A lesbian couple that claimed their neighbors spray painted 'Kill the Gay' on their condo are being accused by the police for doing the deed themselves.
The Douglas County Sheriff's Office in Colorado has issued a warrant for Aimee Whitchurch, 37, and Christel Conklin, 29, for forgery, false reporting and criminal mischief.
In October of 2011, the women claimed they were the victims of a horrible hate crime, saying that members of their Homeowner's Association threatened their lives, keyed their car and left a noose at their doorstep.
Last year, Conklin and Whitchurch made headlines after they publicly lashed out at their neighbors.
'For someone to target us for our lifestyle - it's ridiculous,' Conklin said to 9News at the time.
Conklin and Whitchurch had been together for four years and lived at their condominium in Parker for just six months.
They said that their dogs were a point of contention with the community and that their Homeowner's Association was accusing them of not picking up after the animals.
'It ridiculous. We have a Mastiff and a Great-Dane, two of the largest breed dogs, if we didn't pick up after them this entire place would be covered. It's completely invalid. That's just common sense,' Conklin told the network.
The incident drew lots of media attention, with support groups popping up online. Even the local chapter of the Anti-Defamation league sprang to their defense.
'This is where we live. We should feel safe. I am afraid to walk outside my place now,' Whitchurch said.
But an investigation revealed that there was no plot to target the two women, it was all just an apparent cry for attention.
Through the investigation and from witness statements, it was determined that allegations of the incident were false,' said Douglas County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Cocha Hedyen to KDVR on Thursday.
'Detectives were able to determine that the two women involved were responsible for the words that were spray painted on the garage and the placement of the noose on their own front door.'

I imagine this is the case is most of the related hate crimes reported, and only going to get worse thanks to our first gay president.
