John Leslie has been accused again of attacking a woman.

http://news.sky.com/skynews/article/...319952,00.html

The alleged incident is said to have occurred 13 years ago in 1995.

He made a statement today in which he said he does not know who this woman is and he is being asked to recall his actions on a night in November 1995. How can anyone remember what they were doing on a given night 13 years ago?

He says how in 2003 his name was dragged through the mud and his career ruined due to similar allegations. The media vilified him....why did this woman not come forward then? Why wait until now?

Back in 2003 a judge discharged him from court having thrown all allegations out and told him he was free to leave the court without a stain on his character......not so as now it looks like the whole thing has started again.

He said if he sounds bitter it's because he is. His name is yet again being dragged through the mud whilst the woman remains anonymous, as the law allows.

I'm not surprised he's bitter. I don't think that people should be able to make allegations of rape 13 years after the event, do you?
