As we've often discussed on this blog, there should be varying punishments for a false allegation of rape or sexual assault, depending on how far the case/investigation goes, whether someone is arrested or not, along with several other factors.
In the following story, Amanda Moyes has received one year in jail.
The reason she said she was raped? She cheated on the man she was in a relationship with. She left for three days and had consensual sex with the man she accused, then, when she went back to the man she was in a relationship with, she said she was raped.
The man she accused spent almost a day in jail over her accusation. Unless you have been in his shoes, you can only imagine what he went through mentally during that time in custody.
She also was given a year suspended sentence for perverting the course of justice.

The increasing number of irresponsible and unethical air-heads being publicly busted for false-rape claims is perhaps some of the unintended consequences of the gender-raunch single-parent culture the feminists help create.

Is anyone else unable to access Paul Elam's website? Have the feminists silenced him?
Nvm about Elam,technical difficulties on my part,I guess.
Things like this are the exact reason why I tell people that absent someone being pulled off the street kicking and screaming or having severe physical injuries, we should be VERY VERY skeptical of rape accusations.
The truth is that many women WILL lie about being raped to get revenge on a man who they think has 'taken advantage of them' when they sleep with the woman and then don't want to marry that woman.
In America the liar would have gotten a free pass.
'Is anyone else unable to access Paul Elam's website? Have the feminists silenced him?'
no idea about paul's site. i've noticed that many/most of the mrm sites are using blogger.com or some commercial server site. those sites are far more vulnerable than having a site hosted on a private server. when i eventually create my own site, it is going to be hosted on a very private and secure server.

One year in jail sounds about right. Can we hope the tide is shifting toward holding false rape accusers responsible?

It wasn't on your part. I couldn't get to his site all last evening. I got a message about "unable to establish database connection" - an error I had never encountered before.
On a completely unrelated note - I'd like to point out Chuck Ross' take on Dominique Strauss-Kahn Sexual Assault and Moral Relativism: The Case of DSK
If DSK is as guilty as it seeming to appear that he is, this might explain why a man with so much power, so much to lose, infinite ability to "get" women, and such a decidedly "not guilty" demeanor afterwards (having lunch with his daughter, calling the hotel and disclosing where he was),could have - would have - attacked a maid in the way he is alleged to have.
I've certainly struggled to get my head around how he can both seem so guilty while still appearing to behave as though he didn't believe he had done anything wrong.
Perhaps Chuck has got his finger on this one:
"DSK behaved like a man who had not just committed a sexual assault because an elite international financier sticking an unwanted dick in an African chambermaid’s mouth does not register on the sexual assault spectrum to rich, powerful European bankers. Thankfully, at least one feminist-minded writer, Michelle Goldberg of The Daily Beast, pointed out the dissonance between the feminist love affair with French sexual egalitarianism and same said feminist’s disdain for Anglo patriarchy."
Having never been an elite European banker, I just can't seem to relate to such a thought-pattern, but Chuck just might be right about the way a man like DSK might believe and behave.
Of course, there's still the caveat the DSK himself predicted a “set up” not unlike the situation he now finds himself in. And, no doubt, his past behaviors would make him an easy target. Semen on the maids blouse could just as easily have been obtained from a condom he had used (for example), and I still find it most curious that the press has been informed that his DNA was found on her, but we still have heard nothing about whether or not video surveillance can even put the two together in the room at the same time (just sayin...).
Something seems badly amiss WRT this case. Guilty as he’s increasingly appearing, I still going to hold off judgment pending something more definitive.

Personally, unless there’s a witness to it happening, I’ve even more skeptical of claims involving the woman being kidnapped (pulled off the street, or off the proverbial park path) because so many of the FRA-for-alibi scenarios we’ve seen involve just that as part of the claim.
It hard to tell just from this given account whether this is a case of revenge, or a case of alibi; although, to me, it appears to be more of the latter – she returning to her boyfriend after a 3-day absence, and needed an excuse. Like Damell Ndonye (and many others) she may have never intended for it to reach the police, as she likely simply hoped her boyfriend would buy her tale of horror, and that they could keep it a secret from the public.
This goes to my theory that a significant portion of the “rapes” that women only ever tell their friends about remain unreported (to police) simply because the claimant knows full well that no such rape took place, that no evidence will be found, save that which might implicate her for lying about it.
A woman’s friends will seemingly never question her account. We have even seen instances of women unquestioning accepting other women’s claims that college authorities warned them against reporting their rapes to police, threatening them with severe consequence should they do so (yeah, right!).
I would have to imagine that at least some women who make rape claims to loved ones (husband or boyfriend, typically) hope that the men will be just as incurious about the allegations as are women. I’d further imagine that, down through the ages many men have bought their women’s lies, and if not inspired to violent anger against the alleged attacker, would try to protect their beloved wife from public scorn and ridicule by not disclosing the humiliating and degrading attack they believed she had suffered.
Certainly, some loving men have kept their wives actual rapes hidden from public scrutiny. But just a certainly, many have simply been hiding FRA’s which where little more than alibis for the wife’s infidelities).
Some thing’s remain rather consistent, despite the myriad of changes to the world across time.

I wish the little pig who falsely accused me of rape got a year in jail.
Perhaps we here, at the FRS, can start a tradition of sending a Seasons Greeting card to all false-accusers in jail?
