A woman who falsely told police her fiance imprisoned her and threatened to stab her to death was jailed for 10 months yesterday.
Innocent Russell Crowe, 21, spent a month in prison after Sarah Lopez, 32, told police that he tied her to a chair, gagged her and put a pillowcase over her head.
Lopez said Mr Crowe put knives before her and said: "This is about to get ugly."
She dialled 999 in May, claiming the victim – whom she met last year – had broken into her house in the middle of the night and went to strike her with a glass.
Mum-of-one Lopez then told police of the alleged previous threats to kill, Cardiff crown court heard.
Mr Crowe was charged but Lopez, who pleaded guilty to attempting to pervert the cause of justice, was found out when she told Mr Crowe's mother she made it all up.
Judge Neil Bidder told Lopez, of Barry, near Cardiff: "This was a wicked offence."
