False informing charges have been filed against an Indianapolis woman after she allegedly told Bartholomew County authorities that she was raped under a highway overpass by an ex-boyfriend who was also an out-of-state police officer who was wanted for murder.

Deputies could find no evidence of the crime and found out that the woman allegedly made the same accusations at communities across the state including Bedford, Bloomington and Indianapolis.

According to reports from the sheriff’s department, the local incident started at about 11:35 p.m. the night of June 11th when 29-year-old Tiffany McGinnis went into a gas station and reported the alleged rape. She said it has happened under the Interstate 65 and U.S. 31 overpass. Deputies searched the area extensively and couldn’t find a suspect or any evidence.

McGinnis was taken to Columbus Regional Hospital for an evaluation.

Deputies continued their investigation and discovered McGinnis has previously been charged with false informing in Morgan and Lawrence counties after making similar accusations, deputies say.

Based on the information provided by McGinnis, local deputies also could not find an identity for the suspect.

After another interview with McGinnis, she allegedly admitted the story was false, deputies report. She is being charged with false informing, a Class A misdemeanor.
