Now the victim is having her credibility questioned by the internet and the only involvement she has is when her identity is published and she has to move for the 5th time.

Without wanting to sound churlish, consider it vice versa? What if evidence not available at the time casts serious doubt on the woman's intentions? A man's life and career could have been permanently damaged.
