SERIAL rape accuser Jemma Beale was a sadistic bully who gloated about the money she made from her vile fake accusations, her ex-girlfriend has revealed.

Anuska Pritchard told how Beale, 25, duped her into giving evidence on her behalf at the trial of Mahad Cassim, jailed for seven years in 2012 after being found guilty of rape.

But to Anuska’s horror, just weeks later Beale gleefully told her how she had completely made up the rape claims in order to get £11,000 in criminal compensation.

Anuska, 24, who spent four years with Beale, said: “I felt physically sick, totally disgusted. I had nursed Jemma through her ‘ordeal’ supported her, cradled her in my arms while she wept and it had all been a lie.

“I remembered sitting in the court at the rape trial with Jemma and her family, all huddled together waiting for the verdict to come through.

“Jemma had been giving Cassim the ‘evils’ while he sat in the dock. She was delighted when he got found guilty.

“Yet now she was gloating, telling me ‘I made it all up, I did it for the money!”

Anuska was so horrified by what Beale had done she immediately phoned her mum Sam and father John to come and get her from her girlfriend’s home in Bedfont, Middlesex.

After she told her mum what Beale had confessed to, Sam started investigating and found sick boasts on Beale’s Facebook about the rape case.

Sam, 47, said: “Jemma was basically ‘bragging’ that she’d been raped. Someone had asked her ‘What you going to spend the money on?”

“I googled how much compensation she might get and realised it was over £10,000. I texted Jemma on her phone saying ‘If you’d been seriously raped you wouldn’t put it on Facebook for everyone to see!”

“She sent me an abusive message back. But I kept thinking about that poor man sat in prison for something he’d never done so I sent another text saying: “How do you sleep at night knowing that an innocent man is behind bars?”

The text messages escalated into a row between Sam, Beale and her mother.

Sam claims Beale made threats against her saying: “She said she was going to come down and do me in. I was called an ‘evil bitch’ for saying she hadn’t been raped.”

It ended when Sam got a letter from police in 2012 warning her that if she did not stop ‘harassing’ Beale and Beale’s mother she would be arrested.

Sam said: “Looking back I don’t know why the police didn’t even bother to ring me to ask me why I’d sent the texts, they just took Jemma’s word for why I’d done it - just like they took her word about the rapes.”

“If they had properly investigated it might have meant Cassim would have been freed earlier and no other man would have had to suffer the trauma of being accused by Jemma of attacking her.”

In fact Sam’s texts and her evidence during Beale’s trial for perjury were to prove crucial - but when police finally turned up on her door in 2014 to ask her about them she feared she was about to get arrested.

She said: “I thought “Oh God’ but then they told me they believed Jemma had made up the rape accusations and my first words were ‘Thank God!”

“I was so pleased that someone had finally seen through her and that poor man was going to be freed.”
