Leave it to the Communist News Network to help a con artist con their own viewers.
The progressive propagandists tried to pull at the heartstrings of their dwindling audience with an original story as well as a follow-up about Dasha Kelly and her three children. She had lost her job and they were facing eviction once the moratorium ended. It was an ideal story to help them show the side of the debate they wanted people to see.
The segments framed Kelly seated with her three little girls and followed her as she showed her barren home after having to pawn pretty much everything she owned. NowThis also picked up the story. Watch it while it’s still up, because there’s a reason they might take it down:

The GoFundMe CNN promoted was able to raise $230,000, well over the $2000 goal. But it’s frozen now because an inconvenient fact came to light. According to The Blaze:
CNN’s Nick Watt said that Shadia Hilo, the actual mother of the children, contacted the network and proved with birth certificates that she is, indeed, their mother. Hilo said she was very upset that someone else was pretending to be the mother of her children.
GoFundMe said they have frozen the funds in the account for Kelly and have contacted the donors to notify them about how to receive a refund. If there is money left over from refunding donors, that will partially go to Kelly and partially to the children.
The elite team of fact-checkers and Pulitzer Prize winning journalists at CNN couldn’t spot a GoFundMe con any more than they could sniff out a Jussie Smollett staged attack. How they keep their handful of viewers is one of life’s great mysteries.

CNN through the years.
1. Most viewed station. Airports helped
2. Became the Clinton Nonsense Network when they defended slick willy on everything.
3. Now the communist news network. Working hand in hand with the CPUSA which used to be known as the democrat party.

Isn’t that amazing? But would accepting the money be fraud? Or does she escape that charge because they’re offering refunds?

If you live in Massachusetts you should be familiar with Turtleboy, he's the one who originally had the real mom of the kids on his show. He also reported the gofundme account and called the Las Vegas police live on air to report fraud by this Dasha chick. The real mom is the one who needs the money. She has 7 kids and works two jobs, her ex is the guy who now dates/lives this attention whore who CNN made out to be destitute.
Episodes 383, 384 and Impromptu update are a must watch.
