    Not in this case though. What you’re talking about is sexual assault but these two are facing far more than just a few sexual assault charges (not that those aren’t serious either), including kidnap, false imprisonment, human trafficking, and money laundering.

    The concern in sexual assault charges is always the possibility of false accusations. Sadly some people seem to try and use trumped up historical sexual assault accusations against people that they have a vendetta against, and it’s kind of hard for the other party to defend against. How do you prove you didn’t commit a crime 15 years ago when there’s no evidence either way?
