When told to sit back in a chair, the woman kicked the arresting officer and bit their hand, the police report said. The report identifies the woman as “unknown” because she had no identification and continuously refused to identify herself. Sally Woodson, the executive communications specialist for the University of Kentucky confirmed to CNN the police report pertains to Rosing. Rosing was initially booked as a Jane Doe in the Kentucky Department of Corrections’ records, Baird said. In a message to the campus community, University of Kentucky President Eli Capilouto said the incident took place at one of the dorms and one of the victims was a student employee working an overnight shift at the front desk. The university staff is conducting a review and reaching out the victims, Capilouto said. “To be clear: we condemn this behavior and will not tolerate it under any circumstance. The safety and well-being of our community has been — and will continue to be — our top priority,” Capilouto said. Capilouto said he had reviewed video that appears to show the assault, which was posted online Sunday, and condemned the student’s behavior. “The video images I have seen do not honor our responsibilities to each other. They reflect violence, which is never acceptable, and a denial of the humanity of members of our community. They do not reflect civil discourse. They are deeply antithetical to what we are and what we always want to be as a community,” the university’s president said. After the incident, Kylah posted the video on her TikTok, but TikTok is doing some funny ish because it’s gone. The company also seemingly muted one of the videos where she’s explaining what went down. In another video, Kylah explained that the TikTok app kept taking her videos down, so she shared a 3-minute version of what happened when she encountered Sophia. Here’s what she said: Hey Everyone instead of sharing Racist Bin Bag Barbie (Sophia Rosing) Please can you share this video of Kylah Spring's own version of events. She wants it out there but Tiktok keeps taking it do

You can check out the video on Kylah’s TikTok account here.
Monday night (Nov. 7th), students organized a march to demand justice for Kylah Spring. The students yelled out "protect Black women," and "say her name."
Demonstrators gathered on campus to march in solidarity with Kylah Spring, the freshman student who was attacked by Rosing

Kylah Spring spoke to hundreds at a rally with tears streaming down her face as she shared her reaction to being physically, verbally, and racially assaulted.
Watch her powerful speech below:
After bonding out, Sophia took to social media to issue a lame apology (like they always do when they’re caught being racist in 4K).
”I was under the influence I’m sorry please don’t judge me I lost everything,” Sophia wrote on IG Stories.
”I understand a [sic] apology may not help but I am not a racist I was under the influence I lose everything literally [broken heart emoji] & now I have to fear for my life god forgiveness please understand,” she wrote in another IG Stories post.
It appears she also wiped her IG account clean:
They say the company you keep is a reflection of yourself. And Sophia’s friends talk JUST like her. Peep some of their posts following her arrest below:
not only do we have to hold sophia rosing accountable, but also her friends posting that she did nothing wrong. her friends say the n word too which isn’t shocking. pic.twitter.com/r9DPQ4lIvI

Well, Sophia’s actions cost her BIG time. She used to be a campus influencer for Dillards, but NOT anymore. The retail company terminated its partnership with Sophia immediately.
Dillards does not condone this behavior. Her relationship with Dillard’s has been terminated immediately.

Sophia also lost her partnership with Her Campus Media. The company reportedly removed her from the program.
She was hired through a program run by College Fashionista and their parent company, Her Campus Media.
College Fashionista also released a statement:
Today we learned of a video involving a College Fashionista member physically and verbally assaulting two Black women. At Her Campus Media and College Fashionista, we vehemently denounce this abhorrent behavior and do not condone racism or hate in any form. We unapologetically stand in support of BIPOC communities and affirm that Black lives matter. Full stop.
Immediately upon being informed of the incident, we removed the member from our community and terminated her affiliation with any of our programs.
We strive to ensure all of our members reflect our values, but in this case we failed. Here’s how we’ll be taking accountability moving forward:
→ Sophia Rosing was removed from the College Fashionista community effective immediately.
→ We will be conducting an immediate detailed review of our member management practices, including our vetting processes, internal training, and beyond.
Thank you to the community for bringing this to our attention. Thank you for raising your voices and holding us accountable. We sincerely apologize for the immense hurt caused to the individuals involved and to our wider community.
Serves her right! We hope justice is served for Kylah’s sake. She didn’t deserve ANYTHING that happened to her. Hopefully, she doesn’t accept anything less than having her full college career PAID IN FULL because what happened to her was absolutely disgusting.
