About that stuff from the Crown Prosecution Service you see Feminists spreading around

So...because they rarely prosecute false allegations, they hardly exist? Funny how none of their case studies involve cases where an innocent man went to jail.

The statistic that is never captured is the number of reports that are dismissed by police as being obviously false, but are not recorded because they never become an official complaint. It is said that police deal with a barrage of obviously false reports (up to 80%), but this is never counted in official statistics for purely political reasons.

Didn't see this mentioned anywhere (apologies if it was), but another difference between the UK and the USA is that in Britain false rape accusers are actually prosecuted once in awhile. You can check the tabloids for many examples.

I don't think this is a particularly good article frankly, it simply repeats a lot of past problems and accusations levelled against Britain's prosecution service in order to attempt to discredit a recent report they issued which claimed false rape accusations were 'rare'.

The fact is that we don't really know what a false rape accusation IS; is it a case were someone has maliciously made a false accusation, resulting in prosecution (the CPS's definition), where someone has made an accusation believing it to be rape but a jury says it isn't, where someone makes an allegation of rape but no-one is charged and there's no evidence it's true, but no evidence it isn't, or when someone is found guilty but later exonerated of rape....etc etc.

My personal reading is that 10-15% of rapes are malicious allegations, 20-25% are when someone's consented to sex but one partners done something the other feels uncomfortable with, 10-15% are morning after regret and the remainder are what we'd all consider to be rape with various levels of alcohol-fuelled nonsense involved in every category.
