Racial profiling or ethnic profiling is the act of suspecting, targeting or discriminating against a person on the basis of their ethnicity, religion or nationality, rather than on individual suspicion or available evidence.
The victim described them as a black man about 5'4 w/ an accent. The DNA evidence confirms it was a black man.
Yes, it's not much to go on but it's not like they assumed "she was raped, was probably a nigger!"
She wasn't white. Which was cited as a justification for showing his reconstructed image.

They wouldn't have done a thing if the victim didn't rank higher on the victimology scale than the black perp.
It's not racial profiling you twat, it's literally reporting on the DNA left by the literal specific rapist.
If you want to argue the facial estimation is bullshit that's one thing, but the heritage is a fact.
I mean, it literally is.
"We're looking for a black guy" is not much to go on.

To be faaair, if a white woman gets raped in a major metropolitan area, it's fair to guess that a nigger did it.
