Deputies: Parkside student confesses to creating list

SOMERS — Following days of reported hate crimes and heightened security at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside, a student has confessed to creating the list threatening black students because she wanted greater attention to the issue, according to authorities Friday night.

The suspect, whose identity was being withheld for her protection, reportedly told authorities she created the fliers — which listed 13 black students by name and threatened they were going to die in two days — found Thursday because she was not satisfied with the initial response from a resident assistant to rubber bands that were said to look like a noose, according to a press release from the Kenosha County Sheriff’s Department Friday.

In an escalation of events since Wednesday, which kicked off Black History Month on campus, a series of what was initially believed to be racially motivated threats at Parkside, 900 Wood Road, had sparked an atmosphere of fear among students and launched a criminal investigation on the campus.

“There is absolutely no danger to the students at Parkside due to this threat,” the release said. “Through investigation KSD’s detectives were able to determine that there never was a threat of harm to students at Parkside.”

"I'm all cried out," said Darryl Griffin, who was also targeted.  "I don't know where to go from here."

"Oh, you scheduled to die in two days.  I don't know where to go. I don't want to go to class, I don't want to graduate anymore.  Why?  Because I fear I'm going to die."

University officals said a noose was also discovered, though student Aubrina Banks claims she saw two nooses.

"There was that one in the hallway and one hanging on my door," she said.

The university added security Friday, including five UW-Milwaukee officers who will patrol all residence halls. 

 

 

Of course if whites are threatened, harrased, or assaulted because of this hoax, expect nothing but denial, coverup and lies from the university and police.

I heard, on a south-eastern Wisconsin radio station report, that the residence hall was a “black residence hall.” Did anyone else hear or read this?

There isn’t any black person in America under the age of 60 who has ever been denied any civil right, been told to sit in the back of a bus, drink from a separate water fountain or eat at a separate lunch counter. Ever.

How many times have we seen this? Practically every time it’s a hoax perpetrated by a member of the minority group.

“When you hear the term noose, you get a certain picture in your head,” Sheriff David Beth said.

Right Sheriff Beth.

I 'get the picture' of the Old West and the hangings of Horse Thieves, Cattle Rustlers, Wanted Killers, and other assorted scumbags getting their 'just due'.

Huh? What's that Sheriff?
Is there another picture I'm 'supposed to get'?

This bogus “hate crime” is one of the dumbest I’ve seen. Beyond dumb, as in how the heck did she even get into this publicly funded Wisconsin State University. We all know the answer to that.

Seems to be her...

Threat target appreciates fellow students’ support

Sigh... and so it goes... and so it goes...
