Just a guess, but it may be based off of situations where the accuser eventually admits to fabrication or is otherwise exposed as having fabricated the claim. I can think of a handful of cases in the last couple of years around NYC where that happened, although in each the accusation was at a vague character (6'2" 185lbs or something like that) and came from a woman who appeared to be suffering from some mental illness.
