Eleanor Williams
I've just been reading an article about the rape fantasist, Eleanor Williams, a 22-year old girl from Barrow. Williams inflicted injuries on herself with an hammer and took photographs of her injuries claiming she'd been raped. These photographs were then posted on social media. She accused multiple men of having raped her and concocted stories about Asian grooming gangs, which led to serious racial unrest in the community. These allegations led to some men being imprisoned and had a devastating effect on their lives and their families.
The police say that cases of women making false allegations about rape, are rare, but they're certainly not unheard of. Rape is a serious issue and it's a crime that is mainly perpetrated by some men. We don't generally read about women raping men on lonely canal towpaths or when they're out walking. But why some women make false allegations about rape, is an interesting psychological subject in itself. Williams who was found guilty of perverting the course of justice and is due to be sentenced, is certainly an interesting psychological specimen for study.
