Nicole Patrick, 39, of the 1000 block of West Lawrence Avenue, was charged with simple battery, a misdemeanor, according to police.

Investigators say a domestic dispute led to the killing but offered no further details.'

'Lisa: Systemic change is required at all levels of development. We've boiled this down to four basic learnings:

1.Specific solutions for girls. The unique needs of girls are getting lost in the broader focus on women and youth, so we have to be specific about solutions for girls. For example, girls are five times more likely to die in childbirth than women in their 20s and they have less access to health and social services.

2.Invest directly. Investing in girls doesn't mean investing only in girls. Take a look at your current programs and figure out whether they directly reach vulnerable adolescent girls. No matter your focus, girls can be a powerful part of the solution, or accentuate your problem.

3.It's urgent: Get to her by 12. She arrives at adolescence in a pretty healthy state, and it goes sideways from there. If we don't reach her by age 12, we will be investing in a treatment cycle rather than more cost-effective prevention methods.

'Who is this woman who falsely accused four men of rape? They story doesn't say! The false rape complainant who had four innocent men jailed, must have her privacy protected. She is thus identified as "the student," "the accuser," or "the woman." How about giving us her name?
...
Wonderful! How awesome it must be for those four men, for the rest of their lives, to have to explain to people who Google their names, that they really didn't gang rape someone. Awesome first-date and job-interview topics. Meanwhile, the woman who had the men imprisoned for three days while the D.A. investigated the case, remains anonymous.
...
What is there to decide? If I kept a woman in a dungeon for three days, I'd face serious felonies. The false accuser had four men kept in jail for three days. What is the difference? It's false imprisonment.'

'Women lying about being raped to claim compensation: - Women in the UK may be accusing men of rape simply to get the thousands of pounds compensation. This can only have the effect of bringing into disrepute the action of reporting a rape and could make true victims even less likely to report the crime.

Two recent cases have highlighted this sad state of affairs and show how the table may well be turned on women who falsely accuse men of rape.

Sarah-Jane Hilliard had accused Grant Bowers of raping her and immediately applied for compensation from the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority. She was found out after investigations found that her story had been lies and her friend was unable to corroborate her story. Meanwhile Mr Bowers has been left traumatised by the events and claims to have lost his confidence. However, a recent ruling may well allow Mr Bowers to claim compensation himself.'

A collection, for those interested. There are of course hundreds, maybe thousands, more web pages discussing this case, but we can't list them all. Here are just a couple, with some related content:

'If these five guys have no sense of shame, they should at least shut up.

No young woman would consent to having sex with five guys in a bathroom unless she was seriously troubled.

Any guy with even a trace of gentleman would have told everyone to leave this 18-year-old Hofstra freshman alone, then walked her to her room and left her in the care of a female friend or roommate.

Instead, the five apparently went ahead and had sex with her, one after another after another after another after another.

One even videotaped it with his cell phone.

Then surprise! She turned out to be as troubled as they should have known her to be in the first place.

She told her boyfriend and then the police that she had been gang-raped. The police locked up four of the guys while the fifth quaked in fear of joining them before he finally came forward with the video that showed the sex was consensual.'

'Have you, or a person you know, ever been falsely accused of domestic violence? Targeted with a restraining order? Put in jail?

Each year over one million Americans are hit with a false or trivial accusation of partner abuse. It's now reached the point that domestic violence laws represent the largest roll-back in Americans' civil rights since the Jim Crow era!

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and the theme is "Restore Civil Rights to the Violence Against Women Act." DV Awareness Month is our opportunity to get word out that our nation's domestic violence laws have gone too far, harming innocent citizens and diverting scarce resources away from the true victims.'

'I have a bone to pick with my female counterparts. Feminism is all about each woman having the right to choose her own path. We should be allowed to do whatever we want in this life and not be judged by society’s arbitrary sex roles, right? Absolutely.

What about men? Do they enjoy this right?

Some examples:

Bob and Jane are a middle class couple. They have two children. They get an amicable divorce. There is a custody hearing. Both of them are good parents. Both of them want to be the primary custody holder. Who gets the children? Seriously, every single time, unless Jane lights up a crack pipe in the courtroom she will get physical custody. Bob is expected by society to be happy with every other weekend and two weeks in the summer. Don’t believe me? What would you think if you heard that a woman only saw her children every other weekend and a few holidays? I PROMISE you would think, “What did she do to lose her kids?” But, with men, that’s just the way it goes, right?

'2) Did you notice how I just said "turn out to be false or are recanted"? Let's not confuse the two.

There's a widespread assumption that recanting an accusation means that you're admitting you lied. But in reality, lots of victims recant not because they made it up, but because they come to the unfortunate realization that it will cost them more, emotionally, to pursue justice than to let it go. We'll probably never now what happened in this case, but it's entirely possible that she was threatened by the accused perpetrators or their associates, interrogated by the police about her sexual history or what she might have done to "provoke" the attack, or blamed and slandered by the media or people in her community. All of these things happen all too often to rape victims who speak out. Let's not ignore the possibility that they happened here.'

Story here. Excerpt:

'Rekha Kumari-Baker, 41, admitted the killings but had denied murder on the grounds of diminished responsibility.

Davina Baker, 16, and Jasmine Baker, 13, were killed with a kitchen knife in a frenzied attack in 2007.

A jury at Cambridge Crown Court took about 30 minutes to reach a verdict of guilty on both counts of murder. She will be sentenced on Tuesday.

The court heard Davina was stabbed 39 times at the house in Stretham, on 13 June 2007. There were defence wounds on the girl's body.
...
Jurors were told one theory was that Ms Kumari-Baker wanted to "wreak havoc" on her ex-husband David Baker by killing the girls.
...
Psychiatrist Lyle Hamilton - who was called to give evidence by Kumari-Baker's lawyers - said medical literature showed that women had killed children because they were "mentally ill" and because they were a "retaliatory type".'

'It has been said that "It's a man's world," but some of us take that way too literally. In fact, sometimes such sexism can turn deadly.

"The foundation of manhood is not all that different for most men," said Tony Porter, co-founder of the group A Call to Men, which deals with issues of domestic abuse and sexual violence against women.

Porter, a nationally recognized public speaker, will be in Milwaukee and Madison this week to hold training sessions sponsored by various groups dealing with the issue.

Porter has held similar training sessions for the U.S. military, assorted colleges and universities and even the United Nations. He said his goal is to teach men to avoid the pitfalls of abusive and sexist attitudes toward women.
...
Porter has gained a national reputation for telling men how to do right by women, but much of his message also is about redefining what it means to be a man. His sessions are designed to show men just how much sexism remains as a barrier for women, but also a barrier for society in general.
