Koeberle-Bull

Last week, Koeberle Bull, a widow with three biracial children, claims she woke up to a disturbing message on Facebook from a man she didn’t know. “[He was] basically repeating himself about hoping my children would die and be hung because they’re black,” BulltoldWKYT.

“It was definitely racially motivated, ‘you and your monkey children’ and using the ‘n’ word a lot,” Bull explained to the television station adding that the man had a gun in his profile picture.

Afraid for her and her family’s life, Bull called 911 thinking the man was in New Jersey. However, she soon found out after doing research that the man lived in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky, WKYT reported.

“Something in the back of my head was like this isn’t right, like something’s not sitting well,” Bull told WKYT explaining her reason for taking action.
