If she hadn't come forward and FORCED the police to release the
911 tapes SHE would be probably defending herself against some trumped up civil charge.
Isn't funny that once she was able to have the 911 call played on the air the media stopped hounding her and treating her like a social pariah?

Maybe when she sues all those that helped and allowed the libel, slander of her charatcer and threats to her person, then she'll have her 15 minutes of fame?

So let me recap again:
She is not a racist. Never had been.
She did not report any racially profiled 911 call.
She only answered the question the 911 dispatcher asked her about the ethnicity of the suspected persons.
She NEVER spoke with Officer Crowley.
She did not seek the media, the media hunted her down.
She came forward only after having her name and character slandered in the media and the public.
She had received threats to her person.

Any other questions?

Why are you so up in arms about this? I've followed this and haven't seen her labeled as a racist. She hasn't been slandered in any news reports I've read or heard. If anything, she's been a sympathetic figure because she was doing what any good citizen would do if they were in the same position. She's upset because some bloggers have called her a racist. As far as I know, bloggers aren't real news people. They're just people with opinions who have access to a computer.

And how do you know she didn't speak to the officer? Maybe she lied to you. I read her quotes as saying she never told Crowley the men were black. She didn't say she never spoke to him in the interview I read.
