Police: Woman assaults officers
A Shavertown woman was arrested Saturday after allegedly assaulting Larksville police officers following a reported fight with her boyfriend.
Danielle Castrignano, 19, of Shavertown, faces a host of charges after the incident on Broadway Street around 12:48 a.m. Saturday.
According to the criminal complaint:
Borough officers responded to the area of 47 E. Broadway St. and were directed to Castrignano, who was sitting in a vehicle with a 20-year-old male with opened alcoholic beverages. Castrignano identified herself as Christina Marguerite Galdieri - however, her picture did not match the identification card she presented to officers. She was handcuffed and placed in the back of a patrol car.
While officers were interviewing witnesses, Castrignano escaped the patrol car and fled on foot, forcing to officers to pursue her. She was found hiding under a Jeep Cherokee at 62 E. Broadway St. Patrolman Joshua Evans injured his knee and leg after scaling a fence on a wall during the pursuit.
Once retrieved from under the vehicle, Castrignano struggled with officers and shouted profanities, accusing them of raping her. She refused to re-enter the patrol car and began shoving the officers, kicking one of them in the groin. Officers used a Taser to subdue Castrignano and transported her to the Larksville Police Department, where she threatened officers with rape allegations and offered cash to drop her charges.
Castrignano faces charges of aggravated assault, attempted simple assault, escape, resisting arrest, carrying false identification, disorderly conduct, providing false identification to law enforcement officers, loitering and prowling, and alcohol- and theft-related charges.

If girls dare to make false rape accusations against police officers, think how easy it is to make one against an ex-boyfriend.
If girls make false rape accusations against officers of the law, they are charged nearly 100% of the time.
If girls make false rape accusations against average citizens, i guesstimate; (because the real numbers are obscured and manufactured) that girls that make false rape accusations against average citizens get charged around 2% of the time.
Where in the US constitution does it say law enforcement get more protection from false rape accusations than the average citizen??
What about attempting to bribe a law officer/officers?
Don't you love it when a privileged princess gets all mouthy with the wrong people (not necessarily the police) and it gets them into even deeper trouble? (Most likely because the privileged princesses of today's society are such special snowflakes, they were NEVER taught when to close their mouths and use their ears instead.)
Which of the listed charges covers threatening officers with a false rape allegation?
I did a search for Danielle Castrignano and the only result I had was to a young model who looks around the same age (to me). I don't know if it the same woman. If so she is a 2nd rate model with a potty mouth.
It really says something about feminists when the FRS simply reports on a FRA such as this one, this site gets called misogynistic. Only in the mind of the so-called feminist "gender experts" who are legends in their own mind.

"If girls make false rape accusations against officers of the law, they are charged nearly 100% of the time."
If you read the charges she faces, you find that she is NOT charged with making a false allegation.
This is not particularly difficult to understand - the charge for making a false allegation is a misdemeanor, and thus, hardly worth the effort to pursue, even for the very police officers who find themselves being falsely accused.
There have been a number of cases documented on this site in which FRA's were made against police, yet no charges were pursued.
This points to a issue with FRA's which is much more involved than simple-minded assertions that there is difference between the rates at which women will be charged for accusing police vs. accusing other male citizens. That deeper and more serious issue is the nearly complete lack of real substantive charges which can be brought against false accusers, which will result in meaningful penalties be applied.
Misdemeanor charges will, after all the time and expense of prosecuting them, in most cases result in little more than a (virtual) slap on the wrist. First time offenders are unlikely to be incarcerated, due to state-imposed sentencing guidelines. And, as the only formally recognized victims are going to the police themselves (even when they are not the ones being accused), unless those police agency’s seek to recover the costs of investigations, any fines which will be imposed are likely to be rather inconsequential.
Unless and until meaningful laws, with some real penalties are enacted, there are going to be many, many cases in which false accusers will not be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law (including false accusations against police), simply because the full extent of extant laws provides little punishment at substantial expense.
Some will go on and on about their beliefs that the police and law enforcement lie at the heart of the larger FRA issue (drunken and/or mentally infirm imaginations of profit motives, etc.), while completely ignoring the role that the lack of useful and meaningful laws have played in the sad reality that many false accusers suffer little to no harm themselves, while utterly destroying the lives and livelihoods of the victims.
If we ever wish to see accusers properly punished, and the real victims properly compensated in this country (USA), then I suggest that we bring the discussion of the necessary legal changes into the public domain (the oft repeated topics and themes on this site appear to already made their mark on the public’s conscious). Legal changes should be no different.
Yet, to my frustration, the closest thing to an actual discussion of the way the current laws work, and what changes are needed comes down to me pulling out my damned soapbox and ranting about it to deaf ears (err, eyes).
I guess it’s just easier for the lazy-minded to believed it really nothing more than just those damned cops causing the problems?
