University of Iowa student's family recants claims of hate crime

IOWA CITY — Marcus Owens, the black University of Iowa student whose family claimed he was the victim of a hate crime and racial slurs at the hands of three white men, has issued a public apology after an Iowa City police investigation showed him to be involved in three fights during the hours the assault was alleged to have occurred.

“Upon learning more details of the case, and while racial slurs served to fuel the violence, Marcus now knows that his account of events was inconsistent with police findings,” a statement from Owens and his family reads, “in part due to alcohol being involved, his embarrassment at his behavior, as well as injuries he sustained.”

Owens originally reported to Iowa City police on May 2 that he had been assaulted by three white men in the alley way of the 200 block of Iowa Avenue on April 30. Owens told police the attack happened between 10 and 11 p.m. Owens suffered several injuries, including broken teeth, during the fight.

and of course

No charges are expected to be filed, the police department said in a news release.

No accountability. No charges for filing a false police report.

Whats up with college students constantly lying about hate crimes and rape?

 

[Cmart]

Yeah but he's probably at least overheard some racial slurs at some point so really, he's justified.

Should be charged for libel and false filing. I wonder how much tax payers $ was wasted on this investigation.

Being a victim has become something to aspire to.

Saying you graduated college a semester early at the top of your class, while working for a charitable organization and then starting your own company will get you a pat on the back from friends and family.

Saying you got in a fight with three white guys who uttered a few taboo words will get you a national news story and 100,000 hits on twitter telling you you're brave and a civil rights hero.

 

[Cubo de Sangre]

We should all file false police reports on someone and see what happens. It'll be fun.

 

[Prime Ang]

If you make a fake claim, death penalty, problem solved, goes for rape and hate crimes.

National attention and sympathy donations.

Remember the Red Lobster receipt incident?

Ah yes, that is proportionate. Let's extend this death penalty for lying to conservatives, especially those lying right wing radio hosts while we're at it, and see if you still feel that way.

This kind of shit is extremely disgusting. We had many 'fake refugee crime' cases over the last few months in Germany.

The Sad fact is, Some people will still believe the original fake story as opposed to believing the recanting statements from the accuser. Because in their eyes, if it can happen, it probably did happen, he's just recanting because of political pressure.

Every culture or sub culture has its share of irredeemable asshats that will sell out or do anything to for personal gain.

Do you even Victim Status, bro?

What's the zeitgeist like over there right now? Are people tired of all the bullshit and calling for Merkel's head, or is all the turmoil exaggerated? I'ts hard to tell reading different stories online.

Some conservatives radio talk show hosts may stretch the truth, but they are not going to the police and falsely accusing people of hate crimes. There has to be some form of punishment for falsely accusing people of serious crimes.

"while racial slurs served to fuel the violence"

So it's really a non-apology.

 

[ripskater]

The sjw's need to get some consequence for it. If not they will do it again.
