A Seattle teenager’s claim that abuse by Seattle police caused her to miscarry has become a viral Internet sensation of the Occupy Wall Street movement, but no evidence has emerged to support her allegation.

I thought this story was fishy she started saying she new the gender. Another woman is claiming the police clubbed her 8 months pregnant bump and caused a stillbirth.
 
Hmmm…

When I heard her interviewed, live, the evening of the event, she never mentioned any one hitting her, or pushing her. She only mentioned that she had been sprayed with the pepper spray. She then showed up a few days later, with some of the other “occupiers” at the Seattle Police HQ to protest the incident. No mention of a miscarriage, either time.

Hmmmmmm…

Do you live up here, BTW? If you do, then you know how “interesting” articles in The Stranger can be. I used to read The Stranger as well as the Seattle Times for a living, along with 37 other papers each day.:coffeeread:

Then, I will point out that The Stranger is a publication that is as vile as I would want to read. It comes out weekly, for free, on the newsstands. It is free because it is filled with pornographic ads that pay for its printing. Like I said, I had to read it for a living. However, I would cover all the vile, nasty, pornographic pictures and ads with one arm, while reading the explicative deleted filled text to find whatever it was that my clients wanted. I will say, it was the best source of restaurant reviews among all my papers, and I had many, many restaurant clients.

So, if she gave her “interview” to The Stranger, then you can take it for what it might be worth.
