    At least the OP can prove they were away.

    Pity the poor sap who has no alibi for the alleged incident.   What then for them?
    How's it going, AKA, Nutwatch? - 12 month spends to date = 3.24% of current retirement "pot" (as at end December 2025)

    Guilt or innocence is only an issue in criminal cases. In civil cases, ultimately a judge has to decide whose version of events is more plausible. There is no presumption of fault on either side.
