PITTSBURGH - A McCain campaign volunteer accused of making up a story about being robbed and assaulted in Pittsburgh by a man who disliked her McCain bumper sticker will enter a program for first-time offenders.
Under the deal announced in court today, 20-year-old Ashley Todd will be released from jail and required to undergo mental health treatment. Her record eventually will be expunged as long as she goes to treatment, stays out of trouble and keeps authorities apprised of her whereabouts.
Todd, of College Station, Texas, has been jailed since Oct. 24, when police say she admitted making up a story about being robbed near a Pittsburgh bank and then assaulted a man who scraped a backward letter "B” into her cheek.
Todd, who was charged with making a false police report, did not have to enter a plea.
Police say Todd couldn’t explain why she invented the story.

We spent 17 pages discussing this woman and that's ALL she gets wow! I can see something like this happening again.

McCain worker who concocted story to be released
Thursday, October 30, 2008
By Sadie Gurman, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
A McCain campaign volunteer who created a one-day national sensation when she concocted a story of a politically motivated assault is to be released from jail today and is headed for a probation program.
Ashley Todd of College Station, Texas, waived her right to today's preliminary hearing in Municipal Court.
Officials announced that the jail's behavior clinic had cleared her for release and found her competent to stand trial.
But a trial won't be necessary if she successfully completes terms outlined today.
She will be released to an uncle in New York State and must provide proof every two weeks that she is receiving counseling. Eventually she is to return to her mother's home in Texas.
Ms. Todd is to enter the county's Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition program, which allows non-violent, first-time offenders to have their records expunged if they successfully complete the terms of their probation.
Ms. Todd has admitted she made up a story of a black robber who attacked her in Bloomfield after he spotted McCain stickers on her car. She said he carved the letter B on her cheek with a knife.

Today, the B was no longer apparent on her face.

I personally would have liked to see her have to serve some service in the black community.
