False Report Charge For Girl In Athens School Attack
False Report Charge For Girl In Athens School Attack
04/09/08 - Athens
New devolpments today in the case of a supposed beating of a student from Athens ISD.
13 year old Melanie Bowers is having charges filed against her by Athens ISD today through the Henderson County Attorney's office for filing a false report, said Athens ISD officials today.
Bowers had claimed that she was beaten and threatened by a group of students at Athens ISD last Friday for creating a protest sign saying, "If you love our nation, stop illegal immigration."
After the incident, administrators reviewed videotapes of the incident which showed Bowers scratching herself on her arm. Some students reportedly threw her project into the trash, but no physical attacks or threats were substantiated.
Bowers' parents have reportedly apologized to school administrators for their daughter and Bowers' father is agreeing with the charges against her.
KLTV 7 News will have a video exclusive of the tape from Athens ISD tonight on KLTV 7 News at 5:00, 6:00, and 10:00 pm.
