I'm glad UF is getting out in front of this. FSU looks even scummier.

I think it's fricking shitty, because somewhere along the way someone's life is going to get dragged through the mud. Their pro prospects will be worse. They'll undoubtedly suffer in school. Etc, etc. Just don't take away their scholarship. I don't know what FL's planning on doing, but I would hope they'll discount he-said/she-said and stick to the evidence. If evidence proves he raped her, send his arse to prison. But if the evidence proves he did nothing but have sex, it seems a failure to have already allowed the media to drag his name through the mud (be on the lookout for those front page stories when rapes are proven to be false...yeah, you won't find them).

Yeah, I understand that. And maybe out of fear of redundancy he omitted something like that. UF has a good PR team so I expected a little more, especially Machen's statement. He's the 'face' of UF and it's pretty clear I'm not a fan of his
It is a little harsh. The recent string of on-campus assaults probably plays into this as well, not a lot of good press out there right now as it relates to campus safety.

I'm all for evidence. I'm all for due process. I'm NOT all for just believing someone's word when FALSE RAPE ACCUSATIONS HAPPEN.
Do some women sometimes falsely report rape? True or False?
"Given how quick someone like you is to totally write off the potential of a false rape accusation because he's a man, I can see why women have absolutely no fear of criminal repercussions for filing false statements."
Not once have I accused her of lying. Not once. Not once have I said he DIDN'T rape her.
You just seem to be jumping to the "False rape accusation!!" trope just as quickly as you bemoan others for jumping on the "String him up!!" side. Do some women sometimes get raped? True or False?
Which is more prevalent, rape or false accusations?

SOURCE: The girl has been with Harris multiple times, she got jealous and said he sexually assaulted her
MORE FROM SOURCE: It is an athlete at UF, she thought they were exclusive, was upset Harris was with another girl

No, Winston's girl was a cleat chaser who regretted sleeping with him or something like that.

What often gets lost in that case are the 10+ years of loss of all control in that program. Cleared or not, those 10 years or so also got swept under the rug in the process. I would say the Duke folks got off for what they actually did and were never prosecuted on.

If this is the case then she needs to do jail time.

He's gotten his life back and the media reported because of how high a profile he was. With that said, I don't think they ever prosecuted his false accuser. Of course, I could be wrong because I haven't followed the case in awhile.

Nah, I've read plenty.
He's getting the same "due process" that any other UF student would under their University policy.
quote:

I've said multiple times in this thread (since we're talking about reading a "fricking word") that it happens. And it should be dealt with if it is a false accusation.

Not once have I accused her of lying. Not once. Not once have I said he DIDN'T rape her.
But you're being an advocate for protecting him and allowing him to be above the University's policy when dealing with a pending sexual assault case.

I have a nephew who life was ruined because of a false rape accusation. Spent 20 months in jail (had prior MJ arrests), and couldn't afford anything other than public defender. He was declared innocent- the woman had done this before.
Now he can't even date women because he is afraid. And he is the farthest you can get from gay. Boy is gorgeous. And now he is a true fricked up kid.
This is serious stuff. Good god, this is terrible for everyone involved, regardless if it is true or not.
