Video footage has surfaced that shows new Massachusetts U.S. Attorney Rachael Rollins angrily confront journalists in January over a road rage incident where she cut off a white motorist and impersonated a police officer in a Boston parking lot.
Rollins, 50, who was narrowly confirmed in the Senate after Vice President Kamala Harris cast a tie-breaking vote on Wednesday, is seen in footage from Boston 25 News threatening the news crew asking about the dustup.
Rollins angrily threatens them with legal action, accuses them of endangering her children because they asked for an interview near her home.
She also brings up the race of the other driver involved in the Boston parking lot dustup but doesn't acknowledge what transpired.
Boston 25 spoke with a woman, Katie Lawson, who told the outlet that Rollins confronted her when she attempted to merge ahead of the attorney's car while both were leaving the parking lot.
Lawson said she '1,000 percent thought that she [Rollins] was a police officer,' telling the outlet that Rollins threatened to write her a ticket.
When Rollins was being interviewed by Boston 25, she at one point said: 'So the rantings of a white woman get you here and scare my children?'
But the attorney later tweeted and tried to misrepresent her foul-mouthed exchange with the news crew, claiming in a series of tweets that she had been accosted by a 'masked white man' who jumped out of his truck and removed something 'large & dark' from the trunk, leaving her and her children feeling 'terrified.'
Rollins has a history of making public controversial statements invoking race, railing against police brutality and expressing support for Black Lives Matter protesters.
