intrepid investigators at PatDollard.com found the mother of the cameraman, Ranika Wills, on the phone. She did not have many answers other than to say kids always fight. And she wondered why the reporter did not call George Zimmerman and ask him those questions.
Zimmerman, of course, is the man who was recently acquitted in the death of Trayvon Martin.
The mother claims the video was posted under a fake name. But she never denied it was her son. She also denied her son was holding a loaded gun in a picture on his Facebook page.
After telling the mother of the building outrage on the internet from people who saw the video, the mother said not to worry: "It's not like they f***** that little girl up," she said. "She's fine."
"It's a joke, he's just a kid," said the mother.
"What I seen was two little girls hitting her," said Ranika. "That's just what little girls do."
"I dealt with the kids," she said. "But kids fight. Know that."
The mother reserved her ire not for the assailants, but for the child her son threatened to kill on Facebook: "She is the one who put my phone number on Facebook. She is the one causing this problem."
