Talk about adding insult to injury. In the news story below, a man was falsely accused of rape after being robbed. The false accuser was supported by both her mother and stepfather, complicit partners in the wrongdoing. Cases where a crime victim is accused of rape by his perpetrator to cover up the crime are especially repugnant. But given our false rape culture, where even far-fetched cries of rape are automatically believed, is it at all surprising that criminals would play the rape card to "prove" their "innocence"?
Here is the story:
Keisha Towns cries rape, after robbing man.
OCEAN CITY, Md.- Ocean City police have arrested a 23-year-old Fruitland woman accused of filing a false report of rape against a man whom she and two other people actually assaulted and robbed.
Police say that at around 1 a.m. April 4, Keisha Towns reported that she had been sexually assaulted in a Baltimore Avenue home by a 47-year-old man who was found unconscious by responding officers. Police say her mother, 44-year-old Mary Adkins and stepfather 54-year-old Jerry Adkins, both of Ocean City, confirmed the story.
Police say that during their investigation, detectives noticed numerous inconsistencies between the stories given by the three regarding the reported rape.
Police say that in addition to those inconsistencies, the 47-year-old man found in the home had a different version of what happened. The man, whom police did not identify, told detectives that he did not rape Towns. Instead, he claimed that Towns and Jerry Adkins had assaulted and robbed him of the $127 in his wallet.
Investigators say the victim also identified another man, Tony Adrian Garrison, 40, of Fruitland, as being involved in the robbery and assault.
Police charged Towns, her stepfather, and Garrison with robbery, second-degree assault, and theft under $1,000. Towns and the Adkinses were additionally charged with making a false report.
Jerry Adkins was taken into custody on April 9. He is being held in the Worcester County Jail on $25,000 bond. Mary Adkins was issued a court summons. Police are still searching for Towns and Garrison.

How Your Son Could End Up on the Sex Offender List
http://www.parentdish.com/2010/05/11/how-your-son-could-end-up-on-the-sex-offender-list/
Steve, it would be an interesting article to discuss all the cases we've dealt with where a criminal cries "rape" to cover up her wrongdoing. (Like the man who was killed by the wiccan, and the latter accused him of rape. She wasn't content with just taking his life, she tried to take his good name, too.) We are seeing more and more of this sort of thing. So I think Kanin needs to be updated: rape lies are used to cover up not just illicit consensual sexual encounters, they are used to cover up actual crimes.
It is a perversion of our law enforcement to have let the false Rape culture get this far.
By no longer charging false rape accusers, and by federally funding agitation propaganda..we have mixed up a mess of false rape accusations that the dominant power in our law enforcement organisations; (the Gender/Raunch constructionists) will not fix on their own.
At least, in spite of insult and injury, the man was not named. I would love to hear the conversation amongst officers at the police station over this incident.
Archivist, you should do yer own Kanin like studies.

Good link! I think the article's author, Lenore Skenazy, would make an excellent guest writer at FRS.
"How Your Son Could End Up on The Sex Offender List"
Thanks for the link.
I also found many of the comments refreshing. There is a huge difference between women's sites and feminist sites.
@Archivist...
Character assassination is the feminine equivalent to the masculine fist.
re "UK: Girl, 8, tells court she lied about being raped by ten-year-old boys"...
Toysoldier's view is well worth a look.

Unlike the masculine fist, character assassination is enabled and fully condoned by rape-shield and other biased laws. Not only that, but the feminine fist itself is rarely given scrutiny by legal system as demonstrated the comment by Gunner Retired on the article "How Your Son Could End UP on the Sex Offender List":
http://www.parentdish.com/profile/2330241/
The difference between a fist and character assassination is that the fist is temporary, physically extant, and can be unclenched at any time, and usually is not lethal. Character assassination, however, is permanent, is likely groundless, cannot be taken back, and almost always results in dire outcomes.
Besides, women commit domestic violence at least as often as men! So there is also the female fist to be concerned about.
Lenore is a friendly and very approachable person, with a large following.
She would be an asset to FRS. She has a son she loves.
It is not uncommon for MEN to use false sex accusations to hide their crimes, either:

A Murder in Bithlo
Hugh Edwards was not a registered sex offender.
But his life ended because a few locals decided he was.
Twenty-year-old Robert Pascale had this excuse to offer upon arrest for the first-degree murder of the 79-year-old who enjoyed feeding the neighborhood cats.
"I hit him twice with a bat," Pascale said. "I'm sorry, because my uncle molested me."
(..)
Deputies said they found Pascale hiding in a muddy pond, with only his head above water to breathe.
(...)
Pascale has a violent criminal past and spent two years in a state prison for stealing a car, burglary, robbery with a deadly weapon and battery on a detention-facility staff member, according to the Florida Department of Corrections.
He was released from prison in March, records show. Three weeks later, he was arrested on a charge of possession of marijuana and held overnight at the Orange County Jail.
Michael Garay, 32 was also arrested in the crime. His criminal record includes "... arrests on charges of battery of a law-enforcement officer."
Nice guys. Perhaps if these two were required to register by the state as violent offenders and their status communicated to the neighborhood, Mr.Edwards might have been better informed of the dangerous pair and taken precautionary measures to ensure his safety.
But in Florida, that's a measure taken against those deemed sex offenders, many of whom have committed no crime involving physicality, a registry Mr. Edwards found himself somehow associated.
Meanwhile, the ACLU sits back and allows the registry to flourish. So I ask, who is the next person to lose their life over Florida's sex offender laws?
The Orlando Sentinel is covering the story. Read it and weep here.

Anonymous - "It is not uncommon for MEN to use false sex accusations to hide their crimes, either"
I think the use of the term uncommon is unjustified here. A more accurate way to have stated it would have been to say that such occurrences are not unknown.
If they were not uncommon, we'd likely be treated to many more stories about them - there being neither gender-feminist nor white-knight tendencies to cover-up the misdeeds of male perpetrators (unlike that which we all well know exists for female perpetrators).
Men do not ordinarily have the opportunity to lie about being raped in order to cover up their misdeeds. If a man is caught having an affair is he going to say that the woman raped him? Girls can do that; men can't.
Not men so much, you're right - falsely accusing priests being the exception.
Boys however, present quite a different story.
Boys falsely accusing female teachers, mothers or daycare workers is certainly not unheard of, although it's at the behest of adults.
Accusing males is not uncommon, either. Custody, bitter divorces, teachers, coaches...
Just becaude you don't hear about it much doesn't mean it's unheard of.
