Portsmouth woman charged over false rape claims

A woman has been charged with making a false rape allegation after an investigation by police.

The 31-year-old, of Winchester Road, Portsmouth, is also accused of perverting the course of justice.
She was bailed to appear at Portsmouth Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, 4 August, a spokesman for Hampshire police confirmed.

It follows a police investigation into an allegation of rape in Portsmouth on Monday, 5 July.

Second article, and she is now named:

Nicola Osborne, of Winchester Road, Buckland, is accused of perverting the court of justice. The 31-year-old is alleged to have falsely claimed she was raped after being forced into a car in Fratton Road, Fratton, in the early hours of July 5.

A 26-year-old man arrested in connection with the allegation was later released without charge. Osborne was released on bail by Portsmouth magistrates to appear at Portsmouth Crown Court in December.

Please pick up a copy of "A Motion for Innocence" which deals with the problems discussed on these very blogs. False accusations, wrongful convictions and a warped society and court system. It's all adding fuel to the fire that we have so much trouble putting out. Speak up and be heard!

Another likeky FRA, this time against a policeman so one wonders if they will investigate an FRA against one of their own more diligently.

IMHO, they will. There is a special bond amongst those in law enforcement; "We take care of our own".

Gender / Raunch feminism has gained alot of traction over the last 15 years, they gain traction by throwing heterosexual working class males under their tires.
