Ms. Todd told police during at least five hours of questioning last night that her attacker said to her, "You are going to be a Barack supporter." She told police the man then sat on her chest, pinning both her hands down with his knees and used what she believed was a dull knife with a roughly 5-inch blade to carve the B.

A friend said Ms. Todd went to an unknown hospital on her own around 1 a.m.

He said the description of the robber as a 6-foot 4-inch, 200-pound black man is similar to that of a man who robbed a Liberty Avenue bank in recent weeks.

If he "sat on her chest", how does the B become backwards? Malkin really starting to wonder.

”Police planned to administer a polygraph test to Ashley Todd, 20, because her statements about the attack conflict with evidence from the Citizens Bank ATM where she claims the incident occurred, police said”

This fact is bothersome.

God I hope she didn’t fake this. This would be very bad if she did.

Polygraph results not being released

Giving her time to fess up? Or did she pass?

It appears as more statements come out, that she is just a nutcase.

I knew a dyslexic woman who tried to commit suicide.

She jumped behind a bus.

Perhaps the picture was reversed?

And was the robber left-handed?

Doubtful. The best I can tell from her small photo on her blog the part on her hair would indicate that the initial photo released showing the "B" backwards is the correct photo. Unless of course BOTH photos are reversed. Some people have theorized that she have not be correcting for the flip of the photos from her PC.

He did exactly what Obama will do when he becomes President. 1. He will take your money away
2. He will engrave his mark on your forehead.
Otherwise, you will be called a racist. Time to get rid of this thugs and it is ticking out….

Don't know. I sure hope not. But if she did, she'll make bigger scars for the rest of her life than the "B" etched on her face.

If she was going to get the B backwards she should have tried for an “O”

The b is backward because the photo was reversed, I would guess.
