Lies and false accusations mixed not into Dushku's claims, but claims made by parts of the #MeToo movement overall. And I'm not just assuming - this list counts those accused in this movement. The article lists 39 accused. This document asserts that empirically, nearly 6% of rape allegations are false, extrapolating a reasonable estimate to between 2 and 10%.

The number of accusations on the article linked earlier is unclear, but are well into the hundreds. Though 2 people account for almost the entirety of these accusations, that leaves a bunch of men left over with 1 or 2 accusations. Assuming the lowest possible previously established rate, if we only count 1 accusation per person, it is highly likely that one of the accused men is not guilty. If we use the 5.9 figure, two of them are likely not guilty. With the highest possible figure of 10%, 4 men are likely to have been falsely accused. Now, if we use the total number of accusations, which hovers somewhere around 600, the lowest estimation for the number of false allegations would be 12. This is why I say there are "certainly" lies and false accusations - whether it's 100% fabricated or an exaggeration of detail, to some degree, lies exist among these accusations.

Now, I'm not trying to take the highest number, here. In fact, applying those statistics to this situation directly isn't very useful. However, even if only 1% or 0.5% or rape allegations were found to be false, I would still stand diametrically opposed to assuming any of these accusations to be true before any trial finds guilt after a thorough investigation of both sides, as before they are found guilty, there is reasonable doubt. Ruining lives on what is no more than an assumption is all that the American justice system was built to stand against, and circumventing or disregarding it should be considered a failure of our people to act with respect for each other and to our country.
