These flaws allowed him to use his brilliance to manipulate people to do his bidding and to compartmentalize people into isolated cells in which none had complete information about his activities. These were not his only flaws, and Dr. Dietz is also prepared to address Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual behavior should it prove relevant. d. Opinions Related to the Multiple Pathways to False Sex Assault Allegations Studies concerning the accurate reporting of alleged sexual assaults undermine the assertions made by Dr. Rocchio to the extent they are based on uncorroborated allegations and are also otherwise relevant here. False allegations of sexual assault do occur, and there are multiple pathways to these false allegations of sexual assault. Not all allegations of sexual assault are true. Unfortunately, there has been little work on understanding the prevalence of false allegations or pathways to these, particularly in a sample most relevant to a jury—currently adjudicated cases. A peer reviewed journal article has proposed 11 pathways to false allegations of sexual assault: (a) lying, (b) implied consent, (c) false memories, (d) intoxication, (e) antisocial personality disorder, (f) borderline personality disorder, (g) histrionic personality disorder, (h) delirium, (i) psychotic disorders, (j) dissociation, and (k) intellectual disability. Jessica Engle and William O’Donohue, Pathways to False Allegations of Sexual Assault, 12 J. Forensic Psychology Practice, 97. These pathways originate in the psychological proclivities or state of the individual making these false allegations. The article by Engle and O’Donohue (2012), which was published before the latest edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders but nonetheless remains accurate in characterizing certain personality disorders. Lying: Lying involves the alleged victim knowingly making a false claim of sexual assault. Humans do lie, and their lies can be difficult to detect. Often, humans lie because of what they perceive as the favorable consequences for lying; for sexual assault these consequences could be: 1. the severe negative consequences that the alleged perpetrator experiences, 2. secondary gain from victim status, 3. excusing behaviors or characteristics of the alleged victim (e.g., sexual activity, pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases) 4. financial gain. Implied Consent: A fact finder’s determination of whether consent was competently given is often problematic, and some allegations are regarded as unfounded or false based on determinations regarding consent before cases reach the stage of adjudication.
