A lot of people think its a conspiracy. Nothing to nail him so they think of something.

but does that mean that if one day he really rapes someone and just because he is leaking news and the rape is false and its a conspiracy.

However with what I have said, I believe that 80% its just a conspiracy to nail him in jail for long time. The other 20%, maybe some smoke because of fire
