1. She should get the same sentence the person she accused would have got if he was found guilty.

2. Enough women are sexually assaulted in this country so when someone lies about it, it hurts all victims.

3. The punishment for this needs to be EXACTLY the same as the one the guy she accused was facing.

4. these women made false sexual assault claims always get very lenient punishment compared to what their victims got.

5. I feel like lying about a sexual offence should itself be classified as a sexual offence that puts you on a register, other people have the right to know that you lie about this sort of thing.

   Hopefully any future partners will see this article and run a mile.

6. Good to hear, she makes a mockery of real victims. Hope she gets a sentence.

7. On one hand, I understand why it isn’t a crime to falsely accuse someone – we don’t want to stop genuine victims coming forward by scaring them with prosecution.

   On the other hand, what? Are men just supposed to suck it up and not recieve justice for the life changing consequences they have to deal with? Why is the justice system viewed as the victim (perverting the course of justice), and not the men who are actually victimised and tarnished for life?

   If this kind of dynamic existed the other way around, this would be used as a classic example of male privilage and toxic patriarchal masculinity.

8. It should be a given- you lie about assault, you get jailed. She could have destroyed that person’s life and it belittles us who have been raped.

9. Attention seeking. I doubt the ‘toddler saved me’ thing too, probably coached and set up.

   There’s an increasing number of people claiming to be victims of things these days it seems like.

10. I have to consider the whole Amazon medical episode was staged too.

11. My partner’s ex needs to be charged. She has accused everyone, even her own children—whom I care for full-time—of various things. They are literally children under 12. She has accused all of her exes, her father, and her brothers and sisters. I am constantly being harassed by the police and social services due to her false reports. However, when the children make allegations of her sexually abusing them, it gets ignored by the police. The only thing that happens is that she gets sectioned, and a few weeks later, she is released; then she starts all over again. Poor kids are going through their own version of ‘baby reindeer’—that’s how unwell this woman is—and no one does anything.

12. I got accused of something similar by my ex wife,lost my job over it never recovered from it, all bullshit and part of her ongoing way of stopping me seeing my kids.
    No protection from blatant lies

13. Good.

    People like this are vile. They damage the chances of action from reports made by legitimate victims, and they risk an innocent person having their life destroyed.

    The punishment should fit the crime. Try to ruin someone’s life with years in prison and a record – same thing should happen to you.

14. A man lied about me with that. It nearly destroyed my life and mental health. Fuck those people.

15. Another thing that “never happens” keeps happening

16. I wouldn’t be surprised if she also pretended to faint to get some attention from the Amazon driver. 

    This level of attention seeking is deranged and can lead to pretty dangerous stuff

17. Good. 100% deserved.

    I’ve sadly seen first hand how false accusations of this nature can destroy families, reputations and jobs way before it reaches court.

18. She’s not going to jail. No chance. She has kids. Heaven forbid a woman goes to jail when she has children. Suspended sentence incoming.

19. As an SA survivor, shit like this make me furious. She is scum.

20. Wonder where all the free speech absolutists are on this one.

    Isn’t she “free” to say what she wants about whomever she wants? Or is she justly facing consequences for her speech?

    Just as say, for an example here, if someone encourages others to set fire to a building with people in it, and people then set fire to that building should also face consequences?

21. Do you know how rapists experience violence in prison? Ladies, you know what to do….

22. No information on the accusation or why they now believe it was false, so I can’t comment on this particular case. Whilst it is really scary how a lie can ruin someone’s life, I am also very scared of situations where someone was genuinely raped then get prosecuted for allegedly lying about it. Not only having something so horrendous happen to you, but then being punished and suffering hatred from the public. So for many reasons I find myself hoping that she really did lie – that there was no rape, that the person accused can live freely, and that all the viciousness aimed her way isn’t at someone innocent
