21-year-old faces jail after seducing soldier then accusing him of rape

A woman is facing jail for falsely claiming a soldier raped her after a boozy night out in an RAF bar.

Amanda Lang, 21, seduced Phillip Trowell as he celebrated the end of a training course at RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire.

The former call centre worker took the soldier back to her flat on the base and the pair had consensual sex.

Hours later, Mr Trowell, 21, flew out to Cyprus to rejoin the rest of his regiment. He was arrested there a short time later when Lang went to police.

She claimed she had been pushed to the ground and raped behind a church on the base after the pair left the bar.

Lang had been due to stand trial charged with attempting to pervert the course of justice by making the false rape allegation earlier this month, but changed her plea to guilty.

Judge Julian Hall bailed Lang - who is known to friends as Tink after Peter Pan's Tinkerbell because of her fascination with fairies - with the warning to "prepare to be going to prison" when she is sentenced at Oxford Crown Court today.

Most women are not worth the skin they are in.

I lucked out, but then she was brought up by her father alone.
