It's A Million Little Pieces all over again. Margaret B. Jones, a biracial gangbanger who shared her story of running drugs in South Central L.A. in Love and Consequences — recently hailed by O, The Oprah Magazine as "a startlingly tender memoir" — has been revealed to actually be Margaret Seltzer, a well-off 33-year-old from the San Fernando Valley.
