Emory University Hospital Brushes Off Dennis McKinley False Arrest Claims

This week The Real Housewives of Atlanta's Porsha Williams' baby daddy Dennis Mckinley accused an Emory University Hospital security officer of falsely accusing him of stealing a $4 sandwich and injuring his wrists while detaining him for over 30 min [click here if you missed that].

Emory University downplays the incident...

Reps for Emory tell Us Weekly,

“an Emory Police Department officer detained an individual suspected of not paying for an item. Once the officer learned the individual had purchased it, he was released.”

Dennis lit into Emory after the statement was released.

WOW THIS IS WHAT EMORY @emorypolice TOLD @usweekly ...that it? @miketsterling responds I’m at a loss for words 👉🏽“Emory’s response is clearly the response of privilege. The privilege of someone completely out of touch with the reality of what that harrowing experience was like for Dennis. It is a response that does not recognize the pain and anguish of being profiled, despite your personal accomplishments and standing in society; they don’t understand what it’s like to be viewed as a criminal for no reason at all, except how you look; they don’t understand what it’s like to be falsely accused of something you did not do; publicly humiliated for no reason at all; handcuffed like a criminal; detained without provocation; and completely frightened to death that you could be shot by an overly aggressive police officer over a $4 sandwich. Are you kidding me Emory. This type of indifference by Emory just made the experience all the more painful. This is shameful.“ #goingtothedoctorwhileblack #Emory
