So let's see.... she got in the cab at the hotel, then told the cab to drive her BACK to the hotel, then made up an elaborate story and called the cops, all to avoid paying a fare for getting a ride to the same place she started out from?


Wow. Nice sleuthin', dude! That makes WAY more sense than the assertion that an NYC cab driver might have been a bad driver who made anti-Semitic comments.


Oh, and by the way, here's the working link. It was constructed badly, that's why it didn't work, but the story is actually there.

http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/exclusive-cab-driver-yelled-death-jews-suit-article-1.2126948#bmb=1

And here's how the link was on the site from the OP, which you can see why it wouldn't work:

I suppose that fuckup was "part of the conspiracy", too. FIENDSSSSSS!!!
