9-17-2009 Washington:
King County prosecutors have filed second-degree extortion charges against a Renton woman accused of threatening to report a former lover as a rapist if he didn't pay her $2,000.
In court documents, Mercer Island police contend that Jeanine Ann Gessner began harassing the man after he broke a date with her to attend a pre-season Seahawks game on Aug. 22.
An instant message exchange between Gessner and the man included in court filings shows a marked shift in her attitude toward him following the broken date. Initially loving, the writer whom prosecutors allege to be Gessner ultimately sent the man dozens of threatening messages.
When the man said he would take legal action if the harassment continued, prosecutors allege Gessner began threatening she would make a false police report accusing the man of raping her.
"Let's go coward," Gessner allegedly wrote. "Who are the police going to believe? You or me? You are out of your league(.) Don't start something that you will loose(sic)."
Prosecutors allege Gessner went on to demand $2,000 for her silence.
In charging documents, prosecutors note that she was convicted of third-degree malicious mischief in a separate April domestic violence incident involving another victim, and is the subject of two anti-harassment orders filed by two other men.
Gessner was arrested Sept. 3 and later released. ..Source.. by Levi Pulkkinen

Great! They introduce this criminal to REAL victims so she learns to tell a more credible lie next time!! How about sentencing her to PRISON where the victim of her lie would have had to go? How about publishing her photograph and personal information like the next victim of hers will be?
How about a sex offender registry for false accusers to protect the innocent? It's breath taking these prosecutors would treat such a serious crime in this manner.
