WHITE STUDENTS DRAG 12-YEAR-OLD BLACK GIRL WITH ROPE AROUND NECK WHILE SCHOOL DOES NOTHING


Posted by Christian Drake on 15 Jun 2016




25 students from Live Oak Classical School in Waco, Texas attended an overnight field trip to Enchanted Rock State Natural Area before going to Germer Ranch to stay the night. Once at Germer Ranch, though, things took a very dark turn as a group of white male students preyed upon a 12-year-old black female student in what could be a hate crime.
The girl was helping other students swing on a rope swing. After pushing them and then standing back to watch them, she suddenly felt a rope loop around her neck. The rope tightened then started pulling her, as a group of white boys started dragging her around by the neck with the rope.
Luckily, the girl was not choked to the point of brain damage or worse. However, she did sustain visibly serious injury from the rope against her skin. Once this was brought up to the school, they immediately declared that this was just an accident.
David Deaconson, a Waco attorney representing Live Oak Classical School, released the following statement:

“My response would be that anyone can allege anything they want to in a petition, but that doesn’t make it fact. Live Oak will continue to rely on and stand behind the actual facts and that this was an accident.”
A group of boys, in concert, looped a rope around a girl’s neck and literally dragged her around. The fact that ANYONE is trying to call this an “accident” is insulting to the intelligence of any person.

DOES THIS LOOK LIKE AN ACCIDENT?



The School Dean, Allison Buras, actually said this:
“It sounds like he may have pushed on the back of her leg to make her leg buckle, which is something the kids sometimes do. Rarely is that done out of meanness but more out of a desire for sport.”
How the hell does buckling someone’s leg equal putting a rope around their neck and dragging them until it looks like the above picture? She is literally calling a “play-lynching” for lack of a better term, of a black girl by a group of white boys SPORT.
The ranch where the incident occurred is also accused of not having proper chaperoning on hand to prevent the incident from occurring to the severity that it did.
The parents of the girl have filed a 3 million dollar lawsuit against the school and ranch for negligence, gross negligence, and intentional infliction of emotional distress against the school. The Germer ranch is also mentioned by way of premises liability.
Local police in Waco are also conducting an independent investigation, but the school’s lawyer remains steadfast in the assertion that a group of boys intentionally looping a rope around a girl’s neck and dragging her around was completely accidental and unavoidable. Even for Texas, this one is ridiculous.
