Sam Kerr pleads not guilty to racially insulting police officer

Sam Kerr, female football star, will be tried in the United Kingdom for racially insulting a police officer, a charge to which she has pleaded not guilty, we learned from a judicial source on Monday.

The facts are old and date back to January 30 last year in Twickenham, in the southwest suburbs of London, said a spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police. They occurred while a police officer was responding to a dispute over the fare of a taxi ride, he continued.

Aged 30, Sam Kerr, who plays for Chelsea FC, is expected to be tried in February 2025. She is being prosecuted for "threatening, offensive and insulting" behavior, a charge punishable by a fine or a sentence of prison if the offense is proven.
