*NEW INFO* Police say Ashley Todd's statement has "inconsistencies" and "has changed"


.
.
.
Speaking to Channel 4 Action News on Friday, Richard said they're still questioning Todd because of some new developments.

"We have learned that the victim's statement has a few inconsistencies in it and her statement has changed," said Richard

Richard said Todd now says she isn't sure if it was a bumper sticker on her car or a campaign button on her jacket that angered the attacker. Richard said Todd added new details to the attack, saying at one point she lost consciousness.

"She also indicated she was sexually assaulted as well. She indicated that when he had her on the ground he put his hand up her blouse and started fondling her. But other than that, she says she doesn't remember anything else. So we're adding a sexual assault to this as well," Richard said.

So.... now she's saying that she "forgot to mention the sexual fondling" in her original statement and that she had "lost consciousness".


Riiigggghhht. The little detail about being fondled escaped her mind when she talked to the cops originally.


This girl needs psychiatric help. I hope they provide it to her in prison.

9. Mr. Scorpio - I am ashamed of this. Incidents like this make me a
danger for any black male who doesn't know me. We Americans talk about how people fear young black males. How many realize that hte word of a white woman can still destroy a man's life in seconds? The Scottsburo boys are not history.

17. I'm expecting a huge backlash of outcry if she's exposed as a fraud
People supporting her without question would have to review their reactions

20. Next it will come out she pregnant. I am beginning to see her angle, MY NO PROOF THEORY
She went to Philly, met a black man, made a baby, but she can't go back home to Texas with a black baby
So she came up with this story. So her family would disown her!

4. If there's no corroborating evidence, they (police/media) need to stop listening to her.
I don't believe that they can institutionalize her if she's not a threat to herself or others but CLEARLY this young woman has "emotional issues" that need the intervention of the mental health community. I hope those fellow republicans, or friends and family intervene soon on her behalf, i.e., get her some help in the area of counseling and/or therapy.

21. and waited 45 minutes to call the police. Oh, and drove BY HERSELF at 1am to a hospital..
If I was in a strange town, attacked that way, I wouldn't leave the house until daylight.. and then I'd have someone with me. There is no fucking way she drove herself to a hospital at 1am if that story was true. Considering she also said that she couldn't figure out where she was.. but she was only a mile from a friend's house.

14. There is absolutely NO SWELLING at all under her left eye
your photo shop pic is much more realistic! I had these people. I heard Neil Boortz discuss this on the way to work. I have yet to transfer my Sirius over to my truck so I listen to local hate right wing on the way in.

23. I have to say, I had to add a LOT of stuff to make it look real, including swelling
...which shows her own attempt is not only not real, it's clearly a poorly done fake.

11. It sounds like she was attacked by an octypus.
2 hands to hold her down, 1 hand holding the knife, another hand holding the money and now a fifth hand fondling her.

Police have taken a 22 year old Louisiana man named Duque Lacroxe into custody.

They took 15 photographs of him, and are using them to have her pick him out of a photo lineup of those 15 photographs.

35. I wonder when the police will STOP relying on lineups and eyewitness testimony.
So many innocent people have been sent to jail based on the human tendency to confabulate events. Or in the case of Angela Todd, fucking LIE about them.

29. omigod.. her story keeps changing.
she probably read on the internet that the B is too perfect for someone who was struggling.. that's why she came up with this sudden "unconscious" part of her story. how in the HELL can she leave all of that out and still be considered credible by anyone???

39. How 'unfortunate' or convenient. I can't decide.
Edited on Fri Oct-24-08 11:18 AM by xxqqqzme
'...Richard said the woman refused medical treatment after the assault, which happened outside the view of the bank's surveillance cameras...'

I'm confused - did she lose consciousness: 1) while the 'b' was being 'carved', w/ that dull knife (interesting observation); 2) before or after she was assaulted or 3) when she was hit on the head. Was she hit on the head before or after the 'b' was carved or before or after she was assaulted.

So many questions, so many holes.

44. I'm usually willing to give people a HUGE benefit of the doubt.
Mugged? Sure, I'd buy it, it's possible.

Mugged, decided not to call the police right away? Possible.... did she not have a cell phone? Oops.

Mugged, scratched with knife instead of cut? I'll be blunt -- I've seen a LOT of mutilated bodies -- if you want a picture to give you nightmares, check the picture of Elizabeth Short's face that's out on the Internet. If a person is going to cut someone in the face, they're going to cut.

Changing the story to add fondling?

....

I was really hoping that was from The Onion or something.

-------------

If she was mugged, I hope she recovers and I hope the perp is caught, and I don't buy the idea that she "asked for it" by being in the wrong part of town.

But if I was mugged, kicked, hit, threatened with a knife, lost consciousness, and groped, and had a cell phone... I can guarantee you I would have gotten in my car and immediately called 911. And that's going with the story that she didn't remember the B being cut. Er, scratched.
