In February, 2010, District Court located in Worcester County Maryland held the case for trial. During the trial, it was learned by the alleged victim (Michelle Lyons,) that she in fact lied under oath, when she applied for the original criminal charges and admitted this during criminal prosecution/trial.
In March 2010, the case was referred to the Worcester County Bureau of Investigations, by the State’s Attorney’s Office. An investigator was assigned to this investigation and the original complainant/victim Michelle Lyons was arrested and charged with giving a false statement and perjury.
Michelle Lyons released after being served on a criminal summons.

Soooooooooo, she lies and gets him arrested, and they only issue a criminal summons (no arrest) for her? I say tit for tat, issue a warrant! This system is screwed up!
She didnt lie, he convinced her that she did. Whats love got to do with it?
Anybody can go to the commissioner and get someone arrested on a lie. She only got busted because she admitted to it. Trust me from first hand experience. I spent 2K for an attorney to prove my innocence.
Perjury, now there's a subject you know about. Tell us about your experiences.
I wouldn't think that statements alone could be the basis for an arrest. What about visable injuries from the assault. Were there any?
Were there any pictures of any injuries to her? Pictures don't lie.
