NEW YORK AP – A woman due to be sentenced Tuesday for fabricating a gang rape accusation that sent an innocent man to prison was too drunk to remember much of the night she met him and believed her allegation was true, according to legal papers filed by her defense team.
Biurny Peguero started “to believe that her lie was the true story as she was intoxicated with alcohol and could not recall all the details of that night,” a psychiatrist wrote in a report accompanying a defense pre-sentencing memorandum obtained by The Associated Press.
