'It just exploded': Springfield woman claims she never meant to spark false rumors about Haitians
SPRINGFIELD, Ohio — The woman behind an early Facebook post spreading a harmful and baseless claim about Haitian immigrants eating local pets that helped thrust a small Ohio city into the national spotlight says she had no firsthand knowledge of any such incident and is now filled with regret and fear as a result of the ensuing fallout.
“It just exploded into something I didn’t mean to happen,” Erika Lee, a Springfield resident, told NBC News on Friday.
Lee recently posted on Facebook about a neighbor’s cat that went missing, adding that the neighbor told Lee she thought the cat was the victim of an attack by her Haitian neighbors.
Trump (a person running to be president of our country) who is always saying that the media and the Democrats are spreading FAKE NEWS and because of that, they shouldn't be in power, has just proven himself to be guilty of "spreading FAKE NEWS"
It this hypocrisy, stupidity, or an incompetent scam artist?
