SANTA CRUZ, Calif. - Charges have been filed against a woman who allegedly lied about a sexual assault that happened at the University of California Santa Cruz campus. According to the Santa Cruz County District Attorney's Office, criminal charges have been filed against Morgan Triplett, 20, for giving false information to police.
These charges stem from an alleged assault reported on the UC Santa Cruz campus on February 17.
The charges are based on false information given by Triplett when she called 911 claiming that she had been severely beaten and then sexually assaulted by a stranger she encountered while she was walking on a path on the UCSC campus looking for banana slugs, according to the DA's office.
After an extensive investigation it became apparent that the majority of the information that Triplett gave the officers was not in fact true, the DA's office said.
Triplett is currently a student at UC Santa Barbara and does not attend classes at the Santa Cruz campus, said the DA's office.
