BREAKING NEWS Baton-wielding track star breaks silence on shocking footage of her hitting opponent during race
Daily Mail UK ^ | March 10, 2025 | Daniel Matthews

The track star seen hitting her opponent in the head with a baton in a shocking incident has remarkably claimed it was an accident.

The indoor track championships in Virginia were marred when Alaila Everett was seen striking Kaelen Tucker during the 4x200m relay event of the VSHL Class 3 State Indoor Championships.

Tucker was running the second leg of the relay for Lynchburg's Brookville High School when she passed Tucker of I.C. Norcom High School on the outside.

Everett, who claimed she has since been on the receiving end of death threats and racial slurs, broke down in tears as she gave her version of events on the viral incident.

She told Wavy.com: 'I know my intentions and I would never hit someone on purpose.'

She added: 'After a couple times of hitting her, my baton got stuck behind her back like this, and it rolled up her back. I lost my balance and, when I pumped my arms again, she got hit.'

Everett insisted there is more to her - and the incident - than first appears in the short clip. 'They are assuming my character, calling me ghetto and racial slurs, death threats,' she said. 'All of this off of a nine-second video.'

She added: 'Everybody has feelings, so you’re physically hurt, but you’re not thinking of my mental (health).

Gasps were heard inside the Liberty Indoor Track Complex as Tucker stumbled and then fell to the ground.

We need serious baton control. It’s for the children.

When running to raise your hand and baton high above your head will detract from your stride and speed. She is lying.

I had some YouTube videos come across my feed featuring that demographic showing assaults, traffic stops and shoplifting.

Even when that demographic is on video showing their faces, lawbreaking and behavior, they will LIE LIE LIE, SCREAM AND SOB HYSTERICALLY thinking if they are belligerent enough, earnest enough or if they beg and cry enough that they can change reality.

The cherry on top is when they claim they were injured during an arrest and scream they are going to sue.

“”This stuff happens quite often. After watching the video, i tend to believe the girl with the baton.””

This is exactly why we should get rid of jury pools.

If you deliberately hit someone IN A SPORTING EVENT you deserve all the threats you can receive.
You are trash. Go away.

“Everett, who claimed she has since been on the receiving end of death threats and racial slurs...”

She should be on the receiving end of an arrest for aggravated assault and attempted murder. She should be in jail right now.

Some angles look inconclusive, but the last one leaves no doubt.

" 'They are assuming my character, calling me ghetto and racial slurs, death threats,' she said. 'All of this off of a nine-second video.' "

?? Not sure what she means, nobody wants to assume the "character" of this person and her lack of impulse control. A person's action at one moment in time exposes character, and this exposed hers, or, her lack of character. There is no question to the fact that Alaila Everett pulled her arm back and struck Kaelen Tucker. This was no accident.

There is nothing to explain and she is sorry for herself. Aliala is Aliar and a Cryer.

"'I didn’t have to see a first video, second video or tenth video. I know 100percent that she would never do that to nobody,' Zeketa Cost said."

I suspect Aliala Mommie waving her white cane around as she shouted this.

It was an accident like all of those friends of Hillary committing suicide with three shots to the back of the head.

Exactly the wrong attitude. Own it, ask for forgiveness.

How do you miss passing the wand to another person’s hand, and end up cracking their skull open?

It goes back to the physics rule that says “two things cannot occupy the same place, at the same time.”

I’m not buying her whining. It’s part of the sport. But, the inbred racism around her doesn’t let facts get in their way.

Whining? Is this the Democrat term for blatantly lying?
