@dander @VooDooMedic I'm pretty sure this happens in American courts too. I've had experience with insane lies in family court. The whole bureaucracy largely just boils down to "he said, she said." And we know men are selfish lazy dogs and women are helpless heroines.
It's mostly set up for the woman to turn the man in to the state so the state can suck his bloo.... er, I mean get his money.
