Victim Continues Altering Story
Charleston

Metro News: The Voice of West Virginia
 

Megan Williams' story continues to be a moving target more than two years after it happened.

Six people went to prison after the September 2007 incident in Logan County.  All pleaded guilty after Williams' story surfaced.   At the time she claimed to have been sexually assaulted, kidnapped, tortured and stabbed.    Among her claims at the time was that hot water had been poured on her legs and she had been forced to eat rat feces in the home where the incidents occurred.   

Last month, without prompting, Williams came forward and called a press conference to announce she made up the whole story and none of it was true.   She refused to appear at her press conference and instead had her attorney refute all of her previous claims.     Prosecutors in the case, stood on the evidence collected and believe all six who went to prison were convicted of the proper crimes. 

Now, Williams is changing the story again.  She tells the Charleston Gazette that only parts of her original story were embellished.  She says she was sexually assaulted and tortured, but the claims of having to eat feces, drink urine and the scalding water and being beaten with switches were made up parts of her tale.  

According to Williams she lied at the time at the behest of her late mother Carmen Williams. She says her mother told her if she lied, she would be able to get money out of the incident.  Williams says she's now receiving death threats and wants to get her story out.
