I agree with you that that is the question; however, I have a further
question and maybe you can help me. I agree with the legal stuff you
guys seem to be doing for people falsely accused, but I was wondering
if there was anything of a more psychological nature to support someone
who has been falsely accused and imprisoned overcome that trauma? This
relates to someone in my family who has been falsely accused and I KNOW
it was false because this person is not physically able to do what they
were accused of, although that is not something I can "prove" in
court.
Anyway, is there any help around for someone like that who has been
pounded away at by counselors they were sent to by the courts who were
trying to force them to admit something they didn't do?
I want to be up front with you folks. I am, myself, a "survivor" of
abuse and you may have seen me on some of the echoes for that subject.
If you've been falsely accused, you may immediately question that and I
wouldn't blame you one bit. But I am. However I don't believe that
everyone who is accused is a perpetrator all the time and I was also a
witness a few years back for a young man who was accused of raping a
friend of mine at a time when he was on the phone with me - as my long
distance bill confirmed. So I KNOW there are are false accusations
and I want to give all of you the benefit of the doubt and I hope you
will give me the same thing. Because I am VERY concerned about someone
who is in prison now and who hopefully will win an appeal and get out.
I know this must effect people just as horribly and is abuse just as
bad as anything I went through.
How do I help another person come through that?
Any ideas, suggestions, would be welcome and thank you.
