A woman who lied about being raped by two men during a college party appeared to roll her eyes in court as one of the victims talked about how the allegations affected his life.

Nikki Yovino, 20, of South Setauket, New York, was sentenced Thursday in Bridgeport Superior Court to three years in prison, with the sentence suspended after she serves one year. Yovino pleaded guilty in June to misdemeanor charges of falsely reporting an incident and interfering with police.

Yovino was attending Sacred Heart University, in Fairfield, Conn., when she reported being raped by two school football players in the bathroom at an off-campus party in Bridgeport in October 2016.

The two men both admitted to having sex with her, but said they encounter was consensual.

Yovino subsequently admitted making up the claims so she wouldn’t lose a potential boyfriend.

Although the players were never arrested, both of them withdrew from the school while facing possible discipline, and one of them lost his football scholarship.

A Florida woman falsely accused a sheriff’s deputy of raping her earlier this year during a shoplifting arrest, police said.

Marley Barberian, 23, from West Palm Beach, was arrested for making a false report of sexual battery, false report of a crime, and perjury after claiming that a Palm Beach County sheriff’s deputy anally raped her on the way to jail from the Greenacres Police Department last January, reported the Palm Beach Post.

Police booked Barberian last Thursday after determining that she lied about the attack.

Barberian — who faces up to five years in prison and a $5,000 fine — was released from Palm Beach County Jail on Saturday on a $3,000 bond.

Following her shoplifting arrest at a Target on Jan. 9, Barberian said a 55-year-old white male deputy, who was not named, stopped his police car while taking her to jail, put a gun in her mouth “because that probably turned him on,” then anally raped her, according to a report filed at the time.

He didn't refuse her access. He told her that a male colleague would need to be present. Nothing at all wrong with that.

In this #MeToo era, one just cannot be too careful. Good for him.

This is patently untrue.

It's untrue that Trump's presidency was derailed by one allegation. It's untrue that Kavanaugh's career was derailed by one allegation. The politicians who've had their careers derailed by allegations are the ones with pictures, videos, and texts demonstrating the truth behind multiple allegations. And sometimes even that doesn't do anything.

Sorrynotsorry, women aren't going to leave public life because men might made uncomfortable.

This is like f-ing sharia law. Disgusting and indefensible.

Not even close.

If she doesn't want to have another male colleague present, she can refuse the interview. Simple.

Nobody is forcing her to do anything she doesn't want to do.

Did you even read that post before you hit "submit"?

Tell me how that's NOT a taliban policy.

You are seriously in need of psychiatric help. Wow.

NP-so your answer when someone asks you to explain how this GOP candidate's policy differs from the Taliban's restrictions on women is to hurl insults?

That you can equate a man saying he doesn’t want to be alone with a particular woman, to the TALIBAN’s medieval restrictions on all women says more about you than any insult ever could.

So ... did you not read the article? Or are you saying Foster is lying? He specifically said that this was not about a particular woman but that he is following the policy of a Christian fundamentalist regarding treatment of all women.

Where did the article state this?
He did say this rule is out of respect for his wife.

Why would his wife care if he met alone, for example, with a 90 year old grandma?

Because he’s a man, dammit, and he takes what he wants! When he wants! From who he wants!

Honestly, the guy has basically admitted he can’t be trusted. He should be locked up. You know, to respect his wife.

For every false accusation by a woman there are 100 rapists who go unprosecuted for lack of evidence.
