Houston Police: Teen's story about being abducted by white supremacists wasn't true
2018-06-07
[ABC13] 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.

HPD says they will not be filing charges against anyone involved in what was essentially a false report.

#4  to #1: Interesting info. My wife (not Zulu) blamed the cat for items she couldn't find. I just ignored/eyerolled it, until the day we caught the cat hiding her keys between the sofa cushions. Found quite the cache there.

I can think of someone who needs to be charged.

#1  If a Zulu misplaces his cellie, it is not the individual's fault, the fone has made itself difficult to find. A very supersticious culture with a seemingly genetic knack for blaming misfortune on others, the weather, or innate objects.
