More On The TikTok Spreading Lies About The U.S. Air Force Soldier Dottie La
According to Carter, a TikTok with the on-screen caption, “girl Took the Bonus to Enlist, Now She’s Afraid To Go To War,” portrays Dottie La as someone who was “crying” about her time in the military and “wanting to quit” after receiving an $8,000 sign-on bonus and signing an 8-year contract. However, per Carter, the contract doesn’t exist, and neither does the sign-on bonus.
“I never got a bonus joining the military – I never got a bonus,” La told Carter. “… I joined about four years ago, and in the video, they’re saying I joined a month ago. And they said I joined for the money, which is not the case at all.”
La Claps Back
Per Dottie La, she’s not sure why she’s being targeted. Additionally, she says that she’s reported “PPBaby Podcast” and other accounts spreading false, defamatory information about her. However, up to now, TikTok has not complied with removing the accounts.
