Washington Post reporter Felicia Sonmez has reportedly been suspended from the publication after tweeting about the Kobe Bryant rape case in the wake of his tragic death. Though it initially appeared that her suspension stemmed from the tweets themselves, The Washington Post has reportedly claimed the decision came in response to her sharing a screenshot from her email inbox.
On Sunday, as the nation mourned the tragic death of the beloved basketball star, who died in a helicopter crash, Felicia Sonmez sought to remind everyone that Bryant had been accused of rape in 2003, charges that were eventually dismissed after his accuser told prosecutors that she would not testify in court.
