1/14/09 - UPDATE - A Brecknock Township man pleaded guilty Tuesday to falsely accusing a former Cumberland County commissioner of raping him.
William M. McCurdy, 21, of the 1100 block of Alleghenyville Road entered his plea to making false reports and unsworn falsification in Cumberland County Court.McCurdy is free on bail pending sentencing in March by Judge Edward E. Guido. The charges carry penalties of up to three years in prison...
State police investigating the accusation uncovered hidden video-recording equipment in Barclay's home. Investigators said Barclay hired male prostitutes on a weekly basis and used the hidden cameras to secretly record more than 100 sexual encounters inside his house.
The videotapes refuted McCurdy's rape accusation, investigators said, but led to Barclay's arrest on charges of wiretapping and related offenses. (more)
