A Bethlehem woman who stabbed herself and blamed it on a black man and tried to get others to stab her because she feared a drug test would send her back to jail is, well, in jail.

Amber Paige Moeck, 27, was charged by Jim Thorpe Police Detective Lee J. Marzen with criminal solicitation to commit aggravated assault; criminal use of a communication facility; false alarm to a public service agency; criminal solicitation to commit simple assault; unsworn falsification to authorities; making false reports, and obstructing authorities on Jan. 24.

She admitted to the false alarm charge, and Judge Steven Serfass sentenced her to serve two to 24 months in jail; pay a $100 LiveScan fee; a $50 monthly supervision fee; court costs; obtain a drug and alcohol evaluation and perform 100 hours of community service.

The remaining charges were dropped.

According to police, Moeck used meth at a Lehighton house on Jan. 23. The next morning, the person who was with her when she ingested the drug went to the home of a Jim Thorpe man, where Moeck was sitting at the kitchen table with a knife.

She told friends she had a meeting with her federal probation officer that day, and knew she’d fail her drug test.

Moeck asked her friends to stab her so she could avoid the test.

According to the Jim Thorpe man, Moeck showed up at his house that morning, bleeding from stab wounds in her lung area. He took her to a hospital, where she told police she’d been “stabbed by a black man who then ran off and drove away in a blue freaking sportster Honda.”

She told police the man had been following her for two weeks.

Later, she told police she had lied, and that it was her Jim Thorpe friend, William Shook, who had complied with her request that he stab her.

Shook admitted to police that he stabbed her four times. He was also charged in the incident.
