Australia: Sex abuse accused father fights back
Submitted by anthony on Mon, 2010-01-25 02:15
Story here. Excerpt:
'A DAD cleared of claims he sexually abused his kids is now hitting back at his ex wife.
The man is accusing his ex-wife of perjury, assault and threatening to kill.
The legal action, believed to be a first for Victoria, will set a controversial precedent and could open the floodgates to similar cases.
"Bill", whose identity cannot be revealed for legal reasons, is alleging his wife deliberately lied when she made allegations that he had sexually abused their children.
...
He was eventually acquitted, but the ordeal cost him his job, his home and about $450,000 in lost income and legal costs. The case is also based on similar accusations of sexual abuse of their children made by the ex-wife during a bitter Family Court battle.
The Family Court judge found Bill's ex-wife to be violent, untruthful, lacking moral values and responsible for the psychological and emotional abuse of her children - but still gave her custody of the two girls, now aged 9 and 11, because they had become estranged from their father.'

It's a good thing this isn't
When I saw 'Victoria' I was initially worried, then I breathed a sigh of releif to learn it was not in Canada - where the guy would have NO chance vice a snowball's chance in Hell.
