Earlier this week, Sunny Hostin spent Tuesday on The View treating a 35-year-old cannibal trial like a personal origin story, casting herself as the lone holdout who dragged 11 angry jurors to a not-guilty-by-reason-of-insanity verdict for Daniel Rakowitz, the so-called Butcher of Tompkins Square Park.
This sounds like a horrible movie plot from the get-go, yeah? Anywho ...
That version lasted about as long as it took someone to pull the 1991 clips.
The Daily News from the day after the verdict names Asunción Cummings — Hostin, before the TV glow-up — as the juror annoyed with the holdout, arguing the defendant knew what he was doing. Other contemporaneous accounts pointed to an unemployed man who liked the $15 a day and the free meals.
It would appear Hostin was ANNOYED with the holdout juror ...
Weird, right?
Why is Sunny Hostin lying about being the hold out juror?

... verdict.
Is she really this desperate? It’s easily checked!
The answer is yes, yes she is this desperate.
Like most with a following in the public eye enabling them to be wealthy, Hostin will say or do anything regardless of truth if it will garner more attention and money for her.
