New York Weather Anchor Arrested For Falsely Claiming Rape


Heidi Jones does the weather for ABC in New York City and sometimes is on Good Morning America. Now though she has been suspended indefinitely from her job and has been arrested by police for filing a false police report. Jones had claimed that she was attacked while jogging in Central Park back in September and had only escaped being raped because some people came to help her. She did not file a police report about the incident until November when she told the police that her attacker had confronted her again.

Police scoured the area for video and witnesses but no one knew anything. So, police went back to Jones to get more information and at that time she admitted she had made the entire thing up. If convicted of filing the false report she could spend up to a year in jail.
