It is not relevant in this case, because Brewer was convicted of some of the charges, but there are many reasons why you might pretend you were abused.
Perhaps to make yourself interesting? To gain sympathy? As an excuse for certain behaviour?
Or perhaps to get a job?
There are areas where it is considered an advantage to have experienced this (or other trauma or illness)if you are treating current sufferers, such as in specialist counselling, and i know of a case where someone has lied to have access to training.



Great points.

Your right

JK2006 Yes Jim I found it a bit confusing but let's face it, whether it's about one pervert or another doesn't matter much in 2013. Lock up all men, I say, and dykes too.
JK2006 Guilt without trial? The police officer's wet dream.

And corroboration is not evidence as I know to my cost. It can simply be the result of good coaching by astute police.
Jim Sorry. I just realised that is evidence against somebody else. I was trying to hold up my end of a phone conversation at the same time as posting my previous comment. Multitasking was never my forte.
