flag Kristi Noem falsely claimed a deported man ate his arms on a flight; officials confirm the story is fabricated.

flag U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem is facing widespread criticism after multiple federal officials confirmed her claim of a deported individual eating his own arms on a flight was fabricated. flag Noem, who described the man as a self-identified cannibal and cited an air marshal’s account, provided no verifiable evidence. flag Three senior officials, including those within her own department, stated there is no record of the incident and called the story a lie. flag The Department of Homeland Security defended her by attributing the tale to a marshal, but officials disputed that source. flag The fabricated narrative, used to justify stricter immigration enforcement, has drawn scrutiny over misinformation in policy discourse.
