Lying Lockport Lady Called 911 And Said She'd Been Attacked By Mystery Slasher: Cops

The Lockport woman is wanted on felony charges for allegedly lying to the police about getting slashed with a knife.

LOCKPORT, IL — A Lockport liar called the cops and made up a story about getting attacked by a mysterious slasher, police said.

Crystal Juliano’s alleged dishonesty bought her a pair of felony disorderly conduct charges. The 28-year-old is a wanted woman and the warrant for her arrest carries a $25,000 bond.

On Wednesday, Juliano called 911 and claimed “she had been slashed with a knife by an unknown man, when, at the time the call was made, (she) knew there was no reasonable grounds for making the call and further knew that the call could result in the emergency response of a public safety agency,” according to a criminal complaint filed in Will County court.

Juliano works at Presence St. Joseph Medical Center in Joliet, according to the warrant for her arrest. Her Linkedin page lists her last job as an outpatient care tech at Edward Hospital in Naperville.
