NH court fines Dover woman for threatening to kneel on the neck of a 9-year-old Black boy [View all]

A New Hampshire court ruled Wednesday that a Dover woman violated the state’s Civil Rights Act when she called a 9-year-old Black child a racial slur and threatened to kneel on his neck, according to a statement from the New Hampshire attorney general’s office.

Kristina Graper was prohibited from contacting the victim or his family and fined $2,500 with all but $500 suspended if the 51-year-old complies for three years with court orders, which include refraining from further violations of the Civil Rights Act, according to the statement.

The judge found that Graper threatened physical force against and terrorized the victim because of his race, according to the attorney general’s office.

Graper’s race was not mentioned in court documents.

The court reached this conclusion after Graper defaulted by not filing a response to the attorney general’s complaint, according to the statement.
