'Enough is enough,' Marysville father says of racist threats

MARYSVILLE — Before a crowd of more than 200 people Saturday afternoon, JJ Frank reiterated his call for Marysville School District leaders to resign in light of racist death threats targeting students.

Frank, the executive director of the Marysville YMCA, said he was speaking as a father.

He spoke for more than 20 minutes, about the pain he felt upon hearing his children were the target of death threats at school, and of his frustrations in dealing with the district.

In December, two boys reportedly talked openly about killing Black peers during a small online group. No felony charges were filed in that case, and the boys were referred to a diversion program after the prosecutor’s office consulted with the parents of a targeted classmate.
