Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

Can an ex-girlfriend who you slept with come back and say that you have raped her, even though you did not, just to get back at you for dumping her? Can girls lie about something like that and get away with it? Just curious.

Assuming she claims the sex was not consensual Yes of course. The dumping goes to her motivation for filing a false police complaint and her credibility. YOU are in serious need of a lawyer. 8183791777

Can it happen? Yes. Would the law be on her side? No. But sometimes people lie, and when they do sometimes others believe those lies.

Situations like the one you describe are not common, but they do happen. If this has happened to you, then you need a lawyer ASAP.
