This is indeed outrageous.

There is no doubt, of course, that she is technically guilty as charged.

However, there was no reason to prosecute her in the first place and certainly no reason to give her a custodial sentence! What earthly good does it do? I presume they want to deter people from withdrawing charges - but it won't! It'll just deter women from reporting rape in the first place.
