Utah 'Karen' in Viral Video Is Charged With Sexual Battery [View all]
A woman in Utah who was dubbed a Karen after video of her losing it over a young woman wearing a miniskirt went viral has been charged with sexual battery in connection with the incident.
Ida Ann Lorenzo, 48, allegedly pulled down the womans mini skirt as she complained that it was too small and threatened to call child protective services.
In a video with over 3 million views on TikTok, Lorenzo was filmed defending her decision to pull down the skirt, moments after the encounter in the lobby of the Sakura Japanese Steakhouse in St. George, Utah.
I happen to work for the state and if I have to watch your ass cheeks hanging out again, I will call CPS, Lorenzo said. According to the caption of the TikTok, the veritable Karen aggressively grabbed the skirt before yanking it down, and commented that the girl was probably underage.
Several young women jumped to their friends defense. Shes over 18, one said, and the woman filming confirmed that she was 19 years old.
You do not get to touch her, said another one of the women. Really? Lorenzo asks incredulously. Lorenzo then whispered something inaudible, before saying, No, its not appropriate.
