Summary

Anjela Borisova Urumova, 20, received a 23-month prison sentence for falsely accusing Daniel Pierson of attempted rape and kidnapping in Pennsylvania, leading to his wrongful month-long incarceration.

Urumova pled guilty to seven misdemeanors, including filing false reports and fabricating evidence.

Investigators uncovered her lie after finding inconsistencies in surveillance footage. She admitted she targeted Pierson because she had seen him before.

Alongside jail time, she must pay $3,600 in restitution, undergo a mental health evaluation, and serve probation. Prosecutors warned the false claim damaged public trust and harmed real victims.

    Depends. On where the murder was committed and the circumstances. For example, murdering 20 + brown people for no reason other than racist hate isn’t punishable by death. Whereas shooting one wealthy person who is responsible for untold deaths, pain, and misery by denying the victims medical most definitely is a death penalty offense.
