Long Island Student Made Up Sex Attack Story
|
NEW YORK (AP) -- A Long Island high school student, who had reported being sexually abused while walking to William Floyd High School in Mastic Beach, has recanted her story.
Suffolk County police said the girl had told police in January that while cutting through property on the west side of Mastic Road, she was grabbed by a man who fondled her.
The 17-year-old was re-interviewed about inconsistencies and admitted she had made up the story to avoid taking an exam at school. A Suffolk Police spokesman said the girl was not charged. |
