'MANKATO — Text messages saved by an Iowa man, as well as reports from other witnesses, helped get him released from jail and out from under false rape charges.

Referring to 23-year-old Anthony James Weatherman of Milford, Iowa, as an “all-American boy,” attorney Thomas Hagen said his client was the real victim in allegations that led to his arrest in September.

A woman accused Weatherman of raping her during a college football victory party, but felony charges were dismissed after investigators learned more about what happened at the Sept. 6 party near Minnesota State University.

“Basically, what she said was a lie, and no rape occurred,” Hagen said. “He played basketball in high school, he’s a member of the National Guard. It was just totally out of his nature, these allegations that were made.”

The woman told police she was sleeping before Weatherman forced her to have sex. Weatherman was arrested, charged with first-degree criminal sexual conduct and jailed until he was able to post a bond for his release more than a week later. His bail had been set at $75,000 but was later reduced to $10,000.'

Result of Campus Rape Center Hype

I live in Mankato, and had a running debate on the misuse of rape statistics with the campus rape center director last fall in the student newspaper, The Reporter. Notice that they haven't named the perpetrator in this case, and they aren't prosecuting.

I think that this sort of thing is a direct result of the hype that comes from the Women's Center and the campus rape crisis center.

Amber Ludwig

It seems someone (probably) from the area outed the perpetrator of this crime in the comments section.

Her name is evidently Amber Ludwig. And she deserves far more than she got.

Good! All false accusers (female rapists) should be outed and placed on the national sexual predator list.
