Shocking moment racist woman, 49, launches foul-mouthed rant at black victim on night tube – before telling court she blamed her vile outburst on a spiked drink

This is the shocking moment a woman launches a foul-mouthed tirade at a black passenger on the London Underground before blaming a ‘spiked drink’ for her racist behaviour.

Janice Wilding, 49, from Lambeth, south London, was ‘surprised’ when she saw the disgusting video, which was heard by the court today, and recorded her actions over a drink.

The shocking footage, captured on December 4, 2022 on the Jubilee line, shows Wilding violently shouting at a black passenger.

Disgusted commuters are seen holding Wilding down as she rages at the unsuspecting woman.

You can hear her say, “Don’t fucking involve my mother in this. Because I’m tearing you apart, you son of a bitch.

“I will tear you apart. Because you’re black and you think you’re big. Shut your damn mouth.”

As she continues her tirade, other passengers are seen gathering around her to stop her, pleading, “Please get off the train.”

The defense is met with hostility, with Wilding shouting at them, ‘Get your damn hands off me. She’s fucking.

A woman then successfully escorts Wilding off the train as she continues to shout expletives from the other side of the carriage.

The video, taken by witness Anyusha Rose, was shown to police after the incident.

After being assessed, officers recognized Wilding from an incident at a hotel earlier that day and she was arrested in January 2023, Inner London Crown Court heard.

Witness Rose recalled sitting in a “fairly busy” carriage where “obviously drunk” Wilding called other passengers “boring” for not joining in with her songs and then threatened to put them on YouTube, prosecutor Edmund Blackman said.

One woman found it ‘extremely uncomfortable’ being filmed and tried to grab Wilding’s phone when she pointed it at her, sparking a wave of racist abuse.

Wilding said to the black woman, “Where the hell are you from?” and ‘Go back to Africa, you don’t belong here’.

As the victim got up to walk away, Wilding lunged at her and punched her, but missed. Another passenger intervened and blocked the route but Wilding continued to try to hit her while shouting more abuse, the court was told.

“Go back to Africa… Black motherfucker… Come on, you think you’re difficult because you’re black,” Mr. Blackman said, using the N-word.

Ultimately, Wilding’s chaperone pulled her from the train at West Hampstead, ending the attack. When Ms Rose asked the victim if she wanted to speak to police, she told her: ‘What’s the point? Nothing will be done.”

After Wilding was identified and arrested, she was charged by mail nine months later with racist fear of violence with words. She pleaded guilty last December.

Judge Nigel Peters KC said it was ‘fortunate for justice’. Ms Rose had recorded the attack and shared the video as a public service, then criticized the delay in filing charges.

Lawyer Simeon Wallis said his client was “genuinely remorseful” and wanted to apologize to the victim.

Mr Wallis also claimed the outburst may have been due to ‘a combination of medication and alcohol’, due to Wilding’s use of antipsychotics, and raised Wilding’s claim that her drink had been spiked.

‘It is clear that Ms Wilding was surprised by what she saw in the video. Based on the strange behavior seen in other parts of the video, she formed the opinion that she was aroused,” Mr Wallis said.

‘She didn’t drink for the first time. She’s never reacted like this to drink before.’

Judge Peters, apparently speaking from sober experience, said it was common to find passengers who had ‘had a few’ on the night tube.

But he said people should be able to use the service without abuse, warning that “things might have gotten worse” if Wilding had not been dragged off the train by her partner.

‘You decided to get annoyed when people were angry about your behavior. Then you uttered the most despicable language imaginable… People should have the right to do what they do, whatever it is on their phone or staring into space, without this kind of behavior and racist language,” he said. Judge Peters.

Judge Peters gave her a community order of 12 months and 100 hours of unpaid work, adding: ‘Unpaid work is designed for people like you.’
