A New York City<\/a> college professor who threatened a reporter while wielding a machete in May, pled guilty in court on Monday to menacing.<\/p>\n

As part of the plea deal, 45-year-old Shellyne Rodriguez must complete 13 months of behavioral therapy.<\/p>\n

Her next court date is scheduled for May 15, 2024, which is intended to ensure Rodriguez complies with the terms of the plea agreement.<\/p>\n

In May, Rodriguez was seen on video lunging from her apartment and into the hallway where she held a machete to veteran New York Post reporter Reuven Fenton\u2019s throat.<\/p>\n

Fenton knocked on her door for comment after Rodriguez, then a professor at Hunter College<\/a>, lashed out at students at a table with anti-abortion materials.<\/p>\n

Rodriguez reportedly blasted the anti-abortion material as “f- – -ing propaganda” before throwing items from the display.<\/p>\n

After lunging at Fenton, Rodriguez followed him to the street, NYPD said, and chased him with a machete.<\/p>\n

On May 25, she turned herself into police after allegedly threatening to chop up the reporter with a machete.<\/p>\n

She was charged with fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon<\/a> and menacing.<\/p>\n

Rodriguez has since been fired from Hunter College and now works at the Cooper Union School of Art, which is a private school in Manhattan.<\/p>\n

She is listed as an adjunct professor on the school\u2019s website, which also says she is teaching a 3-credit sculpture class during the fall semester.<\/p>\n

Rodriguez is also involved in a federal lawsuit with the New York City Police Department<\/a>, which she has accused of “executing a brutal trap for and assault on the protestors” during Black Lives Matter protest on June 4, 2020.<\/p>\n

The protest was in response to George Floyd\u2019s murder by then-Minneapolis police officers.<\/p>\n

At the time, NYC had an 8 p.m. curfew in place. Fifteen minutes before the curfew was enacted, Rodriguez claimed the NYPD trapped them and would not let them leave.<\/p>\n

“At around 8 p.m., the police then began a brutal physical assault on the protesters, beating them with fists, batons and bicycles; deploying pepper spray; and employing similar violence,” the federal lawsuit says.\u00a0<\/p>\n

About 250 people were allegedly arrested that night, including Rodriguez, and the NYPD allegedly held them in tight quarters during the height of the\u00a0COVID-19 pandemic<\/a>, according to the lawsuit.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The NYPD denied the accusations in court filings last March. The case continues to wind its way through the judicial system.\u00a0<\/p>\n
