Perhaps a simplistic approach - but is not the best defence (if it is possible/available) for an accused to prove they were elsewhere when an alleged crime was committed?
By airline tickets, confirmations of hotel reservations, restaurant receipts, verifiable attendance at events - and the like. This type of evidence would appear to be very difficult to dispute.
it seems in these cases of sexual assault such evidence is not really accepted.
In Rolf's first case the judge was highly critical of him regarding the fact Harris couldn't remember if he had been in a certain town making a TV show decades ago.
Yet when a claimant was shown to be giving dates that couldn't possibly match what she claimed the judge said that it was perfectly reasonable for her get mixed up due to the trauma.
I call bullshit on that as the one devastating assault on me is firmly fixed in my mind- date,location..every detail even though it was in the 70s.
Thus Harris was in a no win situation.
Recall Jim Davidson who conclusively proved to police that he could not possibly have have assaulted a woman at the London Palladium and when they put this to the claimant she simply changed the location to another theater right outside London.
The terrible..and utterly fraudulent meme forced on to police of "believe the victim" which I believe borders on an attempt to pervert the course of justice when police take an oath before they are sworn in to "investigate impartially" but simply ignore that.
Now of course- the spotlight is on politicians who have sat by and watch British law be perverted. They seem to think it would never happen to them..but we told them otherwise. 
## coppers seem oblivious to the fact they too can be destroyed by an accusation..and it will come |
