Megan Williams now says she was tortured and raped in a trailer in Logan County in 2007.
Less than a month ago, Williams recanted her story. She claims she hoped it would stop threatening phone calls she has been receiving.
"We got 26 phone calls straight in a row one night," Williams said during a phone interview.
Williams now claims she fabricated parts of her story. She said she made up allegations of being forced to eat rat, dog and human feces. She also claims she made up having to drink urine.
"Half of it is true and half is not true," Williams said.
She maintains she was stabbed and had her hair pulled out. Based on their own admissions, seven people were convicted of crimes against Williams.
Whatever happened in the trailer, the truth is it left a young woman trying to pick up the pieces of her life.
