The above letter to DPP Alison Saunders from Julia Hilliard of the grandly titled Justice For Women concerning Eleanor de Freitas is unreal. Alexander Economou spent over two hundred grand proving he hadn’t raped this woman and attempting to drag her into court to hear a jury say so that he might broadcast it to the world, and he appears to have wasted every penny.
Alison Saunders has made some terrible decisions since she was appointed DPP, but the prosecution of Eleanor de Freitas was not one of them. If bad acts do not have bad consequences, people will keep doing them. That applies as much to women who cry rape falsely as to men who rape women, and indeed to every other crime in the book.
Justice For Women has supported a number of false rape accusers including convicted murderess Jane Andrews and convicted murderess Zoora Shah.
