Should the female that falsely accused the Lacrosse players of rape be criminally charged?

Answer:
I don't think so.....I believe that she doesn't even deserve any more attetion on this matter. Everyone knows she is a liar that was just looking for $$$$. It sucks though that she has made a bad name for women and people will question women more when they claim rape. I think we should all chip in on a one way ticket to Iran.........She puts those guy's through a living hell.

No she should make love to them all to make up for it.

---

Absolutely YES !

She should get, if convicted, just as much time in the slammer as her victims would had they been falsely convicted.

---

Yes. When girls do that, it makes other victims less believable and maybe not even come forward, for fear they just won't be believed. She needs to know it's not OK.

---

YES YES YES YES..look at what she did to those guys, all the time and money wasted in the courts for what? hell yeah she should be TARRED AND FEATHERED, then jailed

---

yes, she should

---

Yes. In fact they can sue her for false info

---

From what I understand she is mentally ill. She or her legal guardians should be held liable though to keep anything similar from happening in the future.

---

its defamation of character. but they'd have to prove that, in addition to not doing the crime, their reputation had been affected.

---

Yes i believe she should get charged. It's because of her and women like her that the women who truly gets violated have such a hard time getting the ones that actually did it charged and/or convicted.

---

Yeah. The fact is she false reported an incident and ruined the lives of these young men. Maybe that'll teach college boys to stay away from strippers.

---

Send her to jail for as long as the accused would have been in prison. Make the false witness server ALL their terms consecutively.

---

Lets wait and see what happens to the D.A. Not just now.

---

yes,there should be a criminal penalty for falsely accusing someone of such a serious crime.

---

yes..if they prove she falsely accused them...that has not been shown....less than 33% of rapists are convicted....just because charges were dropped does not mean they were innocent...it just means there was not enough evidence...do you know how many rapists use condoms now or days?

I believe Nifong knew this woman suffered from mental problems and used it to his advantage. Her mental state would need to be examined to determine if she knew this action she was doing was wrong, it appeared to me she did because of the civil lawyer that was waiting in the wings to pounce on the Duke guys, that ain't going to happen. This is an injustice to the accuser and the three men. Nifong should get the fullest weight of the law against him and it already started with the NC bar telling him that all charges are STILL pending against him, we will need to wait until June to see what happens to him as for her that will be looked at carefully as well. The AG stated that NO criminal charges against the accuser due to medical history, as for civil action the same history would be used and she most likely would not pay anything, but we will see.

From what I understand of what was said by the new prosecutor that dismissed the charges, he things that she actually believed her statements. If so, it would be difficult to justify a criminal prosecution against her and nearly impossible to convict.

The Lacrosse players might have a claim against her and the original prosecutor for malicious prosecution/abuse of process.
