A local woman faced charges on Wednesday of allegedly lying about being raped by a Detroit Lions' player.
Nicole Dolores Milburn, 22, stood silently before a judge at the 19th District Court in Dearborn as she was arraigned on charges of filing a false police report claiming Lions' wide receiver Scotty Anderson raped her in September, Local 4 reported.
Milburn -- a student at a local university and a former exotic dancer -- was one of five people at Anderson's Dearborn apartment on Sept. 18.
Prosecutors said Anderson had sex with Milburn's friend and discarded condoms on his bedroom floor. Milburn picked up the used condoms and planned to use the contents to substantiate her rape claim, Local 4 reported.
Wayne County Prosecutor Mike Duggan said Milburn (pictured, left) was not raped in September and never had sex with Anderson. Witnesses at the apartment supported Anderson's claims that he did not have sex with Milburn, the station reported.
"We are going to make a point in this office to start to prosecute aggressively anybody who makes a false police report," Duggan said.
Milburn's attorney, Todd Flood, says his client has a case against Anderson.
"We're going to try it in the courtrooms. I'm not going to try it in the media. And, from everything we have right now, our client is the victim in this case," Flood said. "I got to go through what the prosecutor has, see what they're making their allegations on."
Flood told Local 4 that Milburn has gone through testing and has passed, but he would not elaborate on what type of tests were run.
The woman's family also said that Anderson has been making threatening phone calls to Milburn. Attorneys would not comment on the alleged calls, but said they would be brought up in the upcoming trial, the station reported.
Milburn was released Wednesday on a $10,000 personal bond.

Anderson (pictured, right) was placed on the injured reserve list Nov. 17 after he suffered a high ankle sprain in the Lions 35-14 loss in Seattle a day earlier. Before being put on IR, Anderson was leading the Lions with 325 yards receiving.
In May, Anderson and his brother were stabbed outside a Houston nightclub. Anderson escaped the assault with relatively minor shoulder wounds, but his brother, Stevie, a former NFL wide receiver, lost a lot of blood because of a severe thigh wound. Both have recovered well.
Anderson also was the victim of a carjacking in January 2002, when authorities say a woman lured Anderson and his cousin to a Louisiana parking lot where others laid in wait with guns to carjack him.
A high-tech security system directed police to the customized Cadillac DTS' location, a remote area in the Cade community. The vehicle still was being stripped when police arrived.
Anderson said in August before the season started that he was determined to put those things behind him and concentrate on football.
