CHARGED with two counts of Rape!!!!!!!!

[Arsenal12]

Sorry I have not been on here for a few weeks.....for those of you that know me.....( Hello8,lilyput,RF,amanda etc)....

I have an update

I have some really awful news after 14 months on conditional bail I have now been CHARGED with TWO counts of Rape.


(False allegations made by my ex wife and mother of my Children for those of you who do not know)


To say I'm shocked is an understatement.........


I'm really hacked off right now.......

My legal aid solicitor was very surprised... Too at the charge......


On my charge sheet it did not state when exactly the Alleged offence took place!!!!!....only .....Apparently I raped her over a time span of 4 weeks for one count and the other count was over a time span of 8 weeks.........!!!!!!



So I'm due to go to court next month....I'm slowly but surely losing faith...........the criminal justice system is simply laden with corruption......... And stereotypical views..........


So now I'm staring at the possibility of being wrongfully convicted of raping my ex wife..........


Words cannot describe the emotions I'm feeling...... anguish.....anger......sadeness.........betrayal.. ...


These powerful words do not even scratch the surface........

And on top of all this......still no contact with my Children for over 14 months.....still going through financial settlement.........


This is literally never ending.........

In life there are not many tougher hardships than ........cancer...or terminal illness......... Bereavement........etc..........

But I can honestly say that the horrendous experience of being falsely accused of such a hideous crime and the earthquake effect that it has on ones life is as equally as difficult as the hardship mentioned above, if not MORE DIFFICULT.....


This is torturing.....brutality...... And institutional corruption at its ugly best........


I cannot help but think of the amount of tax payers money that has been wasted on my file.....let alone thousands that are falsely accused.......


Right now for the first time in my life I feel a little.....lost.....confused.........almost passive......... Maybe I'm In shock.......I don't know....... But what I do know is that I have two beautiful children with this evil inhumane woman and I must fight.........if not for me for them...........


Regards to everyone

Hello Arsenal 12,
Been following your posts. I know that you have been on this forum for quite some time.

I'm very sorry to hear that you have been charged.

I'll be saying a special prayer for you tonight.

Being charged is not the end.....
Being charged doesn't mean you'll be convicted

Keep the faith and try not to worry

Sending love and prayers your way xxxx

OMG!! I am so sorry to hear to hear this!!

There is NOTHING that compares with the trauma of false allegations in my opinion- I have known bereavement and at least there, there is closure, not this enduring everlasting nightmare.

The police are totally corrupt in these matters, only gaining evidence which they believe will secure a conviction. Our accusers changed their stories so many times, even during the trial.

Heartfelt sympathies that you have not seen your babies- that must be the worst thing of all.

I hope to god all ends well for you

Hi Arsenal

Dreadful news for you, but please do not lose faith. You have been charged and its truly an awful feeling. Its not the end , Ive read your posts your a fighter. Come on the fights on. you know you are innocent get everything you can get to prove it together. Sending positivity to you tonight and for the battle ahead, you can get through this.

[Lilyput]

My heart is literally breaking for you!! I was so sure it would be dropped as you were on bail for so long </3


Keep strong you are one of the strongest people I've talked to on here and kept me going many many times. You CAN win this get advice on a good solicitor and think of motives etc. I've not yet been where you are and I'm sure no words can help but inbox me whenever you need to talk.

What came of the malicious contact?

Edit sorry 'mailicious contact'

Sorry to see this hon. Have you got a good sol on board yet?

Sorry to see this hon. Have you got a good sol on board yet?

Thanks everyone for the support.......

I have been told I have a very good solicitor.......... I spoke to him today.....and he tells me until we get the "disclosure of allleged evidence against me he cannot really tell me what the likely outcome could be.........

He did reassure me that this is not a " typical Rape case" .....as in meet girl at a club or short term dating......get Accused etc.........

He said the fact we were married for over 6 years and have two children will play a big part..........one of the biggest flaws that I have unraveled myself is that..........


On my very first arrest last year........at the interview the Detective said that I had allegedly raped her on a particular day......when I responded and said "well actually I was working a 12 hour shift this day......he changed his words and " oh it may have been the day before.......... Of course this day I was at home all day...........



Any way...........so on my charge sheet it states I have been CHARGED with two counts of rape that apperently occured in 2014 ....spanning over a 4 to 8 week time period..........THIS IS CLEARLY INCONSISTENT with what that detective said as he was accusing me of raping her in 2015!!!!!!!!!!

How can this be credible!!!!!!!


Utter tosh to say the very least........


Lilyput as for the Malicious allegations I am still on bail for that..........


My solicitor tells me...... That I have a 1 in 4 chance of being convicted........ And tells me that it all goes down to who how I portray myself to the jury and make them believe that I am an unfortunate victim of vindictive evil false allegations...........


So 14 months in and the real fight is only just beginning............

So my first court date is may

Then

In June

Then my trial in October lasting around two weeks

It's going to be a very long dark journey................laden with huge obstacles........... Scorched with insitutional corruption

I've been told my trial will likely go ahead in October .................

I will persist,............

I will fight on.............

I will overcome my demons...........

I will remain disciplined........

I will conquer.............

I will fight...........


And I will win...............


If there is anyone who needs support I'd be more than happy to offer any


Kind regards
A12

Hi Arsenal,

Just caught this and I'm so sorry to read about this appalling development for yourself after such a long time on bail as well. It's admittedly an incredibly scary situation with your career, future & life all seemingly at stake. Maybe it's nothing unexpected with the CPS too happy to exercise their rudimentary low threshold test to charge the accused without proper due diligence so to speak and in this hideous current climate.

It's still up to them to prove their case against you in court and I'm sure you & your counsel stand a very good chance to shed doubt on these charges at the very least. Best of luck mate and really hope it ends positively for you in the end.

OMG I am so sorry Arsenal, my heart goes out to you x xxxxx x

There is nothing I can do or say to make anything better sadly I just hope you have a good sol.

so sorry xxxx

[innocentson]

So so sorry to read this Arsenal
Not a lot I can add, everyone has said it already but my thoughts will be with you.

As it gets closer to trial : do read all the posts from those that have been there ; good advice in many. I think one that helped me understand what to expect was from A Bad Dream (?). Think that was his logon name.

Best of luck !

Hello

So sorry to see this. Charge here too recently so totally understand the head spinning, disbelieving numbness. The police appear to have picked a random number to charge him with (historic case).

Until disclosures start coming through there doesn't feel like there is an awful lot to do but rage at the total injustice of it all.

Remember no one has actually challenged her story so far.

Keep going x

[Lilyput]

How are you doing hun?

[Lilyput]

Everything okay? Not heard from you for a while best of luck fighting this thing we're all behind you!

[Rights Fighter]

Arsenal - do we have to send out a search party for you?
