'A woman who falsely claimed she was raped in Bushy park in Dublin has been given a suspended three year sentence.

Liz Jameson rang 999 in the early hours of the morning in March 2009 saying she had been raped by two men who had grabbed her while out walking.

A month later she retracted her claims, saying an 11 year addiction to prescribed medication had resulted in a merging of reality and fantasy. She also told Gardai she lied about having terminal cancer.

During sentencing today the judge was told she's "more mad than bad".'
