Hotels are apparently favored territory for the so-called “Soho Karen,” who falsely accused a black teenager of stealing her iPhone during a violent video clash in Manhattan.
As it turns out, Miya Ponsetto, 22, 10 months before allegedly going mad in a Soho lobby the day after Christmas, was arrested in February after she and her mother reportedly caused a disturbance at the Peninsula Hotel in Beverly Hills by refuse to leave. , TMZ said.
The Post described that California criminal case against Ponsetto and her mother Nicole, who were beaten at the incident with public charges of drunkenness.
But TMZ’s account adds new details.
The hotel staff had asked the women to leave and called the police when the couple refused – only to allegedly assault an officer, push and kick Nicole Ponsetto, TMZ reported.
The mother is facing an extra battery charge from a police officer and both women are due to appear in court later this month.
The incident apparently didn’t scare Ponsetto much – just a day after she was charged with public intoxication for the incident at the Peninsula Hotel, on May 27, she was beaten with a drunken driving attack in Los Angeles County, where she pleaded for no match. , TMZ said.
Ponsetto is facing potential charges in New York, including assault, grand theft or attempted robbery, the NYPD said.
She is wanted by the NYPD for allegedly being 14-year-old Keyon Harrold Jr. attacked at the Arlo Hotel on December 26.
Ponsetto is currently staying with her mom in California, where The Post bit her Friday while she was picking up a fast food lunch and saying to our lens guy, “I don’t know what’s the problem here,” and “I’m Puerto Rican too, so thank you.”
“She was a popular girl, one of the cheerleaders, a class older than me,” at Simi Valley High School in California, another former student told The Post Saturday.
“She wouldn’t even look at your side if she thought you weren’t important or if you didn’t have money,” said ex-college student, Vannessa Stoerchle, now from Phoenix.
“But I was really surprised to see this,” she said.
“Weird to see someone in high school who was a popular girl ended up like this. Never thought Miya would racially profile someone like that, ”she added.
“She was one of those girls who seemed to have gotten everything to her.”
