Ex-girlfriend: NASCAR's Busch took assassin claims from script

(Reuters) - A woman seeking a protective order against Kurt Busch on Wednesday rejected claims by the NASCAR champion that she is an assassin and said several of the race car driver's stories about her were taken from a movie screenplay she is writing.
Busch, testifying on a protective order against him in a Delaware court on Tuesday, said his ex-girlfriend Patricia Driscoll is an assassin sent on covert missions who once returned to their hotel room in a blood-splattered evening gown.
"Over the past seven years I have worked on a movie script with producers about a female CIA operative and her work on classified missions for the U.S," Driscoll said in a statement."Mr. Busch has seen and given commentary to me on the latest script because some of the stories he told on the stand are straight from the script."
Busch's lawyer, Rusty Hardin, refuted Driscoll's statement saying she has declared to many people -- not only Busch -- that she is a hired killer and the script was written from what she had been telling people for years about her personal life.
"It's not that Kurt got his story from the script, it's actually the opposite," Hardin told Reuters. "She comes up with a script that matches the story she had been telling people.
