[quote=Anonymous]The thing about being a minority over a long time in a mostly white community is that people know you. They know where you live, see your activities, where you spend time - it's not easy to fly under the radar. So if all other factors in this case were the same - well-known and liked at the school, filed a written report about the incident that started it all, could vouch for her whereabouts when she was allegedly seen driving erratically, low crime area with well-staffed and experience police force - I don't think race would have made a difference. At least, that's what I'd like to believe. It's definitely a surprise they didn't at least take her into custody and ask questions later, which would have made everything that followed much different. I think the victim's distress about what the couple did and the lengths they had gone to over the course of a year for such a minor incident is what drove the police to pursue the case.[/quote]
