I haven’t had TV of any kind since 1995. Is there a web source for the press conference?

Wtf I was just listening to a press conference with a secret service person and then someone after him (didn’t catch the title) taking questions from reporters and when asked about the ethnicity of the victim they refused to answer. Then I heard one ask them to confirm it was an African-American of Somali descent, again said they are not releasing details about the victim. They wouldn’t confirm even that the child was AA. Then a woman gets on and mentions that bear in mind people are only seeing video of events at a certain point, and not what happened before or after.

Oh and also stated the woman had “mental problems.”

Not confirmed yet. In the beginning I thought it would be a white tea party member

May have been Somali according to question shouted out by reporter. ..so go figure. A Muslim Somali would be part of the protected class under Obama regime. Also cop said ‘child was taken to hospital’..then Capitol Police chick/dude said child was in protective custody. I wonder if the child was hit? All the windows shot out in car...it would be a miracle if she wasn’t hit.

It may be a domestic involving a security or secret service agent(wild speculation). Something is just not right here, but then again, it never is the unvarnished truth anymore in this country. Everything is steeped in mystery, wrapped in enigmas.

Fellow Freepers! Show your creativity.

"SHUTDOWN" ... "LOCKDOWN"....

Hey, you just know there's gotta be a rap song lurking in there somewhere!

"SHUT-down!
 LOCK-down!
 something..yadda..blah,
 These Clowns!
"

You get the general idea. Somebody take it from here...

I am wondering now if maybe she had previously dropped someone off that had bad intentions and was looking for that person. After all, what dental hygienist during the week drives alone with a child to DC and for what reason?

Now we are hearing the praises of the “heroic” Capitol Police. We are indeed living in a Brave New World.

If that's her it will probably be scrubbed from their website soon.

Miriam Carey, RDH:  we are excited to have Miriam!  She not only brings a delightful bedside manner, but also has a degree in nutrition that we hope to utilize in educating our patients about how important there diet is to maintaining optimum oral health.
