Summary
Anjela Borisova Urumova, 20, received a 23-month prison sentence for falsely accusing Daniel Pierson of attempted rape and kidnapping in Pennsylvania, leading to his wrongful month-long incarceration.
Urumova pled guilty to seven misdemeanors, including filing false reports and fabricating evidence.
Investigators uncovered her lie after finding inconsistencies in surveillance footage. She admitted she targeted Pierson because she had seen him before.
Alongside jail time, she must pay $3,600 in restitution, undergo a mental health evaluation, and serve probation. Prosecutors warned the false claim damaged public trust and harmed real victims.
No mention of motivation. I don’t understand why anyone would choose a random person to just utterly destroy like that. Like even though he’s been found innocent can you imagine the horror of being told you were accused of that?
Anyone read more elsewhere?
Women can be surprisingly vindictive. I’ve been fired from a job before because a woman there did not like me and just made up a sexual assault allegation against me. I never even touched her and I definitely did not have any intentions towards her but that did not matter because the company had a zero tolerance policy. They did not even care to hear my side of the story, they just fired me on the spot without recourse.
To this day I have no idea what I did that might have pissed her off so much she’d want to destroy my livelihood. She was married AND pregnant and as much of a dirtbag as I might be, I would never even dream of hitting on someone like that.
