PLANO (WBAP/KLIF)- A Plano mother and her attorneys met with Plano police asking for justice after her 13-year-old son was severely bullied.
Summer Smith says in the video, her son SeMarion was bullied, tortured and forced to drink his teammates urine while they were yelling racial slurs at him.
The incident took place at a sleepover and the video was shared to other classmates at Haggard Middle School in Plano.
Smith said Plano ISD failed to do anything about it, but after meeting with the Plano Police Chief, she’s hopeful for justice.
“He assured us that the investigation will be handled in the best way possible, that it will be handled in a timely manner,” said Smith.
They are even asking for the Federal Bureau of Investigation to consider and investigate this as a federal hate crime. A group of activists also want the boys to be expelled and the parents to be held accountable for letting this happen.
Smith said SeMarion had been bullied by classmates for over a year and no action had been taken.
She said her son was befriended by a boy at school and invited to a weekend sleepover birthday party and neither she nor her son were aware that his bullies were going to show up.
Smith said her son was woken up and coerced by the group of boys to drink urine from a plastic cup.
“How horrible must you be? This is not a prank. This is beyond bullying. You are evil. They are evil.”
Smith claimed the group of white classmates and teammates also punched, kicked and shot at SeMarion with BB guns all while calling him the N-word.
Smith said they also threatened him not to tell anyone.
“I am so proud of you. I am so proud of you,” she said to her son. “Thank you for telling me because this has got to stop. And this is going to end with him.”
A petition was made for Plano ISD to do something about it.
Smith said after posting the incident on social media, her inbox was flooded with messages about bullying incidents within the district.
