Graphic: Photo of Woman Beaten in Cincinnati Attack
The News
Gruesome photos show the severely bruised and battered face of the woman who was knocked out during a horrifying now-viral Cincinnati brawl.
“This is Holly,” wrote Ohio Senator Bernardo Moreno as he shared the harrowing images of the victim who was filmed being beaten so badly he “thought she had been killed.”
“She wanted to have a nice evening out with friends. Instead, she got this,” Moreno wrote of the gruesome injuries from the vicious beatdown on a Cincinnati street last Saturday.
The grim images show Holly — who was not otherwise identified — with a huge black eye and busted lip, with one showing dark bruises across her entire face and neck.
Five people have since been charged after footage of the attack quickly went viral.
The video appeared to show a white man and woman being targeted by a group of largely black assailants.
The pair were brutally punched and stomped on as they cowered on the ground.
The woman was eventually knocked out cold.
Reactions
“When I saw the video [I] thought she had been killed,” Moreno told Fox News’ “Fox & Friends” on Thursday, adding that the images of her injuries were “so graphic, so horrible.”
“Holly gave me permission to release the photos so that others will never suffer what she did,” the outraged senator added.
Moreno ripped the response from local lawmakers in the wake of the violence – including Cincinnati Councilwoman Victoria Parks, who claimed in a social media post that the victims were asking to be assaulted by the ruthless mob.
“They asked for that beatdown,” Parks had replied to video of the brawl on Facebook. “I am grateful for the whole story.”
“This is what political leaders in Cincinnati are allowing,” he raged.
“These idiotic political leaders that the citizens allow to have office need to go.”
“The police chief blames social media. The city council person blamed the victim,” the Republican continued. “This is a total travesty. I’m not going to put up with it. Ohio deserves better and Cincinnati certainly does too.”
What's Next
Moreno called for the councilwoman and other Democrats to be booted from office – as he threatened to cut federal funding for the city if they refused to act.
“I’m going to call on all federal agencies to review the funding that we provide Cincinnati and I’m giving the leaders of Cincinnati one month to come up with a plan for them to protect civil rights for their citizens. If they don’t do it… I’m going to ask the agencies to suspend all federal funding because we’re not going to put up with this.”
