Except that the church did nothing when they caught those texts coming from the youth pastor. What does that tell you about their commitment to him? Surely at that point they should not have needed a complaint from her at all; we have here a man abusing a position of authority within his church for sexual gain, and all the church did was tell him "stop it."

No matter how consensual the sex was, if a woman decides it was rape, just go ahead and bend over and accept the raping the judicial system is about to lay on you.

Rape is just one of those instances that requires one to prove thier innocence, any lawyer will advise you to take a plea deal.

Here's what a legal advice website says. Who should I believe, them or you?

There's also this stuff:

So yeah, would you plead guilty to a false charge of rape, knowing that a dismissal is possible?

I wouldn't. When I die, the only thing I'll leave behind is my good name -- and I'll defend that, especially against false charges. Your mileage seems to vary.

Look you don't have to believe me. Maybe you should look at actual case where people have plead guilty even though they were innocent.

Quote:In the summer of 2002, Banks was arrested and charged after classmate Wanetta Gibson falsely accused him of dragging her into a stairway at Polytechnic High School (Poly) and raping her. Faced with a possible 41 years to life sentence, he accepted a plea deal that included five years in prison, five years of probation, and registering as a sex offender. Wanetta Gibson and her mother Wanda Rhodes sued the Long Beach Unified School District, claiming the Poly campus was not a safe environment, and won a $1.5 million settlement.[18][19] In March 2011, Gibson contacted Banks on Facebook, met with him, and admitted that she had fabricated the story. Banks secretly recorded Gibson's confession, but she refused to tell prosecutors that she had lied so she wouldn't have to return the money she and her family had won in court. Nevertheless, with Gibson's taped admission and help from California Innocence Project attorneys, Los Angeles County prosecutors overturned Banks' conviction on May 24, 2012.[19]

Do you require more examples?

I know you think you wouldn't plead guilty but given a choice between 5 years or life in prison. I believe you take the deal also.

*edit*
After reviewing your links it appears the in two of the cases the "victim" recanted, no reason given why the charges were dropped in another even though the investigation is ongoing, and the fourth is about a judge who isn't your average joe.

What exactly do those examples prove?
