White Couple Charged with Assault After Viral Video Shows Pregnant Woman Defending Herself

A white Oakland County, Michigan couple were charged with felony assault on Thursday after a video of a pregnant woman defending herself from a black woman with a firearm went viral.

Oakland County Prosecutor Jessica Cooper charged Jillian Wuestenberg , 32, and Eric Wuestenberg, 42, each with one count of felonious assault, a four-year felony, the Detroit News reported.

Oakland County Prosecutor Jessica Cooper charged Jillian Wuestenberg, 32, and Eric Wuestenberg, 42, each with one count of felonious assault, a four-year felony. The Independence Township couple each possessed one loaded firearm and CPL licenses, Sheriff Mike Bouchard said.

The couple was arraigned Thursday at 52-3 District Court in Rochester Hills.

Both were given a $50,000 personal bond.

“As part of the bond conditions, they must turn over all firearms, not engage in any assaultive behavior, and may not leave the state,” sheriff’s officials said.

The incident stemmed from a bump and lack of apology, according to Bouchard.

“Let’s have a little more tolerance for each other and not being so quick to react,” Bouchard said. “If someone is doing something improper or unfair, I tell my family and friends to look away. This is not the moment to plant your flag.”

A white couple leaving a Chipotle restaurant this week were falsely accused of racism by a black woman and her 15-year-old daughter.

The black woman accused a pregnant white woman of bumping into her daughter near the e

ntrance of the restaurant and demanded an apology.

The white woman tried to deescalate the confrontation by peacefully walking away and got into her car as the black woman called her a “dumbass bitch.”

The black woman then turned her ire toward white woman’s husband and threatened him: “And if you say something I’ll beat your white ass too.”

As the white couple backed up their vehicle to leave the parking lot, the black woman rushed behind the SUV to block them from leaving and accused them of ‘trying to hit her.’

The black woman pounded on the vehicle and threatened to beat them.

This is when the confrontation escalated.

The white woman got out of the car and pulled out her firearm after being assaulted and threatened, “Get the f*ck away!” she screamed. “Back the f*ck up!”

Eric Wuestenberg was fired from his job at Oakland University following the incident.

“We have seen the video, and we deem his behavior unacceptable.” the university said in a statement.

The couple should post bail, move to Utah or Idaho, and claim asylum.

“So black people can assault with no penalty, but if white people defend themselves from assault by black people they will be charged with a felony?”

That’s the plan and what they’ve been working on for the last few years. Not just blacks, either. Ever hear of this:

“Four Antifa members involved in the fight were never identified, but 10 Proud Boys members and associates were ultimately arrested and charged.”

The Proud Boys we’re defending themselves.The prosecution didn’t even have victims!

It is outrageous, but unfortunately, it might be the law. Yes, this couple was being threatened and harassed. Amazing how they kept their cool. Unfortunately, the problem may be that she exited the car after getting into it.

Something similar happened to me years ago. Once inside my car, I called 911 and did not exit the car again. Afterward, I looked into the law: If I’d gotten back out of the car with a firearm to chase this raving lunatic off, for example, the law would’ve considered me the aggressor.

Hope the charges are dropped. By the way, notice how the other woman wasn’t afraid of the gun. The same for the Marxists rioting who don’t seem afraid of guns. They scream that these people are racist killers, yet they apparently trust these people not to shoot them.

If this continues, at some point things are going to get tough for both ends of the bell curve.

Since we’ve already “nutted” the police, low IQ jerks with chips on their shoulders will be increasingly subjected the threat of hot lead injections by otherwise law abiding citizens.

And on the other end of the spectrum - zealous left wing prosecutors and judges take note! Tar, feathers and pitchforks are all readily available at the local ranch supply store.

It’s all fun and games for mama till her 15 year old daughter gets to film her getting blown away.

Life tends focus your priorities that way sometimes when you are a raging ass.

Yes, if a black person has their phone out, it is a pretty good bet that a setup is involved. My advice - stay away from them, and don't engage them if they start acting like idiots (which is inevitable).

Sorry about that. I am embarrassed. I saw your post and and on down the thread saw a picture with the name you mentioned. And for some unknown reason associated the name and picture with the victim. I join you in wishing that. The sooner the better,

Doesn’t have to be a black person; plenty of evidence of people of all races doing it. Remember, much of Antifa is white and no few of them like setting up people for the purposes of cancel culture. If someone has their phone out while provoking you, it’s a setup. Start videoing them immediately, leave the area, do not engage and call the police if you catch something on *your* video if you feel is threatening.
