Teens who attended an Orange County party this weekend that included Nazi symbolism purportedly had this to say: “I want to express my deepest remorse and regret,” “I made a poor decision,” “I am so sorry.” Here's what we know.
A parent, who asked not to be identified, released handwritten letters of apology Monday about the same time a huge crowd gathered to denounce the anti-Semitism that had roiled the Newport Beach and Costa Mesa communities since images from the party went viral Sunday.
In Costa Mesa, the mother of two students who went to the party said she was “very upset” about their presence. Her anger and sadness, she said, stem from the fact that she and her family are Jewish. Newport-Mesa Unified School District officials were working to discover who attended the party and had a role in the incident to determine a potential course of action. But because the party took place off-campus on a weekend, it’s unclear what disciplinary actions the district can take under the law.
“White people stay together, Mexicans stay together. We naturally just do it because we know that’s the way it is,” she said. Fellow senior Timothy Shannon said, “Most people are trying to figure out ways to better ourselves out of it.”MORE: Anti-Semitic incidents are surging across the U.S. Here are the numbers »The fallout from the Costa Mesa party comes as anti-Semitic incidents at schools and colleges are on the rise, nearly doubling in 2017 from 2016, according to theIn 2017, K-12 schools surpassed public areas as the places with the most reports of anti-Semitic incidents.
