ROBESON COUNTY, N.C. (WPDE) -- A 13-year-old murder suspect escaped custody in Robeson County Tuesday. The Robeson County Sheriff's Office says the juvenile, identified only by the North Carolina Dept. of Public Safety as Jericho W., was in court around noon, appearing on the charges of two counts of first-degree murder and robbery with a dangerous weapon. The juvenile is described as a Native American male with brown eyes and brown hair who stands 5-feet tall and weighs about 110 pounds. He was last seen wearing a white t-shirt and beige pants. He had on leg restraints and no shoes, authorities say. He was last seen in the intersection of Highway 72 and Country Club Road in Lumberton.
NCDPS says they have a "high degree of concern for the safety of both the juvenile and the public, due to a prior history of assaultive and unpredictable behavior." If you have any information on his whereabouts, you're asked to call the Sheriff's Office at 910-671-3170.
Sorry I meant to put NC in title. Can an admin do that?
Thanks
Wow...13 years old. Good grief.
Done...
Our own "native Americans" seem to stem from Asia, having all the DNA of their ancient ancestors. Ancient = 40k years ago.
Maybe he's a mixture of African and Asian, who crossed the Bering Strait so long ago.
In a class I had a LONG time ago we had visitors from Japan. They spotted a black girl and said that "she's part Korean."
After class I asked the girl and she said that her GRANDMOTHER was Korean. I never had a clue but those visitors spotted her.
He doesn’t look Native American to me????.
The mostly Cherokee in North Carolina have distinctive features....
...I suppose he could be mixed African American/Native American
Just sayin
was going to say is Native American the new amish? He’s not Native American.
Got it.
40% of Robeson county identify as Lumbee Indian. Lumbee is an NC state recognized tribe, not federal.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumbee
If Elizabeth Warren had a son....
Did some people just make this name up??? He does not look native American.
In the 1950s, Lumbees clashed with the KKK, over accusations of race mixing. Reading the entry on wiki or researching online will answer your questions.
Lumbees are a state recognized Indian group in NC. They are not new.
There have been attempts to get them tribal status from the federal government.
Thank you
Thank you for the link posting. I was going to get it and post.
The article has lots of info/history of the Lumbee tribe.
Ask Giovanni da Verrazzano what he saw in 1524 what is now known as North Carolina
I think some research is in order from people on this page before making assumptions about who was here before who in this country.
Blacks are have been here long before the African supposed slavery time
So yes he is indigenous to this land
Mongolia had people who came assuming full rights as th 5 civilized tribes once 1865 freedman act was signed recognizing them as the only people native to this land and referring to indigenous blacks as African
That's how I learned it.
The point was that black people are indigenous to this America where it seems people on this thread were saying he couldn’t be native which by historical records isn’t true
