A New Jersey woman has been charged with conspiracy and making false statements after she faked being the victim of a brutal attack, by zip-tying herself, paying an artist to scar her face and body with cuts and writing “TRUMP WHORE” on her stomach in a fabricated plot, the acting U.S. attorney for New Jersey said Wednesday.

Natalie Greene, 26, a former staff member for U.S. Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ), allegedly told a concocted story to FBI agents, saying she was attacked on July 23 around 10 p.m. by three men who called her names while she was walking with a friend on a nature trail in Egg Harbor Township . Two of the men restrained her on the ground, she said, binding her ankles together with zip ties as they struck her in the head and cut her with a sharp object all over her body.
