Leah Freeman charged with making false allegation of sexual assault

Revenge. Add another to that category. What is surprising is that she was put in jail, and is only 16. That is far from normal.

What is even more surprising, and welcome, is that police acknowledge the effect on the accused, without getting into the effect on the possible, hypothetical future victims of a completely seperate crime.

Leah Freeman charged in false accusation.

Burgaw A 16-year-old girl who authorities say made up an allegation she'd been sexually assaulted has been charged with a misdemeanor, officials said Thursday.

Leah Freeman of Willard has been charged with one count of filing a false report, according to a statement the Pender County Sheriff's Office released Thursday. Deputies investigated the complaint and found the crime Freeman alleged didn't occur, according to the statement from Detective Sgt. Scott Lawson of the office's special victims unit.

“An allegation of sexual assault, even if unsubstantiated, can devastate the life of the accused,”

Lawson said in the statement. “False accusations are considered serious and will not be brushed aside.”

Authorities say Freeman filed the false report in retaliation for something that happened in the past.

She was put in the Pender County jail on a $5,000 bond.

How does our civilization tolerate false rape claims? Well...

http://www.ourcivilisation.com/whycare.htm

"The General Impact Of The Decline Of A Civilization
by Philip Atkinson
When a civilization declines it goes into reverse with all the wealth, power and wisdom realised by its rise being discarded at an ever increasing rate until dissolution. The people will discover that:

1. The quality of goods and services falls as the cost increases; and this corruption extends into every aspect of their existence, from the faltering quality of bread to the growing inconstancy of love.

2. The essential requirements of:

i. Peace will be disturbed by increasing interruptions of:

• Noise.
• Indecency (see f-word and loss of shame)
• Violence from within and from without the community.

ii. Order will be increasingly eroded.

Tyranny and injustice will reign as delusion triumphs and the community dissolves into impotence. But this will never be generally recognized because the source of the disease is the waning of citizens' comprehension. A decay made palpable by the disappearance of plain speaking.

Such a society is no longer engaged in creating a human heaven on earth, but is earnestly constructing the very opposite where:

i. The worst people get rewarded while the best get penalized.
ii. The education system can only spread delusion.
iii. The bureaucracy becomes a liability instead of an asset.
iv. The courts must promote injustice.

However this will always be denied because truth will be vanquished by lies."

Lawlessness in the courts and amongst those who prosecute and those who judge pave the way for lawlessness in society who in return, advocate, encourage, support/endorse, excuse and, revel in it's wickedness. Can there be law without order or order without law? Have truth and fairness no place in law and order? One could ask these thing of one of the practioners of feminist jurisprudence.

I have likened gender feminist to be like a computer virus,even a trojan virus. The governments and our society/societies are the computers it has infected and reduplicated itself within to infect other computers. Through eloquent words and speeches, it has charmed it's way from one computer to another. After it has infected one, it slowly destroys the conquered computer and leaves it useless. The virus, of course dies with the hard drive.

I know this is a weird analogy but, I hope it makes sense.

Then we must, of a certainty, hasten the day of its coming.

Rest not my fellow MRA brothers! Your hand (and my hand too) must continue to till the land.

“An allegation of sexual assault, even if unsubstantiated, can devastate the life of the accused”

As with so many other articles (where supposed “journalists” are forced to do unpleasant tasks, such as reporting on an FRA), we are given very few details (compared to, say, the story about the search for a missing church bell which also ran in the same paper), so I’m left wondering, does this quoted statement indicate that someone WAS arrested? Or is it that Police are becoming increasingly aware of the potential damage done to the innocent victims of the crime (of FRA)?

I’d like to think that this may be a case of the latter, although experience would suggest that it is more likely to be a case of the former.

At any rate, it is clearly a good sign that her crime is being taken seriously (as seriously as the statutes would allow), as opposed to some many other cases in which the “troubled young woman” is shielded not only from any meaningful punishment, but from the public release of her identity.

I look at instance such as this one as a positive sign that things are finally starting to turn around for the better.
