Jenelle Evans is standing by her story regarding husband David Eason shooting and killing their pet dog amid a new report from police claiming the former Teen Mom 2 star had “fabricated” the story for publicity. After the Columbus County Sheriff’s Office announced they would not be pressing animal cruelty charges against Eason in light of their findings, Evans lashed out on Twitter over their claims that she was lying.
“This is not true,” she wrote on Twitter in response to a USA Today report quoting the Sheriff’s Office. “The police called me and asked me if it was a stunt and I told them it WASNT and I didn’t know where my dog was.”

She continued in a series of tweets that police had “harassed us for weeks about this case,” claiming she had her lawyer send them a series of letters to get the officers to leave them alone.

Want to hear Detective Jacobs voicemail? They harassed us for weeks about this case and our lawyer had to send them a letter and then again call to tell them to leave us alone. https://t.co/3fqiiuisPb

I never filed a police report… the cop begged me to call him back SO I DID. https://t.co/3fqiiuisPb

The former MTV personality also claimed to have never filed a police report, insisting she merely called back an officer who “begged” her to reach out.
This all came across as confusing to the reality personality follower’s fans, who pointed out that Eason admitted to shooting and killing the dog publicly.
EVERYONE is always lying. Youโre ALWAYS the only one telling the truth. #professionalvictim
