The first accuser issued a statement through her lawyer, David Butt, in which the woman said she sticks by her story.
“The reason I will not engage in any more public discussion is that going public with this incident has exposed me to abuse on social media that no human being deserves,” she said.

Which is why this stuff shouldn't be made public to begin with. Make the complaint to the authorities and let them do their job.
Because as much as she says this is happening to her, here is what this fiasco has done to him...
Quote:
Brown, in an exclusive interview with Postmedia on Friday, called the allegations against him “absolute lies” that have devastated both his career and personal life. He said the “truth will come out” and that he’s contemplating legal action to defend his reputation.

So it appears that he never did anything wrong nor illegal, yet his career and life are left in complete shambles.
How is this OK with people?
How would it not be MILES better to allow these women who feel they have been wronged, to go to the police and make the complaints, allow the crown to do their due dilligence, and then decide what did or did not happen?
What is looking to have happened to Brown here, (with whats now appearing to be no evidence or even basis) is absolutely disgusting.
The mob mentality on this subject was always going to roll over innocents along the way, and it seems no one on that train cared. Brutal.
The worst part though is that I fear its going to end up hurting real victims of abuse and harassment in the end.
