I tend to agree with you on this. My son’s best friend was accused of rape by a female friend of theirs. Her boyfriend came and beat the crap out of his best friend. He was arrested, and after my son helped him get out of jail, we found out the rest of the story.
The female friend told her boyfriend a lie about being raped, because she didn’t want to get in trouble with him for going out socializing without him. Once it was sorted out, the girl confessed to the police what had happened. My son’s friend pressed charges of assault against the boyfriend, and if I’m not mistaken, the girl was also charged with filing a false police report. The young men are no longer friends with this girl or her boyfriend.
Good riddance!
Now, that’s a complicated story. Even after several readings, I’m not sure I have it straight.
