Typical witch hunt! Mills denied everything and she literally said no assault happened. What more do you need? 🙄

Looking at the timeline: (1) Woman reports assault (2) Police observe "fresh bruises" (3) Police hear Mills telling her to lie about bruises (4)

Then she recants. That sequence matters.

But she said she got bruises from traveling. People get bruises all the time!

This case highlights why mandatory investigation laws exist. Studies show ~70% of DV victims recant initial statements due to pressure or fear. The policy isn't perfect but serves a protective function.

The REAL story is that a congressman allegedly instructed someone to lie to police. That's witness tampering - a separate crime entirely from the assault allegation.
