If you really were innocent, it sounds like you were tricked into taking a "deal"

because, that's not beyond a reasonable doubt...

Story started as that I attempted to rape a nine year old girl. Which I had proof by my employer that I was at work at the time it supposedly took place. And lie detector test on both me and the kid showed it didn't happen. So it became a sodomy charge on a different day. But I didn't work that day and couldn't disprove that I couldn't have done it. But no lie detector test for me or the kid for that one. And the kid refused to go on stand. Prosecutor claimed it was cause she was too traumatized to talk about it.

lie detecter tests arent admissible in court...

They are if they provide evidence against you.

you can take one sure, but it does nothing

no you legit cant use them

so who is this girl?

why do you know her?

T is right. And it's because there is zero scientific about polygraphs.

i come from a family of lawyers, and im no stranger to the courts from all my fighting.

It amounted to the mother going on the stand claiming that her daughter told her I did this in private, but wouldn't give a statement to the police cause she was scared of them.

So the mom reported me and made the claim on her own. And the judge ran with it.

Woman is my cousins ex wife.

The judge ran with it? What do you mean by that?

the judge ran with you? you mean the prosecutor?

cousin's ex wife. did you babysit for them or something?

I mean that the only evidence against me was what the mother claimed, with no supporting evidence from the girl.

like if you never interacted with them, then thats easier to show

No babysitting. I live about 60 miles from them. Roughly.

so what was her motivation to do this?

Only interactions was in seeing them at my grandmothers during christmas.

That's just it. I don't know why.

But oddly enough, my cousin, the ex husband, went to prison for three years for also touching his daughter. At the mothers word.

I don't know if there was actual evidence against him, but my granma kept me pretty well up to date on what all was happening with him.

interesting. so did they allege a certain sex act or something?

On him?

Claimed that he exposed himself and told her he was going to "put it in her".

No with you

With me the original claim was that I had attempted to stick my dick in her.

Then became "oh she was confused. He used his fingers."

Cause an adult penis would surely leave some kind of evidence on a nind year old's vagina. But rape test came back negative. No biological material, no compacting, no tearing or bruising, no stretching.

so they actually did an exam. so what fingers wouldnt do the same?

or similar

Presuming fingers wouldn't I guess.

so did you take a plea deal?

whereby you plead guilty

Yeah. Took a plea deal for a lesser crime with a lesser sentence. Cause jury trial for sodomy of a child is up to 45 years in prison.

Molestation is 7 years.

did you not have enough money to go trial?
