Y’all remember “Central Park Karen”, a.k.a. Amy Cooper, the white woman who called the cops on a Black man and falsely claimed he was threatening her?
Well on Monday her case was dismissed at a hearing in Manhattan Criminal Court. The prosecution asked a judge to dismiss one count of filing a false report against Cooper. The judge did just that.
This decision came after Cooper completed five sessions of an educational program that included instruction about racial biases.
Cooper made headlines last may after viral cell phone video showed her harassing a Black man named Christian Cooper, (no relation) in Central Park. Christian asked the woman to leash her dog. She was unhappy with his request and falsely called the police claiming he was threatening her.
Cooper lost her job shortly after the incident went viral.
