Exactly. It's very important to get sexual assault allegations when they are fresh aswell, before any evidence dries up, not just DNA or forensic evidence but witnesses etc too.
But Mia did report this straight away and the investigators believed that her daughter had been coached...

the article at SPIKED says it best and the outrageous claim that "you will be believed" and that all who claim to be a 'victim' should automatically deserve sympathy is abhorrent.
If someone claimed a person robbed a bank 30 years or murdered someone and it was their word against the accused they would be laughed out of court.

If these are false allegations by Mia Farrow and her daughter, it is really high profile; I just wish there was a way of proving it one way or the other. Sadly that's part of the problem.
It is telling that Mia Farrow describes it as "her truth" (Dylan's) not THE truth, and I wonder why she has been happy to leave her grandchildren with someone she thinks is a child molester for all this time?
