GREAT! Now a lady gets bitten by a cobra in a shopping center parking lot!

I wonder what the law is for owning a cobra there. I am having a hard time buying this. I think this was her animal and she got bit. However a stick that looked like a monocled cobra would be a pretty cool stick!:rofl:

Hots are illegal to own in Maryland. I heard something on the radio that she was being charged today. Charged with what, I don't know. But most people from the very beginning realized the story was BS. I would assume she was charged with a DNR violation. I'll check to see if I can find anything more specific.

What was she doing picking up "The stick" for? :rolleyes: How does a stick look like a cobra :rofl:

Than all of a sudden she bags it with no worries of getting bitten again or even worried about wasting time til the venom kicks in to action :confused:

Just like the other people said she's probably trying to sue, dumb lady :irkd:

Heh,

I was just thinking about this today and wondering whether they'd exposed the real story yet or not. Please keep us posted.

I just searched the net for any local news about this and came up empty. I do know I heard something about it on the radio today, but I can't find anything on the news webpages. Maybe the 11 oclock news will say something aobut it.

Just as I thought. The DNR are charging her. Here's the article.

BALTIMORE -- Police with the Department of Natural Resources have charged a woman with possession of a venomous snake after she recently claimed she was bitten by one.

Last month, 58-year-old Betsy Nighthorse claimed she was bitten by a cobra that she discovered in a White Marsh parking lot.

Police investigating her claim found another snake -- a Neo Tropical Rattlesnake -- at her home in Hydes. The snake was about 4 feet long and 4 inches in diameter.

The rattlesnake was taken to the Catoctin Mountain Zoo in Thurmont, as was the cobra.

Nighthorse is due in court in April. She could get a $1,000 for each count.

I don't know the lady. Not associated with anyone that I know. She may be a Native American Indian, judging by her last name.

I really thought it would have been a known hots owner that lives in the same general area. Oh well, she's getting off really easy if she's only being charged by the DNR.
