Petitioner appeals from the final order of the West Virginia Human Rights Commission in favor of respondent in this administrative action alleging racial profiling. Petitioner seeks a reversal asserting that complainant failed to make a prima facie case of discrimination in a place of public accommodation; that complainants did not attempt to avail themselves of the services and privileges provided by petitioner; that the actions of petitioner did not deny complainants any such access or privileges; and that the actions of the Charleston police officers cannot be attributed to petitioner.
