The vicious liar needs to pay the penalty, and then go to jail for life.

Even if we presume she tells the truth, the path traveled down beginning with her posting the accusation in public forum with little or no supporting evidence leads nowhere good.

The majority of people need to get this through their skulls. You cannot post allegations or accusations against other individuals in a public forum without great risk to ones self from a legal standpoint.

Even in non criminal issues you can be taken to task for statements you’ve made that others can construe as being a professional opinion or advice. Being a registered Professional Geologist and working in the environmental and geotechnical fields this has become pretty second nature to me. I’m very careful to couch statements such that they can’t be construed as an opinion or advise for a person or entity to rely on for taking or not taking actions.

It doesn’t matter, and the legal system definitely doesn’t care, how one “feels” about something. If you had something really happen to you horrible like this you need to consult with someone who really knows this stuff inside and out AND even get a second opinion. I can’t imagine there’s a lawyer alive who would have said “oh, this guy raped you 27 years ago? Yea, first thing let’s make sure you allege that and ruminate over it on a blog for a while”...
