Will the "tortured beauty", Auxiliadora Martinez be given Asylum in the US?

This is quite a woman! As the history above tells it: "...was beaten with sticks, shot at, nearly raped and almost murdered...attacked her with large rocks, sticks, mortars and sprays of gunfire.."

Has somebody been reading too many superhero comics...? DUH, she survived mortars and sprays of gunfire, and was ALMOST (but not quite) raped and murdered. And soon she will also be "not quite pregnant"...Well, ALMOST...

LOL. Good points randburg. I still haven't found any other sources or verification for this story, so if anyone here witnesses or hears of any super human feats by Auxiliadora Martinez please let us know.

'Tortured beauty' given U.S. asylum
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=94979

i took it upon myself to allow her to live with me. dragonfang will be given visitation rights. :O)

I'm still looking into this, so please be patient. Basically, I can find not a single mention of this that isn't on Martinez's webpage (http://auxiliadoramartinez.com/), World Net Daily, or that doesn't quote WND verbatim. I've come across a few sites with people asking whether the story is true, and two sites with what is purported to be a photocopy of her asylum stamp, but which appears doctored. The incident is also mentioned on a few far-right blogs such as Sean Hannity's, but they, too, heavily reference the WND stories. If any of you have seen independent mainstream media reports about this, please let me know...

(FWIW, I took her case number from her webpage and tried to run it through the USCIS online case status application, but the number supplied apparently isn't the same as her application receipt number.I've written to WND asking if they have that; I'll let you know what they say.)

AH...We are tortured by this beauty...AGAIN...

GIVE HER BACK, DRAGON...so we can settle this prediction, please?

Still looking for official word. WND hasn't returned any of my three emails, and the U.S. Embassy in Nicaragua is saying nothing about the case (http://www.elnuevodiario.com.ni/nacionales/45811). The bottom line: we're still waiting to see whether this story exists anywhere but in the digital pages of Worldnetdaily.com...

I notice that Hubdub is mentioned on http://worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=94979 !

sqlman - WND has a liberal filter on their email. :O)

NN. That's pretty funny that we got a mention in WND. Good find.

Yes, good catch, notable.

@dieseldog: "sqlman - WND has a liberal filter on their email. :O)"

I know that, which is why I instead used my ultra-super-duper-top-secret far-Right alias when writing... :-)

I wrote the author of the article, asking for further verification. (I also contacted the LA Asylum office, which doesn't give out this type of confidential information). Here's the response I got from the author:


Steven,

This was an exclusive to WND. When you see other people report on exclusives such as this, it is usually because they are ripping off our original report.

Here’s a prime example of that after my report, with no mention of WND.

I met with Martinez for more than four hours with translators in Camarillo, Calif., and reviewed a very thick asylum packet. It was a very emotional interview for her, and she only met with WND.

These are the stories that resulted from our interviews:

U.S. gives drop-dead treatment to tortured beauty
'Tortured beauty' flooded with marriage proposals
'Tortured beauty' given U.S. asylum
(links didn't come thru here)

You can contact the LA asylum office if you want more asylum documentation than the proof in the articles. Her case number is at the bottom. But you may not find it in many other places in the mainstream media because it was an effort entirely by WND.

While I understand that you simply want to be sure of the facts, you should understand that WND reports the truth. Just because other outlets haven’t scrambled to rip this one off without crediting us doesn’t mean it is any less factual.

Best regards,

Chelsea Schilling

i just called the number and its legit. normal office hours 7am to 4 pm. so if anybody wants their money they can call and ask if they'll confirm on deny the deal. tell them to join HD while you have them on the phone.:O)

@sqlman:

Since WND was the source for the question, what would be the problem with using it as the source for the answer?

Since the suspension date isn't until the end of the year, I don't believe it should have been settled yet. Though this may very well be the correct settlement, I don't think it has yet reached the threshold of virtual certainty. At the very least, should something come out that verifies one of the other choices before the settlement date, this settlement should be reversed.
