A sixth grade girl at Karen Pence's Christian school allegedly admits she made up her story about white boys cutting her dreadlocks
last week after claiming three white classmates forcefully cut off her dreadlocks has admitted she made up the story, according to statements from her family and the school.
Amari told CBS affiliate WUSA9 last week that the three boys covered her mouth, held her arms behind her back, taunted her and cut off her dreadlocks with scissors at recess. She reportedly didn't talk about the alleged event until a few days later, when her grandmother Cynthia Allen noticed her dreadlocks were short and uneven.
The school received national attention earlier this year when Karen Pence, the wife of Vice President Mike Pence, began working there as an art teacher.
