Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance fought to lessen Jeffrey Epstein’s sex offender status despite the threat he posed to young girls and declined to prosecute Harvey Weinstein but he had no issue with charging Amy Cooper on Monday for calling 911 on an African-American Democrat activist who openly admitted he threatened her.

From The New York Times:

A white woman who called the police and falsely accused a Black man of threatening her life after he asked her to put her dog on a leash will face misdemeanor charges, the Manhattan district attorney announced Monday.

Amy Cooper, the woman in the Central Park encounter, which was recorded on video and touched off intense discussions about the history of Black people being falsely reported to the police, will be charged with filing a false report, a misdemeanor punishable by up to a year in jail.

“Today our office initiated a prosecution of Amy Cooper for falsely reporting an incident in the third degree,” said Cyrus R. Vance, the Manhattan district attorney. “We are strongly committed to holding perpetrators of this conduct accountable.”

Christian Cooper on Facebook openly admitted that he threatened Amy Cooper immediately after the incident occurred.

The privileged Harvard grad said he told Amy Cooper, “If you’re going to do what you want, im [sic] going to do what I want, but you’re not going to like it.”

He then pulled out mystery “treats,” which he said he carries “for just such intransigence,” and called her dog to himself.
