They are also following CA in the way they opened the statute of lims for sex related accusations.

To curry favor with the court during such proceedings, yes, either parent will do what they believe is just to gain favor with the court for custody, etc no matter how ugly they get.

Sometimes people do things out of spite. I can’t produce numbers, and its probably a small rate of incidence, but couples involved in a nasty vindictive divorce can do spiteful things.

If you learned that your daughter was abused by your spouse, you’d be kind of obligated as a parent to seek divorce and full custody asap, no? Like who wouldn’t do that?

What about sworn testimony? Does that fall under the category of “evidence” or “just the point of a finger”?

I’m no lawyer but I thought the former, in most courts.

Yep. I did time with a guy who was accused of molesting his daughter and I genuinely believe he was innocent. He was going through a nasty divorce and custody battle. All it takes is for a p***** off mother to point the finger and you’re screwed.

Dear TS, that is exactly what I was thinking. It’s a knee perk reaction.

I beg to differ: with these crimes just the point of the finger is enough to convict people of a crime whether they are guilty or not. While i was locked away I know that some of the inmates were not guilty of the crimes that they were accused. They don’t need any evidence. Just that point of a finger. Guilty!!
