“A Winnsboro woman who was attacked and set afire on Sunday has sustained burns over 60-percent of her body, her family says. Sharmeka Moffitt, 20, remains in critical condition and is expected to undergo surgery Tuesday. A biopsy also is planned in addition to the surgery, said Moffitt’s mother, Edna Moffitt.

“They want to take the dead skin off and place other skin there if they can,” Edna Moffitt said. The family spoke to reporters Monday afternoon at LSU Hospital. Edna Moffett said her daughter, who is in LSU’s burn center, could be hospitalized for a month or longer.

Edna Moffitt said the family was shocked by the attack. “I have never know anything like this to happen in Winnsboro,” Edna Moffitt said. Moffitt was walking on a Civitan Park trail at about 8 p.m. Sunday when she was attacked by three men wearing hoodies, according to investigators.

Her vehicle was painted with a racial slur and the letters “KKK,” her family said. Moffitt, who called 911 to report the attack, was unable to identify the persons responsible. The FBI is investigating whether the attack was a hate crime, Winnsboro Police Chief Kevin Cobb said.

The investigation is a collaboration between several law enforcement agencies including Winnsboro Police Department and Franklin Parish sheriff’s office. Authorities have not identified any suspects or made any arrests in the case. Return to this site later today as more information on this story becomes available.”

THEY SET HER ON FIRE AND SPRAY PAINTED KKK ON HER CAR WHAT THE FUCK ELSE DO YOU NEED?!?!

Nothing is racist until they say it is. Fuck it wasn’t even slavery until they decided to say it was.

This is some shit.

I just…this was an attempted lynching. Calling it a hate crime is already cleaner language than this crime deserves. OMFG.
