New Zealand: Alcohol and drugs blamed for false rape report

Story here. Excerpt:

'An out-of-control young New Plymouth woman sentenced to jail whooped and leapt noisily down the stairs to the court cells, leaving her mother sobbing in court.

In the New Plymouth District Court on Thursday, Danielle Coombe, 18, of New Plymouth, admitted a series of offences including a false rape claim, resisting police and failing to appear for a court hearing earlier in the month.
...
Coombe had made an allegation of sexual abuse to police but had no memory of the night.
...
Coombe was sentenced to three months in jail, ordered to pay $60 reparation for theft and her fines of $675 were remitted.'
