Houston Police: Teen's story about being abducted by white supremacists wasn't true

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- Houston police say there is no evidence to support the claims made by a teenager that white supremacists abducted him, injured him and threatened him.

We first brought you this story last month when 13-year-old Zavion Parker claimed he was grabbed by an adult and four young men after stepping off his school bus.

Zavion alleges he was robbed and beaten, all because of his race. He also said he was held at a property at gunpoint until he was able to escape.

Michelle Lee, the teen's mother, told Eyewitness News her son managed to escape the gun-wielding kidnappers.

"The reason why they got him was because they said he was black. 'You deserve to die.' Exactly his words," Lee told ABC13 in May. "Saying the dad had, like, a white muscle shirt on, and you could see it, was right here big as day. 'I hate black people.'"

But after a thorough investigation, the Houston Police Department now says the events as described did not occur, that the property Parker described had nothing to do with any crime.

The fact that it wasn’t true means nothing. For the media, it could’ve been and that’s good enough.

Certainly. The emotional content of the "narrative" is more important than the facts of the case. It's all about feels and nothing about objective truth.

Some people will go to great lengths to promote the All White People Are Bad narrative.

Impossible

Blacks can’t be racist. Always victims, never perpetrators

In the 80’s in Brooklyn, two blacks who attended a majority-White middle school went home covered in white shoe polish, saying that they had been victims of a racist attack. Two black “adults” decided to avenge the crime by raping a 15-year-old White girl. . . You may have guessed by now that the shoe polish story was a hoax. The two brats put the shoe polish on each other because they wanted to be transferred to another school.

And. Folks heard all about it when it was reported. Page 1 news, so to speak.

Now what? The retraction in the sports section? So to speak?

In Nazi Germany, no one needed to create fake hate crimes. The fact that we see so many of these fake hate crimes is kind of an indication that real hate crimes are in short supply, so people feel a need to stage these fake crimes to fill the “void.”

Tawana Brawley made up her story because her stepfather - I don’t know whether her mother was actually married to the man, but he lived in the house - was quite strict with the children. Tawana had stayed out too late and was afraid he would punish her. And then Al Sharpton got involved and lives were ruined, all for a stupid teenager’s cover story.

Good point. It seems like nearly all the hoaxes are perpetrated by leftists or their progeny.

The only example I can think of was Ashley Todd, the McCain campaign volunteer that carved a “B” into her own face and blamed 0bama people. But she carved it backwards while looking in the mirror and was quickly found out.

She looked good in handcuffs. Or should I say, it's where she belonged.

In Ferguson Martin was trying to kill Officer Darren Wilson inside the car, leaning in. Shown by blood droplets,clothes tests, and more. Marztin used his enormous hands and 300 pound body to beat Wilson, who almost lost his gun and his life. Not outside “hands up, don’t shoot” but we still have lying scum of the media who perpetuated that lie.
All the women’s talk shows repeated it.

This situation may have a life of its own among ignorant and stupid people (there I go talking about liberals again).

Al Sharpton told a mob of persons of color that they should go out and get the Jews and kill them. One did confront an innocent rabbinical student Orthodox Jew and killed him in cold blood. Talk about incitement to riot.

Now Sharpton has a TV show on cable . Still waiting for justice.
