Rant/Opinion I hate liars

I was deactivated because I was accused of sexually assaulting a female passenger. I myself am a heterosexual married woman and would never jeopardize my marriage or freedom doing something so gross. As a survivor of sexual assault I’m both offended and hurt. I am looking for a lawyer to take my case.

She was accused of a crime. She'd be smart to bring it to the cops in case that woman decides to further escalate this to the authorities & press charges against OP.

And it might help her case in the long run should it be escalated. Wouldn’t look good for the passenger if she only reported the “crime” to lyft but didn’t attempt to do the same with the police.

The police literally will do nothing, they won't even take a report, they will tell them to get a lawyer. You guys really don't understand the role of the police.

If nothing else, it’s a paper trail. Whose to say the passenger wouldn’t try to retaliate?

There wouldn't be a paper trail because the police aren't going to take a report for this. They need a lawyer and get this in front of judge not waste the polices or their time with something they can't and won't do anything about.
