Caitlin Davis was fired as a cheerleader for the New England Patriots after a series of photos appeared on Facebook that appear to show the 19-year-old writing profanities all over a friend who was passed out on a couch.
Davis and a friend appeared to have written words “penis,” ‘I’m a Jew’ and a pair of swastikas on the sleeping victim.
The Nazi imagery likely did not sit well with Patriots owners Bob and Myra Kraft, who are members of the Anti-Defamation League.
The pics of Davis originally appeared on Facebook and then made their way to onblastatlast.com and the popular sports blog, deadspin.com.
Davis has since spoken to TMZ in an effort to set the record straight.
In a statement to TMZ, 18-year-old Caitlin Davis refuses to take responsibility for the offensive images drawn on a drunk guy who passed out at a party, because, "The kid in the picture was a 'drunk guy who passed out and was written on,' as his costume for the night."
It all went down in a dorm at Boston College. Caitlin claims, "Me and my girls left the dorm and went to another house and came back to the kid passed out on the futon we were suppose to sleep on. The guys ended up drawing more on him due to the fact that he was the first one to pass out on Halloween night ... At the time I had jumped in the picture with the kid, I didn't realize what had been drawn on him, which I take responsibility for not being alert."
She adds, "Me and my girlfirends [sic] took pictures with him because we found it humorous how badly he was drawn on."
