False Rape Accusation Research is Terrible

Here's by far the best report I know of on this.

https://www.ncjrs.gov/pdffiles/dnaevid.pdf In FBI DNA testing, about 25% of convicted rapists are proved innocent.

Also, your article kind of contradicted itself. It said the research is bad, but then said the Kanin study was pretty good. Another issue, it doesn't seem to mention the McDowell study.

McDowell CP. False allegations. Forensic Science Digest, Vol. 11, No. 4, December 1985

US Air force study confirms 60% of rapes to be false, a full 27% of the allegations were confirmed to be false because the woman admitted to making them up. And from http://www.ipt-forensics.com/journal/volume6/j6_2_4.htm

“The McDowell team did in fact address these questions in follow-up studies. They recruited independent reviewers who were given 25 criteria derived from the profiles of the women who openly admitted making a false allegation. If all three reviewers agreed that the rape allegation was false, it was then listed by that description. The result: 60% of the accusations were identified as false. McDowell also took his study outside the military by examining police files from a major midwestern and a southwestern city. He found that the finding of 60% held (Farrell, 1993, pp. 321-329)”

These days it's hard to publish anything on that, feminism and all that.

I was accused a thousand years ago when I was a young guy. Yet there is a group dedicated to stalking and harassing me. They destroyed everything and I don't see people the same way anymore.

There's been a large uptick of them doing this to others if you go to the anti- are we dating the same guy forums. They love to torture. Good luck.

Because the justice system is corrupted and not fair

If I was accused of something like this the only reasonable plan (after false conviction) is to kill myself I'm sure there are people who have done it and I feel bad for them makes you wonder how the person who falsely accused them in the first place is able to sleep at night
