The Uber passenger charged with a hate crime for pepper spraying a Muslim driver in Manhattan is a former sorority girl who was fired from her PR job over the shocking incident.
Manhattan College graduate Jennifer Guilbeault, 23, had just started a promising career at a New York public relations firm when she was caught on dashcam springing forward to spray her rideshare driver in July, horrifying the pal who was with her.
However, her employer, D Pagan Communications in Melville, fired her over the shocking incident. Agency president Debra Pagan confirmed to PR Weekly that Guilbeault had left the firm, without saying when she left.
“We are aware of the actions of this former employee and we don’t condone this behavior,” the company, which specializes in PR for tech companies, said on X in August.
Guilbeault, a native of Northbridge, Mass. earned a bachelor’s degree in public relations, advertising and applied communication at the Bronx university, where she also served as the VP social chair for her sorority, Sigma Delta Tau, according to an online profile.
Glitzy photos posted to the Manhattan College chapter’s social media page show her and her sisters dressing up for formals and celebrating scholarships.

I’m guessing he stopped the car, said “Allahu akbar,” and she misinterpreted it as an imminent threat.

Another Masshole with well to do parents probably. Interesting how this crap happens again and again from that region of the country that considers themselves, “our betters”
Yeah... the way she climbed up over the seat to get at him was a clue. Very unladylike.
“However, being as objective as I think I can be, they were verbally abused by the driver in a way that was over the top about their affront to “Allah” because they were drinking alcohol.”
According to the article he had video of the whole event and never spoke a word to her before she attacked. And her friend with her was yelling for her to “stop”, “what are you doing”, and “why did you do that”? Her friend also had no clue why why sprayed him.
Sometimes a spoiled drunken bitch, is just a spoiled drunken bitch.
Looking at the video, my guess is that at some point after the pickup, he made a remark about their relatively scanty attire, which the gal sensed was the intro to trying to "take advantage" of them.
I say this because when she lurches forward with the mace, she is clearly furious.
I think the person here who said it was probably drugs, not booze, may be right.
There’s more to this story than what we (and her employer) know!
I hop she has a good lawyer!
If that were true, why would her friend be so shocked at her behavior?
Oh, that woman is an unhinged idiot and was clearly wrong.
But I was responding to Codeflier’s comments about Uber drivers harassing passengers (customers) about drinking alcohol. That’s not their place and people drinking alcohol helps Uber drivers make money.
College graduate
She could have disagreed with her friend about the egregiousness of whatever the Moslem's provocation was (if indeed there was one).
Just sayin': I'm old, and I've never seen a woman get physical that way at a stranger out of the blue--especially at a man--unless it was clear she was in serious danger.
I think she was strung out.
Italians who change their last names from “Pagano” to “Pagan” to sound less ethnic really need to rethink that.
Is pepper spray part of the 23 yo modern girl’s ensemble these days?
Hopefully Derringers make a comeback.
. earned a bachelor’s degree in public relations
She must have skipped the class when they taught about not doing anything that would reflect bad on the company they work for.
Definitely a Kamala voter.
