PHONY POLICE REPORTS ARE A CALL FOR HELP?
I find this COMMENTARY in the Boston Globe by Ellen Barry absolutely fascinating. Someone on the Boston Globe staff is actually arguing that women who file false charges of rape aren’t criminals, but are in fact suffering from some mental affliction. Filing false charges is not only against the law, it is an affront to the entire criminal justice system. I thought most Americans considered sending innocent people to prison an atrocious act, but apparently this woman at the Boston Globe thinks these criminals should receive our sympathy instead of our contempt.
