Sophia Rosing was banned from the University of Kentucky campus after the incident
A college student who went on a drunken tirade using the n-word 200 times will now head to jail for a year.
Sophia Rosing, a former student at the University of Kentucky, became infamous in 2022 for her rant that was captured on video and shared on social media. In the video, Rosing was caught using the slur at a fellow student and assaulting her.
Rosing previously pleaded guilty to four counts of fourth-degree assault and other charges. When she entered her plea, she apologized to fellow student Kylah Spring and members of the Black community.
This week, a judge in Kentucky sentenced Rosing to 12 months in custody and 100 hours of community service, according to Lex 18.

In the infamous video Spring said that Rosing struck her numerous times and kicked her in the stomach. As Spring is explaining what happened to her, Rosing can be heard yelling at her in the background, calling the Black student the n-word and a “b****” throughout the footage.
Eh. Maybe a glass or two. At this level, you’re just fishing around for violent thrills.
I had a family member that invariably turned violent when drunk (but only towards his wife) but wasn’t at all like that when sober.
I’ve also been drunk and several levels and around people at various level of drunkness, have done so in various countries and retain just as well in memory what happens when I am drunk (even at the “end up in hospital from alcohol intoxication” extreme) as when I’m not, though because I also remember well how it felt, I feel no regret for the crazy shit I did when drunk.
From my own observation it’s not normal for most people to seek violent thrills when drunk, though I’ve seen it happen more in certain countries than others, so it might be a cultural thing. Also those who do turn violent when drunk are roughly split into three groups: those who go for violence against equally minded people for the fun of it (which are probably the ones you’re thinking of), those who have pent up aggression and when drunk dump it on some hapless victim (which seems to be this lady) and those acting some power fantasies (i.e. when drunk in a group were they feel safe from reprisals they turn violent but alone they don’t).
Personally I’m fine with the first kind (who am I to judge what consenting adults do to each other, including violence), but the other two are just bullies who normally are too afraid or self-repressed to act on their true nature.
