Pittsburgh Police did not take a photo of Ashley Todd????

[RamboLiberal]

A photo obtained by the Drudge Report website showed Todd after the alleged assault.

However, KDKA could not verify the authenticity of the photo.

Pittsburgh Police did not take a photo of the woman.

The McCain-Palin campaign released a statement that said, in part, they were shaken up by the incident – calling it sick and disgusting.

A spokesman confirmed both McCain and Palin called Todd to express their concern.

With the polygraph request reported - seems like the police don't believe her.

1. I just read on Kos that even Michelle Malkin doesn't believe her. That's saying something.

2. Maybe there weren't any injuries to photograph.

Then.

3. so then who took the photo? rick davis? n/t

4. Her so called "black eye"

is all wrong in both color and the total lack of swelling which occurs quite rapodly.

5. "we hope that the person who perpetrated this crime is swiftly apprehended"

the Obama camp stated ...

Sounds to me that the person perpetrating this was already held for questioning ...

8. Yeah but some spokeswoman said that there were discrepencies

in the polygraph. Thats shorthand for she failed.

7. So, what's Senile Old Man and Trollop going to say when this ruse is discovered?

They best thing they could have done would be to stay as far away from it and issue a statement, but these two shameless panderers decided they would throw themselves into the middle of the fray and go all-in for this obvious fake.

I said it before and I'll say it again, this is most clueless and inept campaign I have ever seen. We are witnessing the GOP death throes.

9. That is very odd police work not to take a victim photograph.

Those photos are always instrumental in a trial to show jurors what the injuries looked like, and help sway their decision.

Perhaps this woman refused?

Maybe the TV station doesn't have to correct information?

But I would be stunned if Pittsburgh PD did not intentionally photograph the alleged victim of a violent crime.

That is standard protocol as far as I know.
