Wahl said he doubted it would pursue charges against Bernstein either. Wahl said there is a difference between actively trying to deceive law enforcement and law enforcement not being able to corroborate a report of a crime

Bernstein told police that she was driving her brother's 2007 Hyundai Elantra through the Downtown following a date when she stopped at a stoplight, possibly on West Gorham Street at State Street, at around 1 a.m. June 24 and was approached by four white men, one of whom yelled a racial epithet. One of the men sprayed her with lighter fluid through her open driver's-side window and then threw a lit lighter or match at her, she said, setting her face and neck on fire before she patted out the flames.

A surveillance camera at Gorham and State captured images of the Elantra at 12:44 a.m., for example, but nothing to substantiate the alleged attack. Police also did not find any fire damage in the 2007 Hyundai Elantra she had been driving, according to police reports, and a dog trained to sniff out accelerants did not find evidence of them of in the car.

Dear dipshit police: When someone says they were set on fire inside their car and the car is not burned in any way, that's actively trying to deceive.

How much money was wasted on this? At least charge her for that because she made enough off her gofundme

Bernstein's family said in a statement that it appreciated "the detailed investigative efforts by all involved in this case," asked for privacy and said it would not be granting interviews.

OH ! NOW YOU SHIT STAINS WANT PRIVACY ! Fuck off ! you miserable cunts ran to the press for the sweet sweet attention, and now that you've be CAUGHT you just want to be able to slither back under the fugly rock you all came from.

In a just world, you'd all get reamed by the long arm of the law.

Police don't prosecute. You are confused.

They refer charges to the DA to be precise

Also you cannot just pat out a fire like that with lighter fluid. You will be splashing that shit everywhere. I watched my cousin roll around on fire when he fucked up burning an ant hill. He did not suffer any burns but his jacket melted. It was fairly small fire until he tried patting his legs out which led to him being a human torch before he jumped on the ground and we kicked dirt over him putting the fire out.
