Two weeks ago, the media breathlessly reported the story of Althea Bernstein, who claimed she was set on fire by four white men as she sat in her car at an intersection at 1 AM. She says they somehow shot lighter fluid into her car and then tossed a lighter.
The story is extremely bizarre. This roving band of racists was wandering around the city in the middle of the night with a spray bottle full of lighter fluid? And there are no other reported attacks by this terrifying gang? Nobody else witnessed them?
And they were able to spray the lighter fluid and then follow it up with a lighter without her driving away or rolling up her window? And is this what your injuries would look like after literally having your face set on fire?
If this happened, it should be easy to prove. She should still have the lighter with their prints. And there should be some noticeable fire damage in her car. And given that this happened supposedly at an intersection in a city, there should be all kinds of surveillance footage.
Yet we've heard nothing about this case for two weeks. No video has been released. No witnesses have come forward. No one else had any encounter with the murderous, flame-wielding white supremacist gang. They have apparently vanished. It's almost like they never existed.
