Wow, very interesting guy.
"Black" kid raised by white family (mother was pregnant with him when they got married), and was always told he was a white kid with a skin condition. (link)
Read all five pages, it's worth it.
Fascinating, and slightly disturbing, story.

I believe the father over the mother from what I read there, I must admit, I come down on his side - mainly from her comments like "he's no longer part of our family" whereas his father's accepted him (or at least it reads like he has).

Oh, absolutely.
No doubt in my mind that his mother's a fucking whackjob.

ps the part about him waiting at the library all day and having no friends made me want to cry.

:(

the following makes me sad...

Judy Myers insists the rape story is true: "Any black who rapes a woman will say she asked for it."

"He has with his actions totally soured me on the black race," she says..."He's not my child," she says. "He's not a part of our lives anymore."

This whole thing is fvcked up. If she was raped, she could have had the guy lynched without any effort at all...fvck her and her lies for ruining so many lives in that family... :(
