Investment VP/Portfolio Mgr fired for racial incident in Central Park

Amy Cooper is quite a piece of work ... :rolleyes:

Stalked ex-love interest and slammed him because he voted for Obama.

(More)
The white dog-walker, who called 911 on a black man when he asked her to leash her cocker spaniel in Central Park, allegedly stalked a former love interest and chided him for voting for President Barack Obama, The Post has learned.

Martin Priest, a former friend of Cooper who’s known her since 2003, claimed when he told her he voted for Obama, the first black president of the United States, she slammed his decision, saying she couldn’t “believe” it.

Priest claimed the asset manager developed romantic feelings for him and began “stalking” and “harassing” him when they went unrequited, leading him to report her to the police twice, once in New Jersey and once in New York City. The Post confirmed that reports were made in both jurisdictions.

“The longer I avoided her, the angrier she got,” Priest alleged.

The Post has made multiple attempts to contact Cooper about these allegations, including calling her, asking her doorman to relay a message and leaving messages for her previously retained attorneys. All requests have gone unanswered.

When I saw this on the news, it was so ridiculous that I wondered if the whole thing wasn't staged. Surreal. But real. I can only think that there is something 'wrong' with that woman and hope that the dog is in a better place (away from her). Her antics could have caused such harm to that poor man if the police bought into her wild story. Apparently, as he was rational and armed with video and she was acting bonkers, it was resolved without potentially serious incidents. Personally, I'm glad she got her comeuppance. This was a truly shameful example of what is wrong in this country. "Liar, liar, pants on fire." Well - she got justifiably burned, in my opinion.
 

In case anyone hasn't noticed...these type of events are happening all too often in this country. Some don't make major news.
Being approached by white people and asked why you are [wherever you are]
~While at the pool with your family at the Air BnB you rented
~At the lounge area at the fitness room for employees of the building's businesses that you and your colleagues have access to
~Entering your own home in a mostly white neighborhood

While it's obvious the victim of her craziness is a gentleman I don't know if I could be so forgiving. She actually said she would tell the police she feared for her life. If the wrong police officer had come...this could have ended in tragedy. Maybe she needs to be locked up for awhile...seems to me she's a danger to herself and others. I was glad to see she lost her cushy job....sorry! But she should have known by now that these things go viral (especially if you can see you're being filmed) and companies do not want to be affiliated with people who do this stuff.

Thank you for posting the story about her other transgressions Applecruncher. I'm going to share it with one of my friends who is very aware and very sick of these types of incidents ithat she calls White Girl Drama.
