White University of Kentucky student is ARRESTED after video shows her using racial slur
>
A drunk University of Kentucky college student was arrested early Sunday morning after she was filmed calling a black student employee a “n***** b****” and physically assaulting her.
Police arrested Sophia Rosing, 22, just before 4 a.m. Sunday in a college dormitory on charges of drunkenness in a public place, third-degree assault on a police officer, fourth-degree assault and second-degree disorderly conduct.
A video posted online shows Rosing barely standing as she tries to punch fellow student Kylan Spring, who was working at the front desk of an on-campus dorm.
Rosing, who is white, is quick to call Spring a “n***** b***” as Spring tried to stop her.
“Can you please stop?” Spring asks Rosing after she manages to escape Spring’s grasp.
“No,” Rosing replies simply, before Spring tries to grab her again.
Rosing then repeats the racist slur, causing Spring to say, “Oh my God, I’m not getting paid enough for this.”
“Exactly and you’re a ***** and you’re an ab****,” Rosing responds a few times before an off-camera voice says to Spring, “I’ve got all this on video.”

Rosing is seen here wrestling with fellow student Kylan Spring early Sunday morning, who was working at the front desk of an on-campus dorm.
When Spring and another black student tried to get Rosing to sit down, Rosing could be seen trying to punch the other victim and kicking Spring.
A second video apparently showed Spring and another black student trying to get Rosing into a chair, when Rosing tries to punch the second black victim and tries to kick Spring.
It ends with a white male officer eventually handcuffing Rosing in the dorm room as she kept repeating the racist slur and struggled to stay upright.
Rosing is now being held in the Fayette County Detention Center on a $10,000 bond.
It is unclear if she has hired a lawyer to speak on her behalf, or if she is still a student at the school.

In an Instagram post after the altercation, Spring described what she had been through.
“I was working on a shift tonight where I was attacked and called a *****, and someone said other racist remarks to me,” she began.

According to Spring, the incident began around 1 a.m. when Rosing walked into Boyd Hall. She said Rosing “didn’t look like a resident” and therefore wouldn’t open the door for her.
When she finally walked into the lobby, Spring said, she tripped as she approached the elevators—which she began to talk to.
“It’s part of our job that if we see a student who is very drunk, we have to call an RA to… write a report,” Spring said.
“So I reach my head out of the desk area and I ask the girl, ‘Are you okay?'” Spring said, “and she just stared at me and started calling me a *****.”
At that point, Spring said, she called the RA and tried to prevent Rosing from entering the elevator, as she had no ID to enter the building.
“And so I jumped in, I tried to put her aside, and she kept going “No n*****, you’re an ab****, you’re a *****, do my chores b****.
“And she kept doing that while I tried to make her sit.”
Spring said Rosing then kicked her in the stomach, tried to hit her with a shopping cart in the lobby, and bit her boyfriend.
In an email to students after the altercation, President Eli Copilouto said Spring “acted professionally, with restraint and discretion.”
He noted that the school’s Office of Student Conduct has launched an immediate review of the attack and that the student success teams are “contacting the students who have been victims of this behavior to offer support,” the spokesperson said. NBC news.
“To be clear, we condemn this behavior and will not tolerate it under any circumstances,” he said, promising to update students with more information as it becomes available.
Rosing was previously filmed berating another student at a party
She told the student in the video how she’s rich and she apparently isn’t
But apparently this isn’t the first time Rosing has been filmed berating her fellow students.
Another video that went viral shortly after footage of the attack showed Rosing telling someone off-camera at a party, “I’m rich as f*** and you’re clearly not up to par with what you warned.
“And I can do you and you can’t help it, especially since you don’t know my last name. But I know damn well who you are.’
It’s unclear if Rosing has been suspended from the school for her attack, as a school spokesperson simply said officials “don’t talk to students’ disciplinary proceedings while they’re on the road.”
