The suspect wanted for an ugly, racist rant in a New York City cab has come forward, and her identity is just as shocking as the hate she spewed.
Westchester County family facing deportation due to confusion over expiration date on paperwork
The question so many have been asking -- where is this woman from? And who is she?
Eyewitness News traced her face mask back to a performing arts theater in Woodstock.
On their website, there were posts from people claiming to know the suspect, saying they "will never speak to her again."
Multiple sources close to the investigation then confirmed to Eyewitness News that it was the suspect.
By Tuesday, she had deleted her social media accounts and multiple calls and emails to her went unanswered.
A disturbing trend of violence against Asian Americans continued after a grandmother from Westchester was attacked while walking on a sidewalk Tuesday night.
Several family members would not put us in touch with her either. Eyewitness News even tried to reach her at her home.
It turns out she lives near where the incident occurred on Sunday, at 22nd and First Avenue.
She is neighbors with her victims, but she isn't your ordinary neighbor. Her name is Maura Moynihan, the daughter of the late Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan.
She admitted to Eyewitness News on Wednesday, that she is the woman seen in the video.
She was seen at the unveiling of the Moynihan Train Hall back in January.
For the MTA, the new year started off with the grand opening of the $1.6 billion Moynihan Train Hall, which will replace the old Penn Station.
In a statement, Moynihan called the dispute a misunderstanding saying, "It had nothing whatsoever to do with any bias or racism or anti-Asian American prejudice, as has been wrongly suggested."
She says it was a dispute over a cab and denies hurling racist remarks.
"I have devoted most of my life to working with and for Asian people, most particularly in the cause of securing basic human rights for the Tibetan people in their continuing struggle against Communist China," Moynihan said.
Yet when confronted by the victim's husband, she didn't deny hurling a racist remark.
"Just because she's done all these things in the past does not justify what she said," Lee said.
By providing my email address, I agree to the Terms of Use and acknowledge that I have read the Privacy Policy.
Moynihan goes on to say she would be happy to meet with the couple to explain.
"What she said wasn't an apology. We don't accept they behavior at all, so I don't wanna meet her," Ha said. "Why would I meet her?"
"This is extremely hurtful. Like for me personally I was born in the U.S. my entire life and to be told to leave this country, to go back to Communist China is seriously offensive," Lee said. "I was born here, this is my home."
Police say the investigation is active and ongoing.
ouroboros They are eating themselves.
I’m a liberal, so don’t I get a pass???
This is puzzling. Where did all this come from? I am so dubious about the origin and any real motivation behind this. Something tells me that this is a kind of followup to the Democrats last False Flag, the so called “insurrection” on 1/6. This is very fishy, and I suspect that there is much more to come.
These people are either fatally race-obsessed, or think that their constituents are. I suspect also that those constituents might not be so stupid as to believe this rot. One can hope.
How do you know what she is?
If I were living in China, and some random pissed off Chinese dude told me to go back to the United States, not sure I’d be offended.
So what exactly is the problematic entitlement?
Choppy writing.
People get paid for this?
She’s Daniel Moynihan’s daughter. You think she’s one of us?
Racism is a valid self-defense mechanism.
Grow up in the ghetto like I did.
Why are the police involved? Does the First Amendment not apply here?
No Irish need apply.
Its called penance people. You can do any evil thing, as long as you do enough good, in your mind, to balance it out. That is why you can profess to believe in a religion that left its foundational truths and doctrines, along with its plainly written morality.
“The suspect wanted for an ugly, racist rant in a New York City cab...”
Wanted? It’s illegal to be rude and insulting?
I’ve seen interviews with her on the Epoch Times. She’s staunchly or Tibet and has been for many years. She hates the Chicoms.
must be a democrat, because I couldn’t find the party label anywhere in the article.
YEP & a BIGOT & HATER, too. = Typical DIMocRAT.
Yours, ex-cadet
Investigating what? An insult? Not defending some lousy dem, but what ever happened to free speech?
LOL, you reminded me of an incident when I was stationed in Germany. I lived in a small town on the Mosel River for 4 years, and spoke the language very well my last couple of years in country.
There was a small diner that served the best hamburgers I've ever eaten, and I usually stopped there a couple times a week. One night after work (I was wearing fatigues), I decided to eat in, and had a friendly conversation with the owner.
About 15 feet away, a couple of teens were loudly bitching about Americans, which caused discomfort to the owner. I replied, "alles klar", and continued with my meal.
As I was leaving, I walked over to those young men and said with a smile on my face, and in my best German, "you know, there are some Americans that think some Germans are a##holes."
The owner nearly fell off his chair, he was laughing so hard.
Hard to imagine a NYC cabbie being rude and insulting
