Description: "00/00/2001: Brothers Nathan Rehberg, 20, and Justin Rehberg, 19 were charged with inciting hatred and criminal harassment after an interracial couple experienced a cross burning on the lawn of their home. Michelle Lyon and Shayne Howe, a black man, reported hearing someone shout, “Die, Nigger, die,” before his daughter saw a 2-metre cross burning on the family’s lawn with a noose hanging from it. The suspects are distant cousins of Lyon."
