Full Video: Woman Throwing Chipotle Burrito Bowl At A Worker’s Face (Watch)
Emily Russell was working at an Ohio Chipotle when an angry customer, Rosemary Hayne, violently hurled a hot bowl of food in her face — an attack that was caught on video.
Now, Hayne, who was found guilty last week of assault, has agreed to work in a fast-food restaurant to avoid jail time.
Do you want to walk in [Russell’s] shoes for two months and learn how people should treat people, or do you want to do your jail time?” Judge Timothy Gilligan asked Hayne at her sentencing.
“I’d like to walk in her shoes,” Hayne responded.
It’s not clear at which restaurant Hayne will work, and her attorney didn’t immediately return a request for comment.
But the sentence comes as violence against fast-food and retail workers is on the rise, with one survey finding that 6 in 10 retail employees had witnessed a violent incident at their workplace in the last year.
