In a powerful and eye-opening Facebook reel, Judge Faith Jenkins and R&B singer Kenny Lattimore are sounding the alarm on a disturbing trend: foreign-operated YouTube channels posing as Black creators to spread lies, hate, and misinformation about Black public figures. Their message is clear—Black communities must be vigilant about the content we consume and share online.

The couple, who recently filed a lawsuit against anonymous YouTubers for defamation, revealed that their investigation uncovered a network of channels—some based overseas in countries like Russia, India, and Pakistan—using AI-generated content, fake court documents, and fabricated stories to profit from drama and division. These channels don’t just spread rumors; they weaponize misinformation to manipulate emotions, trigger outrage, and undermine trust within the Black community.

Jenkins and Lattimore’s experience is a stark reminder of how easily digital spaces can be exploited. Their legal battle highlights the growing risks of AI, fake news, and online harassment, especially when targeted at Black voices. As Jenkins, a former prosecutor and TV judge, put it: “Some went as far as referencing non-existent court documents, fabricated judicial rulings, and using AI to manufacture lies. This is not only harmful—it is unlawful.”

This isn’t just about one couple’s fight for justice—it’s a wake-up call for all of us. The internet has given everyone a platform, but not everyone uses it responsibly. Before you like, share, or believe what you see, ask yourself: Who’s behind this content? What’s their motive? And is this really the truth?

A Quiet Fishing Trip Turned Into a Legal Nightmare—Then Things Got Worse

What started as a peaceful afternoon on Lake Shirley for Sheron Brown and his 10-year-old daughter quickly devolved into a scene of racial hostility that has shocked the Lunenburg community.

The story began last May on Lake Shirley in Lunenburg, MA. Competitive fisherman Sheron Brown was out on a boat with his young daughter, Azaylia, enjoying the day on th public waterway, until their peace was interrupted by 67-year-old David McPartlan who began yelling from his property, claiming they "shouldn't be fishing there."

The situation escalated quickly with McPartlan hurling a large rock toward the boat and followed it with a barrage of racial slurs. The entire incident was captured on video which help in getting McPartlan arrested but that wasn't the last the Brown's would hear of McPartlan.

According to court records, McPartlan allegedly attempted to take things further by trying to bribe one of his own employees to find the family's home and use a sledgehammer to destroy the Brown's boat's engine. When the employee refused to participate in the retaliatory scheme, McPartlan reportedly fired him. 

The details of how this case moved from a lakeside dispute to a high-stakes criminal retaliation plot are truly disturbing. It raises a major question: How far can hate go before the system truly intervenes?
