Video A 1994 news interview of Susan Smith and her husband, a South Carolina mom who claimed a black man carjacked her and abducted her 3 and 1 year old sons. But in reality, she had strapped them in the back and drove the car into a lake because the man she was having an affair with didn't want kids.

Sadly things haven't changed much. A couple years ago, In my hometown in North Iowa, some teenager cut herself in a suicide of attempt, but at first it was being reported all over Facebook that she was stabbed by some black guy. The search for the"black guy" was called off within hours tho
