> Minnesota mom who called autistic boy, 5, the N-word in horrifying, viral video will face trial

A trial date has been set for a Minnesota mom accused of launching a racist tirade against a 5-year-old black child at a playground in a shocking viral video, before painting herself as the victim and raising hundreds of thousands of dollars through a fundraiser.

Shiloh Hendrix, 36, was charged with three counts of disorderly conduct stemming from the horrific incident on April 28 in Rochester, Minn.

The bigot’s trial is scheduled to begin on Aug. 31 next year, with a pre-trial hearing set for Aug. 21, prosecutors announced Thursday, according to ABC 6 News.

Hendrix — who has previous convictions for driving under the influence, disorderly conduct and brawling — has pleaded not guilty to the charges against her.

The blond, white woman went viral in early May after she was filmed by 30-year-old Sharmake Omar, who confronted her after she allegedly called a 5-year-old boy the N-word.

She repeated the vile slur multiple times during the short video, branding the boy a drain on the welfare system.

The 49-second clip shows Hendrix carrying her son and walking away from Omar, as he asks her to explain her actions and she admits to calling the child the hateful word.

“Mind your f–king own business,” Hendrix responded, accusing the boy of stealing items from her son’s diaper bag.
