A University of South Dakota freshman could face jail time after filing a false report of sexual assault in North Complex Sept. 12.
Emily Yosten was indicted on a charge of false reporting, a Class 1 misdemeanor, punishable up to one year in jail and a $2,000 fine, by a Clay County grand jury Nov. 4.
After Yosten, 18, made the report in September, a campus alert was sent out to students informing them of a possible sexual assault and urging them to be cautious of situations that could end in sexual assault.
Yosten could not be reached for comment.
Teddi Gertsma, Clay County state's attorney, and Art Mabry, Vermillion chief of police, both declined to comment.
Yosten's initial court appearance is scheduled for 9:30 a.m., Dec. 14 at the Clay County Courthouse.

Another college woman, another rape lie. We see far more stories about college women making rape lies than about college women being raped. The feminists would have us believe it is believe rape victims aren't reporting. So, why are the rape liars reporting? Why are THEY not afraid to come forward? The only conclusion is that false rape is far more common than rape on college campuses.
Where are the "Duke 88"??
Take another look at the headline "September assault report allegedly false"
The way in which it is worded would indicate not that the claim itself is now known to be false, but, rather that police are alleging that it's false.
Wonder if if they ever reported that a sexual assault had been alleged, or had some hapless innocent man been identified as a suspect, would he have been reported to have been an alleged rapist.
Yes, I know I'm "nit-picking" here, but, seriously, the woman has been charged and is going to court. this would only happen if the police found sufficient evidence that her claim was false, or if she had confessed. Yet, the report is that she is alleged to have lied.
Oh well, it is a "student" news paper, after all, which one would expect to be over-the-top politically correct. As much, it is perhaps astonishing that they would even report on the story of an FRA at all.
Different paper, same lack of journalism:

Blogger keeps eating my comments.
Here is an example of a reporter going out of her way to name the accused:
"18-year-old charged with rape, assault
By Brandie Kessler bkessler@pottsmerc.com
POTTSTOWN — A Pottstown man who allegedly raped a victim in the 500 block of King Street when he was a juvenile is being charged with rape in juvenile court.
Although police and prosecutors declined to name the suspect because he was arrested as a juvenile, the suspect's name as confirmed in court records is..."
http://www.pottsmerc.com/articles/2011/01/01/news/srv0000010471175.txt
Notice that she isn't as adamant about naming the alleged victim.
Hmph. Why only a class 1 misdemeanor? Why not a felony, on par with the crime she accused the fellow of committing?
Part of the problem we face is that penalties for false accusations are too light. I propose a return to a more Mosaic set of consequences.
Gender / Raunch feminists will not be happy until college is all women and gay males.
It is the perversion of American law enforcement over the last 30 years, that has (in effect) "manufactured faulty and inflammatory statistics" that have served to "Empower" the new Gender / Raunch community.
America may not be able to "Break this perverted jugger knot any time soon, so just let this be a heads up to other nations to not let the "perverted misinformation Alliance start in the first place.
Every single arrest of an innocent man or boy in this country serves to "Empower" the Gender / raunch community.
If a constitutional action was placed against American law enforcement that says; they cannot in any way shape or form; manufacture faulty and inflammatory statistics that build a prejudice against the innocent...the biggest event would then be, the slow Dis-Empowerment of the American gender / Raunch community as a whole.
Folks want to try to unfold the "Perverted Knot" that has interwoven American law enforcement and gender feminists; when in fact the only cure that is left is to "cut the knot."

When is this shit going to end?
(Meanwhile, I've posted this twice already, yet it keeps getting deleted.)
First we have this article:

But as it turns out:

This is what a rotten college false rape accuser looks like.
Middle row, far right.
