False claims can hurt a person mentally and financially. False accusations can destroy lives. Shock, withdrawal, and panic are different stages of being falsely accused of rape. They may lose their sense of self-worth, their respect, their friends, their partner, and their freedom.

It is a horrible reality that people lie about being raped to get revenge or to hurt someone.
