A law firm has completed its investigation into how a racist photo appeared on Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam's yearbook page 35 years ago, and is expected to release the results on Wednesday.

May 21, 2019

Eastern Virginia Medical School announced Tuesday that it plans a news conference and will make a written report of the investigation public. And he’s won praise from black lawmakers and others for several recent policy moves. Those include a halt to suspending the suspension of driver’s licenses for motorists with unpaid court fines and costs, and a review into how public schools teach our nation’s racial history.

The photo on Northam’s yearbook page was one of at least three blackface photos in the 1984 publication, which was reviewed by an Associated Press reporter. One of the others shows a man in blackface who is dressed up as a woman wearing a wig. A caption reads: ”‘Baby Love,’ who ever thought Diana Ross would make it to Medical School!”

Ugh, a Republican at the time of med school.

I’m not excusing him but that’s the South, it was 35 years ago and he was young. I did things I’m not proud of when I was young.

I won’t rest until I see this man moonwalk!!!

is this a bit

' A law firm ' ...👀

😂 This should be good...

I can think of a million better ways to spend the amount of money they used to 'investigate'.

Lol how did it get in the year book? Uhhh cus everyone was racist and thought it was funny pretty simple

Did someone explain how a camera works to them and a printing company? Seriously tax payer money was spent on this?

Will they blame the Russians?

What kind of scam are they cooking up? How do I already know this “report” is going to conclude that Northam wasn’t the KKK guy or the one wearing blackface?

Fake news is so good at making excuses! Look up the word truth and start practicing it!

The yearbook staff put them in and sent it to the presses. Case closed

We now go live to governor dickheads retort

“Investigation”.

The results will be redacted im sure !

Lemme guess.. Northam dindu nuffin

“Once upon a time there was a racist...”

Was Gov. Coonman the Klansman or the minstrel?

A law firm has completed its investigation into how something that happened in the past continued to exist into the future, such that humans could examine the past event and determine that yes, it happened.

'Those include a halt to suspending the suspension of driver’s licenses' I hate to be that one guy, but as a journalist I would really appreciate it if cleaned that phrasing up a little bit. Thanks!

I honestly thought this was The Onion. When I saw it was legit, I just laughed, hysterical.

Big mystery.

Law firm hired by the DNC?

TIME TRAVEL!

uhhhh

Will he resign now or does his democrat privilege still stand?

Law firm? Someone took the photo and put it in the yearbook, not a very hard concept. Or maybe, conservatives planted the picture in anticipation of needing it 35 years later?

Tf is this?

results of investigation: someone took a picture of Ralph Northam being extremely racist, and then the yearbook editor took that picture and reproduced it in the yearbook. GROUNDBREAKING

It turns out the Russians did it

Wtf ... We know how

watch the cover up. dems= corruption. look who their top criminal, errr, who was the ex-president of the dems: 0’ the trai_tor. lawlessness abounds when the USofA had a lawless, 0’, person planted as President. the citizens of the USofA are tired of the crimi_nal 0’. piggy imo

Can't wait to hear this lie. Thank god he resigned?

The same way any yearbook photos end up in yearbook?

Maybe they’ll catch the time traveling hackers that blogged under JoyAnnReid

How is this white privileged democrat still in office

Someone took the picture and put it into the year book. This really didn't need an investigation. What a waste of money

Their results: yes.

lol law firm investigates? THEY BROUGHT BACK PERRY MASON?

Ummm, because someone took that picture and someone put it in the yearbook.

Remember when all the Democrats were calling for reparations for black people? What happened to that?
