Here we go folks, No doubt some "lady" looking for her payday if true although the source is a rag so probably not. There was a really high profile case like this back in Ireland last year against players from the Irish international rugby team that all but destroyed their names and careers and where then found to be innocent, IMO these "ladies" that cry rape that turn out to false allegations need to locked up themselves as the damage that such a claim can sometimes be irreversible.

Police found her bruised and battered with bloodied clothes. That sounds fake to you?

It's the same exact case that that they try to pin on Conor again.

It's absolutely not the same case, you idiot.

This rape and battery occured last month. The rugby player was accused of raping a woman in june 2016.

Far more women actually get raped compared to those that falsely claim rape so you can't just assume every accusation against a high profile person is going to be false. Obviously none of the reports out right now say it's Conor so assuming it's him would be stupid but if it does come out to be Conor automatically assuming it's a false allegation is not good.

BTW it's a copy & paste but still some interesting info regarding false rape.


A. Only 2% of rape claims are false!

Although there are no exact statistics on false rape claims, it is at least 5-8%. One study done by a feminist lauded for his earlier work on campus rapists, found a 5.9% false claim rate. That study also discusses several other studies.

B. So that means over 90% of rape claims are true - why focus on false claims?

That is not the case. An illustration from the previous source:

Of the 136 cases of sexual assault 8 (5.9%) were coded as false reports, 61 (44.9%) did not proceed to any prosecution or disciplinary action, 48 (35.3%) were referred for prosecution or disciplinary action, and 19 (13.9%) contained insufficient information to be coded (see Table 2).

There is a small minority of claims that we can be reasonably sure are false. There is a slightly less small minority of claims that we can be reasonably sure are true. The vast majority fall into a grey area, that we do not know whether they are true or false.

In other words, it is just as false to say "Only 6% of rape claims are proven false, so the rest are true" as it is to say "Only 10-15% of rape claims are proven true and result in conviction, so the rest are false."

C. The 6% figure includes mistaken accusations, where the accuser was raped but mistakenly accused the wrong person. The real false claim rate is much lower.

The 6% figure does not include mistaken accusations.

Moreover, commencing in 1989 in cases of rape and rape-murder where there has already been either arrest or an indictment, the FBI has conducted large numbers of DNA tests “to confirm or exclude the person. In 25 percent of the cases where they can get a result, they excluded the primary suspect.”

D. The 6% figure includes false negatives.

In fact:

To classify a case as a false allegation, a thorough investigation must yield evidence that a crime did not occur.

“Evidence that the assault did not happen” might include, for example, physical evidence and/or statements from credible witnesses that contradict key aspects of a victim’s account. Such evidence would be distinct from more general “credibility” evidence, for example, a delayed report; an apparent inconsistency in the victim’s statement

It is not impossible that a rape claim was indeed true, yet classified as false. But there also have been documented 1 2 cases of rape convictions that have ultimately ended in exoneration and proof that the claim was false (not merely mistaken, but false).

E. Most rape claims, true or false, do not result in conviction. Therefore, false rape claims are not as serious and harmful as rape.

It is a logical certainty that the worst and rarest cases of false claims - ones that result in imprisonment and rape in prison - are worse than rape. But one need not be convicted to face serious harm.

One redditor describes their story:

I didn't go outside for six months after that one. People are so fucking funny. I mean, I dropped out of college, I still have anxiety six years later and it severely fucked up my entire life but, really, good fucking joke.

If you were told the poster was talking about being the victim of either rape, or a false rape claim, it would be difficult to determine which without context.

Consider the case of Sean Lanigan, a teacher who was accused of molestation with the claim later being shown false:

Police issued a press release with Lanigan’s booking photo and home address, and the school district sent home a letter about his arrest.

You can imagine what happened to his career.

It is unusual for false rape claims to result in conviction. It is not unusual for false rape claims to result in serious harm to the victim, whether it be emotional, financial, or even physical harm.

It is important to note that even unofficial false rape claims to friends, family, employer, school etc. - which are not recorded in statistics - can result in serious harm to the victim.

F. MRAs want rape accusers to be prosecuted for false claims if they cannot prove they were raped.

MRAs want proven false rape accusers to be punished harshly, to deter false rape claims. That does not mean that any rape accusation which fails to result in conviction will trigger a prosecution for a false rape claim. This persistent myth is a strawman, seemingly spread to bash MRAs.

G. False rape claims occur at the same rate of other crimes.

I have seen many, many people make this claim. I even once saw someone claim

In contrast

to rape's 6-8% false accusation rate, most other crimes have a 15-20% false accusation rate.

Not one person has ever provided a source - because no such source exists (to my knowledge).

The only source I have seen that compares false claim rates is this:

The “unfounded” rate, or percentage of complaints determined through investigation to be false, is higher for forcible rape than for any other Index crime. Eight percent of forcible rape complaints in 1996 were “unfounded,” while the average for all Index crimes was 2 percent.

It is true their classification of unfounded is not the same as proven false - but this is only the source that compares apples to apples (the unfounded rate of rape, and the unfounded rate of average all other crimes).

H. Most rapes do not result in conviction, due to lack of evidence or lack of a report. We should focus on rape, not false rape claims.

Rape victims have a variety of resources that they can avail on for help. Rape crisis centres, hotlines, counselling centres, etc. There is a lot of government money dedicated for helping victims of rape. In England, the government even pays rape victims 11 thousand quid as a standard (they pay most victims of crime - but false rape claim victims get no money).

In contrast, victims of false rape claims have close to nothing. Community of the Wrongly Accused is the only group I know that aims to help victims of false rape claims.

(The Innocence Project - a laudable organization - aims to exonerate all innocent people convicted of crimes, and are not focused on helping false rape claim victims)

We as a society can - and in my opinion, should - help victims of both rape, and false rape claims.

It helps no one - save false rape accusers - to marginalize or deny the existence and significance of false rape claims as an issue.

TLDR:

  • At least 6% of rape claims are false
  • The vast majority of rape claims are unknown whether they are true or false
  • The 6% figure does not include mistaken accusations where the accuser was raped but named the wrong defendant
  • The 6% figure only includes those cases where there is strong proof it was false
  • False rape claims often result in serious harm, even the ones that do not end in conviction
  • Punishing false accusers does not mean that a genuine rape accuser would be prosecuted if they could not prove they were raped
  • False rape claims are 4x more common than false claims of other crimes
  • Rape victims receive a lot of help, but false rape claim victims receive virtually none - this should be changed.
 
Let see, last time his girl was pregnant he took time away to get coked up, drunk, hang out in shitty clubs all the time. Oh and get in bar fights with gangsters and then invite them over to his girl and babies house to come get him. All while weirdo fanboys praised him for taking time off to be a good father.

Getting arrested while his girl takes care of one baby and is pregnant with another seems like a natural progression. It's just him stepping up his game so he can truly be the immature weirdo Mcgregor fanboys Dad of the century.
 
That's a garbage tabloid. It's Shane O'Connor who was liable/accused for that rape incident. Not Conor McGregor.
if you actually had read everything you see clearly, that Conor was named, multiple times, you dummy
 
Police found her bruised and battered with bloodied clothes. That sounds fake to you?



It's absolutely not the same case, you idiot.

This rape and battery occured last month. The rugby player was accused of raping a woman in june 2016.

Seems like it. I was linked to the an old case. But it is the same story again, that there is no name mentioned in the article, but other people have inserted Conor's name and seemingly made up some other stuff and put it in the same story to make it juicier.

This is the Irish Times article they refered to.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.irishtimes.com/news/crime-and-law/sportsman-arrested-over-alleged-sex-assault-in-dublin-1.3762529?mode=amp

Also, bud, no need to be rude. Mistakes will be made if people don't clearly tell you the whole story.
 
Strange how no Irish websites are reporting it.
Clearly a conspiracy or some bullshit clickbait story which isn't true linked by the TS, hard to work out which......
Irish media cannot name suspects cause of privacy laws, he has to be convicted first

So where is the proof it's actually Conor and not some other athlete?
 
If it is found and proven (which seems to be the case), this is a huge tarnish on his rep and if he was falsely accused, the people reporting and person accusing hopefully gets charged for slander like how Hulk Hogan brought down Gawker.
 
So what’s the general consensus here? Is this Conor or not?
 
It's not even the actual source, it refers to the irish times. So I looked that article up.and it's the exact same article as in another thread about this subject except no name of the accused, but in the other thread they edited the article and put Conor and his sister's name in it. This really is getting out of hand. Mods should delete these threads.
hell no, i started this thread with a source with multiple links that it was conor and not shane or another athlete.
 
Is this shit true? Not that he raped anyone, but is it true that his dna was taken and that there's a complaint that he might be involved?
You can't find anything about this anywhere else, I call bullshit on this one.
