Retired colonel wins $8.4M lawsuit against woman who blogged that he raped her

Col. David “Wil” Riggins, after a highly-decorated Army career which included multiple tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, was on the verge of promotion to brigadier general in July 2013 when he got a phone call at the Pentagon from the Army Criminal Investigation Command to come in for a meeting. Once there, he learned that a blogger in Washington state had just accused him of raping her, when both were cadets at West Point in 1986. An investigation was underway.

Riggins waived his right to an attorney and immediately gave a statement denying any sexual assault of the woman, Susan Shannon of Everett, Washington. Shannon also cooperated with the CID investigation, which could not “prove or disprove Ms. Shannon’s allegation she was raped,” the CID report concluded. But in the spring of 2014, with the armed forces facing heavy criticism for their handling of sexual assault cases, Secretary of the Army John McHugh recommended removing Riggins from the list for promotion to general. Riggins promptly retired.

Regardless of his “winnings”, this is a reminder for men to think twice when alone with another woman. No amount of money will erase the anguish caused by false accusations. Now, I have no idea if this woman is telling the truth or not, since I did not witness it 1st hand, but it is a warning for men.

A tranquil mind is neither happy nor sad, it is uninfluenced by external conditions.

Nice. If she can now serve time, it would be justice. Juss-tease-ing lolz.

Women don’t go to prison for false allegations.

At least make the woman carry a mattress for a full year.

She won’t. Because Pussy Pass.

I’m surprised the news outlet even published her real name.

So there you go YOUNG FELLAS, be MORE THAN CAREFUL, about who you ‘associate’ with TODAY, in 30 years time, the woman you raped, or didn’t rape, will come back and ask for the monetary payment, that you OWE HER.

We need more defamation law suits.

Even with the win and the 8.4M, he will be tagged as Accused of and will never get back the lost “verge of promotion to brigadier general”.

30 Years later, some Dorm Room regret sex comes back and ruins your career. She was p~~~ed that she didn’t get to divorce rape him, next best thing is a false accusation. Trying to get her hooks in on that money. I’m glad he won the lawsuit, but the damage to his reputation and career is irreparable.

Do females go to jail for lying? If non-consensual sex, rape, sexual assault is a serious crime, so is lying about it.

LOL. I wouldn’t eat that pussy even with barbeque sauce on it.

All my life I've had doubts about who I am, where I belonged. Now I'm like the arrow that springs from the bow. No hesitation, no doubts. The path is clear. And what are you? Alive. Everything else is negotiable. Women have rights; men have responsibilities; MGTOW have freedom. Marriage is for chumps. If someone stands in the way of true justice, you simply walk up behind them and stab them in the heart-R'as al Ghul.

[Ranger OneParticipant 16836]

From the article: Shannon, 52, said she was devastated by the verdict and fearful for her family’s future. “I feel like I’m a financial slave for the rest of my life,” to Riggins, Shannon said. “I told the truth in my article and at trial.”

That’s special. LOL. Isn’t that what a lot of divorced men are: financial slaves for the rest of their lives.

Listen here snowflake, telling the truth doesn’t secure the win. You need to PROVE that you are telling the truth when you are the one making the accusations. That is how the justice system is supposed to work.
Great post and I hope to see more like it!

Feminism isn't about equality with men, it's about leverage over men.

Wow. This women, and all the folks who supported who crusade, are a destructive mess. Whether she was raped or not, she does not have any moral authority to destroy lives as she has done. I have no doubt that she believes she was raped, but did she consider the cost to those she cares about with her actions? Her blog post was intended to destroy. Both this colonel and the government. She was vindictive. She wanted other people to suffer. If you actually want to help women, then go teach women how to protect themselves and avoid dangerous situations.

Now, she has damaged the career and financial life of Riggins. She has put her teenagers and husband (if she’s still married) in a lifetime of debt. And she still doesn’t get it. She believes she’s the victim. She may have been the victim back in 86, but she most certainly is the villain now.

Ok. Then do it.

Watch the video of her interview in the article, around 3:30. She is smirking when she talks about it.

There’s a reason she “emphatically” lost the trial. Nobody believes her.

8.4 million is not enough.

They should confiscate all her belongings and auction them off.

She should face 2-5 yrs mandatory incarceration for perversion of justice.

She doesn’t have $8.4 million to pay the judgment.

And she lives in Washington state where a spouse’s (her husband) income cannot be garnished to pay a judgment against their spouse.

The money will never be collected.

The judgment was symbolic.

And regarding the post above that ‘she may believe she was raped’

FYI: That is a sign she is cognitively defective and/or delusional.

[Pedal, run, rowParticipant]

I would like to think the tide is turning somewhat, and this case is applicable to other men. However I can’t shake the feeling that if he had been an E-4 or E-5 instead of a Brigadier General, that this never would have made it to a civil court. Because he would be serving a 40 year sentence in Leavenworth.

She has organs that could be harvested.
