From the local CBS affiliate in Houston:

On Sunday at 8 p.m., Sharmeka Moffitt, [a Black woman] called 911 from a walking trail in Winnsboro, Louisiana and told authorities she had been doused in flammable liquid by three men wearing white hoodies. She suffered extensive burns on more than half her body and was taken to LSU Health Sciences Center in Shreveport for treatment.

After two days of investigating the case, authorities said Tuesday that the forensic evidence indicates Moffitt set herself on fire.

None of the news stories I have found mention the Tawana Brawley case. None of them ask whether Al Sharpton put her up to this. Isn’t that the first thing you’d think of?

Kind of sad that Black victimhood has become so alluring a Black woman would spray paint racial slurs on her care and then set herself on fire. To get, what? Notoriety? Attention? A lucrative lawsuit? Against whom? In the Tawana Brawley affair the aim was to set up six white men, some of whom were police officers, for legal settlements and/or prosecutions. But in this case the woman alleged, falsely we now know, that three men wearing KKK hoods did it but she doesn’t know what race they are and cannot describe them. Maybe she thought she could sue the KKK. But wait, the KKK is on its knees in America, with no real structure or entity that can be sued and has no money anyway. Anyone not brainwashed by Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton would know that. Weird.
