SIMP Christian Cooper Refuses to Testify Against Central Park Karen...SMDH

Christian Cooper, the Black man who filmed a White woman calling the police on him while he was birdwatching in Central Park in May, has not cooperated with the Manhattan district attorney's investigation, The New York Times reported Tuesday. "On the one hand, she's already paid a steep price," Cooper said in a statement, according to the Times. "That's not enough of a deterrent to others? Bringing her more misery just seems like piling on." On Monday, the Manhattan district attorney announced plans to prosecute the woman, Amy Cooper (no relation), on a charge of falsely reporting an incident in the third degree. She has been issued a desk appearance ticket and is scheduled for arraignment October 14.

She has been issued a desk appearance ticket and is scheduled for arraignment October 14. Christian Cooper expressed his personal ambivalence with the prosecution in his statement to the Times. "So if the DA feels the need to pursue charges, he should pursue charges. But he can do that without me," he said. An attorney for Amy Cooper said on Tuesday that she would be acquitted and decried the rise of "cancel culture." "When all the facts are known, Amy Cooper will be found not guilty of the single misdemeanor charge she faces," attorney Robert Barnes said in a statement. "Based on a misunderstood 60 seconds of video, she lost her job, her home and her reputation. "Public shaming, lost employment, denied benefits & now prison time for a mis-perceived, momentary alleged 'wrong think'? For words said in a sixty second interaction where even the alleged victim calls this reaction way excessive? This criminalized, cancel culture is cancerous & precarious. That is why acquitting Amy Cooper is important." https://edition.cnn.com/2020/07/08/us/christian-cooper-central-park/index.html
