Wow, without context, that’s a really weird claim that makes me not want to engage with you.
With context, presumably, it wouldn’t be such a weird claim, yes? If so, then why assume there’s no such context?
Anyway, here’s an example. (This wasn’t “rape”, I don’t think, but merely “sexual harassment / assault”, but it’s close enough to establish the principle. I know of other examples that were “rape”, but I can’t easily link them / they’re not related to this community / etc.)
This is without getting into the publicly known and much-discussed examples like this one. (Surely you can’t have missed all the media attention that one received…?)
It strikes me as much more likely that people with very poor epistemic hygiene are repeating secondhand “false allegation” stories with much more confidence than is warranted.

Hardly applies to the above examples!
