- Law enforcement can contact an offender's job if they believe it's necessary for an investigation.

But if they can’t find anything will they go by the victims false accusations against the offender
In general:
- If no evidence supports the victim's accusation, it'll be challenging to prosecute.
- However, the final decision lies with the prosecutor based on all information available.
