Rumor has it that Breitbart and O'Keefe were about to be hit with a bombshell themselves. [View all]

Involving a woman they were using to smear the Occupy movement. The story goes like this: Conservative blogger https://twitter.com/#!/NadiaNaffe agreed to O'Keefe to make up claims of being raped at an Occupy event. O'Keefe picked her up, purchased alcohol, and took her back to his parents house to get prepped, and then when she changed her mind O'Keefe locked her in a barn on his parents property and threatened her, allegedly with another man present as well. She threatened to call police and before letting her out he offered her $$$ to stay silent about what happened and she was on the verge of exposing Breitbart and O'Keefe for making up false rape stories.
