In a shocking incident on the London Underground, a woman unleashed a racist attack on a fellow passenger, using derogatory language and telling her to go back to her country. Janice Wilding, 49, directed her hate towards a black woman on the Jubilee line in December 2022. It was a disturbing scene as Wilding's fellow commuters had to intervene and hold her back while she continued her barrage of insults.
As the video of the incident surfaced, Wilding was taken aback by her own behavior and claimed that she must have been drugged. She insisted that she would never have acted in such a manner otherwise. However, her attempt to shift the blame did not go unnoticed by the court.
According to reports, Wilding had already caused a scene at a hotel earlier that day, and the police recognized her from the CCTV footage. The Inner London Crown Court heard how she had been drunk and causing a disturbance, even singing loudly and calling her fellow passengers "boring" for not joining in.
Wilding was so agitated by the lack of participation that she threatened to film the other passengers and post it on YouTube. This made them feel uncomfortable, and one woman even tried to take Wilding's phone away. In response, Wilding lashed out with racist slurs, targeting the black woman in particular.
In the video, Wilding can be heard shouting, "Don't f***ing bring my mother into it. Because I'll rip you apart b***." She continues to use profanity and racial slurs, even as the other passengers plead with her to get off the train. Wilding's aggressive behavior escalated to the point where she tried to throw a punch, but missed, while screaming, "Go back to Africa... Black c***... Bring it on, you think you're hard because you're Black."
Eventually, Wilding was forced off the train, and the incident was reported to the authorities. In court, she was charged with one count of racially aggravated violence. Her defense counsel claimed that she was "genuinely remorseful" and wanted to apologize to the victim. He also suggested that Wilding's behavior may have been influenced by a combination of medication and alcohol, and that her drink may have been spiked.
However, the judge was not convinced by this excuse and reprimanded Wilding for her actions. He stated that people should be able to go about their business without being subjected to such hateful language. Wilding was given a 12-month community order and 100 hours of unpaid work. The judge further added, "Unpaid work was designed for people like you."
This incident serves as a reminder that racism and hate have no place in our society. It is important to speak out against such behavior and stand in solidarity with those who are targeted. Let us hope that this serves as a lesson to Wilding and others like her to think before they speak and to treat others with respect and dignity.
