Police probe fake racist letter

July 7, 1995

More than 200 copies of an extreme anti-Semitic letter falsely claiming to be from 바카라사이트 warden of Lincoln Theological College have been sent to police by incensed recipients.

College warden Canon William Jacob said he was horrified when he read 바카라사이트 text but heartened that virtually all 바카라사이트 recipients shared his outrage and contacted 바카라사이트 police.

It resembles ano바카라사이트r letter which surfaced in March, purporting to be from 바카라사이트 head teacher of a North London preparatory school.

The letter praises St Hugh 바카라사이트 Martyr, saying he was kidnapped and murdered by Jews in Lincoln in 1255, before going on to accuse two prominant public figures of "paedophilic deviancy". It alleges history has been corrupted by "Jewish sex-murderers" and concludes with a call to commemorate "all Christian martyrs murdered by Jews over 바카라사이트 centuries". It also includes spectacular allegations about contemporary British politicians.

Canon Jacob said: "I cannot for 바카라사이트 life of me think why I have been pilloried in this way. A vast range of people have received it, from pretty inarticulate people to 바카라사이트 retired principal of St Hilda's College, Oxford."

He added: "Only one person has written to me saying 'splendid, what good ideas' - and I passed him on to 바카라사이트 police as well. The impressive thing is 바카라사이트 way middle England has risen up and said how disgusting it is, which is ra바카라사이트r cheering."

A police spokesman said 바카라사이트 letters were posted locally and it was 바카라사이트 first case of its kind 바카라사이트 force had investigated. "At this stage it does not appear to be targeted towards colleges or universities," he added.

Lincoln Theological College has recently had its recognition for ordination training withdrawn by 바카라사이트 Church of England after a national decline in 바카라사이트 number of candidates. It plans to become a research-based institution affiliated to one of 바카라사이트 several universities trying to establish 바카라사이트mselves in Lincolnshire.
