Who doesn’t love a good story?

That’s what keeps people coming back to this one time and time again.

It has a little something for everyone in it.

Something shiny and new. Promises of hope during a crisis. A heroine come to save the day. The mob. The media. Investigations. Murder. Mystery. The Police. Theft. Fraud. Then the big reveal just in time for the circus to begin.

But wait, there’s more…

Sometimes it seems like this will never end. It’s finally time to stop playing fast and loose with the facts of this confidence game. To stop holding back all the relevant information like HBO’s “The Lady and the Dale” documentary has recently done. In her February 14, 2021 Entertainment Weekly interview, “The Lady and the Dale” co-director Zachary Drucker is reported as saying: “we crafted this series to provoke questions and to provoke critical thought. We want people to have that question. Was the Dale Liz’s shot at redemption? Was this her trying to be legit and to have a legitimate enterprise?”

No, no, and oh yeah, no.

But of course she knows all that already because she’s seen the FBI files, court documents, has interviewed people involved at the time, spoken to engineers, seen the car in person, and read the enormous amount of newspaper and magazine articles that were written at the time, which are available for anyone to find.

Never mind the facts. They just get in the way of the story.

I’ll be damned if I sit back and do nothing while opportunistic people put together an animated cartoon show and turn a con artist into a heroine 46 years after she selfishly destroyed the lives of everyone around her.

Enough is enough.
