Wendy's Finger Finder Arrested

Friday, April 22, 2005

SAN FRANCISCO — The woman who claimed she found a well-manicured finger in her bowl of Wendy's (search) chili last month was arrested at her home Thursday night, police said.

Police in San Jose, Calif. — the site of the Wendy's in question — announced the arrest of Anna Ayala in Las Vegas (search). Police spokesman Enrique Garcia (search) said authorities would not give any details until a news conference Friday.

Ayala's 18-year-old son, Guadalupe Reyes (search), said he had gone to the store around 9 p.m. when he got a phone call from a friend who was back at the house.

"We rushed back and she was already gone," Reyes said.

Reyes said he had no other details and was waiting to hear from his mother.

The arrest is the latest twist in the bizarre case about how the 11/2-inch finger tip ended up in a bowl of fast-food chili.

The lesson for everyone in the industry is to settle quietly, pay them off and keep the publicity to a minimum.

You can't be series!!!

"Claw caper culprit caught 'cause culprit couldn't convince cops."

Was the cop Claude Cooper originally from Cleveland?

The pathetic thing is this woman has cost Wendy's hundreds of Millions of dollars in business.

...And concurrently she will pay for that with many years of her life incarcerated.
