Yes, b, there was another case a couple of years ago in which I seem to remember some foreign tourists were prosecuted for lying about being robbed.
and btw....tell me, is Lochte's Portuguese fluent or did the robber tell him in understandable English to get down on the ground? Interesting. (Our charity dollars at work? ESL lessons in the favelas for potential thieves to communicate their demands to tourists?)
