Two soldiers have admitted they may have insulted a Royal Military Police officer who was found hanged after her claims that she had been raped were dismissed.
Corporal Anne-Marie Ellement, 30, who died at a barracks in Wiltshire, was devastated that military prosecutors did not take action against two men she said had raped her.
Members of her family believe she was stigmatised as the "girl who cried rape" and bullied by colleagues after making the allegations while posted in Germany.
Giving evidence at her inquest in Salisbury, a female soldier, who cannot be named for legal reasons, said she was angry at Ellement for making the allegations.
The witness, who at the time was the girlfriend of one of the soldiers Ellement accused, said she could not remember calling her names – and saying that she would "make her life hell", but added: "It could have been possible, I can't remember it but I can't deny it."
She also said she could not recall saying to a colleague that she was going to "batter" Ellement.
Kirsten Heaven, a barrister acting for some members of Ellement's family, asked the witness if she had called the dead woman "a slag, a skank, a liar". She replied: "I could have but I can't remember so I can't confirm or deny."
Heaven continued: "That was your view at the time?"
She replied: "Yes."
The witness told the inquest that she did not believe the soldiers, who can only be identified as A and B, had raped Ellement. She said she accepted A's account that he had consensual sex with Ellement.
Ellement wrote in her diary that the witness had made comments outside her room: "There's the girl that cried rape". But the soldier denied the claim and insisted she had not co-ordinated a campaign against Ellement.
She added: "I do not think bullying is acceptable."
Corporal Charlene Pritchard described how she was the first person to find Ellement – partially clothed – after the alleged rape.
She said: "She was in the corridor crying. She was trying to get into the room and I was the first person to awake."
She said that, at first, she believed Ellement's version of events and acted as a "shoulder to cry" on for her but later changed her opinion and supported soldiers A and B.
Pritchard said: "Initially when everything had happened I was a firm believer that Anne-Marie was telling the truth. It's only in the period of spending a huge amount of time with Anne-Marie that I doubted her account, I made up my own mind that she wasn't telling the truth. Everyone had their own opinions."
Pritchard said that she had heard colleagues calling Ellement names behind her back, including "Anne-Marie elephant".
She admitted "possibly" calling her a slag during an argument.
The inquest continues.
