SOME OF THOSE ANSWERS.
MADIGAN, AS PER USUAL, SAYS
HE HAS NO PLANS TO STEP DOWN.
DEVELOPING TONIGHT, HATE
CRIME CHARGES HAVE BEEN FILED
ON A CONFRONTATION CAUGHT ON
CAMERA BETWEEN A WHITE WOMAN
AND A BLACK MAN AT WINNETKA
BEACH.
THE WOMAN IS ALREADY OUT OF
JAIL.
Reporter: SHE BONDED OUT OF
JAIL LATE THIS AFTERNOON.
THIS IS HER SECOND TIME POSTING
BAIL FOLLOWING THE VIRAL VIDEO
AT A PARK AND WINNETKA.
TODAY THE CHARGES ARE MORE THAN
JUST ASSAULT, IT'S A HATE CRIME.
IS THERE ANYTHING YOU WOULD
LIKE TO SAY ABOUT THESE CHARGES
AGAINST YOU?
WE HAVE NO COMMENT AT THIS
TIME.
Reporter: WE UNDERSTAND
THESE ARE SERIOUS.
IMPLIED BEING RACIST.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO RESPOND TO
THAT?
THE 65-YEAR-OLD AVOIDED MY
QUESTIONS. SHE JUMPED INTO HER
CAR WHERE HER HUSBAND WAITED,
JUST MOMENTS AFTER POSTING HER
BOND. SHE TURNED HERSELF IN
THIS MORNING, BUT THIS
AFTERNOON SHE WALKED INTO A
COURTROOM HANDCUFFED FACING THE
NEW FELONY CHARGE. SHE WAS
CAPTURED ON VIDEO DEMANDING A
BLACK MAN SHOW HER A PASS TO BE
AT THE.
AND WINNETKA.
THE ONLY PROBLEM, IT IS A
PUBLIC BEACH AND NO PASS IS
REQUIRED.
THE YOUNG MAN CALLED POLICE AND
RECORDED THE HEATED EXCHANGE.
SHE IS ACCUSED OF SAYING SHE
FELT THREATENED BECAUSE HE WAS
BLACK AND HIT HIM TWICE.
PROSECUTORS SAY HER ACTIONS
WERE RACIALLY MOTIVATED, BUT
HER ATTORNEY INSISTING NOT FAR
FROM THE CASE.
SHE HAS RECEIVED DEATH
THREATS.
CAN YOU ELABORATE?
IS SHE BEING TARGETED AT THIS
POINT?
I BELIEVE SHE IS BEING
TARGETED AND PROPERLY.
THIS IS, IN MY OPINION, A
MISCOMMUNICATION.
WE ARE HOPING THIS WILL RESOLVE
QUICKLY.
AN WHAT DOES THE MAN WHO SHE IS
ACCUSED OF HARASSING HAVE TO
SAY ABOUT ALL OF THIS?
HE CALLS IT JUSTICE AND HAVE SO
MUCH MORE TO SAY ABOUT IT.
