The false accusation of a sexual crime is itself a crime, devastating to the lives of victims. Even when they’re able to prove their innocence the damage from the lie lingers, permanently tarnishing reputations, destroying careers, tearing families apart, triggering both suicide and murder. Register-her.net is dedicated to raising awareness of the problem and to putting perpetrators in the public eye. ...

Nobody knows exactly how often false accusations of sexual crimes happen. The research is varied. Some data suggests between 2%-10%*. Some estimates are much higher.** Regardless of what percentage is correct, or the reasons*** it happens, we know that like rape, one false accusation against an innocent person is too many. The impact is devastating. Unfortunately, our system of criminal justice, our politicians and our media don’t take the problem seriously, so little is done about it. One woman actually made 15 false claims of rape before legal action was taken against her.****

It is in the public interest to create and permanently maintain a registry identifying these threats to society.
