Investigation involved the Secret Service
Illinois law enforcement announced Friday that Kaliyeha Clark-Mabins, a black female college student, will be charged with three counts of disorderly conduct for filing a false police report.
Kevin Schmoll, the chief of police for Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, made the announcement on Friday.
The College Fix had started asking questions about the investigation last week.
The notes said “DIE BITCH” and “BLACK PEOPLE DON’T BELONG” according to charging documents provided to The Fix by the Madison County State’s Attorney office.
“SIUE Police received [on January 23] a report of a hate crime involving the posting of hand-written notes on the door of a room in Woodland Residence Hall, along with an alleged anonymous text message thread from fall 2021 containing threatening and racially hostile content,” campus Director of Media Relations Megan Wieser said in an email to The Fix. Police responded to reports of disorderly conduct and suspicious activity, according to the crime blotter.
The investigation included not just the campus police, but the “Madison County State’s Attorney’s Office and the U.S. Secret Service,” the email said.
The investigation cleared two white students falsely accused of involvement, Amanda Jerome and Jimmi Thull.
The Fix emailed Wieser and Schmoll on Saturday and asked why the Secret Service was involved but did not receive a response. Neither provided photos of the notes.
Black students demand expulsion – when they thought white teens were to blame
A closed Change.org petition called for the expulsion of the initially suspected perpetrators.
“A black teen and her sister has had their lives threatened by some white teens on campus and have had no justice,” a user by the name of “Justice for Us” stated.
Typical, Black students demand expulsion when they believe that white students did it. Not a peep out of them when it comes to light that a Black female did it. Can you say double standard????
Same thing happened at Salisbury University TWICE and nothing happened. Both times it was proven that blacks wrote the racist messages and nothing was done. Swept under the rug by the Administration and Ed Lashley. Where was the Secret Service for those two cases? Ridiculous
as she should be, jussie smullen want a be….these people make me sick
Lather Rinse Repeat – time and time again.
I believe a few of us remember cleaning the barracks (cleaning the latrines) with a toothbrush was a life changer.
Then again times have really changed – indeed.
Gonna see the bomb threat are from BLM agitators.
Gotta continue to blame rascists (whitey) for failed dem policies
