Message: [QUOTE="Foordy, post: 3036992, member: 1769"] your assuming she is lying just because he says he is innocent. IMO, this sort of mentality is why more victims don't come forward to report sexually assault police don't charge just on a victims say so (especially against high profile suspects), you just need to look at the Bulldogs Coffs Harbour scandal to see that, there would likely be more evidence. whether that evidence is enough to convince a jury is another story (but it would have been enough to convince both the police and DPP) before they even contemplate charging an alleged sexual assault victim with perjury they will want to have compelling evidence that she is guilty. JDB and his legal team also need to remember, that should he attempt to sue the alleged victim, she will be screaming "he is a rapist" all over again ... she may even decide to take legal action of her own, and she would have a better chance of winning a civil trial due to the lower burden of proof. if he is guilty (and i'm not saying he is), then he would want to think long and hard before attempting a law suit against the victim.
