Jury Quickly Convicts Woman In False Rape Trial

From CBS Detroit:
A Michigan woman accused of lying for years about having cancer was convicted Thursday in a separate case of falsely accusing two men of rape.

The jury took less than 30 minutes to convict 38-year-old Sara Ylen after a three-day trial in St. Clair County, 60 miles northeast of Detroit.

Ylen was charged with making up a story about two men attacking her in her Lexington home in 2012. Ylen was also convicted of tampering with evidence after police said she used makeup to create what looked like bruises. She did not testify in her own defense.
One question, how long would the men's sentences have been, if they were convicted of raping the woman? She need to serve at least that long.
