This just in, customer identified, denies writing the racial slur and has lawyered up (good).

“That customer and his attorney deny he had anything to do with it and say someone else could be to blame.

“Whoever put that on that receipt was very wrong,” said attorney Richard Dugger.

Devin Barnes keeps receiving threats over this, even though he maintains his innocence.

Barnes and his wife visited Red Lobster in Franklin on Saturday. Hours later, his ticket, including his name, part of his card number and his signature, wound up online, along with a racial slur.

Jenkins, who served Barnes and his wife Saturday, posted the picture of the receipt to Facebook, and the story soon attracted international attention.
Dugger provided Channel 4 News with a statement he says Barnes wrote by hand.

In the note, Barnes admitted he wrote “none” in the tip line and signed the bill, but left the total line blank.

As for the N-word, Barnes denies writing it.

“I do not approve of the use of that type of talk, not now or ever,” the note says.

The waitress will be back at work this week. In posting the picture of the ticket online, she violated Red Lobster policy.

Dugger said he hopes to soon hire a handwriting expert to analyze the ticket, the slur and his client’s handwriting.”

International news!! But not the 62-year old white guy who was attacked by a racist black in Union Square in NY or the white bus rider attacked by hateful blacks on a bus in Manhattan.
