Whilst it's true that congenital liars, illegal immigrants, and blackmailing individuals working in the service industry can be raped, it would be a pretty inadequate political 'sting' to fit him up using an individual whose story can be so easily collapsed on questioning.

So there remains the possibility of a cottage industry of blackmail simply conducted by the accuser and her partner in prison, between whom large amounts of money were flowing.

Should such a person be deported? - Damned Right, and put on the first boat home
- alternatively, placed in US State Prison on a long, long sentence;
any man's life damaged by these accusations should bring about a severe sentence, but to do this to a world leader and potential national president demands extreme sanction.

It's a good job - for her - that she chose a country for her new life that does not invoke Sharia Law .
