Did the media get punked again (on internet search tip off)?

39. Aww come on...

...If the cops decided to ask me (or you) some questions about...whatever, they would send ONE guy in a clearly marked vehicle (truck where I live.)

Twitter is an extremely malleable platform. Shit happens in real time on Twitter. She (Michelle Catalano) blogged her experience in real time to her Twitter followers, as she was experiencing it. As the details changed, she updated her posts. She told what she 'knew' to be the truth at the time. The cops didn't admit to WHY they were investigating the family's google search histories until this story blew up on the internet. The family had been led to believe that the searches in question were made on their home computers.

The fact that it turns out to be her husband's recently fired-from company that made the 'he might be a terra'rist' google-search-history claim to the authorities is more than a little creepy. That particular search history on her husband's work computer was more than likely from April of this year; smack in the middle of the Boston Bombing tragedy. Every computer in the universe (mine included) more than likely held that same set of search-history parameters during April of 2013.


So, what did she 'lie' about?

Investigation based on google search history?.... Check. Not a lie.
Three black SUVs?... Check. Not a lie.
Six official detective guys in leisure attire?... Check. Not a lie.
Search of home, based on google search history?... Check. Not a lie.


As it turns out:

No mention by the cops of the actual (employer instigated) purpose for the visit?... Check. The cops weren't forthright.

“Six agents from the joint terrorism task force”?... To be determined...

Six "detectives" in black SUVs employed by the local police department?... So they say.

Former employer being a complete and total shit stirring douchebag?... Check. Confirmed.
