The witness admitted to lying - Bruhn wasn’t merely found ‘not guilty’ - he was fully exonerated.

As a former detective who worked in the Sex Assault Squad (as well as Child Abuse, Homicide, Cold Case, and other units), I can tell you from direct experience that a significant proportion of reported sexual penetrations without consent turn out to be false allegations. False accusations are profoundly damaging, first to the innocent person wrongly accused, and second to genuine victims whose credibility is undermined when reports are later disproven.

I’ve investigated and arrested individuals responsible for some of the most serious and disturbing crimes (experiences I still find difficult to discuss). Today I investigate workplace sexual harassment and assault allegations for a large organisation, while also providing ongoing support to impacted persons with empathy, respect, and dignity throughout the process.

So when you make assumptions or lecture me based solely on one informed post - without knowing anything about my background or work - I take genuine offence at the characterisation. I remain deeply committed to seeking justice for real victims.

If you’d like verification of my previous police service or current role, feel free to message me privately and I’ll happily provide it.

The ex-police credentials combined with your attitude about ‘false allegations’ aren’t helping the case. But keep telling yourself you’re one of the good guys

They were proven false, people lied and the complaint was withdrawn - the matter didn’t make it to trial - I can’t explain it anymore plainly than that. There’s a difference between a matter being withdrawn due to it being identified as a false complaint and being found not guilty at trial. I’m unsure why you’re being so condescending - I was extremely passionate about my work and remain to be. But you sit behind your keyboard and continue doing something for the true victims by bashing those keys, while being consumed by emotions over facts (and the law) - I’ll carry on doing the actual hard work (that most can’t/wont do).
