BOSTON - The woman whose 911 call led to the arrest of a Harvard scholar at his home and a national debate on racial profiling plans to speak publicly for the first time.

A lawyer for Lucia Whalen says Whalen plans a news conference Wednesday in Cambridge because she wants to get on with her life. The attorney says Whalen has been hounded "relentlessly" by the news media.

Talk about making a mountain out of a mole hill! I guess race baiters normally do that.

MSM set up to twist, lie, deceive and spin a sticky web of entrapment. Pravda is alive and well in the US of A.

Maybe President Barry should invite her to the White House for a beer. Sounds like she could use one.

At first I felt sorry for this lady but then I heard her lawyer on CNN saying negative things about Officer Crowley and when asked about Gates, the lawyer said “She heard he said nice things about her and thanked her for being a good neighbor”.

She might start bashing the police and Officer Crowley at her news conference.

This should be interesting. I heard her lawyer say last night that Whalen agrees that Gates should have been arrested. I think her exact word were that "it was appropriate".

She also can corroborate the fact that Gates was the only one yelling and that he was "very loud", and like I said that she(Whalen) thought it was so bad that she agrees with the arrest.

Crowley did make a mistake in his police report though that Whalen mentioned "two black men" when she didnt so she'll probably mention that as well.

Hahahaa.....he is a pimp, a race pimp. Now, the funny part, if he chooses to stay where he is at, he is a NICE target for a break-in. If he chooses to go else where, he is a NICE target for a break-in. He made his bed...Pilfer away as far as I am concerned.

Her lawyer is Wendy Murphy, who was one of the leaders on the airwaves leading the lynch mob against the Duke lacrosse players.

She never conceded that she was wrong or apologized for her conduct in that case, as far as I know.

Whalen works for Harvard magazine.

I’m wondering where is the older woman Whalen mentioned in the 911 call. She said that she probably wouldn’t have noticed anything if not for that woman, and that her call was because of the concerns of that woman.

I have to disagree with you on this....and the reason why, she was (the lawyer) was interviewed by Greta Van Strestan yesterday and she is said the complete opposite of what you said. The lawyer did say her client only heard Gates screaming and ranting like a baby. Perhaps though this lawyer is playing it both ways. On Fox, it was gates fault, and on CNN it is the cops? Not sure, but I didn’t see the interview on CNN.

There’s a lesson in this for all of us: when we see someone trying to force entry on our obama-like neighbor’s house, turn around and walk away. It’s not worth the hassle.

She was obviously a Republican plant, like Joe the Plumber. Anyone who exposes Obama for what he truly is, is to be denigrated and ridiculed by the press.
