“Saira Ali is a 19-year-old high school student from Avenel, New Jersey. In June, a classmate of hers posted a video of her on Snapchat without her consent.
According to Ali, the classmate wrote “ISIS” on the video and then set it as his Snapchat story.
She wrote about the incident on her Facebook at the time.
“You might think there’s no hate crime where you live and before you know it, some ignorant kid from your school makes a video of you at lunch, closes up on your face, calls you ISIS, and then sets it as his snapchat story for everyone to see as if he’s not insulting billions of people,” she wrote. “Please excuse me while I teach this kid a lesson.”
Ali reported the video to the Woodbridge Township School District. The school investigated the incident, as did the local police.”
