A woman who claimed to be the victim of an Asian grooming gang has been jailed for more than eight years for making false rape allegations.
Eleanor Williams, 22, was sentenced to eight and a half years in jail at Preston Crown Court on Tuesday, March 14, after a jury previously found her guilty of eight counts of doing acts tending and intended to pervert the course of justice.
The court heard statements from three of the men Williams had accused, in which they described attempting to take their own lives and receiving death threats from 'all over the world' because of what she accused them of.
