Idiot of the week: Ex-GOP aide paid to be mutilated and branded 'Trump whore' in hoax attack, say police [View all]
A former congressional aide has been charged with lying to police after claiming she was bound, mutilated and branded with the words “Trump whore” by armed attackers in an ambush.
Natalie Greene, 26, was arraigned in federal court this week on charges alleging she staged an elaborate political hoax at the Egg Harbour Nature Reserve in New Jersey.
Police responding to a 911 call on July 23 arrived to find Greene — a law student at Rutgers University who had previously worked for the New Jersey congressman Jeff Van Drew — screaming and crying on a trail, her arms and legs bound by zip ties. Her shirt was pulled over her head displaying the words “Trump Whore” on her stomach and “Van Drew is a racist” on her back.
Prosecutors said Greene had claimed three gunmen had approached her and a friend and threatened to shoot her. She allegedly claimed they restrained her with zip ties, slashing her face and body before writing the messages on her body.
