Called “Snowcone” By Colleagues, Told She Could Not Safely Do Job Because She is White
Former Parole Officer Samantha Rhys has filed a lawsuit in Manhattan Federal Court this week alleging two of her supervisors did nothing to protect her when parolees began threatening violence against her because of her race.
Rhys, who is white, was also allegedly referred to as “snowcone” by her black colleagues and told she could not safely do her job because of her race.
A white Brooklyn parole officer claims that she was racially discriminated against by colleagues who called her a “snowcone” and superiors who made it “impossible” for her to do her job.
Samantha Rys, 51, filed a lawsuit in Manhattan Federal Court this week against her two supervisors, Sabrina Davis and Tanya Johnson, both of whom are black, alleging that they did nothing to protect her when one of her parolees began threatening to rape, kill and dismember her last year.
