I can't believe how she could fabricate the whole story. I can't imagine what she could have been thinking. She is putting not only herself but her entire family through a world of embarrassment. If her life was in turmoil before this incident she has only made it worse now. She obviously needs help and I think this was an obvious cry for attention. Her parents need to take a step back and come up with a way to productively help their child.

Who is Audrey?

It's her way of getting back at all the evil males who want to have sex with her....

The rest of the story will be sealed away in some mental health facility, and it might be years if ever before the public will find out what this was all about. Good bye Audrey.

One more time .............Who's Audrey? And what did she do? And why do all of you know everything about her?
Posted by Tiger on Apr. 02 2004,4:39 pm
Audrey Sieler. She is the student from the Madison WI who faked her abduction. Her home town is Rockford, MN.

How embarassing for her and her family it must be. To have your nervous breakdown played out via the media in front of millions of people! What on earth would posess someone to do something like that! She must have been UNBELIEVEABLY starved for attention to tie herself up and throw herself in a marsh! LOL hope she enjoys her 15 minutes of fame before her trip to the padded room!

Spidey, do you know who we are talking about now???
Posted by minnow on Apr. 02 2004,5:16 pm
This is America!You'd be surprised how these things play out. Somewhere out there is her soul mate who will find her now. When one's exposed to millions the possibilties are endless.
But it has to go all the way like hers did. Can you imagine if she wouldn't have made news!!! That'd be a real tragedy! LOL
Posted by Kitten on Apr. 02 2004,5:22 pm
Anyone know what she was studying in college? Psychology? Law? Broadcasting? Maybe it was a school project? LOL
Posted by minnow on Apr. 02 2004,5:49 pm
Oh...you mean to get out of it?OK...look, her boyfriend got called up was in Iraq. The recent attacks of Americans drove her over the edge. She was trying to divert attention to herself instead of our minds on the weapons of mass destruction.
He wasn't supposed to be in a war. He was just getting college paid for and they were going to start a family after college. George Bush's war changed all that...

I figured there was something amiss immediately. Go back and really think here. Audrey was caught on tape appearing very nervous and looking for "someone" or "something" as she turned her head from right to left. while peering out the door of her apartment building. She really believed there was something out there. Unfortunately, not everyone is grounded in reality. Many schizophrenics see or hear voices that are very real to them. She believes she really saw something. Think again, why would Audrey not take a coat and leave the door of her apartment wide open? I also, believe that the police need to look into the first incident that happened to her. She said that she was hit over the head from behind in January. Did she do that herself too?

Yes Tiger, thank you. I just got done reading about it. They had pictures of the perp that she had discribed too. Pretty sad if you ask me.Only time will tell once the shrinks get done with her to find out what was going on in her head.
They claim the search costed over $70,000.00. That seems pretty high to me, but I'm sure there's more involved in a search then I know about.
I wouldn't want to be her right now!

BS...it's not even a felony...Cannabis will get you 20 years, but she'll get probabtion.

Oh ya, as an addendum just for Minnow. You know don't you that schizophrenia can also be "drug induced", something for you to look forward to.

Did I mention that Pat Sommerall is waiting for a liver to save his life...12 years after quitting drinking...

These kind of false accusations happen a lot more than people realize. If she is found by a psychiatric examination to be mentally ill, than she should be in a facility until she is mentally stable, and have to pay restitution for the search. If the court ordered examination shows she knew what she did was wrong, she should be in jail! False accusations go unpunished too often, when someone finally says "I lied", its too late, the damage is done.

Remember Tawany Brawley? Black girl in New York, said to have been abducted and raped by 6 white police officers, found smeared with dog feces and racial epithets written on her body. Al Sharpton jumped on the case--said it was evidence of racial hatred in America, and became her "advisor". Sharpton charged Rudy Giuliani and the entire New York police force with "participation in organized crime and aiding and abetting the KKK". A grand jury found the incident to be a hoax, and I don't believe she received any punishment for perpetrating the hoax (though a $180,000 damage award was assessed against her-never paid)--and Sharpton refused to acknowledge or apologize ($87,000 in judgements were unpaid, except for $15,000 garnished from his salary, until a group of black activists paid them a couple of years ago).Despite bringing embarrassment to the usual string of liberal "activists" (Bill Cosby, Louis Farrakhan, Phil Donohue, Geraldo Rivera, Pete Seeger, the Washington Post, the New York Times) that denounced the racial overtones of the "abduction", Brawley never apologized to them, and I never saw an apology from those "celebs" for their actions, either.
Based on this treatment, I see a big future for the Wisconsin girl!

What do you know? You've even managed to turn this girls breakdown into partisan politics... 
Posted by Mamma on Apr. 04 2004,3:56 pm
"George Bush's war changed all that"....."Cannabis will get you 20 years, but she'll get probation".........oh let the smoke clear out.................and you have the nerve to say that Jim's facts were partisian....ha ha ha ha ha
Posted by minnow on Apr. 04 2004,4:21 pm
And I'm Republican...LOL
Posted by jimhanson on Apr. 04 2004,4:27 pm
Minnow--just trying to point out the similarities in the two cases, the facts only speak for themselves. If you think the players in the Brawley case acted appropriately, let's hear your FACTS, not spin or quips.You flash that "dough" in your avatar, but you are only a "kibitzer"--watching from the sidelines while others ante up. Put up or shut up--let's see your hand! No facts? Fold.

You never count your money when yer sitt'n at the table.And you don't play poker at the blackjack table.
Posted by jimhanson on Apr. 04 2004,5:29 pm
I'll take that as "no response"--or "unable to respond". Once again--let's see YOUR facts.
Posted by Truth on Apr. 04 2004,6:43 pm
LMFAOGood one Jim. You hit the nail on the head.
Posted by Tiger on Apr. 07 2004,1:39 pm
Did anyone see the woman on Good Morning America on Monday who also faked her own abduction back in the 1980's. She was a beauty queen, great student, involved in everything. She said she just needed to get away from everything. It started with her telling people she had been getting obscene phone calls and then she elaborated the story into an abduction. She said she really thought she could just go away for awhile and then come home and tell everyone the man let her go and she was fine and she would be able to jump back into her life. She did end up getting charged with filing false charges. She got something like 20 hours of community service and a $200 fine.

Agreed... but I hope she has a strong support system of friends AND family. She's going to have a lot to deal with sometime in the future. Poor kid. I hope she gets some good professional help.

And how can you be that insensitive, Kitten? As was stated earlier in the forum, there are some mental diseases that make people lose control of their actions and minds - or make them live in a highly altered reality. So while this may have been an attention-seeking trick, it could easily have been a mental illness that manifested itself in an unfortunate and humiliating way. We don't have the facts, so we may never know... I hope she's able to overcome this and get on with life without people continually whispering, "Hey, there's that Audrey girl..."

Mental illness? I don't think so. Her problem was that she was use to being little miss somebody in her small town H.S. popular, smart, cute, she had it all and then it was off to college and she was just another face in the crowd, now she is the little fish in the big pond, not much attention being payed to her, she was a nobody and she couldn't deal with that. There was her problem. this little girl should be taken to court and gave a good wake up call.
Posted by kid dyn-o-mite on Apr. 10 2004,8:54 pm
Ya, I guess some things don't change with time. Do you remember those from your own high school days. Were you one? 
Posted by shaker on Apr. 11 2004,9:39 am
Nope!
Posted by The Advocate on Apr. 11 2004,11:56 am
Shaker, you sound like you know Audrey personally, do you? And if you do not how do you know all this about her or is it just speculation?
