You're using the highest possible spectrum for that point. Recants have been shown to be as high as 90% but numerous other studies have found them to be lower than that figure.
I understand well enough how that works. The issue here is that not all cases of recants are due to being pressured. One thing we seem to be gleaning over is the fact that she was arrested and charged with falsifying a report to police. That doesn't normally happen in recant situations unless there's evidence that it might possiby be true. At this point in time we can't go with a guilty until procen mindset but rather have to wait until the case is finished and all the evidence is presented.
If a man wants to change, is changing, and then is unfairly robbed of that opportunity by a lie then he should not be left on his own. Taylor obviously convinced the staff he was all in or we would never have taken the risk. We have no right to make a moral judgment off a knee jerk media reaction but should rather see how the case plays out.

Actually this is a very hot topic with DV in the court system. Some states actually require by law to charge the accuser who recants with perjury other states are trying to make it harder to do so. But there is no need to discuss issues arising form the VAWA on here.
So now because the media reports on the police arresting Taylor and charges of DV were issued it is a knee jerk reaction? And even if she recants it does not drop the charges if the police want to still go after him.
We can go back and forth so as stated earlier the best news I have heard all week.
