You're correct, I forgot to convert from a decimal fraction to a percent. Mea Culpa. Completely irrelevant and doesn't change things one iota. 0.06% is still much smaller than 8%. Guilt, or truth of allegations are still not determined by statistical probability, and 1 out of every 12 rape accusations being fabricated is still significant, and it is still galactically stupid to insist that a rape allegation must be true because "only" 8% of such accusations are false.
