A TV actress was facing a £230,000 court bill last night after falsely accusing her neighbour of having sex with a pig.
Her vile lie led to a humiliating police probe in which eight police officers raided the innocent pensioner’s house before he was subjected to intimate examinations and sample tests. And she now faces a mammoth bill after Mr Barkhuysen was awarded £32,080 damages by Mr Justice Warby with additional legal costs estimated at £200,000.Mr Barkhuysen objected to Hamilton fencing off part of the adjoining Tregolls Common, where she keeps pigs“That accusation set in train the actions of the police that followed: his arrest and detention, the seizure of his property, the intimate sampling and other steps.
Dad who killed daughter's sex abuser jailed for 40yrs after pleading guilty to save her having to testify “This resulted in harassment, defamation to various third parties and the most vile and false sexual allegations concerning an animal. “A long time before the pig incident I was warning the police about this woman making false allegations against me.
