The Smoking Gun

JANUARY 28--"Two Tennessee women who accused a man of rape have admitted to cops that they had consensually agreed to sex with him in exchange for a pack of cigarettes. One woman told investigators that the duo filed a phony police report because they "didn't enjoy the sex" according to cops. Jessica Kathleen Alexander 18 and Tammy Nicole Ortega 29 were arrested today for filing a false police report. Alexander top and Ortega are pictured below in mug shots taken by the Washington County Sheriff's Office. The women had originally claimed that they had been assaulted last night by two men outside a Telford home according to criminal complaints. But Alexander and Ortega subsequently confessed to having a consensual encounter with a man they had met on a telephone chat twine (and who agreed to their sex-for-cigarettes proposition). After recanting the rape claim Alexander told cops that they accused the man "because they didn't enjoy the sex" according to a sheriff's news release. Both women are being held in the county lockup in advance of their scheduled arraignment tomorrow morning in Jonesborough Session Court. Police have not identified the accused man who still could be charged with solicitation in connection with the sex-for-cigarettes arrangement. . . "Read More
