Why can’t feminists acknowledge and own up to the heinous reality that false accusations DO happen?

Besides the recent case of Johnny Deppe and Amber Heard there are other horrifying stories of this happening.

One of the notable incidents was the story of Brian Banks. He was a 17 year old HS football star who was falsely accused by a 15 year old Wanetta Gibson that he dragged her into a stairwell and raped her. She and her mother later used the incident to sue the school district for $1.5 million dollars and they won.

Meanwhile Brian Banks was forced to either plead not guilty and face 41 years to life if he lost. His lawyer made a plea deal that lead him to getting locked up for 6 years followed by 5 years of very strict probation. He had to register as a sex offender. All hopes of him getting a football scholarship were obviously décimated.

When he got out of prison Wanetta Gibson reached out to him on Facebook to make a “bygones by bygones”. Banks hired a PI and had her secretly recorded. She confessed that she lied.

Banks used this evidence to get his case overturned and removed from the sex offender registry. Gibson was also sued by the school district to pay back the money she herself swindled. However already spent it all.

Anyway this was a very unique case because inadvertently Gibson blew her own cover. My guess is she thought she could discreetly relieve her almost nonexistent conscious with a verbal “apology” to Banks. She probably was also paranoid that Banks would seek violent revenge (who could blame him?). However she really thought a private “apology” was good enough.

Anyway Wanetta Gibson never had ANY criminal charges filed against her oxygen wasting ass. She will never be able to pay back the money she stole.

At least her identity is made public. But I don’t remember this story being mentioned on any national news outlets.

Just wondering if Gibson didn’t reach out to Banks what would of happened? Likely nothing.

So what do feminists have to say about this horrible true story?
