Another Fake Hate Crime
Lovely. Carla Lewis, a white woman married to a black man, has now admitted that she lied to the authorities when she claimed to have returned home on October 3 to find racial slurs and references to the Ku Klux Klan painted in her house and pictures of her biracial children thrown upside down on the ground, and that she actually committed those acts herself. Funny-money quote:
Her report prompted King Salim Khalfani, texecutive director of the state branch of the NAACP, to urge the FBI and state police to take over the investigation becase, he said, he did not think the local sheirff’s department would take the charge seriously and pursue it has a hate crime.
Gee, I wonder why?

Are there laws regarding penalties for actions motivated by fake hate? There certainly should be. The state police needs to investigate any and all fake-hate crimes.
