A working-class woman who was severely battered in a wild street brawl in Cincinnati has claimed the city’s police chief and mayor have not acknowledged her at all.
The victim, only identified as Holly, was attacked in the downtown area of the Ohio city on July 26 around 3am alongside an unknown man.
The violent encounter was captured on camera by several bystanders as Holly, who said she tried to step in to help the man, got beaten to a pulp and was left with brain trauma.
In her first sit-down interview with political commentator Benny Johnson on Tuesday, Holly revealed she has been ignored by Mayor Aftab Pureval and Cincinnati Police Chief Teresa Theetge, who, according to Johnson, are ‘implicated in this.’
Johnson asked her: ‘Has the mayor of Cincinnati or police chief been in contact with you?’
‘No,’ Holly replied, shaking her head as bruises covered her face.
‘That’s astonishing Holly, that the mayor of the city, who’s implicated in this, and the police chief, who’s implicated in this, have not even contacted you for the attempted murder that happened in their street live on camera,’ Johnson continued as Holly agreed.
