‘Chili Finger’ woman
‘Chili Finger’ woman who planted a severed digit in Wendy’s meal is now ‘lying to police’ about her son’s shooting
Ayala
The woman who was jailed for planting a severed human finger in a bowl of chili in an attempt to extort money from Wendy’s has been accused of lying again.
Authorities alleged that infamous ‘chili finger lady’, Anna Ayala, 47, invented detailed reports of two men who ‘shot’ her 26-year-old son outside their home in San Jose, California.
Officers believe that Guadalupe ‘Junior’ Reyes, who has a previous burglary conviction and is not allowed to own a gun, shot himself, and his mother backed up the false story.
After the pair got their tales mixed up, police arrested them both on Thursday.
They face up to four years in prison if convicted.
Ayala is accused of being an accessory to a felony and filing a false police report, while Reyes faces charges related to being felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition.

The mother, who has a long history of filing lawsuits, was released from prison after serving four years for the gruesome Wendy’s chili finger case in 2005.
The bizarre scam gathered worldwide attention after Ayala dropped the 1 1/2 inch section of ring finger in her bowl of fast-food chili.
Bizarre hoax: Anna Ayala and her husband, Jaime Plascencia, were jailed in 2005 after cooking up a scheme to plant a severed finger in a bowl of Wendy’s chili to extort money from the fast food chain

It was revealed Ayala’s husband, Jaime Plascencia, had bought the digit for $100 from a co-worker who lost it in an accident. He then took it home where Ayala cooked it before depositing it in her meal on March 24, 2005.
Wendy’s claimed they lost $21 million in business because of the bogus allegations.

Is that supposed to be her glam shot, or did they exhume Liz Taylor?

She could get a job working for Obama – he’s always looking for a ‘wise’, devious latina.

You notice how a vast majority of criminals, rapists, thugs, murderers, knock out game aficionados, welfare queens, et al, have a plethora of last names in their ‘family unit’?
But don’t tell them that a single woman can’t raise children as well as a traditional family.

See if they only had strict guns laws in CA, Jr. would have never had an illegal gun to shoot himself.//

I wondered what Stockard Channing has been up to.

You know you’re a criminal when you have a source that can supply a severed digit when you need one.

Someone ought to slip a chilly finger inside Anna Ayala’s love tunnel and rotate it counter-clockwise; might settle her down a little
I might be up to the task, but I’d have to draw the line at the ol’ love tool lest it go off accidentally inside Anna and cause her to replicate her morally retarded self one more time. And then we’d have yet another little thug to deal with
