A University of Wyoming student targeted by an anonymous Facebook posting that included a threat of sexual violence had posted the item herself, police said.
The university in Laramie, Wyoming announced on Tuesday that campus police cited Meg Lanker-Simons for misdemeanor interference with a police investigation by giving false statements.
The posting that threatened Lanker-Simons occurred on a Facebook forum for UW students, leading to an outcry and an investigation by UW police because it was directed at a student.
The Facebook page, which is not officially affiliated with the university, was taken down and a student-led demonstration against sexual violence was held.
UW police say they found what they called 'substantial evidence' verifying that the post came from the computer belonging to Lanker-Simons.
Lanker-Simons is a blogger and local radio show host who advocates for liberal causes.
In 2010, she filed a lawsuit against the university that forced UW to allow 1960s radical Bill Ayers on the campus for a speech on education.
Ayers co-founded the Weather Underground, an anti-war group from the Vietnam Era that claimed to be responsible for a series of bombings, including nonfatal explosions at the Pentagon and U.S. Capitol.
The Facebook post came to light last week when people including Pamela Kandt, co-convener of the Episcopal Women's Caucus and a Casper activist, complained to the university and demanded action.
Besides the threat of sexual assault, the posting was written to make it appear as if its author was a conservative Republican.
Kandt came to Lanker-Simons' defense Tuesday.
'I will tell you, I believe Meg is innocent of this outrage,' Kandt told the Laramie Boomerang, adding she believes the citation issued by police is a 'classic case of blaming the victim.'
'I mean, my God, who would do this to herself?' she added.

What is so hilarious is the phoney posting calls her “hot!!!”. That’s a tell right there, that it’s not real.
Did she post that on April Fool’s Day?
“Who would want to rape that fat, ugly, midget of a liberal toad?”
Hillary. And Huma Abedin.
Oh I didn’t forget them - - I still haven’t forgotten the Tawana Brawley hoax, either. Or about 50 other liberal “hate crime” hoaxes.
Like I posted, “Here is just a small sample:”
.
I will stand by my fellow Freeper Laz and say...NO!
(Primarily because she is a brain dead Liberal)
Surprise surprise..a liberal loon does something, blames it on a Conservative, and it turns out she did it to herself..not surprising..these whack jobs on the left try this stunt over and over again and fail every time
YIKES that is one fat, ugly piece of crap..figures she’d be on the left..she makes Hillary Clinton look decent
Hahahaha...I looked at that picture above, and on my first glance at her name I thought it was “Leg Wanker”
The commie libs are always pulling this “I was threatened” crap. It’s getting pretty old. Attention hos.
OMG!!
The spawn of Andrea Dworkin LIVES!!!
‘I mean, my God, who would do this to herself? ‘
I mean, my God, where has Pamela Kandt been for the past decade or so as several attention-seeking leftist jerks from coast to coast have pulled these sorts of outrages against themselves?
Yeah, they sure do get away with a lot, don’t they?
If it were conservatives making shit up it would be a whole different story. The media would make sure everyone from 2 to 90 knew all about the hoaxes and the political motives.
I’m gettin’ really tired of this crap.
ou mean “unlikely that he WOULD be . . .”, right?
*****************************************************
correctomundo—I hate those double negatives that flying fingers sometimes throw forth.
You want to try and rephrase that?
Literally NOTHING makes Hillary Clinton look decent.
NOTHING!
Fake but accurate according to liberals. The end (sympathy, attention) justifies the means. Don’t they get that if they cannot find real incidents, its because those incidents don’t exist anywhere but their own prejudiced, stereotyping heads?
the question is not who would rape her - she has a husband? who would marry her?
