An East Texas woman who attempted to create bruises and blood on her face, then posted photos on social media to back up a claim she had been beaten by three black men is not getting the sympathetic response she aimed for.

Ashley Carey Martin is the person behind the ridiculously painted black eyes. Her social media accounts have since been deleted, but not before other users had time to screenshot her photos and account of the alleged attacks.

In a Facebook post, Martin said she had “Just got jumped by 3 African Americans ourside [sic] of the as [sic] Walmart.” She said the three men fled the scene in a truck with Arkansas-issued license plates after they assaulted her in the store when she asked them to refrain from cussing in front of her young daughter.

“What has the world come to,” Martin said in the post and added she was “feeling emotional.”

The accusation came days after nine people were killed in a mass shooting at a historic black church in Charleston, South Carolina.

People on social media are not buying Martin’s injuries. She has been ridiculed for rubbing what looks to be black eyeshadow around her eyes and blood near the tip of her nose.

The Daily Dot contacted the Walmart where the attack allegedly happened, where they spoke to a member of security who said there had been no reported incidents within the week.

The Texarkana Police Department also commented on the situation in an email to The Daily Dot with a similar response.

The department’s public information officer told the website reports from the weekend had been reviewed but one for Martin’s alleged incident was not found.

“We are confident is [sic] stating that this incident, if it did occur, has not been reported to this department,” the spokesman told The Daily Dot.

Being called-out on her unconvincing special effects makeup seemed to fuel Martin instead of stopping her online tirade.

The Daily Dot was able to obtain a photo from Martin’s Instagram account before it was deleted.

She posed for the photo with sunglasses on (presumably to hide her “2 black eyes”), tissue stuffed in her nostrils, because her “nose is still bleeding” while shooting her middle finger toward the camera.

"Here is your police report. Sorry I got jumped by three African American young men,” Martin captioned the photo, according to The Daily Dot. “I have 2 black eyes and nose still is bleeding, and somehow I am in the wrong. Enough for people to say it was makeup, how embarassing (sic) and very rude quite frankly. I don't want you pitty (sic) attention anything. I'm just warning there are dangerous people in Texarkana be careful. They did this to me for no reason in front of my 3 year old. At Texas side Walmart."

The police department had also commented on the “fake post” depicting “highly questionable” injuries Facebook but it was also deleted, prompting The Daily Dot to question why.

The website reported an email was received from the department saying they were contacted by one of Martin’s friends who told them “she (Martin) is emotionally disturbed and that they are attempting to her the assistance that she needs. We have removed the post to avoid contributing to her difficult struggle.”
