    Excluding the peeling of skin and the pigmentation, they would look similar. Begs the question, they both went through a similar experience(albeit for totally different reasons), one has her skin melting and the other one has burn patches.

    Suspicion that it is a hoax.

    Liberal Wisconsin?

    Anyways I have to admit I'm incredibly disappointed with the posters here. She says she got burned and your instinct is to post "she's faking it". How sad that is to see that opinion. It doesn't matter if it's real or not. At least let her hear you say "I'm sorry this happened to you, and I hope justice is done".

    Isn't lying to the FBI a federal crime? So, if she's lying, it's probably tied with the dumbest thing she ever done in her life up until now. I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt, and let the FBI determine what happened and punish whomever is in the wrong.

    Sudden rush to judgment and blame seems to be the way the country has been going the last 16 years or more. We could probably put a lot of the onus on social media and everyone having a phone in their pocket to "show the world" part of the whole story. Everyone makes a quick decision.

    We need to get back to "due process" where people are innocent until proven guilty. In this case, that goes for the "four mysterious strangers" as well as the assumed victim.

    It has nothing to do with a legal process, or social media but a simple message saying I heard your pain, and we will look into it. No judgments about her, her attackers or anything. Just a bit of compassion towards a victim of a crime. Does your post have compassion in it? You're saying that we need to prove people are guilty, the subject is the perpetrators, the victim is treated as equal to them. That's not right at all.

    Because this "story" is even worse than the noose in it's believability! Four dudes walked up to this one random girl, spewed racist epitaphs, sprayed a liquid and then threw a lighter and the extent of her damage is THAT?

    This isn't sexual assault, where some assaults differ from the other, if you're going to claim fluid burns, etc then there's previous fluid burns we can look to.

    We have an ability to discern these things, we just need the WILLINGNESS to discern them.

    The burden of proof in this country is on the accuser, not the accused. We are a nation of laws. That's the law. I think the story is suspicious, but I'll give her the benefit of the doubt that she's telling the truth. I am more than happy to let the inquiry follow our system of due process.

    See LoneStar Gal? This is what I'm getting at. There is no compassion.

    It has nothing to do with legality, burden of proof or anything. It's simple compassion. Can a person say what happened was a tragedy and there is a promise they'll look into it? That's it. That's all that's being asked here and yet we have people like AmericanNationalist saying that she can't be believed because it doesn't meet his standards of proof as if they mattered in the first place.

    In order to illicit sympathy, it has to be a sympathetic situation. It *would* be sympathetic if in fact she were actually burned by these four-yet unidentified white men. But you know, and I know and we know that's not the case. Anymore than the knot that was tied at the end of a rope was a "NOOSE"

    What I'm more sympathetic about, is given where the evidence leads this is truly a traumatized young girl who felt the need to get attention in this way. I think it's a good place for a major psychological study on these false "hate crimes" and what propels a person to tell a hideous lie on something that wasn't true/never happened.

    I'm all for "withholding judgment" until the law goes through its process. The public has been fooled too many times over the last 4 years with "race hoaxers" which the media played up as "sympathetic victims" until the law found that the victim was lying for publicity or political purposed. I understand the cynicism. If everyone chilled out....particularly the biased institutional media and the knee-jerk social media influencers....until our legal system took its course, we'd all be better off.

    Speaking of social media influencers and high profile compassion....

    If the FBI finds that the young lady made up the story, no one will remember, because there will be 6 more stories by that time. It will get swept under the rug. If the girl is telling the truth and was attacked by Boogaloo Bois, then it will be one week of nothing but headlines every minute of the day.

    Never said it was inaccurate. I.asked which pic is accurate since the first pic posted showed the right side being injured but the second pic showed the left side being injured..So one pic is inaccurate. First or second?

    Why didn't you notice the incoherence ?

    If the first one is accurate she would have to spin her head 180 to be injured on the right side. Impossible.

    Do you know what happened during the incident to know why. Could not have the accelerant splashed around ??

    You seem bent on making this woman guilty of false accusations, ironic since you are doing the same thing :)

    These race based hoaxes are too common to not be skeptical. And when you have pics of the injury on both sides the incoherence should make you question it as well.

    If it happened as she says the skeptics will admit they are wrong..Unlike what we generally see from the SJ W modern progs. Who won't ..

    There have been too many hoax hate crimes and they typically come from people who lean left with the perp being someone who leans right. Notable hoaxes such as Smollett, Wallace, the banana peel in the tree, churches being burned, Muslims having their burkas ripped off, Duke lacrosse, etc. With all the hoax hate crimes being alleged by people who lean left, they've created the mindset that valid claims could be or probably are fake.

    Here's a list of some fake hate crimes:
    http://www.fakehatecrimes.org/

    Hate Crime Hoaxes Are More Common Than You Think
    A political scientist found that fewer than 1 in 3 of 346 such allegations was genuine.
    https://www.wsj.com/articles/hate-crime-hoaxes-are-more-common-than-you-think-11561503352

    The real tragedy regarding hate crimes in that probably thousands of them were committed when the left wing went rioting. I have not heard of a single hate crime being charged against anyone who yanked white people out of their cars and beat them.

    Here's the clincher for me.

    Excuse me while I put on my licensed X-Ray Tech hat.

    That dark line right there-

    105721482_2907992395996149_372512948252543598_n.jpg

    That's there because of what's beneath the skin. Specifically-

    9577c59a81d2fb9075b6c61d8472fe95.jpg

    The Zygomatic Bone. That dark line is there because her skin is more damaged, because the skin was compressed between her zygomatic bone, and whatever her face hit, or whatever hit her face. The dark line is extended longer too because the Zygomatic bone raises a bump there, so that skin area was in contact more than the other area of her face- the "hollow" of her cheek beneath her Zygomatic bone.

    A burn wouldn't demark underlying bone structure like that, because a burn is just topical.

    That's not a burn wound, it's an impact wound.

    This, I will apologize for being a crude heartless jerk if it turns out that she really was attacked by four racist white men out at 1 AM in the morning with nothing better to do.

    The lighter would have finger prints..

    A spray of lighter fluid should have covered the entire side of the face. And her hair should have blazed up like a torch..

    Just thinking out loud. Thinking is allowed I hope? If she says it was a bic
    kind of lighter that was thrown...we got another Smollet.. Until we get the forensic facts ...we won't know.

    If story is true I hope they find the criminals and they live in prison for a long time. And the right of center people here would want the same thing. No one sane would defend the criminal.

    This may sound retarded, but as kids we used to dip our fingers in rubbing alcohol and then light a match to it. The alcohol would burn, but not the skin. And the alcohol burned away fast, you wouldn't get any serious burn if didn't put it out, which was easy to do by waving your hand in the air real fast.

    Lots of people thought smollet faked it and they were right.

    If something appears to be questionable...don't believe it until the facts prove it ..

    These hoaxed hate crimes seem to be more common on the modern left. The end justifies the means.

    I am an ex democrat as I left that party when they stopped representing working Americans of all colors...citizens.

    Yet I am still a classic liberal which means no longer can I be a dem. Or a Republican either.. Nader is the kind of guy I vote for and have several times.

    So not a conservative but some of their beliefs are more sensible than what the modern progs believe in. And closer to classic liberalism than modern progressivism. Modern progs have little common sense. And will tear up a steel ball with a feather. They look to destroy this nation just to create change. Their change many times adds to the disorder and chaos in our crumbling society and culture. Their great achievements are in the past while they with the GOP have dismantled all of the good the wiser dems created.

    I saw this on the news. Her face will be scared for the rest of her life. How sad.
