“I’m no Biblical scholar but this is why I believe “shall not bear false witness” is one of the Ten Commandments. It is that much of an abomination.”

Unfortunately Leftists are not interested in Justice, just disrupting courts and society for their own benefit.

Here’s the full video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEUzKVl5pfs I assume the young lady thought her outfit would get her noticed in any case.

There will be a bunch of opining about libel laws protecting the woman, her lawyer and the scum Shaun King for spreading this lie. I’d contend that this officer was not a public figure and that the threshold to prove libel in that instance is much lower - 1). the information was defamatory 2). there was willful negligence on the part of the libelers.

Seems crystal clear to me on both counts.

Thank God for dash cams.

And this is why every police officer and highway patrolman should wear body cams - it protects them, it protects us when we have to deal with the police.

> You cannot put that toothpaste back into the tube. <

That’s an important point. The original story (without the retraction) will be floating around the Internet forever.

White on black rape in the US, according to FBI statistics, occurs at a rate of zero per year. As in actual zero, as in does not happen.

Any black woman who says a white man sexually assaulted her is lying.

“Thank God for dash cams.”

Yup. Any time there is an incident any video of it, police or otherwise, should be made public ASAP. Good or bad, let the dice fall where they may.

Have an FBI link for sourcing?

The penalty for a false accuser should be the same as the penalty for the underlying crime they falsely claim happened which did not.

Yep. Just ask the Duke lacrosse team. What a railroad job that was. We even got a verb added to our lexicon from that case "Nifonged".

Irony. Sad part is she’s listed as an HR Manager on LinkedIn.

Shaun King is a professional liar. I guess that qualifies him as a journalist these days.

a white Texas state trooper sexually assaulted a black woman

Unlikely, white on black sex crime is vanishingly low, for obvious reasons. A Texas white male?

Her lawyer was smart enough to retract and apologize as quick as he realized his client had lied to him. That should enable him to get off the hook.

Oh MY OH MY OH MY!!!

Talcom X might be so deep in doo doo!!!

“The allegations, which the DPS denied Sunday evening, were amplified on social media by Merritt and social activist and journalist Shaun King, who wrote that Cole had been “kidnapped and raped” in posts that were widely shared and re-tweeted from his Facebook and Twitter accounts.”

I agree for a blatantly false allegation like this. If an allegation leads to trial and acquittal then I disagree. Assuming that it wasn’t a sham trial.
