The hacking collective known as Anonymous is trying to shine a light on the roots of the racial violence in a St. Louis suburb.
On Aug. 13, the group published hours of alleged police dispatch tapes from the day Ferguson, Mo., police shot and killed unarmed teen Michael Brown.
That same day, one of a handful of Twitter accounts claiming to be associated with the Anonymous group posted comments they say came from the wife of Ferguson Police Chief Tom Jackson.
Speaking of people in Ferguson, a woman identified as Catherine Nardi wrote: "They are feral and violent. They murder each other. They murder their unborn babies. They murder white people. They hate police officers and murder some of them, even black ones. They destroy neighbors and entire cities with garbage and drugs. They live their lives off the hard-earned tax dollars of other Americans. Yet somehow they are victims. What insanity is that?"
The comments have been retweeted more than 5,400 times.
But the person in the Facebook message, Catherine Nardi, is not the wife of the Ferguson police chief.
Nardi lives in St. Petersburg, Fla., not Missouri, according to public records. She is married to Henry Nardi, who is not the police chief of Ferguson. We reached out to Nardi via Facebook, but she did not respond. A woman answering a phone number associated with her hung up on a reporter.
According to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Jackson’s wife is named Patricia, not Catherine. We were unable to reach Jackson’s wife.
As for the specific words in the message, we did not find them on Nardi’s Facebook page or anywhere else.
Our ruling
A post from a group claiming that it is associated with Anonymous said that the wife of the Ferguson, Mo., police chief said African-Americans in Ferguson "are feral and violent," among other things.
The tweet references a Facebook post that is not from Jackson’s wife. The woman in the picture lives in Florida not Missouri.
We rate this claim Pants on Fire.
The tweet was by a woman in Fla. How did the executioner’s boss’ wife get into the narrative?
That said, where was the error in the tweet?
They are feral
Did you listen to the tapes that they released?
Feral:
Existing in a wild or untamed state.
Having returned to an untamed state from domestication.
Of or suggestive of a wild animal or savage.
Race baiters won’t care if it isn’t the correct woman - A woman said it and that is all that matters
thank you..
I do hope that Chief's family was planning to move anyway.
Some facts simply are not allowed to be put into the spoken or written form; not ever!
No, they're enablers who one day hope to be the handlers of the feral........You know, the libtard politicians whose careers depend on the votes of the feral......
Not since the horse died.
READ THE ARTICLE!!!
Yes, they are feral and violent, what’s the problem????? Oh wait. We’re supposed to pretend they’re not, right?

So the English may have said about the colonists.
Anonymous needs the STFU on all things. They add nothing of value.
Oh the colonists were anything like these animals??? laughing. You find all kinds here on FR.
Really?
You're Nostrodomus?
Jesus Christ?
Vladimir Putin?
The inventor of the Ouija Board?
Who blessed you with the infallibility to determine "truth?" Before anyone else can?
What?
Inciting violence doesn’t add value?
Don’t say that to the race baters Jackson and Sharpton
They make a good living off the stuff.
If accurate, this is a good piece of investigative journalism. Move them up past the NY Slimes and Wash. Compost, way up.
“... a handful of Twitter accounts claiming to be associated with the Anonymous group posted comments they say ...”
Is that you Holder, Sharpton, Jackson doing a little shuckin’ and jivin’ of the peoples of Ferguson?
