DeKalb, DeKalb County, Illinois, USA. "I was just playing", Deja Barnes tries to turn it into a laughing matter after reporting an attempt on her life in Northern Illinois University.

February 02, 2019. fictim Deja Barnes made a 911 call from the fixed line in the lobby of the Stevenson North residence, NIU. According to police, When asked on the call what was going on, Deja gave a description of the man she said was trying to kill her. When she realised the 911 dispatcher knew precisely where the call was made from, Deja suddenly hung up.

Police say when officers conducted a follow-up interview with Deja Barnes, she confessed she was “just playing” and that she was never in danger. Another blow to the #BelieveTheVictim and #BelieveAllWomen mainstream narrative.

February 16, 2019. 18 year-old Deja Barnes was charged with disorderly conduct and released on a $5,000 personal recognizance bond.
