A black student at a Christian school in Virginia who accused three white sixth grade boys of cutting her dreadlocks and calling her ugly now says she was lying about the attack.

Amari Allen, 12, told NBC Washington last week that she was playing at recess at Immanuel Christian School in Springfield when one boy grabbed her arms, another put his hands over her mouth and a third cut her hair.

"They said my hair was nappy and I was ugly," she said.

The alleged incident garnered national attention partially because Vice President Mike Pence's wife, Karen, teaches part-time at Immanuel Christian School.

On Monday, Stephen Danish, the head of Immanuel Christian School, said in a statement that Amari had "acknowledged that the allegations were false."

Danish thanked the Fairfax County Police Department for their work investigating the accusations. The Fairfax Police Department had no comment Monday.

Amari's family's attorney told NBC Washington that security camera footage viewed during the investigation showed that the attack did not happen where and when Amari alleged. She does maintain that she has been bullied, the attorney said.

"While we are relieved to hear the truth and bring the events of the past few days to a close, we also feel tremendous pain for the victims and the hurt on both sides of this conflict. We recognize that we now enter what will be a long season of healing," Danish's statement said.

"This ordeal has revealed that we as a school family are not immune from the effects of deep racial wounds in our society. We view this incident as an opportunity to be part of a learning and healing process, and we will continue to support the students and families involved," he said.

False claims of racially-motivated assault are rare, according to Katheryn Russell-Brown, who directs the University of Florida Law School

Victim culture is a worse addiction than smoking cigarettes or crack.

Pretty much. How is it that they don't realize at the onset that they will eventually get caught.

Assault charges could have been filed against the boys and they could have been expelled. Lie about where you were after school. Lie about who you were on the phone with at 3 in the morning. Don't lie about being assaulted by specific people.

The parents needs to be investigated by CPS.

Are there more hate crime hoaxes now than ever before? Or is it about the same? What do you guys think?

I think with the invention of social media, we hear more about these cases than we normally would have. I also think with the invention of social media, everyone wants their 15 minutes of fame, and considering how much focus the Mainstream Media puts on racial diversity and racism, you may have a lot of people thinking in taking this approach to receive some type of recognition that they normally would never get in their every day lives.

I'm successful considering I started in the gutter.

And no excuses.

I used to be a piece of shit and it was all my fault.

There are refugees from Africa, Asia, and the Middle East that come here in a strange country, don't have a dime, don't know the language, and are the wrong skin color. They pull themselves up and succeed.

You may have started in the gutter but you still have every other advantage. You come up with plenty of excuses. You are still a loser piece of shit, just own it.
