Story here. Excerpt:

'A woman charged with making a false report of rape is facing an important court hearing in Port Huron.

Sara Ylen accused two men of sexual assault at her Lexington home last September, but authorities say an attack didn't happen.

A judge will decide today if there's enough evidence to send the case to trial in St. Clair County.

In a separate case, Ylen is charged with fraud in Sanilac County. She's accused of deceiving an insurance company and the public into believing she had cancer.

The public got to know Ylen in 2003 when she talked to the Port Huron newspaper about being a rape victim. But a man who spent nearly a decade in prison was released last year after doubt was raised about Ylen's credibility.'

Another police cock up and one that needs investigating
very thoroughly.The system knew full well that this alleged rape was a no-goer when they discovered that she had made a string of charges across California and particularly against her father and brother when she was a kid.Still the police sat on their hands and let an innocent man suffer.At this point the victim had served 2 years.It took a further 8 years to get him out yet these
felonious police were not bothered at all.
I am sorry for the state the USA is in,once looked up to for it's constitution and fairness it appears worse than soviet russia at it's peak but for different reasons.
