Let's say you are correct, then the other 16 cases are correct and were hoaxes. And the other two police arrests were also racism hoaxes, 17-1.

Houston Police: Teen's story about being abducted by white supremacists wasn't true
HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) --
Houston police say there is no evidence to support the claims made by a teenager that white supremacists abducted him, injured him and threatened him.
We first brought you this story last month when 13-year-old Zavion Parker claimed he was grabbed by an adult and four young men after stepping off his school bus.
Zavion alleges he was robbed and beaten, all because of his race. He also said he was held at a property at gunpoint until he was able to escape.
Michelle Lee, the teen's mother, told Eyewitness News her son managed to escape the gun-wielding kidnappers.
"The reason why they got him was because they said he was black. 'You deserve to die.' Exactly his words," Lee told ABC13 in May. "Saying the dad had, like, a white muscle shirt on, and you could see it, was right here big as day. 'I hate black people.'"But after a thorough investigation, the Houston Police Department now says the events as described did not occur, that the property Parker described had nothing to do with any crime.
Investigators have met with both the child's mother and community activists. They told them their findings.
We reached Lee on the phone on Monday, but she did not want to comment.
HPD says they will not be filing charges against anyone involved in what was essentially a false report.
On Eyewitness News at 6 p.m., you'll hear from a longtime resident of the street where Parker said he was abducted and why he never believed the story. -
Woman fabricated story about being victim of Trump-related hate crime, police say
BALDWIN, N.Y. —
A woman has been taken into custody after police say she fabricated a story about a Trump-related hate crime on New York's Long Island.
On Friday, Adwoa Lewis, 19, gave detectives a written statement stating she was driving home on Sept. 2 when four teenagers confronted her, police said.
Lewis alleged the teens yelled “Trump 2016!” and said she didn’t belong here.
She further claimed she parked her car in front of her house, and when she woke up, she found a slashed tire and a note on her car that stated, “Go home,” according to police.
An investigation into the alleged incident revealed Lewis had fabricated the story and no such altercation took place.
Police said Lewis later admitted she wrote the note and placed it on her car.
She was taken into custody and faces charges of making a false punishable written statement.

I'm gonna assume the same abuses happen at the "can purchase a plane" level but I have seen more than a few bosses buy a really nice truck with company money, put a small sticker on it to call it advertising, use it for their own use, and use it as a tax write off.
Yup, contractors and sales reps do it all the time.

It's all good. What a lot of people don't understand is that the "write-off" is not dollar for dollar. It simply reduces your taxable income, which if you do the math, it comes out to your tax rate... or the company's rate.
