Brian Banks was falsely accused of rape by Wanetta Gibson. Banks served 5 years and 2 months in prison after he a pleaded no contest in 2003 to forcible rape and later was registered as a sex offender. Gibson sued the Long Beach Unified School District after the conviction and received a $1.5 million settlement accusing the district of providing an unsafe environment. $1,500,000 USD. that's more than I make in 5 years. In an initial meeting with Brian, WAnetta Gibson said she had lied; there had been no kidnap and no rape and she offered to help him clear his record. she told Banks, "'I will go through with helping you but it's like at the same time all that money they gave us, I mean gave me, I don't want to have to pay it back. Clearly, this woman has ROBBED/SCAMMED the state of California for $1.5 million. People shouldn't just get to make false rape claims and get large sums of money and get away with it! NO! NOBODY is above the law! Sign this petition to have Watson responsible for her crimes. Stand together and we can deliver justice to where it is needed.
