'A Dec. 14 trial date has been set for a Thurmont woman who recanted rape allegations after the man she accused had spent two months in jail.

Samantha Carter-drabczyk, 29, faces three counts of making a false statement to police, a crime punishable by as much as six months in jail and a $500 fine for each conviction.

On Friday in Frederick County Circuit Court, Assistant Public Defender Matthew J. Frawley asked Judge Theresa M. Adams to have a prosecutor from another county assigned to the case.
...
She recanted her allegations in a meeting with four people: Angel, Littleton, Moffatt and Cpl. Jason West, a sheriff's office detective who later obtained the criminal charges based on Carter-drabczyk's March 16 statements, according to court testimony.'
