Statement of Facts for West Bend False Racism Accuser

This is very telling.  Here are some highlights. 

At 2:12 and 53 seconds cameras show the 15 year old student entering the stairwell. The cameras do not show any students following her into the stairwell. At 2:13 and 49 seconds outside surveillance cameras show the victim walking to a car in the parking lot.

At approximately 2:15 p.m. the 15 year old and her mother reported the egging incident to school officials. School officials checked the stairwell and did not find any egg shells in the stairwell. They observed a spot of liquid on the stairs that they described as an egg mixture.

So there was nobody else in the stairwell and she reported the incident all of 1 minute and 11 seconds after she exited the building. 

On Thursday, October 9, 2008 at approximately 9:20 a.m. the 15 year student reported she was walking down some stairs when a male came behind her, pushed her down, and stated “put this on the news.”

[...]

A school official was in the hallway and was watching the 15 year old student. The school official reported that no one stopped and talked to the 15 year old while she was in the hallway.

Completely fabricated.

On Monday, October 13, 2008 the 15 year old student stated that at 9:15 a.m. a male student walked past her in a hallway and made an offensive statement referring to her race.

[...]

That male was interviewed and he denied making any such statement. During the interview officers learned this subject has a step-father and sisters that are African-American.

Yeah… uh huh.

On Wednesday, October 15, 2008 the 15 year old student reported that at approximately 10:15 a.m. a female student bumped her and stated “I’ll teach you about showing your face around here.” A school official was following the 15 year old and he did not observe anyone bump the 15 year old, nor did he hear anyone say anything to the 15 year old girl. Investigators viewed the surveillance from the hallway. They observed the 15 year old in the hallway, and no one is observed bumping her. The surveillance also depicts the school official walking behind the 15 year old.

Lie.

As mentioned above video surveillance shows the victim made false allegations. We interviewed students who have lockers in the vicinity of the alleged victim. None of the students reported seeing or hearing anyone threaten or make inappropriate comments to the alleged victim. We interviewed present and past African-American students of the West Bend High Schools. None of these students gave any statements that supported the claims made by the 15 year old female in the above incidents. We briefed school staff and had them pay special attention and later follow the 15 year old in an attempt to identify possible suspects. Not only did the staff not observe any violations, but they were following the student when she made false allegations.

Bam. 

This doesn’t look like a case of a girl trying to get attention and the whole thing snowballing.  This looks like a deliberate attempt to create a pattern of harassment for which they could sue the district.  Furthermore, the mother was clearly in on it and driving it.  These are just a couple of racial con artists. 

The West Bend East administration deserves a lot of praise for handling this just right.  They took the accusations of racism seriously and investigated them.  They went further to actively monitor and supervise the girl to make sure that she was not being harassed.  Their actions have saved the taxpayers of West Bend a lawsuit and they deserve to be commended.
