Agreed on crazy women, I have known guys who were "attacked" by ladies who were regretful or spiteful and things can get ugly quickly.  Professionals trained in these cases are pretty good about weeding out the crazy and the regretful women and clearing a guy accused of assault or rape.

In the JW case, the girl had the presence of mind to seek medical attention shortly after the attack.  She cooperated with police and they failed her.  FSU's investigation is probably more like most schools where the students do the work without knowing anything about what they do and end up covering up for the school.  (See above posts.)  There is an impression that serious investigation and serious issues are addressed but from a legal perspective and a victim advocacy perspective, it is a farce and often interferes with proper investigations.

In the case of the article with the lady carrying the bed, she was scared and failed to come forward.  Her best evidence is that there are several other women that were assaulted by the same guy and the Columbia U. is failing to take the allegations seriously.  There is no indication that the police have been asked to investigate, only a comment that the NYC police have made no arrest.  What is telling here is that Columbia U. had the student body decide the issues instead of professionals investigating the accusations.
