The millionaire socialite daughter of a former Washington Redskins owner has been arrested for allegedly bashing a stranger in the head with her $300 glass purse after spewing anti-Semitic slurs.
Jacqueline Kent Cooke, 29, was charged with assault on Wednesday in New York following the shocking confrontation on New Year’s Eve in the swanky Upper East Side restaurant Caravaggio.
Cooke’s alleged weapon in the brazen assault was a Lulu Guinness Chloe Mirrored Perspex Box Clutch, which retails for $300 and is made of mirrored glass.
San Francisco-based lawyer Matthew Haberkorn, 52, told the New York Daily News that the incident began in the restaurant’s coat check area, when he says Cooke became belligerent with his 77-year-old mother.
‘Hurry up, Jew!’ Cooke snapped at his mother, Haberkorn claims.
‘What did you say?’ Haberkorn’s wife Linda Thomas asked Cooke.
‘Hurry up, Jew, I got places to be!’ Cooke allegedly replied.
Cooke’s boyfriend allegedly chimed in with his own nasty remarks, telling Haberkorn’s daughters: ‘Happy bat mitzvah, girls.’
The incident then spilled out onto the sidewalk outside the glitzy restaurant, where Haberkorn confronted the socialite over her alleged slurs.
‘I walked up to her and asked her why she said that,’ Haberkorn told the Daily News. ‘She took her purse, which was a mirrored glass purse, and smashed me with it.’
Just then, one of Haberkorn’s four daughters began filming the confrontation, showing Cooke rolling on the sidewalk and struggling to get up, presumably after taking a swing.
‘You called me a f***ing bitch, you called me a c**t,’ Cooke can be heard saying.
‘You called me a f***ing Jew,’ Haberkorn claps back.
As her boyfriend wraps his arms around Haberkorn, Cooke appears to get up and then fall as she takes another swing at him.
‘You’re throwing a woman on the floor,’ Cooke’s boyfriend accuses Haberkorn in a slurred voice, to which he responds: ‘I didn’t f***ing touch her’.
The video ends after Cooke appears to try to tackle Haberkorn, but falls to the sidewalk yet again.
The couple runs away, and Cooke can be heard claiming ‘self-defense’ and ‘you harassed me’ over her shoulder as she flees.
Cooke is the daughter of the late Jack Kent Cooke, who owned the Redskins, along with the Los Angeles Lakers and Kings.
When a reporter for the Daily News visited her apartment Wednesday night, she was wearing pajamas and a finger splint, and denied the entire incident.
‘There’s nothing that happened on New Year’s Eve,’ she said. ‘I was here in my apartment.’

Huh? Caravaggio….Styx song… Too Much Time On My Hands….money too.
‘Hurry up, Jew!’ Cooke snapped at his mother, Haberkorn claims.
It sounds like some wealthy gentile Americans are worried about the Zionist takeover, too. Their money won’t save them from Zionist (communist) rule, and they know it.

There would be no story if that had been a Christian she was bashing.
“It was self-defense, your “honor”. I realized they were joos and I IMMEDIATELY feared for my life.”
Sounds reasonable. You could use lethal force in such a situation imho
Felt to me like “sign of the times,” like something we’re likely to see a good deal more of in the days and weeks ahead.
