What happens when you are wrongfully accused of a sex crime?
Episode Transcript
Steve Waterkotte: Right. And you’ll see sometimes, and I’ve had cases, where you had two individuals engage in sexual acts or intercourse. Then, perhaps one of the individuals, female, wakes up the next morning, is embarrassed, is ashamed, and then levels an accusation against the person.
Then it becomes our client. We’re saying, “Whoa, whoa, whoa, here.” Sometimes there’s a motive or agenda behind it. And so again, that goes to what we’re trying to conduct. A thorough interview with the client. I’ve had a case where my client was accused of rape. And yet, the very next day, the alleged victim is texting my client about getting back to seeing each other again.
