Recent social media posts are at the center of a federal libel lawsuit. A Texas businesswoman is suing Black Lives Matter Sacramento for libel.
She claims the group and/or their leader Tanya Faison posted an email on social media bearing her name that was filled with racists remarks.
"I am sick and tired of hearing about you guys on the news," an image of the email with Crowley's name on it says. The email, which contains profanity, ends with the words "white lives matter."
Karra Crowley insists it wasn't her.
"That is not my email," Crowley said. "It appears to be recently created. There's no ties to social media, no ties to a phone number, another email address. There's no ties to who it is."
Crowley is a Texas resident who spends time in California. She said she had no idea about the posts until her assistant told her about it last week.
"[I was] shocked. It was just disbelief. There's no words," Crowley said.
Crowley told KCRA 3 that after reading the post and the comments, she did send an email to Black Lives Matter Sacramento and leader Tanya Faison telling them someone was using her identity to create the email account and send the racists messages.
Crowley asked them to remove the post.
Instead of a response to her, she said they posted to Facebook claiming that her information was verified and it was Crowley.
