Another hate crime hoax, this time at U of Iowa

This was a big story in the local Chicago news a couple weeks ago. A black student from Naperville, Marcus Owens, claimed he was the victim of an unprovoked attack by three white students who used racial epithets. Anyway, the whole thing was a fabrication.

But a two-week investigation by Iowa City Police found that a heavily intoxicated Owens was an instigator during several altercations that began inside the Eden Lounge early May 1 and continued in downtown streets. One of the fights involved Owens and some of his friends beating someone who used a racial epithet, police said.

"Marcus Owens and the entire Owens family would like to issue their deepest apologies to Marcus's friends, the Iowa City community, the University of Iowa, and the Iowa City Police Department for the misunderstandings and anxiety stemming from Marcus's involvement in a violent incident in downtown Iowa City on May 1," the letter said. "Just as we have learned many life-changing lessons, we hope too that the community will continue to examine the many issues raised by this unfortunate incident."

Pretty much every story like this is a false flag. It's good to see people waking up.

Liberals: "The story may not be true, but at least it starts a conversation."

When will someone address this epidemic of false accusations? I'm having trouble recalling the last one that was true.

Police said Tuesday that Owens, a 2015 graduate of Waubonsie Valley High School in Aurora, would not face charges for filing a false report, fighting or underage drinking, and that they would not seek restitution to recover the costs of their investigation. They said they wanted to avoid lengthy court proceedings in the case that shook the normally quiet college town.
frick that, throw his arse in jail.

Is Rolling Stone still going to run their piece on this?

Still the GOAT false flag was the "vandalizing" of the honorable black faculty's photos at Harvard. By putting tape on them. Yeah sure. If a crazy white wanted to vandalize that he would have done something worse than put a piece of electrical tape on them.

And that conversation is that you can't trust liberals. Furthermore, the next time a real hate crime occurs, ignore it because it's probably a lie.
Do parents not read The Boy Who Cried Wolf anymore?

What is causing these false attacks? It's an enigma.

Young black people know they instantly become a victim when they scream racism so they play the card and hope it works. They're just a product of what they see on TV and hear in the classroom.

You can't blame them. There are literally no repercussions for doing so.

Looking for a cause. Looking for attention. Looking for a handout. Who knows.

I was about to post about Brawley when I saw your picture. What's old is new again.
Google Tawana and see.

This is bullshite. If there are no consequences for his actions then others will try the same shite thinking they can get away with it.

Yeah, this is like rolling around in a wheelchair, getting busted then saying, "I may not be crippled but we still need to continue the discussion of the virtually non-existent problem of polio in this country".

Exactly. Perpetual victims.
