A New Jersey woman who was found bound with zip ties in the woods and marked with a derogatory phrase referencing President Donald Trump is now accused of staging the attack.

Natalie Greene, 26, is charged with conspiracy to convey false statements and hoaxes and making false statements to federal law enforcement.

According to court documents, Greene and a co-conspirator called 911 late July 23 and claimed that three men had attacked them on a trail at the Egg Harbor Township Nature Reserve. The co-conspirator told dispatchers the men referenced Greene by name and mentioned her job in politics. According to reports, Greene previously worked for a Republican congressman.

Why is it always the right entangling themselves in crime?

[–] Lightfire228@pawb.social 158 points 2 days ago (6 children)

Me: I wonder how they know it was staged

But investigators later concluded Greene had staged the attack, alleging she paid a body modification artist earlier to make it look like she was injured. Officers also found zip ties in Greene’s vehicle similar to those used on her, and the co-conspirator’s phone had been used two days earlier to search “zip ties near me."

Lol

I wasn't aware zip ties were that hard to find for some people

I guess when you order everything online your whole life, you may never develop a sense of what stores and what departments items are usually sold in. 🤔

Did... did this idiot think they weren't going to go to the hospital with her and then when the ER doc tried to clean the wound it... wiped away...that the police were going to just think the 3 guys where just wanting to have a dress up tea party or something.

[–] butwhyishischinabook@piefed.social 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Oh no no, she committed to the scam harder than that. She paid a body modification artist to cut her up.

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

That makes it even funnier. She now has permanent reminders of how fucking stupid she is.

"She had lacerations on her face, neck, chest and shoulder"

Scarification is a form of body mod

did this idiot think

Lemme stop you right there.

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

Lol fair enough

[–] nullroot@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

A body mod artist does literally wound you, it's not paint. It's plugs cut out, sub dermals inserted, or just ears pierced if you're vanilla, that's the sort of thing they do.

[–] Vex_Detrause@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 day ago

ER staff smells that BS in seconds of opening her mouth.

They really like to manufacture unreality and sell it as true.

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 86 points 2 days ago (14 children)

This one is super weird though. Why in the world would anyone hog tie someone like that and then write shit about trump on her? I'm guessing she's another alcoholic for trump. Regardless, she's in for a ride:

Each count carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

For the same reason these people think that someone would Sharpie "FUCK ICE" onto a clip of bullets after killing only detainees at an ICE facility, and then just plop it on the ground.

Many MAGAts that face social consequences for their MAGAtism cry victim and and then circled with attention and monetary support by other MAGAts. Since they aren't actually victims and they want the attention, they manufacture the victim status.

Sadly this isn't confined to MAGAts. Actor Jussie Smollett did the same thing attempting to manufacture victimhood of a hate crime. What really angers me about Smollett is that there are real victims of race based hate crimes and his antics cast doubt on those other real victim's situations.

It's not as weird once you realize that they need everyone to be as crazy and stupid as they are. They can't stand a world where that's not true.

Really stupid. She could have just said a slur on tik tok and been a millionaire from donations by now.

[–] Mongostein@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 day ago

So were the words “Trump whore” what she had cut in to her, or was it random cuts with TW written in sharpie or something?

I hope a critter peed on her

Edit: anyone who can’t guess where to buy zip ties is a moron

[–] TastehWaffleZ@lemmy.world 36 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Jesus, I had to go into the article to figure out what you were talking about and it's so pathetic.

But investigators later concluded Greene had staged the attack, alleging she paid a body modification artist earlier to make it look like she was injured. Officers also found zip ties in Greene’s vehicle similar to those used on her, and the co-conspirator’s phone had been used two days earlier to search “zip ties near me."

[–] PolarKraken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 29 points 2 days ago

"zip ties near me", amazing, perfectly fitting for our era of unreality
