02/07/2008 - Kat Von D - 50th Annual GRAMMY Awards - Fuse TV Party - Arrivals - GOA - Hollywood, CA, USA © Inez Lewis / PR PhotosThe photograph of Kat features a written autograph with a flaming Star of David, swastika with the words "burn in hell Jewbag" written on it. Nobody witnessed Kat write this.Ami said he went to TLC with it, but they basically ignored him. He had a lawyer brought in and TLC took the photo to a handwriting analyst who claimed there's a 99% chance Kat wrote it. TLC told TMZ that they did an investigation and Kat denied she wrote the message. They determined there was not enough evidence to punish anybody. Kat has a hit show, "L.A. Ink" on TLC.Kat told TMZ, "The recent accusation of a publicity photo of me with offensive and anti-semitic comments and graphics allegedly written by me is completely false and unfounded, and clearly a forgery. This was already proven many months ago to be 100 percent untrue. I always have been, and will continue to be an advocate for tolerance of all races, religions and ways of life."

How come the handwriting analyst who looked into this says he is 99% certain it was her writing? She claims forgery. This is as bad as Roger Clemens and his Trainer. Someone is lying as big as they come in both cases here. If its her, may TLC cancel her show. Its only fair.
