Quote:
According to a police report obtained by Deseret Nws, the officer that was placed near the BYU student section following complaints from the Duke players and staff heard no "inappropriate comments or language."
BYU Police Det. Sgt. Richard Laursen was summoned to stand next to the man who was alleged to have made the racial comments. That fan has since been banned for life from BYU athletic venues.
According to a police report filed by Laursen the night of the incident, the man did not make any racial remarks while he was standing near him. That included the fourth set when Richardson alleged to have heard a slur while she was serving in front of the ROC (Roar of the Cougar) student section.
"During the game and while I was standing on the sideline between the Duke players and the ROC section, I didn't hear or observe any inappropriate comments or language from the ROC section," Det. Sgt. Laursen wrote in the police report.
The man in question asked why Laursen was summoned over to the section.
"I told him I was there listening for inappropriate comments toward the Duke players and the fan told me that he hadn't heard any inappropriate comments," Laursen responded. "He said he told the players that they shouldn't hit the ball into the net, but that was the only comment he made to the Duke players."
Laursen later described the man as potentially having a developmental disability.
"He seemed to be more interested in talking to me than cheering for BYU. It was evident based on the individual's comments, stuttered speech and mannerisms that he has special needs," Laursen wrote.
"Based on my training and experience in Crisis Intervention Training, he may have (A)sperger syndrome or could have autism. The individual was articulate, but socially awkward. The individual kept scrolling through his phone and didn't seem too involved in the game."
Laursen also revealed that he received mixed reviews on his performance in the situation, praised by one Duke player but chided by other players and coaches.
"I was thanked by one of the Duke players. She shook my hand and said thanks for having their team's back," he said. Later, he wrote he "was told the Duke players and coaches were very upset with what happened during the game and that the racial comments toward the Duke players was still happening during the fourth set that that (sic) I didn't do anything about the comments being made."
"I told the (BYU) Athletic staff that I never heard one racial comment being made," he added.
Laursen also reported to have reviewed film of the game following the event to see if he could observe the behavior reported by the Duke team and Rachel Richardson.
"There was nothing seen on the game film that led me to believe (he) was the person who was making comments to the player who complained about being called the 'N' word," Laursen wrote.
"During the second set, when the comment was reported to having been made, (he) was not present when the player was serving," Laursen added. "On her second time serving during the set, (he) was on his phone and didn't appear to be paying attention to the game."
Despite Laursen's report that directly contradicted Duke's account, BYU still banned the fan from all athletic venues.

The incident occurred in front of everyone, yet no mention of corroborating witnesses? They spoke to the person - ok, but what did he say? Did he admit anything? He was banned, yes - but banned for what reason?PartyBear said:
Y'all are joking right? The incident occurred in front of everyone there. They spoke to the person and the person has been banned from athletic events.
It's "cuckoo Alex Jones" to ask for at least one bit of corroborating evidence and to be skeptical of stories like this in light of the many times before it was found to be false?Stefano DiMera said:

No one is necessarily saying she is making this up. It's possible that what she thought she heard was not what was actually said.

Yes if she was saying this about Baylor instead of BYU, we would not just accept it without proof.

Then I assume this fan who got banned for life should pursue a civil action since his rights are being trampled on by Holmoe and BYU..and sue the hell out of Duke and the girl n'est pas?

Don't forget the scenario where she heard something different than what was actually said. I know this happens often. I'm married. And it can happen with only 2 people present and the only noise is the sound of suffering.

Not to hard to see through what the majority of these posters in this stupid thread are protesting, I wonder how Dave's team feels about threads like this? Yeah, the target is a jerk but so are the posts.PartyBear said:

BC he wants to blindly accept the accusations as fact and if you question it then you're racist.SIC EM 94 said:Aliceinbubbleland said:

Look! Another black-led racial hoax. This time, Oberlin College forced to pay $36M for slandering a small business for being t'racist and prosecuting shoplifters. I'm sure the bakery owners will be interviewed sympathetically by Oprah and GMA.

I've read the story, and didn't hear any corroboration of this young lady's story. Do you have a link to any corroborating witness statements?PartyBear said:

Ask Smollet or the girl at BU who did the same thing. Who knows what their motivations are, but it occurs.Stefano DiMera said:

Nothing wrong with not taking a story at face value.
