Denise Tree (aka Kiira Triea), the 57-year-old computer technician who is author of the
transkids.us hoax site, has just completed her one-year probation stemming from some legal troubles in 2005.
Now another victim of Denise's online hoaxes has come forward. A reader who has asked to be called 'Cleopatra Jones' notes:
I've been conned, in the past, by yet another of Kiira's "identities". In this case, perhaps the most believable (because let's face it we want to believe stories similar to ours) i have heard, namely one "Janelle Laren." I stood up for Kiira, defended her from nay-sayers and spoke of her well. I got conned. It became obvious to me when I realized she'd called me...from a disposable cell phone. Fool me once...and then I realized that all her 'personalities' had the same cell phone number and that exchanges often included a lot of talking about Kiira. She claimed to go to Washington College (in Chesterton, MD), but didn't show up in their student directory because "the bricks are after me".
