False Sexual Assault Allegations & How to Avoid Them

Military Law News Network: False Sexual Assault Allegations & How to Avoid Them. In this episode, criminal defense attorneys Tim Bilecki and Michael Waddington discuss avoiding being falsely accused of sexual assault.

A false accusation of rape happens when a person says they have been raped but when in reality, no rape has occurred.
False rape or sexual assault allegations–believe it or not, these happen a lot more than the general public would like to believe. And, quite frankly, it’s a situation for which no one can adequately prepare. If you’ve been falsely accused of sexual assault, you need to start protecting yourself. Find a criminal defense attorney as soon as you suspect you may be investigated.
Most people in this scenario believe that since they didn’t do anything wrong, the court will find them innocent, or they may not even need to go to trial over it.
It’s also natural to want to tell “your side,” thinking you’ll be able to clear up any “confusion” by enlightening the police with the truth.

Individuals suspected of making a false accusation of rape may be charged with the civil crime of "wasting police time" or the criminal charge of "Perverting the Course of Justice." Over a five-year period ending in 2014, a total of 109 women were prosecuted for crimes related to making false accusations of rape.

What is considered a false allegation?
A false accusation is a claim or allegation of wrongdoing that is untrue and/or otherwise unsupported by facts. False accusations are also known as groundless accusations or unfounded accusations or false allegations, or false claims.
