Springfield Woman at Center of Cat Eating Rumor Apologizes for the 'Chaos'

Raw Story is out with an expose of the Springfield, Ohio woman who has now come forth to apologize for all the ‘chaos’ caused by her posting of a random rumor on Facebook, based on a report from NBC:

According to the report, Erika Lee, a resident of Springfield, posted to Facebook commenting on a neighbor's cat who had gone missing — and mentioned that the neighbor had been suspicious the cat might have been attacked by Haitians who lived in the neighborhood.

As just about anyone who has dealt with an indoor-outdoor feline knows, cats can go ‘missing’ for any number of reasons that seldom (if ever) involve ending up in someone’s stewpot.  Erika was apparently just passing along the idle (or malicious?) speculation of her neighbor as to what had happened to their cat, which immediately got scooped up by the usual internet trolls to try and slander the local Haitian community:

Lee, for her part, feels terrible that her post exploded into a xenophobic panic against the Haitian community, and for the confusion and fear the post caused.

“It just exploded into something I didn’t mean to happen,” she told NBC News.

Trump, meanwhile, has not offered any apology or retraction for his claims about the Haitian migrants in Springfield, who are in the United States legally and filling vital jobs in a Midwest factory town that for years had been in decline.

Il Douche of course has never apologized for anything in his whole sorry excuse for a life, and I doubt he’ll start here — regardless of how often this baseless bs is debunked.
