Маме из Миннесоты вынесли приговор за расистские оскорбления видеосъемщика, но оправдали по делу о ребенке

The Minnesota mom caught on viral video hurling a racial slur at a 5-year-old black child was acquitted of one count of disorderly conduct for her offensive tirade against the boy — but she wasn’t let completely off the hook. Instead, a six-person jury found Shiloh Hendrix guilty of a different disorderly conduct charge related to the shocking April 2025 playground incident, according to local reports. The guilty verdict, delivered late Thursday, involved the 37-year-old mom’s words and behavior towards the man who recorded the ugly confrontation, MPR News reported. She raised almost $900,000 through an online fundraiser titled “Help Me Protect My Family.” “I called the kid out for what he was,” the page still reads, and claims that her private information, including her social security number and address, were leaked by outraged people online. Hendrix was placed on probation and slapped with 200 hours of community service and a $1,000 fine. She initially faced up to 90 days behind bars – the maximum sentence for disorderly conduct – but will only have to serve jail time if she violates her probation, Olmsted County District Judge Christa M. Daily said. Hendrix’s fate was decided over a year after a horrific video showing her unapologetically using the n-word to describe the boy, who is also autistic, went viral online. When the videographer, a black man named Sharmake Omar, confronted her over the use of the slur, Hendrix doubled down, directing the vile slur at the concerned adult who was standing up for a child. “If that’s what he’s going to act like,” Hendrix retorted, according to the video, which also shows her holding her own child. She then said the n-word several more times, directed at Omar. Hendrix has claimed that the young boy was going through a bag containing her child’s belongings, which made her justified in using the slur. --->READ MORE HERE A jury convicted a Minnesota woman of disorderly conduct Thursday night over her treatment of a bystander who recorded her hurling a racial slur at an 8-year-old autistic boy last year, while acquitting her of a separate charge tied directly to her conduct toward the child. Shiloh Hendrix, 37, was charged with two misdemeanor counts of disorderly conduct after an April 2025 confrontation at Roy Sutherland Playground in Soldier’s Field Park went viral, according to an Olmsted County criminal complaint stating police responded to the park after a man recorded video of Ms. Hendrix engaging in a hostile and racist manner toward a child, per Fox 9. Ms. Hendrix has said the boy took an applesauce pouch from her diaper bag before she pursued him and used the slur, and she then turned the same language on the man filming her. Jurors deliberated for roughly nine hours before finding Ms. Hendrix guilty on the count tied to her behavior toward the man with the camera, but not guilty on the count involving the child, according to MPR News. She was sentenced immediately to a stayed 90-day jail term, one year of probation, 200 hours of community service and a $1,000 fine. --->READ MORE HERE If you like what you see, please "Like" and/or Follow us on FACEBOOK here, GETTR here, and TWITTER here.
