Ashley Todd, the 20-year-old John McCain volunteer who lied and said that a big black man mugged and sexually assaulted her before carving a "B" for Barack into her face last week, struck a deal with prosecutors and will be released from jail today. She has to undergo psychiatric counseling and enter a diversion program for first time offenders. If she completes the program successfully, she can have her record wiped clean. Lucky her. [PTR]
BULL CRAP. She needs to go to jail. Are you freakin' kidding me.
So does that mean she doesn't get to vote in this year's election? I know she's not a felon, but please say she can't vote on Tues.
Wonder if McCain's campaign intervened on her behalf?
B*tch could have caused some innocent black man to catch a case. Just because it fell apart before it got to that stage, doesn't diminish the harm she could have caused. I say throw her in jail with some folks who might not appreciate her zeal for McSame.
fucking hate her
Me,
If TI gets to vote she probably can….
Anon,
I thought felony voting rights varied by state?
Seeing her face and thinking about her casting a vote irks me.
This is one of the things I love about the internet, instant answers. Here's a PDF that breaks down felon voting rights by state: http://projectvote.org/fileadm.....1_2008.pdf
Only good news is that if people see her face it might convince them to vote for Obama since the McCain campaign has been full of disappointing race baiting. McCain needs to realize that people see through his pathetic tactics, and every word that comes out of Palin's mouth and every hateful slur shouted by supporters at the rallies tarnishes the political career he spent so long building. In short Ashley Todd is an F-ing moron who deserved more than a slap on the wrist. Please God let Obama win.
she is a disgrace and should be punished to the full extent of the law. not only for her false accusations, but for the waste of taxpayer provided funds to pursue this case. from what i'm hearing, we can't afford to waste money.
She should get the same sentence that the girl and District Attorney got for making false allegations against the Duke lacrosse team. This stuff hurts race relations and innocent people get hurt.
Absolutely disgusting, and wrong. This election has already reached a new nadir of racial tension and hate-speech, without some insane cow spilling more blood into the water. Terrific, give her a mental evaluation. She can then receive her medicine and pyschotherapy in prison.
If you guys are mad now wait until Lifetime does a movie about her.
ROFL!!! Whuddup "B"?
This is being treated much less seriously than it actually is. If she had been believed, an innocent person could have been arrested or even convicted, and damage could have been done to a presidential candidate's campaign. This isn't the kind of thing you should be getting "first-time offender" leniency on.
