There is no way to discern the actual events, and the accepted narrative is a useful bludgeon.
Yeah, but the woman in question has a memoir called "More Than A Wolf Whistle" so there's that. You're right, though. The narrative is that she recanted, even though she and an eye witness to the interview this info came from both deny it.
It isn't out of the ordinary to go write a book of your fictional victim narrative. I haven't read it, and I'm not saying she wasn't assaulted, but the real details are lost now.
