Ben Carson’s past called into question again as friends doubt claims he hid white classmates during race riots after MLK assassination

More stories from Ben Carson’s past have been called into question, including a harrowing tale of how he sheltered his white classmates during Detroit race riots, a day after the GOP candidate called reporters “desperate” for probing 1996 autobiography.

A fiery Carson blasted the media Friday after reports questioned the validity of his book, “Gifted Hands,” specifically suggesting he may have lied about earning a scholarship to West Point and embellished stories about his violent outbursts as a child and teenager.

“There's got to be a scandal. There's got to be some nurse he's had an affair with. There's got to be something.' They have gotten desperate,” Carson told reporters Friday night, according to CNN. “Next week, it will be my kindergarten teacher who said I peed in my pants. It's ridiculous.”
