  1. A trained domestic violence mentor lying about domestic violence to get her partner in trouble.

    Then he went to prison, but she isn’t?

    This all seems really fair and I’m certain this is an isolated incident, no one would ever lie about that kinda stuff.

  2. Agree or disagree – this is why you have a generation of men hating women or think that women abuse power.

    And this injustice is the kind of shit that makes followers of the Andrew Tates of this world to constantly bang on about a man’s right over a woman – his followers or ‘Red Pillers” would eat this shit and say “See!”

    I dont know what needs to be done or by whom, but if we truly want an equal society AND prevent Toxic behaviour towards women, we need to campaign for more equal gender criminal, divorce and custodial sentencing.

    Maybe I’d like to see more women lead this conversation, because if men do it, a lot of mud gets thrown at the genuine ones, but the Andrew Tates of this world steal the narrative..

    Edit:

    Divorse and custody.

  3. 100 hours of community service for the £5,000 defrauded is £50 an hour. That’s before considering the impact on the actual victim. And they say crime doesn’t pay.

  4. I think I’m cases like this where ANYONE is found to be lying they should as a minimum swap places with the wrongly accused and reap the sentence the result of their lies afforded the other person.

  5. In America a Football player got lucky and was cleared of murder when a women he didn’t know was married he was seeing, sent her brother and friends to essentially go to kill him. He had to be put in jail and though he’s proven innocent of wrong doing, this woman walks free after she led a man to his death over her lies.

    These types of injustices are insulting to everyone.

  6. I wonder if anyone ever told him that statistically it is rare that anyone ever lies about things like this?

    Might make him feel better, surely.

  7. >He was arrested at work and subsequently charged with the offence of controlling coercive behaviour, and also later remanded in jail for two months and eventually lost his job with Surrey Police.

    >It was only ‘diligent’ detective work by his mother Elizabeth Bond trawling thousands of messages between them that led to his release from Winchester Prison, where he had spent 23 hours a day locked in a cell, and the Crown Prosecution Service immediately dropping the case against him

    Later the article describes all the thing she said. I can’t see the evidence against him, so was he incarcerated based on her words only?

  8. How did he even end up in prison in the first place without adequate evidence? There are various cases where the evidence is extremely compelling yet the perpetrators end up in prison, yet somehow this guy ended up there when it was just one person’s word against another?

  9. I wholeheartedly agree with the comments saying she should have been given an immediate custodial sentence.

    What this article doesn’t mention is that the reason he was remanded was that he breached his court bail by going back to her, at which point she reported him for the breaches. He was a sergeant. He absolutely knew the risk he took, and he paid the price. He was sacked for gross misconduct in relation to breaching his bail conditions.

  10. >Judge Mr Justice Cavanagh said the only reason he did not send Aston to jail was because of the ‘traumatic’ impact it would have on her three-year-old daughter.

    Can you really avoid going to jail for breaking the law in the UK just because you have children?

  11. Where a false accusation is malicious it should automatically carry the same sentence as that which was accused. Without that parity, there will never be a deterrent.

  12. That’s a difficult title to read. The clause is longer than the rest of the sentence.
    Uh, so she was fired for lying. Got it.

  13. Why do women get more lenient sentences than men? Why the hell does a woman get leas time for murder than a man? It should be bloody equal?
