Actual rape, lying about a rape, banging chicks passed out, being an all around sexual predator or sexual pervert (not the good kind).

If there is evidence that she is a prostitute, you think her story is credible? Yes, and no, about the penalties of alleged rape and rape. Rape is a more serious offense and should be treated accordingly. Alleged rape should be viewed on a case by case basis. For example, the attached article about the prostitute who allege rap b/c the 2 Johns didn't pay her, her case should be viewed differently than the case with the prostitute who allege rap from the magician. In my view, the magician case--the prostitute should be more seriously penalized than the 2 Johns case.

For me, I don't worry about, I have never even thought about it.

First, I would not try to defend this woman in any way.  But let's recall a few things accurately about her vs. the Duke lacrosse team.  I followed this adventure fairly closely and it reeked of some form of service (lap dance, escort, gang bang...who knows?) for money deal gone bad.  It looked like the 2 parties had different expectations and the accuser thought her best angle was accusing some guys of a rape for which there was inadequate evidence and an overly aggressive prosecutor who executed poor judgment at starting the wheels of justice grinding forward.  

Before we call the lacrosse team "innocent," let's recall that these guys were widely known as thugs on campus and in Durham, with police routinely called to out-of-control parties they hosted.   They were widely viewed as an ugly part of the university, no matter how successful their teams were.  While this did not justify them being (apparently) falsely accused of rape, let's not pretend these were poor little boys picked on by this evil woman.   They were rich, spoiled brats who did little to protect their own reputations and gave the wrong people (police and DA) a reason to dislike them.

Did they deserve to be accused, arrested, arraigned, and a trial started for a rape if they did not commit one?  Of course not.  But pretending they were innocent victims is equally inaccurate.

Words you can't understand doesn't make their point less valid.

Who's really an assclown? The person who brings a valid issue to the forum, or the idiot that brings nothing but a stupid catchphrase like assclown alert?

That movie certainly opened up my eyes to some bad things....

Regardless.... a Provider will NEVER know or have a clue of what my actual net worth is... EVER... Not that anybody could ever figure it out because of what I do to protect my ASSets... that includes multiple Attorneys that can't even figure it out.

False rape charges generally have something in common.... the targets were perceived to have money and IMO... it was their own damn fault in this money hungry society.

Making 150K plus are rich targets.  What would you do if she says: "give me a couple of thousand or I charge rape?"

Caught stealing by the guys, so they cried rape.

Are you talking about "The Lincoln Lawyer" or what?

Just a tip.... to respond to a specific comment on a thread.... all you have to do is hit the "Quote" button so we know what you are writing about.

Lincoln Lawyer, I'd say yes - that is what I am referring to. But then again, I'm sober, so what do I know.

Thanks for clarifying....

I'll have to check out the book... Loved the story behind the movie.

Remember when Al Sharpton swooped in on the Tawana Brawley affair? Brawley was never raped but the public and the Criminal Justice system were.

Just doing my job. Please carry on. eom

Interesting question! But purely hypothetical since neither of those persons you mentioned were in the thread!
