Either that or the police intimidated the victim into retracting her claims for the sake of quelling the riots.

'they now believe the woman concerned "sustained an accidental head injury" following a night out and made "a confused report".

Being gangraped is hardly the sort of thing a woman would get 'confused' about. This is absolutely outrageous.

A church built with stone. There is a sign in front of the building.

No rape took place outside Epsom church, say Surrey Police

The force says the woman concerned had injured her head on a night out and made 'a confused report'.

I'm inclined to believe the police here. It's not unheard of for women to fabricate stories like these. It's very rare, but not unheard of. The way those in the town used it to take to the streets makes me think it was set up in sort of way. The US had plenty of examples of white women falsely accusing men of colour of attacks to incite violence.

So you think that this woman purposefully gave her self a significant head injury, other injuries indicative of violent sexual assault, because she’s a nasty racist to get asylum seekers into trouble?

Why do you think the police are lying?

Why do you think they're not?

Presumably they checked CCTV, etc rather than just pressure the alleged victim into staying quiet so they don’t have to bother investigating?

Foolish assumption

Bless your heart with that stance

Surrey Police. That fine upstanding force that - checks notes - accompanied a paedophile on trips to schools? That Surrey Police?

Surrey police also sided with my abuser after I showed them texts of him blackmailing and threatening me. Pitiful excuse of a police force.

I saw that and instantly thought “they’ve pressured her into a retraction”

Smells mighty off

The police think the British public are stupid but it's actually the police who are stupid.

That’s a scary read. They are actually using “ooo she’s misremembered it…”. “Ooo actually this significant head injury was an accident and/or she did it to herself”

Like being gangraped is the sort of thing a woman is ever going to 'get wrong', give us a fucking break. Police in the UK are just glorified hall monitors.
