Wow, a Google search of Tara's email handle usftara turned up something interesting. I believe there is enough info at this
link to be sure it's the "real" Tara (we have to be careful - there is another Tara currently attending the University of
Southern Florida - usf - who is 22 years old and has used this handle before). But MODS if this link is not appropriate I
apologize - please remove it!

WARNING - this website is extremely trashy and apparently delights in flirting getting as close to obscene without being
outright pornographic. From what little I gathered from browsing it for awhile (which I would NOT recommend), the site's
raison d'etre is to encourage people to upload humiliating pictures of their frenemies along with snarky commentary.
However, I do think it is relevant to the thread for the following reasons:
1) It seems clear to me that the picture is of Tara Lintz (please tell me if I need an optometrist).
2) The commentary that was submitted with the photo references an ex-husband named "petey" (Peter Belcastro?), says she works at a dog track in St. Petersburg, AND
3) The picture and commentary were posted on this site on January 5 2009 - three days after CC reported receiving one of the death threats.
I'm not sure what to make of it, but if I had to choose a theory I'd say that a mutual "aquaintance" of Sheri and Tara (someone who obviously liked Sheri better) got wind of the affair. Just based on the comment that "She goes around Tampa looking down her nose at anything female"; sounds more like what a woman would say IMO.
OK, back to lurking.
