Sentenced: Cops Say Mom Falsely Claimed Two Black Men Shot At Her Car; Now, She’s Been Charged

[Sugar Cookie]

When her two young daughters wound up injured in a shooting on Tuesday, police say, Angela Pupo offered a detailed story — falsely blaming two Black men.

She claimed her car was stopped at an intersection in Liberty City when, through her rearview mirror, she “observed two black males running toward her vehicle,” according to a Miami-Dade police report.

Gunshots rang out, followed by the sound of glass shattering. One man was thin “with dreads,” the other “heavyset with a low haircut,” she told officers during questioning at Jackson Memorial Hospital.

Police have now charged Pupo, 32, a white Cuban American, with providing false information to police during an investigation, a misdemeanor. Suspicious detectives grilled Pupo, who stuck to her story for about 20 minutes before breaking down in tears and admitting she lied, according to an arrest report released on Thursday.

Pupo remained jailed on Thursday afternoon. Her court record does not yet list a defense attorney.

The charge adds to the other accusations against Pupo, who police say admitted she took her daughters along to shoplift at a Hialeah seafood market. The real shooting, police said, happened when a security guard fired his pistol at Pupo’s car as it drove off, injuring the girls, ages 6 and 8.

Hialeah Police arrested Pupo on charges of aggravated child abuse and petty theft. Stedman Amaya, the suspected shoplifter who was with Pupo and is accused of stealing a $199 box of lobster tails, is on the run.

The security guard, Leonardo Morales Gomez, 50, is facing two counts of attempted murder and two counts of attempted manslaughter. Investigators say Morales was not in danger when he fired his gun at the fleeing car.

Shades of Diane Downs and Susan Smith; even though this pig wasn't the shooter/killer, both blamed their crimes on non-existent "black men".
SMH.

a white Cuban American

Kinda but/and ..

okay somewhat off topic:

The whole 'white' thing is so variable. It's strictly cultural. USA started up with the "one drop" stuff some years ago and I think its guided US culture since that time.

This perp has a light skin tone but especially with her natural hair color which you can see under the bleach/dye, and the way her face is built, in some areas of the world she wouldn't necessarily be considered 'white' or whatever the local culture uses for that sort of perception. Like Roma (gypsies) in Finland. If that woman wore the cultural Finnish Roma clothes in Finland she would pass as Roma (which ethnic Finns would I think not be able to do convincingly). In regular clothes this perp would look immigrant to Finnish people (and immigrants get treated differently when push comes to shove). If she gets a sun tan, impressions could change further.

Below linked for 2 pictures of Finnish Roma. Roma cannot necessarily even get a job interview here, employers see a culturally Roma name on a CV (resumé) and skip it (proven fact). It is as though they are 'black' or at least, non-white. But the skin color is white.

I don't think those are supposed to do that? This charge sounds about right.

Every part of this story is fucked up, from the shoplifted luxury item (lobster tails) to her bringing along her little daughters who should have never seen their mother shoplifting or received gunshot wounds, and every poor choice in between by EVERYONE.
The "suspicious detectives" are the only decent people in this story.

Pupo is a very fitting last name, considering where she has been talking from recently.

Also, she is balding, FYI.

white Cuban American,

Wait... what... why word it like that?

white Cuban American,

Wait... what... why word it like that?

That basically shit-line was pulled directly from the miamiherald.com news article as Sugar Cookie found it there.

 

[Satanica]

That's probably a normal descriptor in S Florida where there are a lot of Cuban transplants. I guess as opposed to a black Cuban American to highlight the racist component of the story.

 

[Sejanus]

The behaviour of everyone in this story was...Pull.
Shitbirds one and all.

 

[LarzlovesJahi]

Don't even know where to start. Here goes...

I'm really looking forward to the day that someone tries to cover up their crime by blaming imaginary white perpetrators. Seriously, we'll have made some progress as a nation/world when that starts happening.

And the 1/2 Puerto Rican in me says..."Cubans. So preoccupied with color."

Clearly you have not had the pleasure of working for the U.S. Census Bureau! The reporter who wrote this story probably has to supplement their income and went through the training to be a enumerator this year.
The forms are tailored very carefully to not offend anyone, for example there's a category of non-white Hispanic, Hispanic, with geographical sub-regions to check off underneath those.
