Woman, 31, falsely claimed two men broke into her house and raped her after selecting their profiles from Facebook

A woman who falsely accused two strangers of raping her in a bid to win back her boyfriend has escaped jail. In an attempt to garner sympathy from her partner, Linsey Attridge, 31, claimed the two men broke into her house in Aberdeen and attacked her. She even punched herself in the face and ripped her own clothing to make her story seem more credible. Attridge then spent three days trawling social networking sites so she could hand over profiles of the men she claimed were responsible to police. The two men were detained, questioned and had to undergo forensic and medical examinations because of her claims. It was two months before police dropped the case against them because there was no evidence to support the allegations. Attridge appeared in Aberdeen Sheriff Court on Wednesday, where she admitted wasting police time.
