Wonder Woman Lynda Carter Finds Body In The Potomac

WASHINGTON (AP) _ The actress who played Wonder Woman on TV in the 1970s says she didn't do anything extraordinary when she discovered a body this week on the Potomac River in Washington.

Lynda Carter tells The Washington Post she was alone in a boat when she saw the body Wednesday. She says she didn't have a cell phone with her, so she yelled to some fishermen and asked them to call police. Carter waited until rescuers arrived and directed them to the body.

District of Columbia police say the body of 47-year-old Helen Johnstone of Washington was found floating on the river Wednesday. The medical examiner's office has not declared an official cause of death.

Carter says she "did what anybody would have done."

How odd, the aging trophy wife of a Republican bigwig just happens to find a dead body in the river. That reminds me, has that blonde lobbyist who supposedly screwed John McCain ever ...um ...resurfaced?

Looks like Wonder Woman was a little late...

Happens everyday in Iraq

Ok so she found a body floating and called the cops. End of story. Enough already. Lets move on.

Still the most beautiful woman in the world.

But lose that hairdo, what you are thinking?

oooo, i like the conspiracy commentary here. it's a much better story than the boring little 4 paragraph bit. keep em coming, i'm obviously bored today.

[Tommygun264]

Well, she "claims" she just found the body...

[stringer]

Wonder Woman indeed!

[UncleLiberal]

I have no idea what any of you are saying. This sounds like a case for Barnaby Jones.

[TroubleNYC]

She looks hot for someone who could be my mom.

When I read about a body found floating in the Potomac,
my first thought was, "Vicky Iseman!"

The Good-Citizen work by
Ms. Carter is commendable.

Not everybody would have called the police and waited.
Ask those A*holes in Hartford CT.

[JDJase]

I was thinkin about that same thing

[MsLiz]

In Hartford, 911 received four calls within 60 seconds. You can't tell that from the video. Given the traffic and the nature of the hit and run, I think I would have been leary of going out in the street. I hope I would have tried to stop some cars to block traffic until the police arrived.

They heard whining and thought it was Joe Lieberman.

[bikerdude]

Watch the A*hole stuff, Chitown...CT is Lieberman country you know...

All the world’s waiting for you, and the power you possess.

In your satin tights, fighting for your rights

And the old Red, White and Blue.

You’re a wonder, Wonder Woman.
