Three University of Albany Students Who Faked a Hate Crime Only Get Probation

Hate crimes carry heavy penalties when someone is convicted of one. But what happens if someone is found to have faked one? The punishment is much less severe — or, in the case of three college students, practically non-existent.

Ariel Agudio, Asha Burwell, and Alexis Briggs were all students at the University at Albany. They claimed that they were attacked while riding a bus by a group of white men, who called them the n-word and assaulted them. The three students also got into a fight with other bus riders, but accused the other people of starting the altercation.

The hate crime accusation took off like wildfire. A Twitter hashtag campaign was launched, #DefendBlackGirlsUAlbany. Protest marches at the school took place, with Black Lives Matter participating and arranging for speakers to attend. NFL players and celebrities began to chime in. And even Hillary Clinton spoke up about the alleged incident:

  1. This trio of thugettes should get the book thrown at them as if they had been prosecuted for the actual hate crime.

    Freedom of speech and expression does not guarantee you freedom of consequences!

  4. Faking a hate crime is a hate crime in and of itself. These people got off easy in court. U Albany was right to expel them. Hillary and the Libs will turn the whole event into something good for Hillary and the Libs.

  5. Hillary and Obama are still encouraging the "speaking out" and protests for their cost. You didn't see such hate from the Republicans when Clinton and Obama won the POTUS elections. Just shows you which side is really full of hate.

  6. Committing a hate crime is one thing. Falsifying a police report is another. The biggest problem is all the people willing to jump to conclusions based on only 1 side of the issue (which in this case was a lie).

  7. This is no different than the "Stolen Valor" law in my opinion. Except that it could be much more serious if violence occurred because of their fake report.

  9. Society will get their revenge. Doesn't have to be anything hostile either. All three "A"migoettes still have to apply for jobs in the future. This certainly will make it more difficult to find good employment.

    Fast Food - i.e., Golden Coral, Sizzler. Cash attendant at a car wash or oil/tune lube - yeah.

    Anything else - NOPE!

  11. If the situation had been flipped, it wouldn't have been probation. Must be Michelle's cousins.
