Oh Puhleeeeeze. Jennifer Wilbanks has cut herself a deal. For money, an admission of guilt, and a well scripted apology, she has entered a guilty plea to the felony charge of lying to law enforcement.

And what about the media? Who holds them accountable for plastering Jennifer Wilbanks' buggy eyes all over the place for days? Who makes them apologize for their implications that the fiance had more to do with Wilbanks' disappearance than met the eye?  When is Geraldo going to apologize for dragging his sorry ass to Jennifer's hometown and going on a town tour that was carefully edited for all the folks glued to tv sets anxiously awaiting news of Jennifer's body showing up in some godforsaken place?

Jennifer Wilbanks may need psychiatric help. She obviously concocted a rather sexually explicit tale of what her phony abductors did to her. She may definitely be nominated for an Oscar for her performance on the phone with 911 in New Mexico. But Jennifer Wilbanks is NOT responsible for splashing her picture and her life story all over tv for days. Had anyone in the media bothered to do some background checking, they'd have discovered that Jennifer Wilbanks had been troubled for years, so despite what her family and fiance believed, she was capable of staging the whole debacle for nothing more than attention. Instead the media seized her disappearance to fill up time on cable news channels.  And it was the media who was most disappointed and had most of the egg all over their collective faces when a live, warm body showed up in New Mexico instead of a cold dead one.

There's a lesson to be learned here. If one is going to disappear then one had better have the good sense to show up dead because otherwise one could end up in a heap of trouble for cutting one's hair and taking a bus trip.

I'm disappointed because the only thing I wanted out of all this was to see what kind of chop job Jennifer Wilbanks did on her hair.
