Woman Who Racially Abused Bouncer in Birmingham Jailed for 14 weeks

Woman Who Racially Abused Bouncer in Birmingham Jailed for 14 weeks

A drunk club goer who hurled a torrent of racial abuse at a black Wetherspoons doorman and spat at him broke down in tears today as she was jailed for 14 weeks.

The woman, identified as Sharna Walker flew into rage after she was kicked out of the bar and denied entry by doorman, Tristan Price.

The ordeal was caught on camera as she pushed the security guard and called him a 'black c*nt and a "f*ing n*gga" in front of shocked onlookers.

The 25 year old from Worcester, then proceeded to spit at him outside Wetherspoon's Figure of Eight bar.

Today, Walker was jailed after she pleaded guilty to racially aggravated common assault and criminal damage in connection to smashing the pub's door.

She burst into tears as guards applied handcuffs to her wrists.

District Judge John Bristow concluded Walker was a "risk to the public" and the appropriate punishment could only be achieved by immediate custody.

He said: "This truly shocking language has no place in the UK and any right-thinking member of the community would be utterly repelled by it."

What really took place?

Tristan Price, the bouncer on duty on the day of the incident

The court heard bouncer Mr Price, 26, was working on the door of the pub when he was alerted to four women being rowdy at around 9.30pm.

Prosecutor Sarah Woulfe said: "Mr Price went to the group, which included Ms Walker, and asked them to leave but they claimed they had lost a mobile phone.

"Mr Price helped look for the phone but it could not be found. He saw Ms Walker do something out of the corner of his eye.

"He was notified by his manager that Ms Walker had taken a drink from her glass and spat the contents towards Mr Price's back.

"Hearing this he asked her to leave immediately. Ms Walker pushed tables as she exited the venue causing damage.

"As she got to the door, she smashed the glass and hinges.

"Ms Walker then stood near the door shouting you "fu* n*gga and 'black c**t" and stepped towards Mr Price.

"Mr Price went back inside. Ms Walker slammed the door into him.

"Mr Price came back outside the door and Ms Walker spat at Mr Price landing on his feet and hands.

"Ms Walker shoved the door and hit Mr Price's shoulder."

In a victim impact statement, which was read out in court, Mr Price said: "This incident made me feel very small and worthless and embarrassed.

"I was very uncomfortable at work afterwards and felt like other people witnessing the incident were staring at me.

"I was so upset, I shared the footage on social media on Instagram."

He had previously said the racist abuse affected him more than being threatened with knives or by drunken thugs.

Ms Woulfe revealed that Mr Price had withdrawn his support for the prosecution, saying the video had "achieved more than the courts" adding that he did not want Walker's life to be ruined by her actions.

The clip, which accumulated over 2.5million views, caused outrage at the time after it was posted to social media.

It captured the moment Walker, then 24, was booted out of the pub and began yelling at Mr Price for her bag.

She tries to shout at one of her friends inside the venue, before storming towards the entrance shouting: "Where the f*** is my bag moron, where is my bag.

"Get my f* bag then, get my f* bag."

While Mr Price remains calm throughout the altercation, Walker appears to push him and calls him a "black c****".

She then repeatedly shouts "f* n*gger" before spitting in full view of fellow revellers before walking away.
