(AP) — A Michigan woman who pleaded no contest to pulling off a cancer scam has been sentenced to one year in jail that will be served at the same time as another prison sentence.

Sara Ylen (WHY’-len) of Lexington accepted thousands of dollars from supporters and was treated by a hospice service for two years after claiming to have cancer. Authorities say it was an extraordinary lie: No doctor has stepped forward to even suggest she had cancer.

Ylen appeared Wednesday in Sanilac County court, 90 miles northeast of Detroit. A no-contest plea is treated like a regular conviction for the purpose of a sentence.

In a separate case, Ylen was last month sentenced to a minimum of five years in prison for falsely accusing two men of raping her.
