Esther Baker Faces Trial for Alleged False Abuse Claims
Description
A 43-year-old woman, Esther Baker, faces four counts of perverting the course of justice after allegedly making false sexual abuse claims against prominent ex-politicians—including a former Lib Dem MP and a late Home Secretary—and falsely implicating a former police chief. Her trial is scheduled for March 30, 2027, at Liverpool Crown Court, expected to last six to eight weeks. Released on bail, she’ll return for another hearing early next year. The Crown Prosecution Service emphasized this prosecution is only pursued when evidence proves the claims are maliciously false and in the public interest, with Staffordshire Police assisting in the investigation. Allegations span from late 2014 to early 2020, and the case will hinge on whether Baker’s accusations were fabricated or truthful.
