Victim was reportedly punched while trying to call 911
A South Florida anesthesiologist is facing a hate crime charge, as well as other charges, after she attacked a Hispanic man who asked her to maintain social distancing inside a Publix, authorities said.
According to her arrest report, the incident occurred Jan. 20 at the Publix at 155 E. Second Ave. in Hialeah, News 6 partner Local 10 reports.
Police said the victim was checking out when Dr. Jennifer Susan Wright, 58, of Miami Springs, began setting down her groceries.
Authorities said the victim first asked Wright in Spanish to keep a proper distance from her, but she ignored him so he repeated the request in English.
According to the arrest report, the man was then loading his groceries in his car when Wright came up behind him in the parking lot and then got within 1 foot of his face.
The victim told officers that he asked Wright again to not be so close to him, which enraged her.
Below are some of the comments Wright made to the victim, according to the arrest report:
“You (expletive) (racial slur).”
“You piece of (expletive).”
“We should have gotten rid of you when we could.”
“We should have burned you all.”
“This is not going to be your Biden’s America. This is my America.”
“This is my country, and we are going to get rid of every single one of you.”
According to the arrest report, Wright also scratched the victim’s car with her keys as the victim repeatedly told her to stay away from his vehicle.
She also stabbed the car with her keys while telling the victim that he needed to go back to his country, the report stated.
Police said Wright caused $567.64 worth of damage to the trunk of the victim’s car and the rear passenger-side door.
According to the arrest report, the incident didn’t stop there and Wright punched the victim in the face as he took out his phone to call 911.
Police said she also stomped on the phone after it fell to the ground in an attempt to prevent the victim from calling authorities.
Police said she then fled in a green Jeep Wrangler.
She was taken into custody Friday on charges of battery with prejudice, tampering with a victim and criminal mischief.
She has since been released on bond.
According to doctor.webmd.com, Wright is affiliated with Mount Sinai Medical Center.
The Miami Herald reported that Wright is known in her neighborhood as a “fervent Trump supporter,” who during the Halloween season “erected a sinister-looking mannequin made to look like Joe Biden, with a sign that read ‘Expose the Biden Crime Family.’”
She also expressed her views on her Facebook page through various posts and memes, including one post that read, “It’s Okay To Be White.” Her Facebook page appears to have been taken down following her arrest.
Good old “free,” conservative Florida….
According to the arrest report, the man was then loading his groceries in his car when Wright came up behind him in the parking lot and then got within 1 foot of his face.
Sounds like Jesse Smolett to me.
So there are crazies on both sides but the midstream media ignores the crazies on the left.
Oh yeah... she gets a hate crime charge.
But BLM can burn down while grocery stores and demand Trump supporters be murdered and they get fawning press and no criminal charges.
BS.
Who?
Anesthesiologists behaving (VERY) badly!
She needs a sedative and a lawyer.
I know Publix has parking lot cameras. Let’s go to the tape.
It was incredibly stupid on her part, especially when you consider it was in Hialeah. It’s not a good idea down on the southeast coast of Florida to be dissing Hispanics in public places.
That French guy.
“According to doctor.webmd.com, Wright is affiliated with Mount Sinai Medical Center.”
Probably not much longer though
Agreed. In Biden’s ILLEGITIMATE World I don’t believe this unless someone has a video of it with CLEAR AUDIO that hasn’t been tampered with.
I don't know any state where punching people and keying cars are conservative values.
Sounds like she was liquored up.
My brother-in-law is an anesthesiologist. They can be an arrogant lot but this one crossed the line.
Don’t try to spin it. The headline - “FACES HATE CRIME CHARGE”
Are government "hate crimes" conservative values?
What is she talking about? Hialeah is a Latin American country. The mayor doesn’t even speak English!
as long as they arrange for patients to wake up in this world and not the world to come I think I can take a little arrogance.
but this incident was just plain foolish.
The only time I was ever under for surgery, my anesthesiologist was a pleasant mellow older guy. We talked for a minute or two then woke up the next morning.
