An Indiana State University student told police today she filed a false report with police alleging she was sexually assaulted in her residence hall.
Erin Conley, a 19-year-old freshman, admitted to investigators in a written statement that the report she filed with university police on Sept. 8 was false, ISU Police Chief Bill Mercier said.
Conley told investigators she had consensual sex with the man she previously claimed had raped her, Mercier said.
University police cited Conley for false informing, a class-B misdemeanor. She is scheduled to appear in Terre Haute City Court on Sept. 16.
