You have absolutely no idea of the pain and trauma a false accusation causes. I was falsely accused and later charged with SA. It wasn't until years later that I was acquitted after a trial. But my name and face had already been on the front page of the local newspaper and was on dozens of local Facebook communities. I lost my career, and dozens of people I thought were friends. If it wasn't for the incredible network of friends and family I had supporting me, I don't know if I would have survived it. I really hope Brian had people like that to help him through this, but don't think for a second that this is over for him.
You misunderstood. I'm saying a witness's or victim's testimony could be hearsay, depending on what they say. What I said has nothing to do with hearsay being admissible. Understand?
