Atlanta hate hoax: Author of KKK notes turns out to be black woman
2021-10-07
[HotAir] This happened in a suburb of Atlanta called Douglasville. At least seven black families in one subdivision began receiving letters that claimed to have come from a man who described himself as a member of the KKK. This local news report from March describes the letters as containing “frightening and racist terroristic threats.” One man who received one of the letters told the station it described killing whole families, murdering children and burning down the homes of the recipients.

After the report in March and efforts by the police to find the person leaving them, the letters stopped for six months.

[Detective Nathan] Shumaker and Andre Futch, another detective who worked the case, went door to door to check doorbell cameras and gather any clues they could. The detectives also walked the neighborhood several times and handed out flyers to Brookmont residents.

“By mid-March, we really didn’t have anything to go on,” Shumaker said.

Had the suspect simply stopped at that point, police might never have caught anyone. But then another letter was delivered on Sep. 6. That led to a clue which was enough for the detectives to get a search warrant for the home of 30-year-old Terresha Lucas. It turned out the person behind the racist notes directed at black families was a black woman.

Terresha Lucas, 30, was arrested Wednesday and charged with eight counts of terroristic threats and acts. She made her first court appearance Thursday morning and was denied bond, the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office told Fox News.

#3  Douglasville says it all, what a shithole of a town. It is the only place in the south that I have been recruited to join an Aryan nation group though.

#2  KKK/UKA as we know it actually cease to exist in 1987-87.

Lawyers Morris Dees of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC)and Beulah Mae Donald, the mother of Michael Donald, sued the KKK/UKA (aka United Klan's of America) and won.

The Alabama all-White jury found the KKK/UKA responsible and ordered them to pay $7 million.

However, the KKK/UKA did not have sufficient assets and funds to pay the fine. So, The KKK/UKA sold off their assets and were still short $Millions for the Lawsuit Settlement.

NOW A LEGAL QUESTION TO PONDER
Since the KKK/UKA came up short on the total Lawsuit settlement amount.

Does that mean the Southern Poverty Law Center and the estate (or descendants) of Beulah Mae Donald technically the last owners, or still owners, of the KKK/UKA ....

So is the KKK/UKA now/was Black-American owned ?

#1  Just because she is black they are assuming she is not in the KKK? The KKK has had one of the best Diversity, Inclusion and Equity program in America. After all when was the last KKK letter or racist graffiti not written by a minority.
