Amazon
delivery
drivers
had
a
very
harrowing
holiday
season
that
made
it
hard
to
differentiate
between

Christmas
and
Halloween.
BOSSIP
previously
reported
on
an

Amazon
driver
who
was
accosted
by
an
overly
aggressive
senior
citizen
in
a
Houston,
Texas
suburb
who
accused
her
of
being
a
thief.
Meanwhile,
in
Pittsburgh,

CBS
News
reports
that
an
Amazon
driver
was
held
at
gunpoint
while
called
numerous
racist
slurs
while
making
her
drop-offs.

That
driver,
identified
as
Linquita
Schley,
is
now
speaking
out
about
the
December
21
incident
and
how
deeply
it
has
affected
her
since.

What
was
going
through
my
mind?
I
got
flashbacks
of
my
stepson,”
she
said.
“I
was
getting
flashbacks
of
my
girlfriend,
flashbacks
of
my
mom.
I
was
getting
flashbacks
of
my
life
and
how
grateful
I
need
to
start
being
for
it.”

You
can
hear
more
of
Schley’s
comments
and
footage
of
the
attack
in
the
video
below.
Be
warned
that
while
the
images
are
not
graphic,
they
can
be
disturbing.

The
man
responsible
for
this
hateful
behavior
has
been
identified
as
65-year-old
Brian
Dengler
and
according
to
a
criminal
complaint,
Dengler
fully
admitted
to
pulling
the
gun
on
Schley
because
her
van
was
blocking
his
driveway.

The
white
thug
was
ultimately
charged
with
simple
assault,
ethnic
intimidation,
and
terroristic
threats.
We
hope
he
spends
as
much
time
as
the
law
will
allow
in
prison
and
that
Schley
can
extract
as
much
money
from
his
bank
account
as
a
judge
will
grant.

Seasons
greetings,
soup
cookie.
