A Long Island woman has been sentenced to a year in jail after falsely accusing two football players at her university of rape. Nikki Yovino, 19, accepted a plea deal of one year after she accused two male Sacred Heart University students of raping her; the two men said they had consensual sex with her. Police said that Yovino made up the story so another male student, a friend and potential boyfriend, would believe her. Doc and Kris talk about the long-term effects of false rape allegations and why this kind of insidious lie is so devastating.
