  • An image shared on Facebook allegedly shows Samuel Paty, a teacher recently beheaded in France, holding a Refugees Welcome sign. Verdict: False The man in the photo has been misidentified. The pictured man appears to be British playwright and Good Chance co-founder Joe Robertson. Fact Check: The image features three individuals – two women and one man – holding signs with the message Refugees Welcome. The caption suggests that the man in the middle was the beheading victim. I’ll also remind you that the one in the middle was beheaded by a refugee, reads the text accompanying the photo. Look up Teacher in France beheaded by refugee.

Paty, a history and geography teacher, was decapitated Oct. 16 in a Paris suburb after showing caricatures of Islam’s Prophet Muhammad to his class, according to The Associated Press . The suspect, who was killed by police, was an 18-year-old Russian-born Chechen refugee, according to NBC News . However, the image being shared doesn’t show Paty.
