A woman who repeatedly stabbed an 18-year-old Indiana University student in the head on a public bus has been charged with attempted murder for an alleged racially motivated attack.

The 56-year-old woman, Billie R. Davis, and the female student didn’t interact prior to the vicious attack, bus surveillance footage shows. The victim, who is Asian, was treated at a hospital and her name has not been released. Davis admitted the attack was racially motivated, according to court documents, although she hasn’t been charged with a hate crime at this time.

“This week, Bloomington was sadly reminded that anti-Asian hate is real and can have painful impacts on individuals and our community,” Indiana University Vice President of Diversity, Equity and Multicultural Affairs James Wimbush said in a statement. Davis faces a charge of aggravated battery and of battery by means of a deadly weapon alongside the count of attempted murder. She’s being held in the Monroe County Jail on a $1,000 cash bond.

I wonder where all this hate towards asians is coming from

iridienne Look at that smirk! She has no remorse.

People like Billie Davis here & their Ridiculous beliefs are what is wrong with America.

It’s called attempted murder Indiana

Daily Beast is J controlled

WTF is wrong with people? And that $1000 is a joke.

'Bloomington ... Mayor John Hamilton called behavior like the bus attack 'not acceptable'.” 'Not acceptable?' How about 'disgusting,' or 'horrific,' or some other adjective that at least hints you recognize the seriousness of the problem.

cHiNa Bad. All this Asian hate promoted by people like mikepompeo is the fuel for this

My guess is that serious mental illness is at play & $1K is enough to keep Davis behind bars. But the thing about mental illness is, it isn't inherently associated with aggression, but it's dead easy to fuel the flames, if a person is inclined to paranoia in the first place.

$1000 Dollar cash bond for attempted murder Excuse me, what?

Anti Asian “bias” attack?

$1000 bond and no hate crime charge? WTF

That looks like a trans

Her idea is correct but wrong in action Chinese wuhan covid virus is bio weapon to kill labor class people since china already developed AI and auto robots to replace them China spreads covid to the world on purpose to reduce the world labor class and sales the Chinese robots

Smug piece of crap. Looking forward to prison life siping it off her face.

Like it or not, she's probably a national hero, embodiment of national spirit (i.e. derangement), and could get considerable voter support in a system of 'demoncrazy'. 🥱

She might be the perfect candidate to head McCarthy’s China threat committee

LindaLarsonKemp Prison will help her

nadabakos $1000 bond! What an effing joke.

Most likely a fanatical, brainwashed Trumpster who watches trash TV 24/7. She got a smirk on her face. Why be on the side of racist whites like this dirtball when we can be on the side of good, decent non-racist whites from all walks of life?

You are a waste of space on earth! Even the oxygen you breathe could be productively used by someone else.

You are a disgrace to humanity!

There is a special place in hell for people like you!

nadabakos CPAC found its 2024 keynote speaker

Wonder if Andy ngo will post about this 🙄

Admits she almost killed a stranger(basically a child) over race. Gets no hate crime charges and 1000$ cash bail… what in the actual fuck

it's weird how these kind run away from the scene and are always apprehended unharmed by police.

She looks inbred😂

This is why I don’t trust people with no lips.

'She’s being held in the Monroe County Jail on a $1,000 cash bond.' wtACTUALf? TheJusticeDept

It's the guns

Look at her -- this is Face of MAGA...

Blaming the blacks in 3...2...1...

What is it with white women? Always stabbing people. Damn!

Watch her try to use the 'mental defect' defense

In other news reports it’s stated that she’s held without bond.

Evil fueled by disgusting xenophobic authoritarian narratives by the authoritarians in our midst, blaming innocents for our ills, with the global purpose to undermine faith in our institutions. So sick.

I'm surprised she's wearing orange, in some places now they can't hold you even if you're arrested for a second degree murder. Just let you walk right out the door till the trial, but they don't want to put anybody in prison. Stupid stuff like this is what you get

$1,000 bond?!? Seriously? Ridiculous.

She'll be the next Rittenhouse...

One thousand dollars bail!!!!!

It is astounding that anyone could 'like' a report about an accused attacker? Shame on the 'likers.'

1k cash bail? Wtf?

Rehabilitation Potential =

She got a 1000 bond in a Republican city and state for attempted murder and admitted hate crime. Republicans protect their own.

Jeez! For no reason, she just up and stabbed her in the head?😬 What is wrong with these people?! 🤦

You'll never convince me that that is a woman. Regardless, it seems very proud of itself.

ACLU womensmarch

Trump's anti-Asian hate speech is having real world consequences.

Wow. finally found a white woman attacking an Asian. Why not report all the African American attacks on Asians across the country?

TrumpsVeryFinePeople GOPRacism RepublicanRacism

Why was she carrying a knife on the bus? Premeditated!

She looks pleased with herself. Throw the book at her!

Send her to ISIS
