ASHLAND, Ore. (AP) -- A candidate for Southern Oregon University student body president has admitted she was lying when she claimed she had a cousin who was killed in the Virginia Tech shootings.
Brandi Freeman spoke at a candlelight vigil held by students at the university campus in Ashland last night.
With tears streaming down her face, she had claimed she had lost her cousin in the shootings that left 33 dead at Virginia Tech.
By today, Freeman admitted to making up the story to appeal to voters for the student body election next week. She also said she suffers from bipolar disorder.
Freeman is a dean's list student and a member of the student senate. But she said she'll likely drop out of the student body elections because of her actions.

Freeman admitted to making up the story to appeal to voters for the student body election next week. Any guesses which party she's affiliated with?

The cousin who is named after the first man to climb Everest was seared in her memory during her visit to cambodia while churches burned in Arkansas and her parents met because of Selma.
Kid’s got a great future with the DNC.

LOL - if she was a Republican, that would’ve been part of the headline!

Is this tragedy going to be like Woodstock where everyone was there and lost someone?

There was a time when this incident would have caused peers to run her off the campus in shame ... but now she claims to be bipolar and might drop out of the race????? {{{ shrugging in amazement }}}

The first clue was the Brandi with the i at the end, Im sure she dots the i with a little heart too. Unless she's a lesbian who was the victim of child abuse and molestation. There were no pix of her, but I sort of envision her as looking like Dan Rather's daughter.

But, but, but - she’s a victim, too?! Her peers will embrace her, and elect her overwhelmingly!

Google this chick’s name. She an all purpose lib, who also claims that both her parents are incarcerated, and she’s apparently on the “student for life” track in criminal justice.
I think she’s the love child of Joe Isuzu.

College students Brandi Freeman (left) and Jessica Lleras prepare to serve ramen noodles and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to legislators at the Capitol on March 28. Freeman and Lleras wanted to illustrate how the cost of higher education affects students' budgets for food.
To: Inspectorette
They can’t have it both ways.
People do suffer from bipolar disorder, my husband was disabled with it for many years. They have irrational responses to problems. One of the main functions of our family for many years was to caretake for him.
The point I am making is if you are so irrational to use bipolar as an excuse for things, then you are not rational enough to have any responsiblity in regular society.
One or the other.
