A follow up to our story HERE.
Since two mental health "experts" say that she really does believe she'd been raped, she isn't going to go to jail. My question for them is, if she really believes she has been raped, why exactly did she admit that she lied about being raped? That doesn't really seem to work.
She now is on 3 years probation, continued mental health counseling and has to pay back the costs of the rape kit as well as an additional $500 fine. She must also spend 180 days on house arrest and wear an ankle monitor and perform 100 hours of community service.
And if she was willing to falsely accuse someone once, how is it that she is unlikely to re-offend? Because she had (not "has") "sever anxiety issues"? This is trotting out all of the excuses that are possible to keep her from being held for a custodial sentence for falsely accusing someone of rape.
Judge Beth Meyers has assisted in painting a target on every man in Michigan that may run into Ms. St. Charles, and should be ashamed of herself.

Three months in jail and two years probation for Charissa Bella Shuman
Charissa Bella Shuman made a false sexual assault allegation that landed a man in custody for 23 hours, of which 6 hours was spent at a hospital for an anxiety attack and chest pains.
There is no mention of the second man, and whether he was taken in to custody or not.
I'm glad to see that the Judge, Jim Hunter, acknowledged the harm a false accusation can make:
“The real harm here is that an innocent person may have been prosecuted,"
The good news is that it doesn't appear that the unnamed man was ever charged with anything, so at least there won't be any social stigma that attaches to him.
Add that Ms. Schuman also has received 75 hours of community service, and I think we can say that she has received a just punishment.
While I'm happy to see she has written letters of apology, I can't agree that she didn't have any "malicious" intent. You don't accuse someone of raping you out of the kindness of your heart.

Strathpeffer woman, Emily MacNicol, fined for false rape claim
So she was a student at Strathclyde University, studying bio-chemical science. She is obviously a very intelligent person.
The thing that stands out to me, is why the judge in this case didn't do the following:
1. It appears she has already been in treatment for some issues. If there are that many, and they are that serious, why is she not in a facility?
2. Why didn't the judge have her committed to a facility for further treatment?
Instead she gets a £300 fine and she is living at home with her parents. Was any thought given, that the next time she claims rape, she may point the finger at an innocent man, and his life could be severely damaged due to the claim?
I guess not.
