When an accuser alleges hundreds of identical assaults but their real-life actions—from planning a family to praising their partner—completely contradict their stated state of mind, how should the court react? We dive deep into the dangerous intersection of family law disputes and criminal charges, exploring where the legal principle against "myth-based reasoning" ends and basic human common sense begins. Are courts becoming too terrified to call out patently absurd testimony? Plus, we take a brief, existentially terrifying detour into the end of the universe. **Sponsored by EasyDNS:** Secure your domain and web hosting with a provider that has a 30-year track record.
