LINCOLN -- Authorities say they will charge a Lincoln woman with making false statements to police after she claimed last month that three men broke into her Lincoln home, carved anti-gay slurs into her skin and tried to light her house on fire. Lancaster County Attorney Joe Kelly says a judge issued an arrest warrant Tuesday for 33-year-old Charlie Rogers. Police had spent weeks investigating the case as a hate crime, saying it appeared to be motivated by anti-gay bias. Rogers told police she was attacked by three masked men July 19. She reportedly crawled from her house, naked, bleeding and screaming for help.
