We have all the ingreients for a leftist wet dream- Halliburton, Texas, Iraq, and a gang-rape cover up. I am more than a little suspicious.

Jamie Leigh Jones, now 22, of Houston, Texas, says she was gang-raped by her KBR, then a subsidiary of Halliburton, coworkers while working in Baghdad. Now -- more than two years later -- she says the company and the U.S. government are still covering up the incident. (ABC News)

Jones, who told her story to ABC News as part of an upcoming "20/20" investigation, said an examination by Army doctors after the incident showed she had been raped "both vaginally and anally," but that the rape kit disappeared after it was handed over to KBR security officers. (ABC News)

If it's phony, why did she have to be rescued from a shipping container?

I'm getting deja vu on this one - captors who lock her in a shipping carton, then lend her a cellphone to call her parents? I suppose we'll next be told that the accused attended Duke and played on the lacross team, prior to Halliburton recruiting them.

said an examination by Army doctors

If the doc's back her up, there will be hell to pay, and someone will need a big, big check book!

Jones told ABCNews.com that an examination by Army doctors showed she had been raped "both vaginally and anally," but that the rape kit disappeared after it was handed over to KBR security officers.

Why would Army doctors hand over key criminal evidence against a private contractor to a private contractor?

I am sure that usual rules of procedure in military policing would not entail delivering evidence into the hands of a private party, but to whichever legal authority was charged with handling the complaint.

So, she wasn’t in the military. What was a 20 year-old woman doing working IN IRAQ as a contractor?

This whole story has a smell to it.

Judging from the story, it may have been Blackwater that rescued her from the container.

If it was anybody but ABCNBCCBSCNN breaking this, I might not be so suspicious.

At a time when the Leftmedia desperately needs some negative news from Iraq....

You would be the most informed person on FR about such matters.
