Evidence of Prior False Accusations is Inadmissible

Anonymous User writes "A man was convicted of date rape based on the testimony of a woman who made false accusations of rape in the past. And while the judges of Arkansas Supreme Court are intelligent enough to understand that they are most likely destroying an innocent man's life, they unanimously convicted him to further their careers."



Ok, so this guy's going to prison for 13 years, where he will be repeatedly raped and recieve all the treatment famously given to convicted rapists in prison during that time while the guards look the other way but let's have keep some perspective. A woman was saved from the possibility of feeling uncomfortable by talking about her sexual past on the stand! Thank God that travesty was averted.
