A man who was falsely accused of rape by a woman who lied about being a victim of grooming has spoken about the devastation her lies wrought on his life.
In Jordan Trengove’s first TV interview since Eleanor Williams was jailed, he told Good Morning Britain hosts Ed Balls and Susanna Reid her lies drove him to attempt to take his life.
Williams, 22, posted pictures of her injuries and an account of being groomed, trafficked and beaten on social media in 2020, but Preston Crown Court heard she inflicted the wounds herself using a hammer. She was found guilty of perverting the course of justice and jailed for eight and a half years.
