A white NYC woman who plowed her BMW through 50 Manhattan BLM protestors last year has refused a plea deal and will now stand trial, even as protesters compare her to a female Kyle Rittenhouse.
Kathleen Casillo, 53, appeared in Manhattan Criminal Court on Wednesday after she was accused of driving into the pedestrians during the protest at the intersection of 39th Street and Third Avenue on December 11, 2020. Casillo, of Howard Beach, Queens, has claimed the demonstrators had come up to her car and called her 'a white privilege b**ch' before banging on the vehicle. She told police at the time she had panicked and hit the gas

Good for her! The more bad publicity these thugs get (and the more money they lose), the better!

Let me get this straight, BLM is saying that she acted purely in self-defense but they want to make an example of her anyway? I mean, that's what saying she is the "new Kyle Rittenhouse" means to me.

I'm not privy to all of the videos or background, but I see one problem. AFTER she got away from the initial crowd that was assaulting her, she continues down the road at a good speed hitting people from behind. From what I've seen. Had it been me, I may have taken the deal.
Jury trials are a crap shoot. And she faces trial in a city that seems to just love them some BLM.

Was this woman supposed to allow these thugs to trash her car and beat her up? I'd be scared to death in her situation. What they were doing is NOT peaceful protest. I hope things go well for her.

She put them on the spot. The City and the prosecutor probably don't want a spectacle like the one at the Rittenhouse trial. A good move by Casillo.

The Daily Mail is another lying, sack of crap, referring to the street terrorists as "pedestrians." I pray the "journalists" who write this propaganda get a big dose of "protest" from BLM loons

I would have done the same thing, only with the biggest, tallest pickup truck on the market equipped with those huge swamp tires. Why mess up a nice BMW with that filth?

Protestors (rioters) do not have the right to block the use or access to public roads. If they stand, walk, or fill the streets to impede people from legitimate and rightful pursuits they deserve to be run down like the street litter they are.

People attacking a car with fists need to realize it's like bringing a knife to a gun fight...they're probably gonna lose. As for Ms. Casillo, she probably figured it was better to be judged by twelve than carried by six.

I'd certainly acquit her. The violent attackers need to be taught a lesson.

Attack my car with my wife in it and the car won’t be the only weapon deployed! She will be safe and if I’m in prison, fine! I’ve done my job as her husband!

"She was offered a deal which would have seen her complete six days community service, and have her license suspended for a year, but turned it down, meaning a jury will now decide the matter. "
She should have taken that deal. If the jury goes against her, which is a VERY REAL possibility in NYC, she could end up in jail for at least a year. She could also get more if the judge sees fit to give her more.

My parents always told me as a kid to be very watchful of cars when crossing streets, and that streets were not to be played in. Streets are for vehicles, they aren't a playground for immature thugs and cretins who want to loot, not work.
You attack somebody's car, what else are they to do but defend themselves? Rittenhouse may have just set an interesting precedent with his vindication. I hope these protesters get the hint.

So, when a mob attacks you in your car in NYC, what does the City claim is the appropriate defensive action?
Just sit there and die, if you are white?

Well,,,we have been told she is WHITE and that she has a BMW. She must be a REALLY BAD person.
The constitution, however, requires a jury of 12 .. and we will see.

Can a jury award a cash prize to someone who is accused after finding them guilty?
She deserves a medal.

I suppose she should have taken the "wise" counsel of that pathetic Soros tool that so evilly persecuted Mr. Rittenhouse, and "just take the beating."
Well, you first, comrade. FJB

I experienced a similar experience in a Jamaican hood. Driving home from a High School graduation ceremony alone. (my Husband stayed to clean up) teens were walking down the centre of the side street. I stopped rather than run them down. While stopped the thugs examined my car outside and through the windows. They were laughing and shouting. I had never experienced this monkey troop antisocial behaviour from the worst White Greasers. They stood in the front of my car. I was terrified and furious at the same time. Had I panicked and drove through them my life would have changed forever. I remembered God and made the sign of the cross. Two of them got it and cleared the way.

Spontaneous street protests are illegal in most municipalities. The SCOTUS has ruled for years that cities and towns are allowed to impose reasonable limitations on protest marches, including the requirement for a permit and limiting the protest to public property, such as plazas. Protests blocking off or limiting travel on public thoroughfares require notice and a permit as well as police protection of the protestors as they march and mill around for no longer than is reasonable. Riotous protests are almost always forbidden by the laws of municipalities. But those laws are not enforce against BLM, because--well, you know why.
But the illegality of these BLM protests may serve to assist this young woman when she reasonably felt in danger of assault or death by driving on this public right-of-way that had been taken over, without permission, by BLM thugs who accosted her. If I were in that position, I'd have driven a little slower and I'd be laying on the car horn the whole time. But that's just me. As a jury member, I'd never convict her of a crime in this instance.

My next vehicle is gonna have one of those crash bar grills fitted to the front of the car.
If things get 'western', I might add some edges.

One other note. Dress up when you leave the house.
You never know when you'll want to have a good looking 'arrest' picture.
