"She terrorized her own community," Orange County Sheriff's spokesman Jim Amormino said. "It's outrageous and caused a lot of undue fear." 20 year old Danielle Deichman initially told authorities that she was assaulted Tuesday night while walking along La Paz Road. Investigators say she claimed she had been grabbed from behind and knocked to the ground near Kings Road at about 7:30 p.m.

A woman who falsely cried rape for a second time has been spared jail because a judge deemed it 'unfair' for her child to be born in prison. Heavily pregnant Gemma Scoones, 27, stood before Judge Michael Taylor in the dock at Durham Crown Court on Friday to be sentenced for perverting the course of justice. Last year, Scoones was given a 12-month jail sentence by the court after she admitted a similar offence involving a false rape allegation against her estranged husband, following the break up of their relationship.

The Hofstra false rape accusation is a chilling case study in the harsh and byzantine ways our purportedly enlightened society not only tolerates but tacitly encourages rape lies as the price of battling rape, without regard for the terrible harm to the men and boys falsely accused. Modern people cannot stomach the sort of vigilante "justice" that, well into the 20th Century, condemned countless falsely accused men and boys to the lynch mob's rope. But the Hofstra case is a somber warning that the witch-hunt hysteria fomented by those self-anointed rape avengers of yesteryear is alive and well in our news media, in our law enforcement apparatuses, indeed, in society at large.

A 21-year-old aspiring model is facing jail after falsely accusing a man of rape.

At Chelmsford Crown Court this week, Merry pleaded guilty to perverting the course of justice in court last week and now faces sentencing on 15 November.

A little sprain in the forecast didn't stop "cry-rape" weather gal Heidi Jones from limping into Manhattan Supreme Court today to be sentenced for snowing authorities last fall. Jones, 37 -- wearing a tight gold skirt, a frilly matching sleeveless blouse, and a big black boot-cast on her left foot -- will serve 350 hours of community service at a not-for-profit agency.

ORLANDO - A 21-year-old woman admitted she fabricated being raped Monday night and was arrested on charges of making a false report, according to the Orange County Sheriff's Office. This was the fourth false rape report that Emily Riker has made, and the third in 2010, according to a police report.

A McCalla teen is under arrest after authorities say she made up a story that she was raped to avoid getting in trouble for being out past her curfew. Her tale of being attacked at a service station made its way onto the internet and grew to the point where rumors spread that the same type of incident had occurred two other times over the past week, said Jefferson County Chief Deputy Randy Christian. "At the very least it caused serious concerns and some panic in that area and also had the potential to damage the reputation of area businesses," Christian said. Brittany Krider, 18, is charged with giving false information to law enforcement. She was booked into the county jail Tuesday and released on $5,000 bond.
