Question: What is the number one false allegation that men make in divorce? What is the number one false allegation that men make in divorce court?
Answer: Probably child abuse, because that's about the only sure-fire way for a man to get custody of his child, if the mother is thought to be an abuser of the child. So I'd imagine that's what some men use.
I'm kind of shocked though. You say that women never make false accusations (or sure seem to imply it), but you sure do accuse men of doing it all the time.
Question: What are the legal remedies for a false or malicious sexual harassment allegation made by a colleague at work? A foreign colleague in a UK incorporated multinational has maliciously evoked a Sexual Harassment clause in the Group's Policy in an attempt to fix me. It has been rumoured all over the Group and formally lodged but not substantiated. It is all FALSE! I am deeply injured by the allegation(s). My boss even reprimanded me on that account without giving me the benefit of doubt.
Answer: Yes. If not true and you have tried several times to remedy the false report with your company and your boss, then it's time to see a lawyer.
Question: How is a child molesation allegation determined to be true or false? A child accussed another child of moslestation. The other child denies the allegation. How is the truth brought out?
Answer: Actually the police would turn this matter over to the Department of child and Family services, each of them would be questioned then depending on body language and their answers they would decifer which is truth and which is a lie. If found to be true probably some counseling for the one who did the molestation.

Question: If allegation of NE cheating is true is losing draft choices sufficient penalty? I would think that if the allegation proves to be true, the penalty should be that the game that they were caught cheating should be counted as a loss in their won-loss column…especially if they won the game.
If the game was against a division rival, both games against that division rival should be counted as losses to NE.
If the cheating is done against any other team, then it should just count as the one loss.
Also, forfeiture of a FIRST ROUND pick in the next draft and a huge fine to be donated to the players pension fund that ALL players should receive upon the end of their career…no matter how the end is reached.
Answer: They should have to forfeit the game.

Like Yahoo, the gutless wonders who do the reporting in secrecy will always be protected by the idiots behind the button.
Report absolutely everybody who lives near you for anything at all by way of payback. Tell the dole people they're fiddling on the side, tell the housing people that they're selling drugs and/or using the place as a brother, tell the social services that kids are getting battered and abused, and phone the plod every night to complain about yobs running riot.
That way the gits who encourage others to report things will have to run around like blue-@rsed flies instead of loafing about all day doing nothing.
If you can't attack the system in one way, attack it in another...
Question: Is there any truth in the allegation that Elizabeth I of England was promiscuous? I've heard this allegation from two or three Spaniards, who, being what they are (fiercely Spanish to the bone), detest the English queen who humiliated Philip II and his Invincible Armada. They were sympathetic too, to Catherine of Aragon and Mary I. There is a further allegation that Elizabeth knew she was sterile. If the Spanish assertion is correct, would that not explain Elizabeth's alleged promiscuity?
Answer: I suppose your "two or three Spaniards" were in the Queen's bedchamber and the witnesses of all these Elizabethan orgies? No, honestly, do you think it is possible to answer in a serious way? Elizabeth had favourites, such as Robert Dudley, the Earl of Leicester, or, later, the Earl of Essex, and they may very well have been her lovers too, but as for being "promiscuous", I think she was more interested in power, by establishing a firm state religion and organizing a centralized power.
Question: Withheld a promotion due to a investigation (inmate allegation) after being cleared of wrong doing!What to do? I was denied a promotion due to a internal investigation (inmate allegation) and I was told that everyone has to do a little time in the penalty box after I had cleared the investigation 1 ½ years earlier. What should I do??....the union here doesn't help and isn't a option (they scratch each others back)
This job is with the Federal government.
Answer: Find a new job.
Question: Do you agree with Rep. Nikki Haley that Palin and not SEXUAL allegation aganst her caused her to win? Palin had nothing to do with her winning the SC Republican primary. Tell the men that sexual allegation against her earned her their votes, they'll agree with you. Sex sells!
Answer: No, I do not agree. Palin's celebrity power has lost more elections by far for those she has endorsed than won.
Question: How does Rosie O'Donnell’s allegation of a 9/11 conspiracy hurt Hillary’s campaign? Rosie O'Donnell’s is largely irrelevant now, but the conspiracy theory she advanced – that our government was involved in 9/11 – has legs and lives on for some reason. Of course, George W. Bush was not president when the terrorists first took illegal residence here and began taking flying lessons. So, if President Clinton’s administration *was* complicit in the attacks, and Hillary was one of Bill’s most trusted advisors, what does Rosie’s allegation mean to Hillary’s credibility?
Answer: Your assessment of Rosie is incorrect. She's COMPLETELY irrelevant. Repubs like to quote her for the comedy it creates in the new media.....
Question: Which is more damaging, a false rape allegation or being raped? Well on one hand a false rape allegation completely destroys social standing, can lead to losing your job and make it harder to find another one.
But being raped is very emotionally traumatic and often is physically damaging too.
Just want to see your opinion.
Answer: I would label them equal, particularly if the rape was brutal and the man accused of rape was placed in prison.
I have been raped, twice, but never accused of it.
I have defended men falsely accused and if it goes to trial and the defendant doesn't get off in the first trial then it gets really tricky.
I try to tell men that they should avoid unstable women who might agree to sex and then maybe lie about it later. Doing this USUALLY prevents this from happening.
But if a man has a criminal record and he fits a profile then he needs a good attorney fast.
In most areas they test the DNA from the rape kit so this exonerates many men from the start, but cases prior to this have lots of problems and it can be murder trying to get an appeal or a conviction overturned.
Question: What is the difference between an allegation and an accusation? I have heard a lot of defnitions, but I'm not sure what's true.
Answer: An allegation assumes there is something wrong, an accusation is a positive legal statement of wrongdoing
Question: What happened to the Bush campaign allegation that McCain fathered a black child? In 2000, I got a call from someone on the Bush-Cheney team in S Carolina claiming that McCain had fathered a black child recently. Are there other things about McCain we need to know about?
Answer: Ohh, that lie was fabricated by the same people that McCain hired for this campaign, ironically.
That lie was thrown into the South Carolina race by the then Bush and Cheney team of dirtbags. Nothing against southerners, but that type of attack is devastatingly effective down there.

Question: Whats the difference between an allegation and an accusation?
but if someone is accusing you of something surely they have the proof to make the allegation
Answer: It could be argued that there is no substantive difference between the two terms. There is, but it's very subtle.
An "allegation" is a statement asserting wrongdoing without proof.
An "accusation" is simply the assertion of wrongdoing.
EDIT:
Scooby: The point is not necessarily that the "accuser" has proof of his accusation. Even a person making an allegation may think s/he has proof but that proof may not hold up to legal or logical scrutiny.
The point is that the nuances distinguishing the two terms are in the words themselves, not in who may be making the allegation or accusation.
Question: What are your views on the allegation by Cardinal Bertone that homosexuality causes Priests to rape children? Cardinal Bertone is the 'right hand man' to Pope Benedict in the Vatican's power structure. He has, pathetically announced that the issue of child sex abuse by Catholic priests is not one of paedophilia but one of homosexuality?? Your views?
Answer: Wow. Thats pretty low, even for The Church. You'd think that people would get over the "homosexuals are child molesters" steryotype.They are now clearly becoming desperate.Good luck with THAT one passing through
Question: How would you react if a family member or friend put in a false rape allegation against someone?
That's mighty nice of you Sam Fisher but I was hoping you could come along for a group booking.
Male prisoners are scared of me dsds.
According to your vid Eoghan - 90% of rape allegations made to police are false. Am I expected to believe that there are a lot of revengeful women out there supporting the sisterhood? Seems very extreme to go to these lengths.
Answer: I would try to convince them that reporting a false rape is as bad as rape itself, it is an emotional kind of rape. I'd try to reason with them and ask them why they want to ruin a person's life and reputation. I'd try to make them understand what rape really is and how terrible it is. It's not something you can lie about just to be vindictive.
