Sounds like Ol' Sparky needs to be plugged back in for one last go-round.
Two points...
- Her boyfriend is a complete idiot for dating an established nutcase who will throw you in jail because she doesn't like the way you smile at her.
That is the stupidest charge, ever.Police charged Mangum with identity theft because she gave them a fake name, "Marella Mangum," and age, authorities said.
Q "Why do you like Duke, you didn't even go there." A "Because my art school didn't have a basketball team."
What an awful situation for those kids.
It is to hard to believe that she walked away from that situation, lying to the police and putting the players, community, and the school through hell with absolutely no repercussions except having to write a book!! Maybe this time, unless prosecutors again say "Well she has some issues"
This is a sketchy article, and the 6-8 felony charges seem a bit overblown.
What is odd though is that she threatened to kill her boyfriend and then set his clothes on fire in the bathtub after the police were inside the house.

No it's not. If there is a person with that name (like a relative), then giving that name to police means that person would have to deal with their name dragged through the mud at the minimum. a.k.a., when someone steals your identity you have to deal with that. It's a completely legit charge.
Why does she still have custody of those poor children?
Let's not rehash the LAX debacle. It's been beaten to death and beyond.

part of me hopes it is a false accusation...
Gosh! This is such a surprise! I'm flabbergasted with disbelief! I may have to lay down and collect my senses a while.
And one of her kids made the 911 call? What a bum she is.
Throw the book at her. Finally.

Somehow, I suspect that Nancy Grace won't mention this. Ever.
I just hope the children get turned over to the grandparents.
All I can say is that we should not be so quick to convict somebody based on some sketchy media accounts ...
At least that was the lesson I took from the lax hoax.
Let the system play itself out, THEN we can all jump on this fruitcake.
