Woman starved for attention sets up a fake Facebook account and begins threatning herself
UNIVERSITY of Wyoming police say investigators traced a sexually, potentially threatening online comment to the personal computer of a former student who was the supposed target of the attack.
A police affidavit also says the computer was logged in under Meghan Lanker-Simons' user name when the comment was posted.
She was the target of a graphic comment on the 'UW Crushes' Facebook page that was written to appear as if it were authored by a conservative Republican.
Ms Lanker-Simons is a liberal advocate. The posting prompted a rally against sexual violence that she participated in.
But police say Ms Lanker-Simons authored the comment herself. She's charged with a misdemeanor count of interfering with police.
The Laramie Boomerang reports her lawyers are seeking to exclude evidence obtained by police.
