A grand jury on Monday indicted Ariel Agudio, Asha Burwell and Alexis Briggs, all 20, each on a charge of third-degree assault and multiple counts of falsely reporting an incident, the Albany District Attorney's Office said.
Agudio and Burwell also face charges of harassment. Agudio also was charged with two counts of attempted assault.
The State University of New York at Albany rallied behind the students, who are black, when they came forward with claims that a group of white men and women attacked them on January 30 in a confrontation on a city bus. Students held a rally and university President Robert J. Jones said in a letter to students and faculty that he was "deeply concerned, saddened and angry about this incident."
They should have done it in Salisbury instead, no one would have been able to figure out what to charge them with.

ReplyDelete"The State University of New York at Albany rallied behind the students, who are black, when they came forward with claims..."
ReplyDeleteWithout a shred of evidence, reacting to baseless claims.
Have we seen enough of this, or what?
white college kids do the same thing then when you are caught just claim SU privilege.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe there are still people who are stupid enough to believe anyone who says they were attacked and it was racially motivated. How long will it take before it dawns on people that these people have issues with lying. They do not value honesty. They will lie at the drop of a hat.
ReplyDeleteAriel, Asha, and Alexis. Let me guess. They're all sorority sisters.
ReplyDeleteFunny how other universities have no problem with holding students accountable for their race baiting crimes yet SU and Eschbach don't. All we got was a lame excuse about how they're a state agency and bureaucracy garbage. Eschbach has a week more and I'll call and complain to the USM citing all these other cases and ask why nothing has been done.
