage at that time, and they told officers they did not hear or see anything out of the ordinary.

On March 11, Detective Josh Bowen interviewed Sweetin again at UAPD. Detective Bowen asked Sweetin if she was telling the truth about the incident, and Sweetin said no. When asked why she would lie, Sweetin said she did see a man that matched the description she gave on Dickson Street and he scared her, but that the man never followed her into the Harmon deck.

Is this pic from her facebook page or what? Posing like this is sexually aggressive, and inviting problems.

The first clue was that she claimed it was a 60 year old man.

most 60 year olds I know wouldn’t have the energy to fight a 20 year old, and would have had to take a couple blue pills an hour before planning the rape.

Joking aside - its an extremely unlikely scenario

It is from the link I put up in post #7.

You can right click a graphic like that and copy the location to see its origin.

To me that picture seem quite modest compared to what you can see in most shopping malls and on the average college campus these days.

Just my humble opinion.

I know what you mean, but I don’t compare immodesty in degrees. That is an immodest pose.

This Hunting Ground movie is apparently an agenda piece. Has anyone seen it?

BTW, I tried to get this artsy college theatre to play “Mugabe and the White African” in 2011 with negative results.

If false accusation weren’t an eternal problem it wouldn’t be listed in the Ten Commandments.

Beauty does not protect one from being crazy or evil. Lots of messed up pretty girls out there.

Fits her apparent personality, does it not?

Actually, when I first saw the photo, I was reminded of someone on the potty—definitely unsexy. But I am a woman, so I guess it struck me differently.

The tide will turn only when the punishment for lying is equal or greater than what the punihsment for the actual crime that is lied about, receives.
