She apparently missed some appointment or schedule & had to make up a story to cover her tracks with family or friends. The she truly was RAPED by the media and certain political forces using her as a weapon. At most the original crime was date rape, which wile not commendable, is much different from forcible rape.

100,000 is only about $2,000 US
