#4 (Definitely) Fat (maybe) multi-racial (maybe) jewish girl. Steve Sailer has been having fun speculating that Haven Monahan is one of the Hawaiian shirt clad "typical white frat boys" from her original, since downplayed incident report.

#7 What Happened at Madison’s Protests(June 23-24)
Got too close to an Antifa / BLM molotov thrower? If it wasn't her.

#8 Likely she was the thrower. Evidence of lighter fluid on her shirt indicates that she prepped the cocktail.

#10 Heavy.com did a 5 Fast Facts on the young lady:

Bernstein as an EMT and is studying to be a firefighter and paramedic. She is studying at Madison College.

That essay says she was home-schooled, lived in the Madison area her entire life, liked to travel, and worked at a veterinarian clinic.

#11 Supposedly 4 white guys in Hawaiian shirts

Actually she reported two of the four guys wearing Hawaiian shirts (supposedly some dog-whistle for white supremacy), the other two were dressed in black.

Originally thought this might be some false-flag thing, but the more info (what little they release) leads me closer to what Beldar notes. The detectives would have found accelerant splashed somewhere in the vehicle if the event occurred as Ms. Bernstein described.

And the timelines are wrong.

#15 She is lucky to escape with only superficial burns. They could have turned her into a newt. A fat, juicy newt.

#16 /\ Picture her taking a selfie, phone in her right hand when the thrower on her left throws a molotov. *Splat* *Sizzle* The burning gasoline soaked rag hits her on the left side of the faceas it flies by.

#19 All together now, everybody sing and reel in a rollicking crew:

Althea through thick & thin: ALTHEA!

Althea, fire of my loins but never loin from le feu: ALTHEA!

Althea now, Althea later (alligator), Althea forever, ALTHEA!

#21 Simple: run the records on her smart phone to get the when and where. Want to bet it shows she was not where she claimed she was, when she claimed it to happen? On the flip side, if the place/time are confirmed, then they have a case to work.

#22 The police already grabbed tons of video footage of the entire area and found nobody even close to matching the description and no evidence of accelerant anywhere but her shirt, not in car, not on pants.

Enough of this bullshit and redirection.

#28 Won't happen tho. She's a "victim of white supremacy" and we need to feel sorry for her and send money to her dollar up page.

#29 Dunno about the molotov. If she'd been involved with that, John Nolan Drive would have been a faster way to get to ER. Maybe a little freebasing accident?

#30 Homesick for altheas now (though I always kinda looked down on 'em as yankee hibiscus... shame on me).

A shriek like an Eli's, then swearin',
When "Black" one-drop anarchist Karen
Goes "Mazel tov!", throws,
Blows her Instagram pose
As she grows those road-roses of Sharon.
