A New York actress was fired by her acting company after posting a video complaining about streets being blocked for the funeral of slain New York City police officer Jason Rivera.
Jacqueline Guzman was let go by Face to Face Films according to a statement by the company posted to Facebook.
“Face to Face Films has just been made aware of an insensitive video involving one of our members, Jacqueline Guzman. Face to Face Films does not support nor can condone these comments made about fallen Officer Rivera. As a result, she is no longer a member of our company.”
Guzman originally posted her video to her TikTok account @vinylboobs. She has since reportedly deleted her social media accounts.
“We do not need to shut down most of Lower Manhattan because of one cop died for probably doing his job incorrectly. They kill people who are under twenty-two every single day for no good reason and we don’t shut down the city for them. So, like this is f***ing ridiculous, this is f***ing ridiculous. What if somebody is having a heart attack in this area? Nobody can get to them because it’s all blocked off for one f***ing cop.”

According to a profile, Guzman is originally from Florida.
“We do not need to shut down most of Lower Manhattan because one cop died for probably doing his job incorrectly. They kill people who are under 22 every single day for no good reason and we don’t shut down the city for them,” said Jacqueline #Guzman.
