Teen charged with making false rape report

Story here. Excerpt:

'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.'

....before the author stops describing her as a child? She's called a teen for the first half of the story and not until her name is finally revealed do we learn she is actually legally an adult woman.

I've never seen an 18 year old male described as anything other then a MAN, rarely even using the descriptor, young before it.
