#BBB NEWS| WTF!! WATCH: Horrific Footage Show Two White South African Men Force A Black Man Into A Coffin [PHOTO/VIDEO]

Willem Oosthuizen and Theo Martins Jackson, two white men, appeared in a South African court Wednesday (Nov. 16) where they faced charges of kidnapping and assault with intent to do grievous bodily harm after footage showcased them forcing a black man into a coffin.

According to The Washington Post, the victim, Victor Mlotshwa, was walking one day when Oosthuzien and Jackson accused him of trespassing on a ranch. Before Mlotshaw could run away, the men forced him into a nearby coffin. As one man recorded the heartless and degrading incident, another threatened to pour gasoline on Mlotshwa and set him on fire.

In a short clip shared on Twitter by one of South Africa’s main political parties, one of the men can be seen forcing Mlotshaw’s head in the coffin as Mlotshaw begs for mercy. It’s unclear what happened afterwards, or how Mlotshaw was able to escape. However, with the video resurfacing nearly three months after the incident, (and being removed from YouTube) Mlotshaw now has a chance to pursue law with actual proof.

My friends, it’s looking like our dreams of another President Obama aren’t very likely. FLOTUS shut down the possibility of a Presidential run during an event for homeless Veterans in Washington D.C.. During her speech, a member of the audience yelled “run for President!” to which Mrs. Obama responded: “You be quiet back there.” She said it pretty seriously in tone, too, before chuckling.
