The award-winning artist who survived being shoved into a moving Manhattan train heartbreakingly needed her mom to wipe away her tears at her attacker’s sentencing Wednesday — after the senseless attack left her paralyzed from the shoulders down. Turkish born artist Emine Ozsoy, 38, tore into DoorDash driver Kamal Semrade in Manhattan Supreme Court — who showed no signs of remorse and refused to apologize for forever changing her life and leaving her quadriplegic after he threw her into a train at the 63rd Street and Lexington Avenue subway station in May 2023. “I am in this condition because of this evil action,” Ozsoy said from a motorized wheelchair during her victim impact statement.
