UK: Serial false rape accuser jailed after crying rape against her brothers.
But even when police realised that her claims were just a pack of lies and charged her with perverting the course of justice – she pleaded not guilty.
She claimed she had thrown away her underwear which would have supported her claims – sparking off another fruitless search by police.
The trial date was set – in which both brothers would have faced being accused of rape in the witness box – but she changed her mind and admitted she had been lying.
Richard Ashley, defending, said doctors had diagnosed Read as suffering from a paranoid personality disorder which resulted in her craving attention.
Ah yes, the “I’m a woman” defense.
