Well, This Is A Relief
In a manner of speaking
ORLANDO, Florida (AP) — An attorney for a former astronaut wanted to set the record straight Friday: Lisa Nowak didn’t wear diapers during the 950-mile road trip to confront a romantic rival.
“The biggest lie in this preposterous tale that has been told is that my client drove from Houston, Texas, to Orlando, Florida, nonstop, wearing a diaper,” Donald Lykkebak said after filing motions to suppress evidence in Nowak’s criminal case. “That is an absolute fabrication.”
The tidbit that Nowak wore diapers during her trip was written in the police report filed after Nowak’s arrest in February. The diaper detail became fodder for late-night TV comics and talk radio and even inspired an episode of the NBC show “Law & Order.”
There were toddler-size diapers in her car when she was arrested, but they were several years old, Lykkebak said. Nowak and her family had used them when Houston was evacuated in 2005 during Hurricane Rita, he said.
It’s comforting to know that she and her family shared the diapers on a previous trip.

Sounds like she cleans out her car about as often as I do.
Hmmmmm….if that’s the biggest lie in this sordid affair, then I suppose Nowak is looking at an extended stay at a government operated insitution.
