LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) - A former University of Kentucky student has been sentenced in connection with an assault on campus.

Sophia Rosing pleaded guilty in August.

The incident happened in November 2022. A video shows Rosing in a dorm, hitting and shouting racial slurs at a Black student worker.

A grand jury had previously indicted her on six counts , including assault and public intoxication. As part of a plea deal, the assault third-degree charge against her was amended to assault fourth-degree-minor injury. She pleaded guilty to the other charges.

Thursday, Rosing was sentenced to 12 months in jail, 100 hours of community service and a $25 fine.

The University of Kentucky permanently banned her from campus after the incident.
