Killer TV reporter sued another station for racism a decade before he was 'asked to leave' Virginia network amid claims of racial bias and murdered his co-workers live on air

The Daily Mail reports:
The 41-year-old who claimed responsibility for the on-air slayings of a Virginia TV reporter and her cameraman, had a track record of claiming racism in the workplace.

California native Vester Lee Flanagan II, who went by Bryce Williams when reporting the news on WDBJ7, sued a North Florida station in 2000 claiming one of his bosses called him a 'monkey,' among other offenses.

Before he killed Alison Parker and Adam Ward on Wednesday, Flanagan accused Parker of being racist as the horrific crime played out in real time.

'Alison made racist comments,' he insisted on Twitter, as police pursued him down a Virginia highway.


One , sad story.
