LOL at Manti saying "her family would rather be left alone" and "her family would rather keep her pictures away from the media."


ETA: I find it incredibly hard to believe that he had no knowledge of this situation.



I'll take it one step further.. So he talked to "family" as well? aka other people tricking him. These other people told him they wanted to be left alone? I can't wait for this to blow up more than it has

criminal charges should be filed immediately, either against te'o or the person who is alleged to have defrauded him
What crime would have been committed by Te'o? Lying?

does the person who is alleged to have hoaxed him live in palo alto?
what does that have to do with anything? I have a google voice number in New Jersey, that doesn't mean I live there.

I'll freely admit I met my girlfriend online. But I'm not a star linebacker at notre dame. And I'd actually seen her face in person before we started dating.

after he met "her"?
I'm not sure either of these ever happened either. I think he lied about them to cover up the fact that he'd been punked.

all kinds of fraud

if he is lying, he's using lies in order to gain an advantage on others (you can argue his awards, publicity, etc are the advantage)

My gf calling me from different phone numbers every week definitely wouldn't be a tipoff something was up.


I was just referring to the ease of getting multiple phone numbers. But the more I think about it, Google Voice would be even easier.

But that seems civil to me. Did anyone lose money or receive damages?

I don't see how lying about a girlfriend is fraud.
