SEATTLE, Jan. 27 (UPI) -- The Washington state woman who claimed she was raped by illusionist David Copperfield has been arrested on prostitution charges, police said.

​

The U.S. Attorney's Office in Seattle recently announced it would not pursue a criminal case against Copperfield.

​

The Bellevue (Wash.) City Prosecutor's Office charged Carroll Tuesday with prostitution and filing a false report after she allegedly tried to get a man to pay $2,000 for sex last month, and then accused him of abusing her when he turned her down, The Seattle Times reported Wednesday.
