A university professor and former Democratic Party candidate was made out to be the latest Jussie Smollett after a police investigation of an alleged hate crime produced some inconvenient evidence.
“Our investigation has found no evidence of criminal intent or racial bias.”
Perpetual victimhood was taken to new heights in Virginia earlier in February when a Virginia Tech sociology professor and failed House of Delegates candidate accused some white teens of a hate crime. The trouble for Nigerian native Dr. Onwubiko Agozino and claims that the boys “unleashed a torrent of racial slurs … and threw ice bricks onto the property” came from a video readily disproving the allegations.
Within two days of the reported incident and a day after an activist group had issued a statement insisting a hate crime had taken place, the Christiansburg Police Department issued an update with their findings and a corresponding video exonerating the teens.
“After several interviews, including a third-party eyewitness, and a detailed investigation, detectives found that a group of juveniles were attending an organized function at a home in the area. Before departure, two juveniles attempted to clear frozen snow and ice out of the bed of a truck, but were unable to completely remove due to the slope of the vehicle. Upon departure, the juveniles stopped at a flat spot on the street, where a juvenile pushed out the remaining frozen snow and ice,” the police stated as video showed as much in addition to confirming music was being played at high volumes.
Prior to the video evidence, the activist group New River Valley Indivisible had deemed the incident a “despicable act of racist intimidation and harassment,” alleging that Agozino and his family “were targeted at their home by a group of 8 white young men riding in four 4 different trucks.”
“The young white men parked in front of Dr. Agozino’s home and unleashed a torrent of racials slurs, including the N-word, and threw ice bricks onto the property, blocking his driveway. This hateful assault was accompanied by the blaring of music, specifically Drake’s ‘Energy,’ in a calculated effort to terrorize and intimidate Biko and his family,” the group claimed and went on to add, “This incident is not merely a case of disorderly conduct; it is a hate crime, and it is both illegal and profoundly immoral.”
“The actions of these individuals represent a direct assault on the safety, dignity, and civil rights of a member of our community. Such behavior is a stark reminder of the persistent and insidious nature of racism, and it has not place in a just and humane society,” continued NRV before calling for state and federal charges to be applied over the alleged “racial harassment,” “assault and battery motivated by racial animus,” and “racially motivated intimidations and interference with housing rights.”
Meanwhile, as the video appeared to depict the coincidental nature of where the teens had elected to stop to address their ice problem, the Christiansburg Police Department had stated, “Our investigation has found no evidence of criminal intent or racial bias,” and, “At no time did any juveniles yell obscenities, or direct attention to any homes in the area while clearing the snow and ice.”
Steadfast in victimhood, Agozino reacted to the publication of evidence with a statement via NRV reporting another vehicle outside his home while describing the teens he’d accused of a hate crime as being “suspicious young white men.”
“I hope that your conclusion that there was no evidence of criminal intent or racial bias and claim of incorrect reports do not have the unintended consequence of emboldening the suspects or others to attempt similar conducts against me or against others in the community where more serious reports of hate crime have recently been made,” the professor went on, asserting justification in feeling threatened.
