UF Cheerleader Arrested for Fake Police Report

A UF cheerleader was arrested Monday for filing a false police report, a misdemeanor, according to the University Police Department.

Lauren Beard, 20, was arrested after police discovered she was the author of several e-mails she had reported to be from someone stalking her, UPD Det. Amanda Spurlin said. According to the arrest report, Beard came to police on Feb. 18 to report threatening e-mails she received.
“They gave the impression someone could be following her or stalking her,” Spurlin said.

Police then began an investigation in which the e-mails were subpoenaed and were found to be sent from Beard’s computer. [UF Alligator]
