Advice needed - falsely accused of sexual harrasment
Comments
-
Anyway when I come to think of it won't be sexual harassment It'll be Indecent assault, too many flaws in the OP's story for my liking.
I think this is a pretty good point.
By definition, 'harassment' is something that happens repeatedly or continually - not in the 'one-off' circumstances described by the OP, unless of course he makes a habit of falling asleep on the train next to this same woman and his hand is in the habit of falling on this same woman's 'body part'.
I'm not convinced that a charge of 'sexual harassment' would be brought by the CPS for the incident as described.
Although the OP says:
he's presumably copying them from the paperwork he (allegedly) received at the Police stationI don't understand what these legal terms areI have a paper which says that they will file charges on 00 June
So OP - is the charge 'Sexual Harassment' or is it something else?0 -
Was she a bit foxy or a complete pig?
If she was a pig, use that as a defence.

so you touched her up (whilst sleep walking)and she called the police god some people are paranoid these days shes proabbly ageist
use the cctvReplies to posts are always welcome, If I have made a mistake in the post, I am human, tell me nicely and it will be corrected. If your reply cannot be nice, has an underlying issue, or you believe that you are God, please post in another forum. Thank you0 -
I think I mentioned incorrectly, it should be assault not harassment as I dont know the lady, let alone do something on a regular basis. I can certainly say my hand defo would not reach areas like crotch, etc those areas are way too far. Only the parts which are near when you are sitting to someone nearby like ankles, hips. I only woke up from sleep when some policeman woke me up. Whats upsetting that there were many people on the train, why didnt anyone say anything?
The police says they will look at CCTV, I dont know what they will find out since it doesnt have audio and is black and white.
All I can just ask from you forum members would be for you to pray for me. Prayers are my only hope since I dont have much faith on the legal system as you would read in news that people commit big crimes get away and those who do petty crimes get done for. I myself swear on anything that I havent done anything indecent intentionally.0 -

Even more unbelievable...you say you could reach her ankles and her hips but not her crotch! What's audio and B&W got to do with anything! How do you know nobody said anything...you were supposedly sleeping deeply enough that you didn't realise the police were in front of you!0 -

I think it's got everything to do with the fact the OP is a troll...If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands

Harassment requires a course of conduct consisting of at least two incidents. What happened, according to the OP, would be a single incident, and could not be considered in itself to be harassment.Regards,

Maybe he followed her (in his sleep) through the numerous carriages of the train (would he know if he was sleeping?) and accidently touched her more than once perhaps?0 -
Good job he wasn't on a Ryanair flight or he would have been charged extra for inflight entertainmentApproach her; adore her. Behold her; worship her. Caress her; indulge her. Kiss her; pleasure her. Kneel to her; lavish her. Assert to her; let her guide you. Obey her as you know how; Surrender is so wonderful! For Caroline my Goddess.0

Mentioned it incorrectly?
What you mean is you've been rumbled as a troll.
As I said in an earlier post:
Do the sensible thing - get legal advice.
Unless of course, you ARE a troll, in which case - get lost!
I advise the latter.
Pray for you?
Don't make me laugh.
I reserve my sympathy (and any prayers) for someone who deserves it - not some wind-up merchant who can't even think up a plausible story.0
