East Lancashire woman who made up rape jailed
5:45pm Friday 10th September 2010 in Foulridge By Wendy Barlow, Court reporter
FALSE CLAIM: Elizabeth Wilkinson spread vicious lies, it was said
A WOMAN who falsely claimed she had been raped has today been jailed for a year.
Elizabeth Wilkinson's allegation resulted in the arrest of an innocent father of two.
The court heard it was all because he had rejected her days after they had consensual sex.
Wilkinson, 21, formerly of Foulridge, and now of Tinkerbrook Close, Oswaldtwistle, first spread her 'vicious lies' about him to people who knew him.
Then she called in police last September and carried on lying even when confronted with the truth and given the chance to change her story.
The real victim in her campaign, David Lord, 23, who had had his fingerprints and DNA taken, lived a nightmare for a month before being told no action was being taken against him by police.
After the case Mr Lord, who now lives in Manchester, said the claims turned his life 'upside down'.
Mr Lord, who said he had had to fight to see his children in the past, said his first thought was for them and not himself.
The dad of two said he had to be put on medication for severe depression and tried to kill himself, once by hanging.
He added: "I just couldn't handle it. Mud sticks."
Mr Lord added: "I think she deserved to go prison for what she put my children through."
He said he now wanted closure and hoped to start his life afresh.
Burnley Crown Court was told the pair, who knew each other from school, had had intercourse at Mr Lord's then home in Colne after Facebook exchanges.
Wilkinson went on to bombard Mr Lord with 80 text messages over a weekend and after she said she wanted to punch his face, he had told her he wanted nothing more to do with her.
Wilkinson had earlier admitted attempting to pervert the course of justice by making a false rape claim.
Sentencing her, Judge Beverley Lunt said rape was a repulsive crime and victims should be treated with every possible consideration by the justice system.
False allegations could have dreadful consequences, she said.
Mark Stuart, for Wilkinson, said she had difficulties and major issues that went back a long way and would need long term psychological therapy.

Last year, a man in Accrington was hounded to death because of false accusations by evil, conniving tossers like this woman! I have no sympathy whatsoever with the evil creature and none is warranted either. It's a power trip, she knew she was hurting someone and their family and obviously didn't care less. Evil in other words.
.
Tragically, they know they can rely on the law/police to believe their made up tales and they know it as well!

Hope she is now happy wallowing in her prison cell knowing that she has ruined a young mans life as even though no action was eventually taken against him it will be down on police records and he will even have to declare it on any CBR checks he may have to have done for any jobs that may need them in the future
Hope this specimen is proud of herself..

it is hard enough to bring a prosecution for rape as it is and she has just set progress back because of her pathetic self-pity.

A: A mangina is an emasculated male who defers and caters to women. He has no spine to tell a woman NO. He feels ashamed of his sexuality and often condemns other men on behalf of women.
Mangina symptoms:
You can't say NO to women
You rarely confront a women or stand against her in a disagreement
When you disagree with someone, you usually complain about how the person makes you feel You find yourself constantly trying to compromise with women
You side with women on any social issue (Tiger Woods v. Elin, Mel Gibson v. Oksana, Tim Rothsberger v. gold digging skank)
You condemn and criticize men while excusing and praising women
You were raised by a single mother
You put women on pedestals and think of them as angels or princesses
You think it's a "gentleman's" duty to pay for dates
You are constantly buying women dinners, drinks, gifts, movie tickets and getting nothing in return Women consider you to be a "nice guy" but never in a sexual/romantic way
You rely on sarcasm whenever possible because, like a woman, you don't want to be held accountable for your words
You think good grammar equates to intelligence (i.e., like a chick, you rely on appearance over substance)
You beat off to feminist media outlets like Gawker, TMZ, CNN and Jezebel
You ridicule authoritative behavior with terms like "macho," "douchebag" or "neanderthal"
You call men who ridicule women, misogynists
You define masculine behavior in terms of appearance
You think men are disgusting for talking about their sexual desires
You define things in terms of "nice" and "mean" like a chick
You have trouble attracting women
Women generally see you as a "good friend" but not as a romantic interest
You have a lot of female "friends"
You think women are qualified to serve in the military
You think women are qualified to play on male sports teams
You think it's sexist to make women cook or clean
You fault men for their aggressive sexuality and excuse women for irresponsibly taking advantage of their passive female sexuality
You assume women are just as sexual as men
You prefer being dominated by a woman in your relationships
You are usually the one getting dumped in your relationships
You think that women deserve the same pay as men, even though they don't work the same hours or in the same hazardous occupations
You believe that sexual accountability always falls on the man's shoulders
You believe that a woman can do everything a man can do
You believe that women are smarter than men
You support breast cancer and rape awareness while neglecting prostate cancer or sexual accountability for women
You condemn men for referring to women as "****" or "****" yet have no problem with women referring to men as "douchebags," "creeps," "pigs," "losers," "dorks" etc.
You fall down into the fetal position when you hear 4 letter words during a discussion/argument
You believe that a man should never hit a woman, but you excuse movies, ads and tv shows where men are physically assaulted
You worry more about how an argument is presented, like a chick, rather than the actual content of an argument
You consider yourself a feminist
You dye your hair black and grow your bangs really long
Your pants hug your balls so tightly, they could be spandex
You know more about fashion than most men
Like most chicks, you believe everything is relative and that there are no wrong answers, just "different opinions" You donate or belong to PETA
You refer to other men as "misogynists" or "homophobes"
You have no problem with seeing 2 fags making out, thinking this makes you progressive or hip
You condemn guys like Tiger Woods, Jesse James, Sean Connery, Christian Bale and Mel Gibson
You fear the wrath of women and never disagree with them in public
You complain to others to gain sympathy but never do anything about it
Examples of manginas:
Dr. Phil-- notorious mangina who continually shames and vilifies men on TV. Sides with women on virtually every issues. Blames men for failed relationships. Oprah's bottom ****.
Mystery ("pickup artist")-- advises men to dress like victorian fags and wear eyeliner to attract women. Reinforces "****" behavior by erroneously teaching men that women act like **** due to evolution. Blames men for failing to attract women.
Paul Elam-- self-annointed Men's Rights Activist "leader" who tries to shame and demonize other men who don't buy into his feminist homogenization of gender roles. This type of emasculated mangina is perhaps the worst of his breed as he purports to represent the male opinion, yet reinforces male emasculation through his ignorance of natural gender differences.
Barrack Obama-- even the oval office is no stranger to emasculation. Obama even posed for the cover of Ms. Magazine bragging about his feminist affliation. This mangina also created an unconstitutional Council on Women and Girls designed to benefit females while completely neglecting males.
Emo Kids-- Emo kids or "emo fags" represent today's directionless, apathetic youth. If they aren't cutting themselves or buying tighter pants, they're busy dressing and acting like women in their mannerisms and childish effeminiate opinions based on raw emotion.
Steve Harvey--This mangina wrote a book that teaches women how to train men. He epitomizes the mangina mentality that caters and defers to women. He usurps male authority on the behalf of females, believing his own gender to be stupid and incapable of managing their lives without female leadership.
Joe Biden-- This mangina is responsible for penning the Violence Against Women Act that gives women special gender status and entrenches them as professional victims in our legal system. He has also made public speeches supporting women and belittling men, even making light of being continually physically assaulted by his own sister.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt-- This actor perfectly captured the spirit of the mangina in 500 Days of Summer where he played an effeminate loser who catered and deferred to the woman he was chasing after. Not surprisingly, she dumped him. This mangina also sings songs as a woman in a pathetic attempt to gain female approval.
Ryan Seacrest-- Some have referred to him as the "ultimate fag" or the gay best friend. Although he claims to be straight, you wouldn't know it watching him insert a tampon on national TV each week as host of American Idol. He notoriously opposed Simon Cowell and gave an impassioned chick speech denouncing him as being "mean." I think you get the picture.

We have very low conviction rates for rape in this country compared with many European countries. Rapists often get away with it to create yet more victims in the future.
Ms Wilkinson's victims therefore do not stop at poor Mr Lord. Next time a genuine rape victim in the area plucks up the courage to come forward she will have a harder time being believed.
