Two women were jailed after having a threesome with a man, then accusing him of sexual assault.
Police arrested Colin Palin after his girlfriend and a pal made up claims in March 2014. He has been off work with stress ever since.
Shattered Colin reported: “They destroyed my life. I was terrified. How can I trust anyone again?”
The 56-year-old decorator was held in a cell for five hours and was not cleared for four days.
The allegations were made by Zinzile Ademuni-Odeke, 29, and backed up by Colin’s girlfriend, Emma Riche-Webber, 30.
When Colin left he realised he had left his dog behind. He phoned the women from outside the flat but they refused to return the animal and told police Colin would not leave. He said: “Two officers turned up and I got my dog back. But next day five officers came to arrest me on suspicion of sexual assault. I broke down in tears as I realised I could go to jail. It was my word against theirs.”
Ademuni-Odeke allegedly told officers he exposed himself and said: “This is what you want.”
Riche-Webber eventually owned up to lying. And CCTV proved Colin did not re-enter her flat. Last month she was jailed for eight months after admitting perverting the course of justice. Ademuni-Odeke denied the offence at Bournemouth Crown Courtbut was convicted and got 18 months.
