A newspaper article in the Times Herald-Record in April about Jessica Vega's dying wish for a dream wedding led to an outpouring of support, with strangers offering to pay for everything from the wedding dress and the flowers, to a honeymoon in Aruba.

Vega, 23, told people she had been diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia and had less than a year to live. She showed the newspaper a letter from a Dr. Dan Costin, confirming her diagnosis.

A follow-up newspaper article over Labor Day weekend told a different story. Vega's husband, Michael O’Connell, says she faked the cancer diagnosis to elicit sympathy and scam people into helping pay for the wedding. According to the newspaper article, Dr. Crostin's office confirmed that she was never a patient there.

I think she lied about being a chick too. Looks like a dude with a ribbon in its hair.

Her estranged husband probably really got the "shaft".
