So her sentence is deferred. As long as she keeps her nose clean for a while, she is free to falsely accuse someone else down the road. I hope that she at least has to pay back the costs of the investigation.
Elgin court told of huge investigation
Published: 24/11/2009
A PREGNANT teenager’s mother said today she was mystified over why her daughter falsely claimed she had been raped at knifepoint.
Moray College student Lucinda Hicks, of 23 Kingsmills, Elgin, told officers she had been raped by an unidentified man on a pathway near Grampian Road, Elgin, on April 9.
Elgin Sheriff Court heard the false allegations resulted in Grampian Police devoting almost 800 police officer hours to the inquiry and questioning more than 300 people.
Hicks, 17, had her sentence deferred after she admitted making false representations and causing the police to devote time and services, at the public expense, to an investigation which she knew to be false.

Thanks anon,
There are several scary things in that link:
1. PREGNANT teenager who lied to police about being raped at knifepoint has been spared custody
2. She said Hicks had suffered a miscarriage in December last year and there had been a family bereavement.
So what we see here, is a girl who was pregnant at 16, again at 17, and falsely cried rape. And the mother thinks that 200 hours community service is "Fair".
Does anyone other than me think that there is some severe parental neglect going on here?
Any parent who thinks that that punishment is in the slightest bit fair is obviously guilty of neglect.
I just realized that there does seem to be a trend in a lot of these false accusers, who are under 18.
Does anyone ever notice a mention of a father, in any of the articles? All I ever see is the mother mentioned. Makes you wonder, doesn't it?

I have noticed this too. Is the dad shoved out of the spotlight or, is the father divorced from the mother and not kept in the loop?
Anon,
Or, was it another single mother by choice option. I have to think that a lot of the FRA's that we see on this site, come from women who grew up without a father figure, or their father wasn't allowed to be involved in their lives.
Any way you look at it, almost NEVER do we hear about the father of the false accuser. Strange.
