Comfort
Yinusa, 23, an underground worker in the UK, is facing jail for
accusing an accountant she met at a nightclub of rape after he left her
waiting for a lift home outside McDonald's for 45 minutes.
She
became angry after the victim was late returning to give her a lift
back to her hotel following a night out. When he finally arrived to pick
her up, she stormed off and called her boyfriend, Kenneth Umezie, who
was also in court yesterday, to pick her up instead.
On
the drive home, she then told Kenneth, who she has since split from,
that she had been raped by the accountant and sexually assaulted by his
friend. She later called 999 to report the alleged incidents and the two
men were arrested and held in a cell for at least 14 hours before being
released on bail.
It
took 5 further weeks of investigations - including 4 forensic evidence,
mobile phone data and CCTV footage to be studied - for Yinusa's
allegations to be proved false. However, she refused to admit her lies
until just before the trial last month.
She
would be sentenced on Friday for making the false rape claim after she
admitted perverting the course of justice between October 25, 2013 and
January 3 last year. She was once an abuser of cocaine, suffers from
rheumatoid arthritis and has a caution for shoplifting.
