BYU Investigation: There Is "No Corroboration" For a Single Woman's Claim That She Alone Heard Constant Racial Slurs Directed At Her In a Packed Auditorium
UPDATED: It's a White Supremacist QAnon Conspiracy Theory, Says USAToday

Another racial hoax. Either she deliberately created a hoax, or she just hallucinated because she's so brainwashed and drugged-up on racist venom.

I didn't cover this latest racial hoax as it was becoming venomously viral last week, so let's review the New York Times' "reportage," which asserted the sophomore's claims were true without making any effort whatsoever to verify they were true.

I'll bold the parts where the NYT claims "facts" to be true which are false -- and at the time were completely unverified claims -- and also their attempts to stir up racial hatred and potential violence for Clicks.

I'll also bold the overwrought language and constant shrieks about "safety" and "feeling unsafe" and "feeling hurt."

Racial Slur During College Volleyball Game Leads to Fan Suspension
A women's volleyball game was moved on Saturday after a Duke University player who is Black was called a racial slur during a game the night before.
By Vimal Patel

I think Vimal Patel should get the full credit for his shoddy, unprofessional, racially-explosive Clickbait propaganda.

So should his editors.

A Duke University women's volleyball player who is Black was called a racial slur during a game Friday night in Utah, prompting Brigham Young University to ban a fan from sporting events and Duke University to change the venue of a tournament game on Saturday.
Marvin Richardson, the father of the Duke volleyball player, said in an interview late Saturday that a slur was repeatedly yelled from the stands as his daughter was serving, making her fear "the raucous crowd" could grow violent.

Complete hearsay. He wasn't even a witness to this alleged slur.

Mr. Richardson said his daughter cried to him over the phone on Friday night about the episode.
"Here we are," Mr. Richardson, who said he grew up in Fort Worth when it was still desegregating, said in the interview. "It's 2022, and we're dealing with 1960s issues."
After the episode occurred, a police officer was placed on Duke's bench.

The accused fan was banned from all BYU events -- even though, as we'll shortly see, he was falsely accused by this Racial Poisoner.

...
In a statement, Duke University said officials moved the game on Saturday against Rider University from Brigham Young's George Albert Smith Fieldhouse to a location in Provo meant to create the safest atmosphere for both teams.
The game, which was open only to staff and family members, is part of the same tournament, the doTERRA Classic, in which B.Y.U. played Duke. B.Y.U. won 3 games to 1.

Safety!

...
Mr. Richardson said he instructed his daughter that if she faced a similar situation in the future she should immediately make sure an authority figure was aware. But his daughter, who is 19, told him that she was scared of the crowd and that the safest course would be to keep her head down and continue playing.

Corrected: I originally wrote that this was an admission that Rachel Richardson did not complain about this "racist" at the time he was supposedly shouting these racist taunts, but that's wrong; apparently they had a police officer sit on the bench to protect her from the "unsafe" situation.

So at some point I guess she said something, but I'm not sure what she told people at the time. I don't understand why the father is stressing that in the future, she'll tell an authority figure about alleged racial abuse, if she already did so during the "incident" under contention here.

She didn't only "feel the ping of the slurs but also fear of the crowd," he said.

"Because as the crowd got more hyped and the epithets kept coming, she wanted to respond back but she told me she was afraid that, if she did, the raucous crowd could very well turn into a mob mentality."

To justify his daughter's claims -- and explain why she conveniently has no evidence for the umpteenth racial hoax -- the father now ups the drama to claim that a violent racial riot against what was most likely the only (or one of the only) black women present was brewing.

And the Times' Clickbait Stenographer dutifully repeats this claim without even reviewing video of the event to see if he himself could detect this roiling racist hatred stirring in the entire auditorium!

His daughter, whom he did not want identified for fear of harassment, should not have borne that burden, he said. It was the responsibility of the home team, including the coach, to ensure the visiting players felt safe, Mr. Richardson said.

Of course, she hallucinated the whole thing, or just made it up later for attention and Racial Agitation Politics.

A BYU representative apologized:

...
"The Duke players' experience is what matters here," he said. "They felt unsafe and hurt, and we were unable to address that during the game in a manner that was sufficient.

Because.

She.

Never.

Said.

Anything

For that, we truly do apologize, and we are examining our processes and practices to do everything in our power to make sure something like this doesn't happen again."

Don't worry, it didn't happen this time, either.

Mr. Richardson said that his daughter, a sophomore neuroscience major, is a strong and dynamic leader who played against Rider on Saturday night. The game, he said, had been moved to safer territory: a local high school gym.

Was a Flying Squad of trained, certified FBI Race Hustlers dispatched to the scene?

And now, the much-less discussed resolution: Another racist, race-baiting, racist-violence-inciting lie.

As part of our commitment to take any claims of racism seriously, BYU has completed its investigation into the allegation that racial heckling and slurs took place at the Duke vs. BYU women's volleyball match on August 26. We reviewed all available video and audio recordings, including security footage and raw footage from all camera angles taken by BYUtv of the match, with broadcasting audio removed (to ensure that the noise from the stands could be heard more clearly). We also reached out to more than 50 individuals who attended the event: Duke athletic department personnel and student-athletes, BYU athletic department personnel and student-athletes, event security and management and fans who were in the arena that evening, including many of the fans in the on-court student section.
From our extensive review, we have not found any evidence to corroborate the allegation that fans engaged in racial heckling or uttered racial slurs at the event. As we stated earlier, we would not tolerate any conduct that would make a student-athlete feel unsafe. That is the reason for our immediate response and our thorough investigation.
As a result of our investigation, we have lifted the ban on the fan who was identified as having uttered racial slurs during the match. We have not found any evidence that that individual engaged in such an activity. BYU sincerely apologizes to that fan for any hardship the ban has caused.

The next claim will be that White Supremacists have discovered a way to yell racial taunts that cannot be picked up on videotape or audiotape, kind of like vampires or wraiths.

Which we resemble, apparently. In some people's eyes, at least.

Via Jesse Singal, who really emphasizes the New York Times' guilt here.

It's one thing for some stupid, ignorant, brainwashed 18 year old to make up a racial hoax. All of her friends are doing it!

It's another thing for "news professionals" at a multibillion dollar propaganda corporation to promote it without any checking whatsoever.

Jesse Singal
@jessesingal
Thread, including some in-retrospect-astonishing screencaps from The New York Times' original coverage. I hope this latest news sparks an internal conversation about standards there.

As I wrote, the initial New York Times reporting on this, which made effectively no effort to independently confirm any details, painted a terrifying scene in which the BYU gym was teetering on the verge of a violent race riot. None of this happened! Bad, irresponsible journalism

As the most important newspaper in the world, you simply cannot, on the basis of one secondhand account, tell your millions of readers that that a named college gym was maybe about to lynch a black volleyball player without being damn freaking sure that's what happened. [blasphemous exclamation omitted]

The fan who was banned over a lie has surely been identified, and the New York Times claimed he was a racist without any caveat or equivocation.

Not a single "alleged" in the entire piece!

Time for a multimillion dollar defamation lawsuit.

Now maybe it's time for people to admit that no "Tea Partiers" yelled a racial slur at John Lewis at another heavily videotaped and audiotaped incident, in which no racial slur can be heard.

But I guess that's White People's natural Vampiric traits at work again.

Update: There actually is one person known for a fact to throw slurs at another race involved in this story -- and wouldn't you know it, it's the grandmother of Racial Hoaxeress herself, a Democrat agitator, constantly slurring white people.

Plot twist! No one saw that coming!

USAToday called the proposition that "if there were no slurs detectable on the extensive video of the event, therefore, it is unlikely it happened" a, get this, "conspiracy theory."

Yes it is now a "conspiracy theory" to say that if there is no evidence that something happened -- and in fact, evidence that it did not happen, for sometimes absence of evidence is evidence of absence -- it's a "conspiracy theory" to say that it probably didn't happen.

At least when a black person is making a claim about racism. Because, as well all know, #BlackPeopleNeverLieAboutRacism. Just like #MeToo's claim that women never lie about men.

It's something you may not have noticed. It's like QAnon. Or mass voter fraud. It's another conspiracy theory. This one? That Duke volleyball player Rachel Richardson, who said she was called multiple racial slurs while playing in a game at BYU, made the entire thing up.
My email inbox has been overwhelmed with this conspiracy theory. It's grown across social media. The right wing has spent extensive time promoting it.
...
What the conspiracy theories essentially all come down to is one thing: no one heard Richardson being called the slur. The belief, suddenly, is that microphones pick up every word in the arena or student section. Or that cameras are all-seeing and knowing, like mini one-eyed gods.

Amazing! "The available recorded evidence says it didn't happen, but it's a conspiracy theory to then conclude that it didn't happen."

The thing about this story, this incredible story that I knew would take the direction of "she's lying" but am still shocked it did, is that I believe Rachel Richardson. I don't believe anyone prematurely backed her. I don't think she's lying. I think she's telling the truth.
If I'm proven wrong, I'll be first in line to say so, and write that, but I've seen nothing to show she made it up.

Except for every microphone in the place somehow failing to pick up repeated racial slurs -- the "n-word," in fact, which really cuts through, audio-wise-- which this woman claims were shouted at her so that she could hear them on the court.

If she could hear them, why could the microphones that pick up every player grunt and every thump on the ball not pick up these repeated shouts of the n-word?

You know who else believes her? South Carolina women's basketball coach Dawn Staley, who canceled her program's series against BYU. Staley believes her or she wouldn't put her reputation, or that of her program, on the line.

No offense, but we're really down to "one black woman says she believes another black woman so shut up bigots" as proof?

This is the offer of proof from the guy alleging that white people all cover for each other?

Well buddy, I've noticed that black people in the media, those who had to show Racial Solidarity For the Caue, all dutifully claimed that Juicy Smolliet was telling the truth, too, so... Yeah I'm not impressed by the Black Solidarity Testimony From Media Agitators as evidence.

People like Dave Chappelle, and I imagine a lot of black people not in media or politics, knew Smollett was a liar.

But all of the black people in media and politics -- well, except those on the right, of course! -- were racially-bound to present the Racial United Front. Gotta show Black Solidarity.

So this means nothing. Less than nothing, actually. When the Black Card gets played so blatantly, that's an admission that there is literally no other evidence to support a claim.

Especially when all the electronic recording devices say that no racial slurs, let alone vigorously repeated racial slurs, were uttered.

Her grandmother claim that she was called the n-word every time she served. It's QUIET during a serve, relatively.

No microphones heard the n-word being shouted at a black girl?! No one else in the arena heard this, except this woman with the racist grandmother?

In many ways, this story is about race and how Black people have to constantly prove we're not criminals or liars. That we don't commit mass voter fraud. Or that we get jobs only because of affirmative action. We have to prove, as Richardson does, that we heard what we heard. That we saw what we saw.

And that's what this is all about, isn't it? Endless black grievance.

And the fact that White People are Vampires whose images and words cannot be captured by electronic recording devices.

We were hoping to keep that under wraps, but now that the word's out: Yeah, we vamp out when we do our Racisms.

Update:

Kate Iswell💭
@KateIswell
@LeonHWolf
Could it be that ppl were shouting "cougars" and it was misinterpreted?

The BYU team name is The Cougars.

I guess that's possible, and it would make Rachel Richardson not guilty of lying.

But it would still make her guilty of being a toxic person who hallucinates racial taunts because she's desperate to feel empowered by them.

As a wise man said, the demand for white supremacy in the US greatly exceeds the actual supply. So a lot of wildcat operators just invent it.

29 BYU, for whatever reason, really cares about women's volleyball. They have 5000+ fans for each game. Duke is probably used to maybe 300 fans. She just couldn't take the (very non-racist) crowd noise and played like shit.

As a sidenote, if you're going to start a race hoax, don't do it at the university with its own cable/satellite TV station and dozens of 4K cameras for women's volleyball.

60 And, to push the boundaries of controversy, consider this:

Is it really so awful to be called a racial slur? Is it worse than the crowd yelling "you suck" or "you are ugly"? Let's say Whitey VonCrackerson comes up to bat in Philadelphia and the crowd all yells "loser! Swing and miss! You suck!" and profanity at them.

Is that not as bad as being called "honkey"? Why is racism this magical extra bad magical evil that everyone has to stop everything and apologize even if they didn't do anything? What about it is so much worse than any other bottom line a-hole behavior?

Being a jerk is being a jerk no matter how they express it. Yelling angry and nasty things at people is the same if they use the n-word or just basic jerkitude.

I'm relieved they did this much. I read somewhere else that they were able to obtain someone else's cell phone recording which showed the stands and him in it, and at the time of the supposed racial slurs he's seated and texting on his phone, and not even paying attention to what's happening on the court. So he was just someone random guy who got named and who had never actually done anything.

111 Its been my thesis for a long time now that racism is simply a brand of being a dick. Its one particular type of jerk, but not some magically more evil kind.

If you're racist, then you're a jerk, but no more so than, say, someone who is a fan of one team and horrible to fans of their rivals. Or someone who picks on short people, or someone who is mean to the handicapped. You're just being a jerk.

If you do something more than that jerknitude, then the guilt and wrongdoing is that thing you did extra.

So: being a jerk, wrong and shameful, but not criminal
Being a jerk, then committing criminal acts is bad because of the crime, not the jerkish behavior.

How about a personal cost to the player, or anyone else who augments and amplifies her BS? No.

Was there a cost to the fan that was banned? Yes.
How about the cost to BYU of investigating the claim to defend themselves? Yes. To be fair, they probably weren't actually interested in defending themselves until they could find zero zilch nada to support her claim, but still there was a cost in manpower and reputation.

This will of course continue as long a white people act as individuals and not as a tribe that guards its gate with ferocity. Which is not something white people want to do for good reasons. Why should I go to the wall for some prick I don't know who might be guilty?
That's on him. Conversely, letting someone hang out before the facts are in is equally stupid and we haven't learned where the line is yet, so here we are, castigated as a race by hateful people with an agenda.

We all know that if you expect to hear someone say a particular word or phrase in an audio recording, and there's anything close to it in the recording, you will hear what you were expecting.

That suggests that those who reviewed the recordings didn't even hear anything that might have been mistaken for a racial slur.

I saw an example of this just today, where it was video of Joe and Jill Biden, and the caption suggested Joe said "I'm Joe Biden's husband", and sure enough when it played, that's what he said! Except he didn't. When I ignored the caption, he said "I'm Jill Biden's husband"

This. Also that I somehow oppressed someone. Just FOAD with that. Sadly we've raised an entire generation of alleged victims and that transcends race. You're told your whole life that anything bad in life is someone else's fault. It's the fault of the rich! Big corporations! Raycism! Sexism! And any other ism. It's never your fault. On the macro sense, it's not even your fault that you went to school and racked up thousands in debt for your art major, we'll take care of that too! It's not your fault, it's someone else, always.

326 I mean... they are the OATH KEEPERS. What oath do you think they are keeping?

The ADL Center on Extremism, which reviewed more than 38,000 names associated with the group, said on Tuesday that it believed that more than 100 Oath Keepers currently serve in the US military, while 373 work in law enforcement agencies, including as sheriffs and police chiefs. The analysis also identified 81 figures associated with the group who are either running for public office or serving as elected officials. At the same time, the ADL cautioned that “an individual’s inclusion in the Oath Keeper database is not proof that they were or are still an Oath Keeper, that they hold or held all or some of Oath Keeper ideology or viewpoints, or that they ever actively participated in Oath Keeper activities.”

383 Ace, if you click through the links you posted, I think you'll find out what REALLY happened. It does seem that while some of the black players were called out by their first names, none of the white players were. THAT is what most likely pissed off this twat, but that was of course not incendiary enough so she made the rest up.

I have no idea why some players would be called by their first names and others not, but I highly doubt it's racially motivated. Unless calling LeBron James "LeBron" and Charles Barkley "Charles" -- which they are called -- is also racist. Some players are known by the first names.

Go back to that night. Richardson said she heard racial abuse. She and teammates went to the Duke coaches. Police were moved near the Duke bench. BYU coaches were made aware.

An excellent way to prove you're not a liar is not blatantly, clumsily lying. I've yet to see one of these collegiate racial incidents that wasn't a lie so preposterous my 7 year old daughter woulnd't laugh at it.

But its something.

398 From the USA Today "Conspiracy Theory" opinion piece. I hope he is right, but before number one on his list happens, the young woman learns her lesson and admits the error of her ways. I'd be sorry to see her entire life scarred by this sort of stupidity.

1. Say, just for argument's sake, that Rachel Richardson made up this story. You have to believe that she did knowing she was putting not just her volleyball future at risk but her college future as a student at Duke. She'd be forever tarnished as a liar. One of the worst liars.
2. You have to believe she then lied to her dad. Which is possible. Kids lie to their parents, but about this? But also...
3. You'd have to believe she would then let her father go on CNN and repeat that lie.
Posted by: Huck Follywood at September 09, 2022 01:02 PM (WUZDa)

Number 3 isn't even an issue- the dad believed her, so what?
Number 2- kids lie about all kinds of things, especially to explain their own failure. (Maybe the dad's a tyrant coach, and she needs an excuse to explain the drumming they got by BYU). Hardly a stretch.
Number 1. I don't imagine she put anything at risk. She'll be protected and pampered.

408 Two things from the video of the BYU v Duke game.

1.) the announcer called Duke players the Dookies. Is that racist? Dookie is brown...so if anyone was racist it was that guy.

2.) Richardson missed two plays that I saw. She either sucks or had a bad game. I'm going to say it's the latter, so the lie about racist taunting was cover for her playing like she was in middle school PE class.

409 There is a pattern to this kind of thing: the left clings to a story that fits their worldview against all evidence and building proof, to the very instant its no longer supportable, then its not a story and they simply stop talking about it.

Its happened over and over. The Convington Kids. Rittenhouse self defense. Johnny Depp the wife beater. Over and over its the same pattern: that evidence is false, and even if its true here's how somehow the story is still valid, its still true dammit, stop spreading conspiracy theories, bigot haters.... ok let's just move on from this story.

That's my take after careful review of the video.

Ace's link to the racist Grandma makes the case that this morphed from fans calling out her *name* when serving and not her white teammates. This could be a simple misapprehension, because how often do you listen for other people's names being called out. Nevertheless, she fingered the guy she was filmed calmly talking to after the game, and he wasn't even in his seat when the supposed taunt was said to be uttered.

471 We can top this one: a tall loud-mouth billionaire with bright orange hair, blonde wives, and a compulsion to talk to the news media about 8 hours a day operated in New York City for 50 consecutive years, and somehow got tagged as a RAAAAAACISSSSST without even i shred of aufio or video ever produced to support that smear.

472 38 the theory behind democratic elections breaks down when a solid majority of the population in a certain city are political grifters, welfare frauds and violent criminals. And as the good ones leave, they're just going to get more and more control, not less.

It's amazing how making a city worse actually increases insider power because all the people who don't like it leave.

Man, have they ever done a number on people. I think this dumb bitch is a hoaxer, and lies on purpose, like so many in society.

But my stepdaughter was genuinely confused - borderline disturbed - by a mundane experience on the trip to our new home. We stopped at a gas station, and the owneress had some products on display featuring Confederate flags. It didn't even register with me, but you never see this where we came from, and she was born.

When we got back to the car she asked why the lady was nice to her even though she's a racist. Once I figured out what she was on about, I told her that flag is a much more complicated thing than a simple racist symbol, and that I'd explain further another time, but that most people who buy shit like that aren't actually racist, and it's just a cultural/historical feature, in most cases.

Our identitarian society is turning everyone into neurotics.

474 The only time I hear the N word in public is the occasional car passing by with a Rap song blaring or when two urbanites greet each other in public.

476 Way off topic, but really significant, imo:

Russian state television has reported that UKR "achieved a significant victory" with its recent counteroffensive.

Mind you, this isn't UKR reporting this.

I'm no longer in the market for "UKR is lying & can't win" posts, thx.

477 The next claim will be that White Supremacists have discovered a way to yell racial taunts that cannot be picked up on videotape or audiotape, kind of like vampires or wraiths.(/I)

Soon Wakandan technology will unmask this evil

479 The AWFLs should get together with the ACLU and the Junta and streamline the whole process for minorities to seek fame and redress for claiming verbal, textual, or physical assault due to their minority-hood.

The above three groups should agree to annually give 12 fame and fortune licenses for claimed public abuse as a minority. Only People must apply and the licenses will be awarded by a select panel to applicants who really seem to be worthy.

The Media can announce the winners at the end of broadcasts or last page of newspapers, saving time and ink for more stories about the evils of OrangeManBad. The courts will not be deluged with false claims. Book deals and television interviews can be worked-out in an organized fashion, and a new, two-million dollar house can be quickly built for the assaulted. Paid for by the taxpayers of the applicable city or county.

Everyone will be happier.

483 I know we've nooded, but I've been to several BYU women's volleyball games. BYU takes volleyball seriously--men and womens. This was the largest crowd ever for BYU women's volleyball--sold out, and they turned over 1000 people away from the game.

The Duke player complained between sets, apparently. So BYU sent a police officer and ushers into the stands looking for the racist. After the game, the Duke player points to a guy and says "Him!"

The police officer and a Duke administrator were standing literally right next to the fan during the 4th set, when the "racism reached its peak." They heard nothing. BYU doesn't kid around with camera, either--they have, hands down, the best camera coverage in the sport, and frequently better than prime ESPN coverage of any sport either. If it doesn't show up, it's not due to technology failure.

This never happened, though with today's environment, I bet the Duke player thought she heard something.

484 The REAL bitch is the mother (?), Lesa Pamplin. Read her damn tweets. She's a white-hater and although she's running for judge in Fort Worth, and is apparently an attorney (heaven forbid), she can't spell worth a damn.
....Sure hope she isn't elected, but given the stupidity of Democrat voters it wouldn't surprise me.

485 I don't know if it was pointed out, but this was staged at BYU, an integrated university in one of the whitest cities in the world, filled with many of the nicest people in the world (LDS) and that's why this little baiter used that location.

As soon as I heard the basic info on this I knew BS, I didn't need an investigation.

THIS WAS A LIE

487 Utah is 96% white.
It is globalist-red, not Trump-red.

I expect the joe biden admin would like to change that to purple or blue.
It might be by forced housing sales to minorities, IF any want to movere here.
But, even then, the LDS families have so many children that Utah has the youngest population age, on average, of all 50 states.
They will outbreed any incoming families in no time.
