In January, Yovino rejected a plea deal after she was offered a one-year prison sentence. Police said Yovino admitted three months after the alleged assault that she made the allegations up in an attempt to get sympathy from another man she considered to be a prospective boyfriend.
“She stated that she believed when (the other male student) heard the allegation it would make him angry and sympathetic to her,” according to an arrest warrant affidavit.
