Make Filing a False Rape Allegation a Federal Crime

Created by M.T. on February 06, 2016

Rape is a terrible crime. Being accused of rape can destroy a person's life and diminishes the faith people have in real victims.

As of now, the only recourse is through the civil courts -- but false accusation of sexual crimes carry with them no real penalties.

At most, maybe a year in prison where in some cases the accused has already spent a decade behind bars.

That is not justice.
