Pennsylvania woman’s heinous excuse after falsely accusing man she never met of attempted rape and kidnapping
A Pennsylvania woman said she falsely accused an innocent man she never met of trying to rape and kidnap her all because he looked ‘creepy’.
Anjela Borisova Urumova, 20, pleaded guilty on Thursday to filing a false police report against 41-year-old Daniel Pierson, whom she accused of attempting to kidnap and rape her.
Pierson was held on a $1 million bail, charged with multiple felonies and spent a month in jail as a result of the false claims.
According to the Bucks County District Attorney’s Office, Urumova alleged that on April 16, 2024, Pierson attacked her outside of a supermarket.
She claimed that he had pulled her pants down and struck her in the face.
‘As part of the investigation, Middletown Township Police collected and reviewed available surveillance videos from multiple retailers in the area of the reported attack, and a detective with the Bucks County District Attorney’s Office conducted a forensic review of Urumova’s cellphone data,’ the DA’s office said in a release.
‘The review led to the discovery of multiple inconsistencies and contradictory information with Urumova’s account of the attack.’
Urumova was confronted by authorities and ‘admitted she lied about the entire incident’, confirming she hadn’t been attacked by anyone, prosecutors said.

Urumova also said that she ‘specifically targeted’ and identified Pierson as her attacker because she had ‘seen him and the truck in the past’ and was able to describe him and the vehicle to the police.
She described the vehicle as a dark blue Ford F-150 pickup truck with a ‘thin blue line’ sticker on the back windshield with visible dents and rust of the exterior.
The injury to her face was allegedly due to an altercation with a family member.
‘Her grandmother, who Urumova claimed suffered from dementia, did not recognize her as she entered the house and threw a plastic object at her, striking her in the lip. This incident allegedly caused the laceration to her lip that she later blamed on Pierson,’ the criminal complaint said, Law & Crime reported.
Urumova pleaded guilty to seven misdemeanor charges: one count each of false alarm to an agency of public safety and tampering with or fabricating physical evidence, two counts of false reports, and three counts of unsworn falsification to authorities.
The charges against Pierson were dropped, and he was freed.
Common Pleas Judge Stephen Corr deferred sentencing so she can undergo a pre-sentence investigation.
The story comes just months after a woman claimed video evidence exonerating her two alleged rapists was edited.
Amanda Zawieruszynski, 40, whose rape claim against two black men was thrown out by a grand jury is sticking to her story, claiming key evidence was tampered with
John Marks and Freddie Douglas were arrested in December 2023, but the aggravated rape and kidnapping charges were dismissed by a grand jury in May after footage from Marks’ home security system exonerated them
Amanda Zawieruszynski, 40, accused her neighbor John Marks, 41, of raping her on November 8 last year along with his friend, policeman Freddie Douglas, 43.
The mother-of-three claimed the pair forced her to have a threesome in the pool at Marks’ house in in Manvel, just outside Houston.
Marks and Douglas were arrested in December 2023, but the aggravated rape and kidnapping charges were dismissed by a grand jury in May after footage from Marks’ home security system exonerated them.
The men accused her of racism. They said her claims were an attempt to invoke white privilege to put them behind bars.
But Zawieruszynski insisted her rape claims were true and filed her own lawsuit on August 26 demanding more than $1 million in damages.
Zawieruszynski, in her complaint, claimed the footage was tampered with to make the men look innocent.
However, Douglas’ lawyer Michael Kerensky told DailyMail.com her claim the footage was altered was ‘pure fantasy’ and was being used to ‘justify the false allegations’.
‘Marks never deleted any of the footage, and even if he did, the district attorney’s office obtain the full, unedited source video from the Ring doorbell company’ where all footage is backed up and can’t be altered by the customer, he added.
Kerensky said the grand jury viewed the full footage during their deliberations, which are – by law – closed to both parties.
Zawieruszynski, who said she was a single mother-of-three since breaking up with her husband Michael last year, claimed she was forced to flee her home with her family because Marks and Douglas harassed her.
Her lawsuit claimed she ‘believed she would die that night’ and was held captive and raped numerous times, each more violent than the last, which it laid out in graphic detail – some too horrifying to publish.
