A mother is facing jail time after yelling at her daughter to hit another girl during a basketball game in a caught-on-video incident in Garden Grove last month, the Orange County District Attorney announced Thursday.
The mother, 44-year-old Latira Shonty Hunt of La Puente, was in the stands on Nov. 7 watching her teenage daughter compete in a youth basketball game, when she allegedly yelled “you better hit her for that” after her daughter had an interaction with a rival player on the court.
Viral video shows her daughter then sucker punching the other player, a 15-year-old girl, in the face. The girl collapses on the court following the “unprovoked attack,” officials said.
Hunt was charged with one misdemeanor count of contributing to the delinquency of a minor and one misdemeanor count of battery, according to the DA’s office.
She faces a maximum sentence of one year in Orange County Jail if convicted on all counts.

Savages.
I bet she and her daughter don’t learn anything from this - they’ll just hate white people all the more.
Sounds like the entire family could use it they trained her.
I think you might be correct. If someone pushes or slaps someone else, that’s a battery. If the victim loses consciousness it is supposed to be a felony.
I missed the part of the girl being Asian. But what should really angry people is that the incident didn’t seem to be fully handled by the officials when it happened. The girl’s mother didn’t find out about it until other players tipped her off and showed her the video.
just sue baby, sue.....the puncher and her “mother” have money....the victim should take it.
“Family”, mm hmm. O-kay...we’ll go with that.
You misspelled jail
I encouraged my daughter to quit volleyball because of the abuse from the team and coach and all the injuries. Then after abusing her, they got really mad when she quit. It was ridiculous. The urgent care doctor knew her by name.
