Trainee doctor's 'hell' over false rape allegation

Story here. Excerpt:

'A trainee GP has told of his "year of hell" after an allegation of rape made against him by a patient was thrown out.

Dr Steven Ashenford said he had "lost everything", including his marriage and home, after the false claim.

He has been suspended by the GMC and said the ordeal had put him off working as a doctor forever. He said he was desperate now to "just get my life back on track".

Dr Ashenford, 33, was working at the Sutton Hill medical practice in Telford, Shrops, when he was arrested last October after the female patient made the allegation.

He said: "The police were in the house searching it. My belongings were taken away, my computer and my diary. I felt really violated."'

Note: His accuser remains anonymous, and has faced no punishment.

we are guaranteed equal treatment and equal protection under the law.
we are expected/instructed to act against any who conspire to rob us of those rights.

it appears some are considered "special" under the law.
that evil which dare not speak it's name.

if the legal "profession" is not going to abide by it's own precepts
why have them at all?

good news: another MRA initiated.
and our numbers continue to grow.

speaking of: i was on a remote construction project today and all the guys out there
were fully aware of the way men are being treated by these privileged
pampered powdered perfumed preoccupied pundits of perfection. the single guys are
doing VERY well financially, having a real good time playing the field; and, all the married guys were standing around listening to the stories and wishing they were free
men again. they all sounded like MRA's. the truth is getting out, slowly but surely.

Even though this atrocity happened in England the same happens here too. It is past time to make false accusations of sexual assault a CLASS 1 FELONY!
