After a Youtube video went viral of a fourteen year old girl being beat on a MAX train, Portland Police were able to locate and arrest the suspects. Police went to the home of Selena Harris, the mother of two of the girls identified in the video.

"Ultimately when it came time to arrest the two girls that were her daughters she lied to police and then assisted the daughters in leaving the area and lied to police about their whereabouts"

In all 18-year-old Rakeshia Burns, her 16-year-old half-sister, and 13-year-old half-sister of the 16-year-old were all arrested and charged with Assault in the Third Degree, Riot, Disorderly Conduct in the Second Degree, Harassment, and Interfering with Public Transportation.

38-year-old Selena Estelle Harris, the mother of Burns and her 16-year-old half-sister, was also arrested for two counts of Hindering Prosecution. Harris is accused of lying to police officers about her daughters’ whereabouts and of hiding them from police.

They boarded the bus at Southeast 122nd and Market Street and attempted to use invalid transfers. The bus driver drove to the next stop and told the girls they needed to leave the bus at which point the girls became verbally abusive to the driver.

A male passenger, 23-year-old Michael Cooke, asked the girls to leave the bus so it could get moving then Markishia Duckett punched him in the face.

A WHITE female passenger, 23-year-old Natasha Van Warmer, with a small child, asked the women to stop acting out in front of her child and the women then attacked her. Tina Duckett held her by the hair while her daughter Markishia punched her.

That's it?

They should be all charged with Assault in the First Degree and HATE CRIME!

This is nothing less then a hate crime and should be prosecuted as such!!

What I really find offensive is when it’s white on black hate crime, you have the ACLU, NAACP, Al Sharpton, Lewis Farakan, Jessie Jackson, Quannel X and Every Black Person with the X Name, all rushing to file civil right law suits, hate crime suits, and everything they can think of!!

I don’t see them rushing to file suits when the shoe is on the other foot.

They are all spineless cowards and have no nuts to speak out when something like this happens.

Where is the "equal protection under the law?"
