Elliott C. Back: Internet & Technology

Laura K. Pahl

Posted in Humour, Law by Elliott Back on March 30th, 2005.

Just to get to the top of the comments list, I’m sending this as a TB. Even though Laura’s last name has been removed from the actual posts in question, it’s still your permalink:

aweekofkindness.com/blog/archives/2005 /03 /laura_k_pahl_is .html

So, you’d probably better change that. Also, a single person linking Laura K Pahl (like that) to your post will associate her name in Google with the original post! The damage is irrevocable…

For those who don’t know…

Laura Pahl is a plagiarist who contacted a random stranger by IM because she found a keyword in his profile that suggested he might know *something* about the topic she needed to write a paper for. She contracted the paper to this stranger, who then exposed her online.

Update:

Someone points out this picture in the comments:

Possible Laura?

  1. Hey Elliott, we’re aware of the name still being in the permalink. We have a plan to address it, but we just need to wait for things to slow down a bit. But as an aside, Nate, and Laura are both fully aware that taking her name off really doesn’t change anything, it was just something nice he did for her after all she’s been through.

    I would like to me this Nate guy, I would really give him an education. Considering he’s probably a dead-beat, who OBVIOUSLY has nothing better to do with his pathetic, worthless life. He’s probably been a nobody all his life and here is his chance, right? Pathetic. And all of you who follow him, what is your excuse? Get a life and a job.

  3. What’s the point of that ad hominem? Shooo, trolls.

  4. Found Laura K. Pahl, an actual picture of her at lewis University!!!

    I’m just wondering if Laura K. Pahl is a REAL christian: you know, the kind who believes in truth and honesty and stuff? Not being a christian myself, I’ve always wanted to meet one. However, at the age of 58, I still have never met one! I meet people CLAIMING to be one, but, in the end, they all lie, cheat, steal, bear false witness, fornicate and ridicule their parents. So what is the point?
    Laura K. Pahl is just one of the crowd of hypocrites, but in her case, she’s just a H.I.T. (hypocrite in training) so let’s cut her some slack. As for her torturer, he simply expresses his disgust at her lying and cheating by lying and cheating, too. His response was immature and cruel and not at all justified. “He hit me first, teacher” isn’t an excuse. Her actions do NOT excuse or necessarily precipitate his actions. Neh?

    Oh, well, on to more ‘weighty’ stuff like Bush and his henchmen trying to fool their idiotic Republinazi “base” with obvious **** like the flag burning and anti *** marriage amendments. Nero, long ago, knew it: bread and circuses. The masses will not riot if you give them bread and circuses. Hitler, too, knew it: give your people a fake enemy: let’s blame the Jews — and they won’t notice how I’m stealing their freedom. Bush is such a piece of work that I’m sorry I spent any time thinking about poor old Laura K. Pahl and her amateurish plagiarisms.

  13. Kazandra says:

  14. carrie says:

  15. ashley says:

    im not sure if this really happened or not but im doing my research b4 i repost this but im scared as hell

  16. amaya says:

    yeh but snopes also showa the article it was based on and actually all of it could be true cause ghosts and all those other fairy tlae creatures are real i know i speak with all of them and im not in a mental hospital either

  17. Leah says:

    yea this isnt real because as u read in the IMs that are sent to the lil boy (younger brother) the YOUNGER sis was talkin to him about wut had happen adn then switchs to the older sis. they made that mistake by trying to have the older sis talking but incorrectly put younger sis. and besides that the older sis that hid in the closet wouldnt have time to write hers and her younger sisters name into the closet wall. ALSO how would she kno wut time it was if she was in the closet not only that she would already be dead..how can she kno her time of death? AND who is going to think of carving their name and time of death wen their about to be killed?? NOONE! and stupity? why would you hid in the closet knoing that the killer in the room? wouldnt you run OUT and find help? need i go on? GET MY POINT. its FAKE

    people post things like this to scare the idiots who believe them. :)

  18. Doretta says:

    These crazy story about these sisters is totally FALSE!!! NO two girls named Lisa And Sarah Smith were murdered in Plainfield Wis in 1993, nor were their parents a number of years later.
    The only TRUE horror story that come out of that town was that of ED GEIN, a local farmer who murdered two women, one in 1954 and the other in 1957. His fame came when the police found that he was mutilating the corpes of women in his barn, and making costumes out of them. If you want the truth go to http://www.snopes.com,

  19. Emily says:

    omg.you wont believe this.
    at first i didnt believe it but then i saw it on google and myspace.
    i thought it was just to scare me.
    but it wasnt so if you see this on myspace repost it or else…….

  20. sheila says:

    this is reall y freaky at first i was freaked out i thought it wasnt true but then on goggle i found this website and it lead to another and it had a picture of this lady and she killed 5 people that didnt send it.

  21. Baillie says:

    … My GOD people. Honestly.
    If I posted something about me being a dead girl with no eyes and false teeth, with no flesh coming to stab your eyes out with a pen because I can… You’d believe it!

    Or perhaps I should state it like this:
    I r yung gurl comming to stab out ur i’s cuz I can.

    Because you KNOW that some people type so well.
    It’s pathetic how people get scared so easily. Mainly these girls.
    It makes me sad to be a female.

    “Oh look a hippo!”
    “LYK OMG HOLD ME I R TEH SKURRED.”

  22. jou ling says:

    the story about the smith girls as a chain letter is not real however there was a similar incident and the murderer was ed gein

  23. darkzero says:

    this is fake cuz 1

    instant messenger was invented in 1997, not 1993

    2, if the boy was born 2 years after their deaths and lived in the room for 12 or thirteen yrs, it would be the year 2008, and this urban legend was made in 2005, now STFU OR GTFO MY INTERNETS

  24. darkzero says:

    and if you believed this, you are a ******, and you should know that the logic to this story is false and that you all fail, now celebrate by going to youfail.org

    honestly, you people are so gullible, i didnt repost it and i didnt die, morons, i bet if i say

    “oh my god, its the ghosts of the smitsh sisters”

    youd all be

    “oh noes, ets comyng tu keel my!!”

  25. dorcas says:

    no the story about the smith sisters is true and you should be scared cuz one day you might end up like them ….
