    I wasn’t complaining about the Lerhrman-Higgins outcome, only Larissa Waters’ asinine comment.

    There aren’t any actual cases where a false rape claim has been manufactured to exploit lack of evidence about the alleged perp’s alibi

    Any? You are very confidently wrong. Just Google it. eg here and here and here and here.

    My friend wasn’t even allowed to publicly defend himself against defamatory allegations of sexual misconduct which continued to be made with impunity. When he tried to raise her behavior at the IVO hearing he was told to shut up by the (female) magistrate because the hearing was about him not her.

    I should have mentioned that this was in Victoria which has recently changed to new laws which allow such abuse of process.
