Suing the False Accuser

Ray Blumhorst writes ""How much money do you think it would be worth to you for every year spent in a maximum-security prison for a crime you didn't commit?" Soldier whose rape case was overturned files suit That's a tough question to ask, but that is exactly what the man in this story is doing. Another question one might want to ask is, "Did 'Rape Shield Laws' play any part in the false conviction and incarceration of this innocent man?" When one goes to the Innocence Project web site, Innocence Project and looks over the 143 people (all but one are male) who've been freed by DNA evidence, it boggles the mind to think how many other innocent men must be rotting in American jails today. Look over the reasons for false convictions on that web site if you get a chance. Are those 143 men who were falsely convicted just the tip of the iceberg in our misandric country that now has the highest rate of incarceration in the world (we passed Russia), 93% of whom are men? No wonder more and more men have no confidence in the integrity of our entire legal system."
