How to read this record
Own Scotsman report says an offender posed as successful businessmen to target single women on dating sites; the headline labels him a rapist and says jailed for12years. Keep impersonation, platforms, explicit targeting characteristic and the source-associated sexual-offending label plus sentence. The sparse copy provides no amount, rape victim details, actual term served, independent diagnosis or clinical cause from trail-of-devastation rhetoric.

Coarse article-level tag from contextual coding. Consult the coding record for stage, actor, allegation and mixed-fraud scope. Source claims are neither independently verified nor additive.
These labels describe the available reporting. “Not reported” does not mean a harm did not happen. A theme's stage applies to that statement, not every claim in the article.
Only direct reviewed connections are shown. Shared wording is weaker evidence than a supported case connection. A connection through a third article does not establish that two reports concern the same case.
Named Harkins12-year/trail-of-devastation and unnamed12-year businessmen-persona/dating-site source permit possible reported-family/work relation; no amount/name transferred or new injury inferred.
A page can change after it first appears. Observation dates record when its URL was seen; they do not prove that the wording assessed here was present on every date.
