Yeah…they really kind of went out on a very thin limb here. They better hope they've got their facts straight because they went pretty in depth.

There was no Lennay Kekua. Lennay Kekua did not meet Manti Te'o after the Stanford game in 2009. Lennay Kekua did not attend Stanford. Lennay Kekua never visited Manti Te'o in Hawaii. Lennay Kekua was not in a car accident. Lennay Kekua did not talk to Manti Te'o every night on the telephone. She was not diagnosed with cancer, did not spend time in the hospital, did not engage in a lengthy battle with leukemia. She never had a bone marrow transplant. She was not released from the hospital on Sept. 10, nor did Brian Te'o congratulate her for this over the telephone. She did not insist that Manti Te'o play in the Michigan State or Michigan games, and did not request he send white flowers to her funeral. Her favorite color was not white. Her brother, Koa, did not inform Manti Te'o that she was dead. Koa did not exist. Her funeral did not take place in Carson, Calif., and her casket was not closed at 9 a.m. exactly. She was not laid to rest.
Lennay Kekua's last words to Manti Te'o were not "I love you."
A friend of Ronaiah Tuiasosopo told us he was "80 percent sure" that Manti Te'o was "in on it," and that the two perpetrated Lennay Kekua's death with publicity in mind. According to the friend, there were numerous photos of Ronaiah Tuiasosopo and Te'o together on Tuiasosopo's now-deleted Instagram account.
The sheer quantity of falsehoods about Manti's relationship with Lennay makes that friend, and another relative of Ronaiah's, believe Te'o had to know the truth. Mostly, though, the friend simply couldn't believe that Te'o would be stupid enough—or Ronaiah Tuiasosopo clever enough—to sustain the relationship for nearly a year.
Hard to read the whole article and believe he was conned. Looks like he was a willing participate in the fraud.

ND fans are saying apparently it wasn't even his GF when it first came out....just a close friend.

That deadspin article is gutsy & bold.

Erm, that's because she was registered under her real name, Lennay Marie Wochinski. Lennay Marie Kekua was her professional name.
Just read the entire article. Looks like Mant'i and Tuiasisopo just made the whole thing up for fun/publicity. Never thought they would get caught.
Deadspin story is very in depth. Do believe.

So at the very least, even if there's a name mixup and this person did exist, it sounds like she wasn't exactly his girlfriend? Seems like Thamel should be under the gun as well.

I admit I google searched that girl's name I just wanted to know more about the story. There wasn't even a facebook page for her sickness for well wishes.
Anyone that gets the flu or an upset tummy has a get well soon facebook page. I thought it was weird, looks like deadspin did too.
