A Muslim college student is admitting that her claim about two Donald Trump supporters attacking and robbing her was fabricated.

The anti-Trump media was all to eager to run with her claims on Thursday:

A female student at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette was beaten, robbed and had her hijab ripped off by two men, one of them wearing a white “Trump” hat, police and university officials said. …

Around 11 a.m., a female UL-Lafayette student was walking down a residential street near campus when two white males jumped out of a gray four-door sedan and hit her with a metal object, knocking her to the ground, university police told the Advertiser. The men tore off the woman’s head wrap, took her wallet and hit her while she was down, police said. The woman reported one of the suspects was wearing a white hat that had “Trump” on it.

Authorities did not say whether the victim was Muslim, but a spokesperson for campus police described her head covering as a hijab, a garment worn by some Muslim women. Cpl. Karl Ratcliff of the Lafayette Police Department told the Advertiser that the attackers “were saying ugly stuff to her,” but did not elaborate, according to the Advertiser.

But as police investigated, the woman’s story fell apart hours later because it was, in fact, a lie.

“During the course of the investigation, the female complainant admitted that she fabricated the story about her physical attack as well as the removal of her hijab and wallet by two white males,” the Lafayette Police Department said in a news release quoted by The Advertiser.

The ACLU, which seized on the woman’s claims, didn’t back down even after she admitted they were a hoax.

“We don’t know the full story of what happened yesterday, and we don’t know what caused her to recant,” the ACLU said in a statement, according to the paper. “We stand by our call for all Louisianians to reject anti-Muslim bigotry. Our Muslim neighbors’ rights remain unchanged. We will continue to speak out against this harassment and bigotry, and call for equal protection under the law.”

There’s no word on whether the woman will be charged with filing a false police report or a hate crime for targeting (white) Donald Trump supporters.

Or whether the university will give her a safe space, Play-Doh and crayons because those mean ole police officers discovered she was a liar.
