Allegations of Historic Sexual Offences are very difficult to defend, simply by virtue of the age of any evidence that has survived, the normal lack of any evidence of a reliable nature and the vagaries of human memory.
Some individuals may remember events clearly and in great detail whereas others may have little or no recollection.
Such case are frequently prosecuted with very little or no forensic or physical evidence and more often than not, it very difficult for individuals being investigated or charged with such offences to disprove the damaging allegations which they face.

It is imperative that expert legal advice is sought as soon as possible to enable your position to be protected as far as is possible.
