Kansas City Allegations Of Police Racism Persist Amid Serial Killer Fake News Rewrite

Sorry to ruin Halloween but it turns out that Jack The Ripper isn't lurking in the urban core waiting to attack Black women coming out of the upcoming Kevin Hart concert.

Fact is . . . Jack the Ripper probably wouldn't last 10 minutes on Prospect after dark.

And so . . .

A story that started about two weeks ago with fake news about a serial killer has been reworked to imagine that police don't really care about Black women getting kidnapped . . . Despite a bevy of resources and the entire metro squad investigating an alleged creeper and his Missouri sex dungeon. 

Let's recap . . .

We'll try to be as objective as possible . . .

Three times police have disputed allegations of racism and bias that are heretofore unproven . . .

1. A late night TikTok reported a serial killer and three Black women missing. One of them was found and later the family of another missing woman begged an activist blog to stop spreading rumors. Ultimately police said that story was completely unfounded. 

2. About a week later the news of the Missouri sex dungeon broke and activists were quick to try to make a connection. Again police disputed the reporting that didn't reference any missing person case on file and did not connect to any missing person investigation.

3. Again . . . A few more news outlets picked up the kidnapping story and attempted to connect it to an alleged serial killer case . . . And so a few days ago . . . Excelsior Springs Police Chief Gregory Dull said there are no missing persons cases “that correspond with the evidence examined so far in this investigation.”

And so . . . 

In the absence of a serial killer, local activists blame police for kidnappings.

That's their prerogative . . . Police can defend themselves, that's not our job.

But here's something to consider . . .

Given recent allegations in mainstream media . . . 

Are Black women in more danger from Jack the Ripper and getting kidnapped into a sex dungeon OR from rising crime throughout Kansas City???

Do the math on that and get back to us.

Meanwhile . . .

THE WHOLE POINT HERE SHOULD BE KEEPING BLACK WOMEN SAFE AND JACK THE RIPPER JUST ISN'T A SERIOUS THREAT EVEN IF HALLOWEEN SERIAL MURDER & SEX DUNGEON KIDNAPPING FEAR ALLOWS PUNDITS TO SCORE POLITICAL POINTS AGAINST PO-PO!!!!

Reality check . . .

Gun violence. Property crime. Domestic abuse. These are real threats against the community that happen far more frequently at the hands of friends and neighbors . . . Not by way of some suspected creeper from Excelsior Springs. 

And so . . .

This post merely serves to provide perspective . . . 

This story has become a political nightmare and there's no telling how it will end.

But so far it's troubling that activists are targeting police with criticism for their response to crimes that were initially misreported and serial killer fear that likely only impacts women coping with a myriad of problems on local streets. 

Nevertheless . . . We share more info as this story progresses and locals wait for more info beyond politically charged allegations.
