Meet Erika Lee. According to NBC News, she's the xenophobic attention-seeking fabulist who first spread the racist rumor that Haitian immigrants were eating cats and dogs -- which was obviously untrue. And she actually insists that she's not racist and thus not responsible for this disinfo that has perpetuated all manner of hate. Honestly, she's not all that different from someone reporting a "suspicious Jew" to the SS. Make her famous.

@socprof She should be charged with incitement to violence. What exactly did #ErikaLee think her ignorant vile racist comment would trigger? Love? Laughter?

You don’t get to fucking say “oopsies” when your racist lie causes this kind of vitriol against an innocent community and leads to terrorist bomb threats

'It just exploded': Springfield woman claims she never meant to spark false rumors about Haitians

The woman behind an early Facebook post about Haitian immigrants eating local pets that helped thrust a small Ohio city into the national spotlight says she had no first-hand knowledge of any such incident and is now filled with regret and fear as a result of the ensuing fallout.
