A lot of people have one point in their life been accused falsely intentionally or unintentionally. People are often misunderstood and then when the issue is narrated to a third party, the real point of the subject is lost. A police officer ones said that we have more innocent people in jail than the real criminals, and this is because of false accusation. We need to know how to handle cases of false accusation especially when to comes to character defamation, There are some few things you need to put in mind.
1. Do not be scared: People are failing because of fear, fear of the unknown. If you know you were accused wrongly then do not fret, everybody has at one point or the other been in this situation and trust me they didn’t die, you will not die also trust me.

2. Explain to rational people only: Don’t go around trying to explain to everybody how that you are being victimized, some people will probably not understand no matter how you try. People understand to the degree and frequency at which their reasoning power allows them. The bad part of this is, if you keep explaining to irrational people and they always tend to either not believe you or see the possibility of your story being false, they you can be forces to having negative vibes and finally depression.
3. People are frail: You need to know that people are frail and as such you should not be very disappointed when the people you expect to stand by your side in such period start acting like Nepa light and disappear. Don’t blame them so much, kill that entitlement mentality, nobody owes you anything.
4. Pray about Your Mind: When all this is over, you don’t want to have a damaged mind both yourself and your relationship with others. Many people actually do not recover from such incidents, they live their entire life through the lens of this event. Learn to heal from it and move on, if you are a believer like i am, you should talk to your father about it, so your mind and heart can heal from the hurt and the paranoia that it poses.
5. Live, Smile and Start Again: After such events, people tend to run to their shell probably because they are ashamed or they feel people are judging them, they tend to see this in everything other people do, they see themselves being judged in statements, conversations, action, etc and this makes them too conscious limiting the way they perceive life. Live your best life, smile and start all over again.
These hints has nothing to do with whether the truth comes out or not, these hints are important regardless. LIVE, SMILE AND START AGAIN.
