Key Issues in the Justice System

  • ✓ An allegation alone can trigger a criminal charge.
  • ✓ The complainant's testimony can be enough for a conviction, with no corroboration required.
  • ✓ Courts often treat these cases as a credibility contest.
  • ✓ Growing concern that post-#MeToo the system leans toward "believe the complainant."
  • ✓ False allegations can be weaponized in breakups, family court, and domestic disputes.
