It wasn't a moral assessment, but rather a logical one. And my assessment was correct. You are displaying unwillingness or incapacity to accept the wide range of possible explanations for the events in question. You have no actual evidence to support your claim of what is most likely.

He's a hypocrite.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)

One other thing, I presume the lawsuit was dismissed without prejudice. In America, that means they can refile it at any time with good cause. And she may very well do that.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night.

Occam's razor doesn't apply to this case. Your implication that it does displays your ignorance of what Occam's razor is. For it to be applicable in the way you have implied you used it, we would have to presuppose that all possibilities included her lying about the incident. That is clearly not the case.

IN AMERICA, even if one files a DISMISSAL WITHOUT PREJUDICE (ON THEIR OWN) THEY CAN REFILE AT ANY TIME.

You think Occam's razor is helpful in determining between "she's lying" and "she's telling the truth" in a rape allegation. It's not. When there is a lack of empirical evidence the factors in explanations on either side can always be reduced to the same number/complexity.
You have presupposed she's lying. That is just your bias.
Since you made the claim I passed moral judgement, I will do so now. You are showing yourself to be a misogynist by adopting the tried and true method of discrediting rape allegations by impugning the character of the alleged victim and making light of the possible blowbacks they face.
