I'm not so sure. Even if there did have to be clear evidence, I think the thought of charges being able to be "flipped" would put many genuine assault victims off when it comes to reporting the crime. Which in turn would increase the confidence of potential offenders in believing that they can get away with it. I just think it sets a dangerous precedent.
