What Evidence Can Help Defend A False Sexual Allegation?

The evidence that most often helps defend a false sexual allegation includes messages and call records, location data, CCTV, witness accounts and documentary records, examined together and in context. No single item usually decides a case: the defence task is to build the full picture, as early as possible. 

To understand how these cases arise, see why false sexual allegations happen. 

What types of evidence are most important? 

Investigators look at the overall picture rather than any single item. Common types of evidence include: 

1. Text messages and social media communication 
2. Phone records and location data 
3. CCTV or third-party footage 
4. Witness accounts 
5. Work, travel or financial records
