Except they aren't.
The Arizona Guardian checked with all the county coroners--every damned one-- and they say they haven't dealt with any bodies connected with a crime that have been beheaded. They have found skulls out in the Arizona desert but they aren't examples of beheading, just body parts scattered by scavengers after people die in the desert.
Governor Brewer's spokesman's reply? "She never said anyone was being beheaded in ARIZONA!"
Sure she did. Wanna see? Here's exactly what Brewer said:
"Our law enforcement agencies have found bodies in the desert, either buried or just lying out there, that have been beheaded." - Governor Jan Brewer, June 20, 2010 Sunday Square-Off.
That was her standing by the claim, which meant she'd made it once before somewhere.
'Our?' What is this 'our' shit? Is there another Arizona I don't know about? Or does she think we're just stupid?
With thanks to the Arizona Guardian, 12 News and TPM Muckraker.
