Area Woman Officially Charged With Lying About Sexual Assault

A woman from Sandwich has been arrested for allegedly lying to police about being sexually assaulted.

Annette Brown is charged with three felony counts of disorderly conduct.  Investigators say Brown lied about being approached by a man impersonating a police officer Tuesday night.  She claimed the man put on a mask, pointed a gun at her head and then sexually assaulted her in a cornfield.  Officers say they came to their conclusion after interviewing Brown, talking to witnesses and gathering physical evidence.

Brown is in a hospital right now.  She will be taken to the Kendall County Jail when released.  Her bond is 10 thousand dollars.
