01:41 / 01:57 The 26-year-old woman who cops said was set on fire by a lunatic with a lengthy rap sheet on a Chicago L train earlier this month has been identified as Bethany MaGee.
“It is devastating that a career criminal with 72 PRIOR ARRESTS is now accused of attacking 26-year-old Bethany MaGee on Chicago’s L train, and setting her on fire,” US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said on social media Sunday.
“This would never have happened if this thug had been behind bars. Yet Chicago lets repeat offenders roam the streets,” Duffy said of suspect Lawrence Reed, 50, who is facing federal terrorism charges in connection with the senseless fire attack.

He then removed the cap from a bottle of liquid, pouring it all over her head and body. MaGee fled, but Reed caught up with her and set the bottle, which fell to the floor, on fire, but he allegedly retrieved it and used it to set her ablaze.

Supporting your point with documentation in my #39.
Buckwheat reincarnated.
I think that was in California! Obviously, it’s not being enforced.
No judge is that bad (or negligent) unless they are all backed by George Soros.
It is an attack on the Western Civilization because George Soros despise the West.

A Facebook poster said, "Imagine explaining this headline to the Founding Fathers."
Some people constantly think about nothing but crimes they can commit and get away with whatever they can.
I have known many over the years. All colors and all sexes. It is either a genetic thing or they are taught it by their parents and grandparents.
They are pure ‘ID’ as the psychologists call it. All their mental power is concentrated into feeding their ‘ID’.
Some just become politicians.............
The Ukrainian victim was pictured in her bedroom with a BLM poster in the background, but it turned out to be photoshopped. Are we sure this girl was for BLM? Even if she was, she didn’t deserve what happened to her.
Black Lives Matters.
She appeared to support it.
Now it’s 300 Strikes and your out!................Maybe............
I remember the three strikes law but I don’t know if it’s still on the books. I recall a guy with two strikes stealing a pizza, which was his third strike, and they threw him in jail. Liberals were screaming and howling that a man got jailed “just for stealing a pizza.” No...he got jailed for having two strikes and being too stupid to keep his nose clean after that.
In my #39 I post the Ms. MaGee photo from the UK Daily Mail. If that’s been faked, then the Mail has been duped and leaves it up today. That is unlikely.
Da Bears!
Governor Creosote is strangely quiet about this incident.

The “Black Lives Matter” signs work as well as the “SOUL BROTHER!” signs did to get your place from being torched in the 1967 riots.
More like Coolio.
I wish criminals would be forced to wear electronic badges that flash the number of crimes they’ve been caught and released. That way perhaps citizens can play a larger role in their rehabilitation.
