Is this an isolated incident or is race-baiting the new normal? What impact will such incidences have on race relations in this country?

Kayla-Simone McKelvey, 24, of Union – a black alum who graduated in May – was charged by summons with third-degree creating a false public alarm.
Park said an investigation by the Union County Prosecutor's Office's Special Prosecutions Unit and Kean University police found that McKelvey, a self-proclaimed activist, participated in a student rally to raise awareness of racism on college campuses on Nov. 17, but left midway through and walked to a computer station in a university library. Once there, McKelvey allegedly created an anonymous Twitter account – @keanuagainstblk – and began posting threats of violence against black Kean students.

I would recommend public shaming to the Nth degree. A whirlwind of public condemnation to hurt her tender feelings.
Then, expulsion from the school, with her academic record reflecting the reasons she failed every class this semester.
This kind of bull$#!t distracts from the very real issues that exist out there. Making stuff up to drum up attention is pretty beyond the pale.
