A Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party official who once vowed to “dismantle” the Minneapolis Police Department is now calling for tougher crime laws after she was beaten and bloodied in a carjacking outside her home this week.
Shivanthi Sathanandan, the second vice chairwoman for the DFL, shared news of her attack in a Wednesday Facebook post, where she fumed that the four young suspects need to be brought to justice.
“I have a broken leg, deep lacerations on my head, bruising, and cuts all over my body. And I have rage,” wrote Sathanandan, who said the beating occurred in front of her 4-year-old daughter and 7-year-old son around 7:45 p.m. Tuesday.
“These men knew what they were doing. I have NO DOUBT they have done this before. Yet they are still on OUR STREETS. Killing mothers. Giving babies psychological trauma that a lifetime of therapy cannot ease. With no hesitation and no remorse,” Sathanandan continued.
Included in the post was a selfie of Sathanandan, showing blood pouring down the right side of her face.
“I’m now part of the statistics. I wasn’t silent when I fought these men to save my life and my babies, and I won’t be silent now. We need to get illegal guns off of our streets, catch these young people who are running wild creating chaos across our city, and HOLD THEM IN CUSTODY AND PROSECUTE THEM,” she said.
“Look at my face. REMEMBER ME when you are thinking about supporting letting juveniles and young people out of custody to roam our streets instead of HOLDING THEM ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS.”
Minneapolis police confirmed the carjacking in Sathanandan’s Folwell neighborhood in a statement to KSTP. Her car was later recovered, but no suspects have been arrested.
Sathanandan thanked the “incredible” Minneapolis PD for assisting in the terrifying experience — a far cry from her attitude toward law enforcement three years ago, when she posted online that she and other activists were “going to dismantle the Minneapolis Police Department.”
“MPD has systematically failed the Black Community, they have failed ALL OF US. It’s time to build a new infrastructure that works for ALL communities. If you are still disagreeing with that BASIC FACT, I’m not sure what to say to you,” she said in the June 5, 2020, post — less than two weeks after George Floyd was killed by Minneapolis police.
In another post on June 2 of that year, she applauded the Minneapolis School Board’s decision to terminate its contract with the department: “MPD should have no place in our children’s schools,” she wrote.
Minnesota DFL Chairman Ken Martin told KSTP in a statement Thursday that he was “heartbroken at the news of Shivanthi’s attack.”
“It is my sincere hope that the people who assaulted Shivanthi are quickly brought to justice and face punishment commensurate with the severity of their crimes,” Martin said. “My heart goes out to Shivanthi and her family and I hope their recovery from such a horrifying experience is as swift as possible.”
The Post has reached out to Sathanandan for comment

nhtagmemberGee, that’s shame
Broken leg huh?
That must be painful

EdmondNo race given in her description of the attackers which tells me they're black but she doesn't want to admit it. If they were white, she sure as hell would make that obvious.
And what does she know about equality coming from a country that uses a caste system where you are judged for life?
She didn't fight them off, she laid there and took a beating while defenseless and helpless. She's lucky they didn't rape her and beat/kill her kids while they were at it. From the picture, it wasn't much of a beating and likely not enough of a beating to put some sense into her.
Yet she still wants to call the gun illegal.
If I'm a cop, I'm not responding to any calls for service for her house. An old lady with a flat tire needs to be changed out that takes priority over this America hating commie.

Do ya now.
Clueless twat. You walk around for years, running your stupid suck, making claims anyone with sense knows are horse shit, then reality comes and bonks you on the head, and you want sympathy? You're a waste of oxygen.

calugoI have no sympathy for her and I doubt many do especially with her attitude towards cops.

parabellumShe knowingly damaged the public she is supposed to serve, all for her personal hatred of the police and her disgusting, self-centered virtue-signalling, and now all of a sudden it's "But it happened to MEEEEEEE!!!"
Not only do I not feel sorry for her, I am GLAD it happened to her.

CoolRich59She epitomizes the saying that 'a conservative is a liberal who's been mugged by reality'.
Welcome to reality!

bald1I'm wondering if she isn't also an attention whore and perhaps this whole carjacking business is a lot less than she represents. I say that as I can't help but wonder about the blood on her face looking awful watery fake.
Certifiable member of the gun toting, septuagenarian, bucket list workin', crazed retiree, bald is beautiful club!

And who allows blood to run down their face without applying pressure, or even touching it & getting it smeared?

FlashlightboyI think portions of her story are fake and in particular the blood.
A couple of weeks ago I picked up my elderly neighbor who fell and there was blood everywhere. It was thick, dark and pooled up. It was running down his head, around his ear and onto his face, neck and collar. Her blood looked nothing like his.
Unless there's medical proof of a currently broken leg, I'm calling a Jussie on this. That looks like cheap Halloween blood and not even good theater blood. The spatters, how it ran and everything else make me think that the photo of her was staged.
Now if it's real, good. I hope it hurts.

Patrick-SP2022I don't believe for a minute that the selfie in the NY Post article is from the aftermath of the attack.
She claims to have gotten a broken leg as well.
I doubt she would be calmly taking a selfie under those circumstances.

Maybe it was mixed w/ her liberal tears. I hear they make a great lubricant and thinner.
