NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- A 20-year-old black woman told police she was set on fire by three men who wrote the initials KKK and a racial slur on her car in northeastern Louisiana.

Louisiana State Police spokeswoman Lt. Julie Lewis says Sharmeka Moffitt was found with burns on more than half of her body when police responded to her 911 call Sunday night.

Burns over half her body and she had the mental clarity to find a hose and put herself out? Most people would roll on the ground, not go find a hose and turn it on.

Not saying her story is secessarily untrue, but it does sound kinda fishy. Regardless, I hope she heals well and I hope that the truth comes out. If three guys burned her, they deserve long jail sentences with plenty of forced romance behind the bars. If she did it to herself, I want everyone to know her name so she can be the butt of innumerable jokes.

Sounds fishy, but we do have our Shawn Berrys, Lawrence Brewers, and John Kings. They’re not mythical beasts.

Funny, how walking through the park she just happened to know where a hose was and was close enough to use it when some racists set her on fire...

Bingo! No doubt little Sharmeka has a police record. The ‘shake and bake’ meth theory seems way more likely.

Even money says that before this over the media will spin it that those white guys where clean cut fellows wearing short sleeve white shirts, black ties and funny little nametags.

Mode of getaway was either on foot or on bicycle. /s
