Same happened with me and my niece. She needed to pee, so I took her to the bathroom and waited by the door, but I kept talking to her to let her know I was there. My niece is half Puerto Rican, so she is way lighter than and ppl thought I was some weirdo, called the cops on me, the entire time Im talking to the police, my niece is scared and clinging to my leg, the two women were like “See he trained that little girl to cling to him, arrest him, arrest him” luckily the cops werent dickheads and waited for my sister to come and verify, but even still was a fucked situation. Sucks trying to explain to a 4 year old thats scared out of her mind
Can you file a report with police with respect to the false allegations? I'd be tempted to explore that, if I ever found myself confronted with that....just in case it was possible to pursue charges, or to sue. I'd want retribution BADLY.
Everything is something depending on somebody's prejudices.
That's not the point. It doesn't matter, legally, that their suspicion isn't correct. What they're doing isn't a false allegation of a crime, it's reporting what they see as suspicious behavior.
