Sharon Williams, a 52-year-old woman who was arrested in April 2021 for harassing Asian employees at a nail salon in New York City’s Chinatown, was sentenced to three years of probation on Thursday. Manhattan Supreme Court sentencing: Williams was convicted of aggravated harassment and physically threatening an undercover police officer with violence, according to New York Daily News. The 52-year-old was ordered to attend an implicit bias program, anger management and alcohol and substance use disorder screening.
A woman who escaped her kidnapper by punching her way out of a homemade cinder block cell at a home in southern Oregon likely saved other women from a similar fate, authorities said.
