"When Muir visited in person with that woman and another who'd filed a sexual assault complaint, "we had a discussion here in my office about the fact that there is false reporting that does take place," he said. "There are studies that have shown numbers are closer to 40 to 50 percent."
Later he emailed the woman a 2009 article about those studies, two of which used polygraph tests. One of those examined 1,218 reports of rape on Air Force bases in the 1980s and subjected 546 of those making allegations in "unresolved" cases to polygraphs.
"Twenty seven percent of these complainants admitted they had fabricated their accusations just before taking the polygraph or right after they failed the test," the Forensic Examiner article said. That study combined the finding with other results to come up with a false accusation rate of 45 percent."

With this written, you have now become the biggest douche bag on the interwebs. Education wise, you are probably the worst student to ever come out of The University of Montana. Hopefully, you will never produce offspring to contaminate the rest of the world.
And, to everyone else, please read the entire article.
Oh, he's a big Dartmouth grad, haven't you heard? Any he played flag football there too, making him an expert on the game.
