Bettinger, the daughter of a police officer, pulled up near a local George Floyd demonstration and found the street blocked by protesters. “It was simply a comment made to a [dump] truck driver who was sitting and blocking the road, and just saying, like, ‘It’s good you’re here.'”Bryant took it quite differently, according to the outlet.
In the footage, Bettinger backs down the street in her car while Bryant and several other protesters follow.“It’s a Karen, it’s a Karen,” Bryant taunted, according to Reason.Bettinger was identified online the next morning and was barraged with insults and accusations from UVA students.The next day, Bryant began demanding that school administrators expel Bettinger.
