Meet The Men’s Rights Activist Who Left An Ohio University Student Too Scared To Leave Her House

Ohio University student and sorority sister Rachel Cassidy had to delete all of her social media accounts after she was labeled a “false rape accuser” and flooded by threatening messages.

Peter Nolan refers to himself as the public face of Crimes Against Fathers, a site he runs with an anonymous partner who goes by the online handle John Rambo.

For the last two years or so, he's been using Crimes Against Fathers to "name and shame" women who he believes commit perjury against men, usually in cases involving rape allegations, pedophilia, and divorce.

"It's a site that men could come to had they been a victim of a crime," he says, speaking with BuzzFeed via Skype from his current home in Germany. "The family courts are used to destroy men like this."

He got involved with the site after fighting and winning two perjury cases against his ex-wife during their divorce. The process, he says, made him feel suicidal.

Nolan first learned of the alleged sexual assault on a sidewalk during Ohio University's homecoming when he saw a video of it on 4Chan. Users on 4Chan were outraged over the footage that was uploaded to viral video site World Star Hip Hop Uncut. It showed over a minute of an extended recording of the alleged rape. Users were furious that it didn't look like the sexual assault Ohio law enforcement was reporting it as.

"This kid Vance, I think he's 18 or 19, was pillared in the Daily Mirror for not helping the quote rape victim," Nolan says of Vance Blanc, the student who reportedly filmed the now-infamous video of the public sex act. "But when the video came out, whoever the woman is, is clearly not being raped."
