One report indicates she's changed her story again, said her husband was shot 4 times. That covers claims of being shot in the back of the head, front of the forehead, and neck. She won't go to Mexico to re-enact the jet ski events, fears being arrested.

I’m a cynic, I’ll admit. This was an odd story from the start. What, at most, did the attackers have to gain (two jet skis?) Something is rotten in Denmark, my friends.

I don’t know diddly-squat about how/why the guy was killed, if he were killed. I do know this, though—anyone with a brain cell firing would know that it’s a bad idea to go ski-jetting on that lake during these times.

What crime victim in their right mind would go to Mexico for questioning?

Who couldnt be badgered into changing her recollection of events after being chased across a lake on a jet ski and shot at by a gang and seeing her husband go down? It’s not like she was laser focused on how many shots her husband’s body absorbed There is a witness who saw her skiing for her life and being shot at.

I don’t know what she’s lying about, but she’s lying. I wouldn’t go to Mexico either, but her demeanor is that of a woman hiding something. Could have been a drug deal gone wrong, her husband shot, and she ran for the border. I just don’t know.

Hartley said that she hopes that by speaking with the investigators, without an attorney,

That's not even a good idea in America, no matter how innocent you really are. Definitely not a good idea in Mexico.

The wife of a man allegedly killed by pirates on a lake that straddles the U.S.-Mexico border will return to FBI offices today to resume a marathon session of questions from Mexican authorities.

I certainly hope she has her attorney with her.

So the Mexican drug cartel is the victim of an evil white American woman.

Amazing.

“Something about this story for some reason just isn’t adding up for me.” is what I said here a few weeks ago, and I stand by it today.

Arrest guarnteed.

Any kind of accident in Mexico, no matter what the circumstanees, you are put under arrest.

I was under house arrest there for 2 weeks when I crashed my airplane and so were my 5 passengers, doctors and nurses doing charity work in a free clinic there.

(rest of the ABC story, nothing about any changing of stories)

David Hartley was last seen Sept. 30 when Tiffany said he was shot by Mexican pirates while the couple rode Jet Skis on the Mexican side of Falcon Lake. In a heartwrenching 911 call, a seemingly panicked Tiffany Hartley explained to the dispatcher that David was shot in the head and she was not strong enough to pull his body onto her Jet Ski. Neither David’s body nor his Jet Ski have been recovered.

Tiffany Hartley spent much of the weekend packing up her South Texas home for a move to Colorado.

Search to Continue After Gruesome Beheading

Though the search has not yet started, last week Mexican authorities said they would press their search for the body of an American tourist even after the lead investigator was decapitated.

“I can’t even explain how my heart is just broken for him and his family. There aren’t any words,” Tiffany Hartley said last week of recently deceased Rolando Flores. “He was just such a nice guy, and he really wanted to do what he could for us.”

The widow said last week she gets search updates from Mexican authorities almost daily.

Zapata County, Texas Sheriff Sigifredo Gonzalez said he felt for Flores’ family.

“They’re going to now be without a father, without a husband when in fact all they were trying to do was search for the body of Mr. Hartley,” Gonzalez said last week.

Flores’ severed head was delivered Oct. 12 in a suitcase to a military post near the border with Texas. His wife had said he was working late on the Hartley case the night before and never came home.

Although many believe Flores’ murder was the work of the drug cartels who control the waters where Hartley was killed, Mexican authorities have denied his death had anything to do with the murder investigation.

Zeta Cartel Suspected in Decapitation of Top Investigator

Earlier last week, Mexican authorities named two suspects in Hartley’s murder, two Zeta drug cartel members known as Pedro Saldiva Farrias, 27, and his brother, Jose Manuel Saldiva Farrias, whose age was not given.

Juan Carlos Ballesteros, an investigator with the state prosecutor’s office of the Mexican state of Tamaulipas, said both were said to be suspected members of the Zeta drug cartel from Nueva Ciudad Guerrero, near the abandoned town where David and Tiffany Hartley were sightseeing before they were ambushed.

Zeta is known for smuggling billions of dollars of cocaine and other drugs into the U.S. every year.

I believe this woman. I think this whole thing is placing blame on her because the incident is so politically incorrect.

I may be wrong, but I just have the feeling she is a victim too.

"The wife of a man allegedly killed by pirates..."

Well, owing to the way the MSM is now coloring this story, and from many of the comments on this thread, I'd recommend the little widow now shaddup and lawyer up. Pronto. It didn't take long for the tide to turn, did it? She's now a major source of irritation to two countries, one deeply corrupt and venal police organization, and several outlaw gangs. Doesn't matter anymore who killed her husband. She'll have to go into hiding or soon be dead herself. If she goes to Mexico, she'll simply disappear. Problem solved for everybody. Better run, dear.

For all of those people questioning the wife, google or yahoo “Falcon Lake Pirates”. You will find a bunch of stories pre-dating this one. This is not new for this lake. Definite turf war involving the Zetas.
