'This is my America': Doctor charged with hate crime in assault on Latino man

A Florida anesthesiologist known for her ardent support of former President Donald Trump has been charged with a hate crime against a Latino man who was assaulted outside a supermarket, according to news outlets citing police reports.

The man was at a Publix supermarket when he asked a woman on line to maintain social distancing in Spanish, The Miami Herald reported, citing a police report.

Wright followed the man to his car, and after he asked her to back up, she became angry, calling the victim a “spic” and saying “we should have gotten rid of you when we could," according to The Herald.

Before Halloween, the Herald said, she placed a menacing-looking mannequin that resembled Biden with a sign, “Expose the Biden Crime family.”
