NYC woman punches reporter for asking question, DA drops charges

I don’t understand, she asked for the woman’s opinion and then got berated for it. That’s incredibly provocative, especially since it was being recorded. But if words are enough to make you physically assault someone, the problem is on you, whether it’s lack of impulse control, anger management, or whatever you want to call it. There was no reason the attacker couldn’t have just walked away and said, “We’re done here.” Resorting to violence only makes her look like she couldn’t win the argument on her own.

NYC woman who sucker-punched pro-life activist won’t be prosecuted as Manhattan DA Bragg’s office admits botching case

The Manhattan District Attorney’s office quietly dismissed their case against a woman who violently clocked a pro-life activist in the face — and a conservative law firm now plans to file a civil suit against the assailant.

The DA’s office on Friday confirmed to The Post that in July it dropped the second-degree assault charge against 30-year-old Brianna J. Rivers, blaming an “unacceptable error” of missing a deadline to hand over evidence in the case to the defense team.

The bungled case is now being reviewed by the Chicago-based firm Thomas More Society, which plans to sue Rivers on behalf of activist Savannah Craven Antao — the woman Rivers viciously sucker-punched during the on-camera street interview in Harlem in April.
