She is full of shit but the story sells. She will probably make a fortune selling her BS to Netflix.
No surprise she got treated like that, just look at the comments here so far.
>For many, Emma became a symbol of “rape culture” run amok, a young woman not only disbelieved but made into a criminal by a public out to defend the honor of its young men against a “loose” woman out to ruin their lives.
Not saying that it is the case for this instance, but it does happen. It’s scary to have your whole life destroyed based solely on allegations. My opinion is that these cases must be dealt with double the usual care.
EDIT:
>An Israeli journalist present at the hearing that fall day described her to The Times of Israel as disoriented and overwhelmed as she scratched at the skin on her chest and arms, listening and responding through a translator to court proceedings in Cypriot Greek. That same journalist described the presiding judge as particularly dour and “aggressive,” often interrupting and shouting at Emma and her lawyers.
Why on earth we still don’t have cameras inside court rooms like the US courts? Not only for this particular case, but for all other cases aswell. Also, police officers on duty should have cameras on them at all times.
Why oh why are interrogations not recorded on video in Cyprus? This would assure appropriate conduct during the interrogation process, which I’m sure would have had a distinct impact on this case.
