Legal fight over money raised for rape fantasist Eleanor Williams
Shane Yerrell helped raise more than £22,000 in the aftermath of Eleanor Williams' fictitious claims of abuse
He later handed over the money to her family with the intention it would be used to cover her legal fees.Her mother, Allison Johnston, has been approached for comment. However, a police investigation and subsequent trial found the claims were a web of lies and her injuries self-inflicted. "I'm going to take legal action to recover the money in full. It's with a solicitor at the moment and we go from there.
But Women's Community Matters, in Barrow, and the Maggie Oliver Foundation which helps survivors of sexual abuse, turned down the funds following the conclusion of the trial in January.
