Light sentence for a false report.
Via Daily Wire:
A 21-year-old woman has been sentenced to jail time for lying about being raped on a college campus in Michigan.
Mary Zolkowski will serve 45 days behind bars and two years probation after pleading guilty to falsely reporting a rape in March.
The woman told her mother she had been raped in a parking lot at Delta College in February. Her mother subsequently called the campus to report the false incident and Zolkowski followed up by filing a formal report.
According to a previous report from MLive, the charge was potentially “punishable by up to four years of imprisonment and a $2,000 fine.”
Police officers on campus were unable to verify the woman’s claims, and, during the investigation, notes Newsweek, Zolkowski “refused to provide a medical examination and was unable to provide a detailed description of the made-up suspect, as she had ‘kind of blacked out’ during it.”
The college student eventually confessed that she fabricated the incident.
