Hamiltons' accuser jailed for three years

A mother of four who falsely accused former British Tory MP Neil Hamilton and his wife Christine of rape was today jailed for three years.

Nadine Milroy-Sloan was described as a cunning fantasist after she spun a web of deceit in her hunt for fame and fortune.

Jailing her at London’s Middlesex Guildhall Crown Court Judge Simon Smith said: “It’s becoming too easy for people to sell fake allegations about well-known people to the Press, and the courts have to deal with it firmly.”
