Wow, can I be a victim of a false accusation?  For a million bucks,
they can say I raped Mother Teresa for all I care.


This goes way beyond a false accusation, Bo: the university essentially
tried this guy without his knowledge, pressured the alleged "victim" to
declare him guilty over and over against her will and then lied when she
wouldn't, and then notified him that he wouldn't be getting the
certification he'd earned over a criminal charge they'd pretty much
invented only after he'd paid for it in money, time and successful
effort. They broke their own internal codes in doing so, never mind

legal

contracts with the guy.

There were real criminals in that case. But the Gonzaga University officials were never charged with their crimes.


In any sane and decent country where the Federal Prosecutors were doing
their job the University officials would have been charged with conspiracy
to violate this man's civil rights, a criminal as well as a civil charge.

Indeed. Unfortunately the US Femernment believes that white men have no civil rights, so they ignore any and all harm done to white men. Criminal conspiracies agaisnt white men are never prosecuted.

While civil rights violations usually involve the government or an agent of
the government eg. a cop or any person acting in concert with a government
agent, Universities all receive funding from the government and must operate
under the Federal Laws in the USC as well as State criminal and civil law. I
didn't see the complaint or if it did include civil rights violations but
apparently this student won at trial and the jury should have awarded high
punitive damages due to the fact that members of the school administration
acted in a malicious and unlawful manner. Just because he was a student does
not give them the right to circumvent the law because they were accusing him
of a criminal offence. This wasn't a case of a student violating some school
rule.



There's nothing particularly absurd about him getting a million bucks

for

a seven year fight over that, considering legal fees. Let's guess...I
dunno, something mid-low, like 40K as average salary+benefits he could
have taken in on his earned certification over those seven years. That's
almost $300K. Then figure punitive damages, which the Supreme Court says
can be the same as the real damages, but no more, so--we're up to $600K,
now. 40% of award is not unusual for attorney's fees, so...hey, whaddya
know, we already got to a million bucks, and all the guy gets is double
what he should have earned, and that's guessing low, plus a little extra
for all the trouble of getting reamed up the ass by a bunch of

busybodies

who should have known better.
