Charges Dropped Against Man Who Beat, Spit on 83-Year-Old Korean American Woman

A man accused of attacking an 83-year-old Korean American woman in White Plains, New York in March will no longer be prosecuted for the alleged crime, as investigation of the case continues.

This week, the Westchester County District Attorney’s Office dropped charges against Glenmore Nembhard, saying there was simply not enough evidence to indict him.

Nembhard, 40, is a homeless individual with a violent history, according to News12.

On March 9, he allegedly spat on Nancy Toh’s face, punched her nose and knocked her unconscious. Toh was collecting cans and bottles for money at the time of the incident, at around 7:30 p.m. outside of Nordstrom at the Westchester Mall.

The history of laws, and court procedures are designed, unintentionally, to favor a certain segment of society that can, or chooses to, behave and live by a certain set of cultural norms. Get outside of those norms and your testimony or character will be used to question your victim status.
