VerifiedThank you. If she contacted the detective and admitted she lied, this matter is over and there's nothing that will happen. However, it would have had a 5 year statute of limitations, so even if she never spoke to the detective, you have nothing more to worry about with regard to this incident.
Yes. It's been more than 5 years since the alleged incident.
