Virginia woman says neighbor's racist taunts include speakers playing slurs, monkey noises

A Black woman in Virginia alleges that a neighbor plays monkey noises and racial slurs over speakers to taunt her family from inside his home, but authorities say there's little they can do about it.

The woman, Jannique Martinez, says her family and other neighbors have been harassed in her Virginia Beach neighborhood for more than a year, NBC affiliate WAVY of Norfolk reported.

"Whenever we would step out of our house, the monkey noises would start. It's so racist, and it's disgusting. ... I don't even know how else to explain it," Martinez said.

NBC News could not immediately reach her for comment Thursday.

…question. I place great value on civility and dignity, and am constantly surprised/distressed by how many low class people we have in our country. Not even low class - no class.
