A sixth-grade student who last week accused three classmates of forcibly cutting her dreadlocks has admitted she made up the allegations, according to her family and the school principal.
Amari Allen, a 12-year-old African-American, had accused three white boys in her grade at Immanuel Christian school, in Springfield, Virginia. She said they held her down on a playground during recess, covered her mouth, called her insulting names and used scissors to cut her hair.
Fairfax police launched an investigation into the incident last week after they were contacted by the girl’s family. Meanwhile, social media erupted in outrage. Commentators made much of Vice President Pence’s wife, Karen Pence, teaching art part part time at the private school.
