A distressing video has surfaced online showing a black middle schooler being forced to drink his white teammates urine at a sleepover. The video has the world outraged. New evidence reveals disturbing instances of bullying and racism that went beyond this disturbing event.
Trigger Warning: Racial Abuse
A distressing video has gone viral where a young black middle schooler was forced to drink the urine of his teammates from a cup at a sleepover.
It was soon revealed that instances of bullying went beyond this single event and were just as disturbing.
SeMarion Humphrey, 13, is seeking justice with his mother Summer Alicia who revealed that nothing had been done on the school's part to help the boy.
This screenshot reveals a student hurling racial slurs in Humphries comments on Snapchat.
Humphries also pushed back and revealed that he was bullied for taking prescription medication, being forced to drink urine among other disturbing claims.
He was repeatedly subjected to physical assault and racial slurs at the school. He had reportedly been struck in the genitals in a locker room and had his inhaler withheld. When complaints were made to the school's principal they responded with "Boys will be boys."
The urine incident was a small part of the abuse he was subjected to that night. His attorney stated,
"A couple of weeks ago SeMarion was ecstatic when a former teammate invited him to a sleepover. But little did he know what had been planned for him."
"While at the sleepover several White students shot SeMarion with BB guns. When he was asleep they slapped him, all while calling him racial slurs."
"And worse yet, they forced SeMarion to drink their urine."
Alicia Summer's went public with the information upon the school's inaction only to have Facebook take down the posts.
Since the event sparked outrage, however, she was shown more support and has since started a petition against Plano ISD.
She has also started a fundraiser to pay for her son's therapy and to transfer him to a private school away from his bullies. She states in the fundraiser.
"SeMarion has been subjected to the unthinkable. He is in need of therapy and is planning to change to a private school. Please donate what you can to help with the expenses of therapy and private schooling."
They have since met the goal to allow him to attend the private school.
Plano ISD has since released a statement addressing the matter
"I want to let our community know that Plano ISD does not tolerate bullying or harassment and believe every student must be treated with dignity and respect."
A student, however, revealed that no action was really taken and shared an email sent by the school to its students.
