Sounds like someone was looking for significance in her life and latched onto 9-11. I credit her for apparently avoiding financial fraud in the situation where so many others jumped in only for the money.
I wonder if she really did avoid financial fraud. It says that she spoke to audiences. Colleges pay guest speakers. She might not have cashed in on the federal victim's money because she couldn't give real employment verification, but she might have cashed in on other opportunities.
You have to wonder where her money does come from, though. Living in Manhattan is expensive.
LOL. She is an imposter. She certainly couldn't make any claims without being found out. ...she would not explain her reticence, saying only that she had not filed any claims with the federal Victim Compensation Fund.
She was probably receiving some expense money and enjoyed being a celebrity and travelling the world. People are gulible.
