    This whole affair stinks of mental illness with a sense of being cheated out of money.

    And would someone please explain to me why this isn’t a police matter if it involves rape allegations…

      They don’t do anythinhg about it. Literally the clearance rate of rape cases is less than 20%. Your only recource to punish someone for the harm caused is civil court.

        So? Of course, you go to the police first regardless if it involves something as serious as rape…

            What are you saying? That it’s a bad idea to go to the police if you have been raped!?

      Exactly how? The article gives almost zero information surrounding the allegations. They just immediately accused the woman of making up the allegations.

        Yeah ok but it don’t exactly speak well for her credibility if this isn’t handled as a police matter…

          Statue of limitations likely doesn’t allow for criminal charges anymore.
