    Per the article:

    As part of his social-media postings, Galanakis made several statements, alleging he “basically got kidnapped then raped by the NPD all night,” and falsely indicating Winters had been “convicted” of domestic abuse for beating up a girlfriend.

    I’m not on the side of the police but it’s hard to deny there is a basis for a legal case here.
