Teacher Cleared of Sexual Assault Charges

25 year old Hannah McIntyre was just a trainee teacher when three young men accused her of having sexually assaulted one of the guys in the group after they came to her house and got drunk with her. However, Hannah had a totally different story to tell the judge when she went to trial just this week. While the boys said they got drunk on cider at her house, the sixteen year olds actually barged into her house already drunk, asking to let them in. "I asked them to leave," Hannah told the court. "I said they shouldn't be here and told them to be on their way.
I wanted to be non-confrontational because I didn't want to provoke a reaction. But they just took no notice." The entire game of dares absolutely never happened, but cider was bought by Hannah, in hopes that when she gave them the bottle, they would just leave, but no such luck. She finally gave up, and retired to the bedroom to avoid the gang, as "By this point I was very anxious and bed seemed to be the best hiding place." The steamy sex that they supposedly had was actually the drunk man coming upstairs, poking her and making obnoxious sex noises, before passing out drunk on the floor, which was followed with her having a panic attack in regards to having these maniacs her house. While some articles say otherwise, she clearly states she "would like to see the boy prosecuted", as she used to work at Merchant Crosby, a good private school, but is now "inexpressively angry" that her life and career are in tatters after the accusation.

This is an absolutely horrifying story, and I am quite glad that I had in some ways expected this to be completely ficticious. Of course, his motive was to deflect from his bad behaviour by blaming it on someone else. I think he should definitely be prosecuted, and that this kind of behaviour is disgusting and an embarassment to the legal system. The fact these allegations were completely fraudelent, obviously, as she has already been cleared of her charge, and they were still able to get her to lose her job and reputation is horrifying. I feel very sorry for this woman, and I desperately hope that he gets what he deserves, but more so that she gets her life back. To see the article, click here.
