Thankfully, here in the UK, it's not usually quite as bad as you've described it.If you are falsely accused, at least in the US.... you are incarcerated often without bail until your trial. Which on average is about 4 years away. Your attorney's fees will bankrupt your family if they can afford to pay one at all.
You lose pretty much every thing you have, you lose years with your family and children, miss births and deaths and weddings.... all because someone falsely accused you.
If you would go through all that rather than letting a guilty person free, you are a better person than I am. Though, in many cases there is no guilty person and the accusations are entirely fabricated.
Sorry, I know it's a touchy subject for me. I've actually seen families destroyed by this and there is no way I'd choose to put my own family through it. Watching a baby become a toddler while an innocent parent misses it all is heartbreaking.
Horrible, terrible and yes, some falsely accused do suffer and I'd never want any innocent person or their families to suffer.
