Is it possible that that's the case PaulRobinson was referring to? A few years earlier than he thinks but it's plausable no?



Someone else gave that link: https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/over-400-london-cab-dr...

Over 400 that same year he quoted.


That's crimes though, not rape prosecutions, which is different to the original posters claim.


Possibly, but as mattlondon's sibling comment alludes to, the statement of a single rape prosecution in more than 300 years is still a long way from the truth.


Yet no-one's managed to come up with evidence of it being false. Perhaps less knee jerk "I can't believe that!" and more checking facts before discounting comments
