According to TMZ, Scott said the family has been receiving numerous alleged death threats. Apparently this voicemail is just one of hundreds of threatening messages. In the audio recording, a woman called and threatened to hang Alaina if she ever caught her on the University of Mississippi campus again.

As we previously shared, Alaina ended up withdrawing from Ole Miss after she and two other White students walked past the door of Black student, Jakiyra Metcalf and her two roommates, Kaiyden Caldwell and Victoria G. Johnson. On November 6, Alaina beat on her chest and made monkey noises into the camera.

A second woman, identified online as Lauren Mayfield, made monkey noises as well, and the third woman, identified as Sarah Whitehead, smiled and walked behind them. Metcalf filed a complaint with the school, which launched an investigation.

“Throughout this week, Alaina and her family have faced intense harassment and threats of violence. At the same time, they are deeply troubled by fake fundraising campaigns circulating online about this incident, as well as the vitriol directed at Jakiyra, Victoria and Kaiyden. Alaina hopes that the hate and hostility will cease and that the Ole Miss community can begin to heal and move forward in unity and peace.”
