The Chelsea striker, Sam Kerr, was not guilty of racist harassment after referring to a Metropolitan police officer as “stupid and white”.
A jury in the Kingston Crown Court arrived at the ruling on the incident that occurred in Toykinham, southwest of London, on January 30, 2023.
Kiir, 31, claimed that she was “recovered” by the officers after being transferred to a police station in a taxi after a dispute.
While she admitted using the phrase “stupid and white” towards PC Stephen Lovell, she denied that her statements were a racist crime.
The Australian international showed her comfort in court, as she gave a thumb to her legal team before leaving her fiancé, Christie Mius.
The argument began after a CARE and Newce taxi driver began to the Tokkinham police station, claiming that they refused to cover the cleaning costs after one of them was sick in the car.
The driver also claimed that one of the women broke the rear window of taxi.

Judge Peter Lauder indicated that Kiir’s actions played a role in legal procedures.
“I take the point of view of its behavior that contributed greatly to bringing this claim,” he said.
“I do not go behind the jury’s rule, but this has a great impact on the issue of costs.”
During the trial, Kiir admitted that she sought how she expressed herself but she preserved, “I feel that the message is still relevant.
“I thought he was using his strength and privilege because he accused me of being not.

It has now been revealed that the Kiir’s legal team tried to reject the case in a preliminary hearing, on the pretext that the Coronary Prosecution Service (CPS) had offended the operation.
Her lawyer, Grace Forbes, accused CPS of violating his own guidance, saying that a “loophole” in the victims ’right to review was used to justify the move forward with the case after a year of alleged crime.
During the trial, the PC Lovell was interrogated about his accidents related to the accident. Initially, the exposure was not mentioned due to the statements of Kiir, but in another statement presented in December 2023, he described the feeling as “shocked, and (the left) I feel insulted.”
