-snip-

"Police say bank surveillance footage doesn't show her at an ATM where she says she was attacked.

Todd, who is white, now says she was knocked unconscious and doesn't remember being cut. She now says she only discovered the wound later. "

It is fortunate for this young woman that she probably was not really attacked - a real knife wound would have been very ugly, and this looks more like a scratch from a nail file. However, it is unfortunate for our McCain that she is a *probably* a nutcase willing to fabricate a story about a racially/politically motivated attack, because the media will only focus on this story, and not on the real attacks that ARE taking place out there.

I’d *almost* be willing to say that she’s a MoveOn.org plant - she’s been allegedly involved with Ron Paul’s campaign, and he was heavily (albeit unwittingly) underwritten by MoveOn in their unsuccessful version of Operation Chaos. That being said, if this young woman’s story turns out to be untrue (as it is beginning to appear it is) then we should throughly vet her to see if she is working for MoveOn.org in an attempt to undermine McCain...

Definately a hoax from the beginning.

The question is whether this is a crazy chick or dirty tricks.

I need to know 3 things. 1) Bank receipt. 2) Med exam from hospital. 3) results of polygraph she took today.

Did anybody else notice that the “B” carved on her face is backwards? Looks like it was done while looking in a mirror, hmmm...

Crimini --- just what the McCain campaign didn't need - a 20 year old hoaxster making racially tainted, unfounded charges of violence.

She's cost him a lot of votes with this stunt.

The “B” looks like it was carved upside down, consistent with a “mugger” holding her face up and carving it looking at her down from the top of her head.

It still does not pass the smell test.

(Maybe the mugger was a Boston Red Sox fan, upset that they lost to the Tampa Rays. Hence the carved “B”) /sarc

Whatever votes she cost him will be made up with the votes McCain gains with the thousands of people that heard the story and believe it did or COULD happen...This story and the resulting oversaturation by the media defending Obama will only serve to further paint him as the “black candidate”...

Doesn't the police report say Right cheek? That means the photo being circulated may have been her photo she took by pointing the camera at a mirror.

Makes as much sense as any of the other supposition going on...

Ah yes, those Sox fans are so ... so ... so radical! This kid is either making this up as a publicity stunt she hoped woul dget her attention like Joe the Plumber is getting, or she was put up to this. With the media floating in Obama septic tank, the public will never know the truth at this point.

Yes it would.

Has anyone else mentioned this?

I would think the police would have asked for one in order to pinpoint the location.

If there is no receipt, then her bank would have all of that information, because it appears on the bank statement.

The bank statement would name time, date and ATM number/location.

Bank video might be from the wrong ATM?

Also, inner city police could be obamatrons and doing everything in their power to discredit her.

For the sake of all, I hope it’s true.

If this really happened it is a shame, and I feel bad for her.

If this does turn out to be fake, it will make our side look as loony as they say we are.

Bank records can confirm whether or not she withdrew money.

No, her right cheek would be on the left side of the photo. In anatomy, left and right are from the patient’s perspective. The “B” is backwards.

I seem to recall that the "victim" was using a mobile communication device of some kind to do texting while she was on the road. The communication company can tell from the signals received approximately where she was located while she was transmitting a signal. This evidence may also indicate that she was not where she was claiming to be.

Didn't anybody learn anything from the O.J. slow speed pursuit?

reminds me of the cop here that shot himself last year and blamed it on a “black man”

grellis, any chance you got links to that? outcome, what all he was charged with, maybe some of the loud cries of “racism” we had to listen to here?
