Serial liar' claimed she was taken to Amsterdam and Ibiza as part of sex trafficking ring, court hears
An alleged 'serial liar' fabricated false evidence that she was raped, attacked and trafficked for sex across the North of England and abroad, a court heard.
Opening the trial on Tuesday , Jonathan Sandiford KC, said: "On a number of occasions, Williams presented herself at railway stations or to hospitals or police in a vulnerable and injured state, alleging that she had been sexually assaulted or subjected to violence. But Jonathan Sandiford KC said Williams caused the injuries to herself using a hammer which was later found near her home. He said: "Police investigated Williams' claims she had been trafficked for sexual exploitation, looking for evidence to support them. Instead what the police found was evidence that her allegations were untrue and she had fabricated evidence."
In 2017 a man called Cameron Bibby was arrested after Williams claimed he had raped her at a house party in Barrow when she was 16. Williams allegedly faked Snapchat messages in which Mr Bibby appeared to confess to having sex with her - however he was later found to be innocent.
