Cinnabon employee Crystal Wilsey denies she’s racist after Wisconsin outburst

The serial criminal Cinnabon employee at the center of a viral racist video in Wisconsin denied Monday that she is prejudiced, citing her “colored” son.

Disgraced former worker Crystal Wilsey, 43 — who has been charged with more than a dozen various offenses over two decades — later appeared to have badly misused the outdated term for black people, saying her boy just had darker skin because of a health condition.

Wilsey also has a lengthy rap sheet, which includes charges of child endangerment, disorderly conduct and drug possession as well as traffic offenses, court records seen by The Post show.

She lost her job after footage of her foul-mouthed, hate-filled outburst toward a Somali couple at a store branch in Ashwaubenon last week was posted on TikTok.

Wilsey repeatedly called the Somali pair filming her the n-word while also proudly declaring herself to be a racist.

The mom from Oneida has since taken to social media to defend her actions, while a fundraiser set up by her supporters has raised $110,000 and counting.

“P.S., to the racism, if you look at my Facebook from 2010, you’ll see on there that I have a blended family, and my son was colored,” she said in the voiceover to a TikTok video she published early Monday.

Wilse then later appeared to go back on her claim about having a “colored” child by saying a health condition actually made his skin darker.

“Addison’s disease, and he was discriminated called chocolate because he had brown skin – explanation of racism,” she wrote in one comment.

Addison’s disease is a rare disorder caused by an issue with the adrenal glands, which can result in darkening skin.

Court records show that Wilsey was charged with child endangerment, marijuana possession and marijuana drug paraphernalia in February 2022 related to an incident when she was pulled over by state troopers while driving in Erie County, Ohio, according to records.

Her address at the time was listed as Green Bay, Wisc.

Wilsey pleaded no contest before being sentenced to two years probation and minor fines.

She has also left a trail of legal destruction across the Midwest, with a history of more than a dozen charges dating back almost 25 years.

In June 2001, she was arrested for disorderly conduct and domestic abuse and was sentenced to 12 months probation later that year.

In September 2002, she appeared in court in Menominee County, Wisc., charged with marijuana offenses.

A year later, she was arrested for disorderly conduct in Brown County, Wisc., and pleaded no contest.

Then in January 2009, she was again arrested for disorderly conduct in Brown County and sentenced to three days in jail.

In March 2015, she was charged with driving without a license, operating a vehicle while intoxicated and driving under the influence in Hobart, Wisc., records show.

She pleaded guilty to driving while intoxicated and was jailed for 20 days.

In June 2016, she was charged with resisting arrest and disorderly conduct in Outagamie County, Wisc., and sentenced to 90 days in jail after pleading no contest to disorderly conduct.

And just two months later, in the Oneida Tribe, Wisc., she was arrested over a DUI for operating a vehicle with a revoked license and driving without insurance and pleaded guilty by not contesting the charges.

After news of Wilsey being fired came to light, a fundraising appeal was set up on her behalf, placing the blame for her racist ramblings on the two Somali customers.

“Meet Crystal: hardworking White mom doing her job at Cinnabon. Two Somali customers decide to make her shift hell with intimidation,” the donation page reads.

“Instead of banning the offenders and backing their employee, Cinnabon fires Crystal to keep the nons happy. We’re not letting this slide. Funds go to making sure Crystal lands on her feet after this betrayal.

“No White person should lose their job for refusing to be harassed by Somalians,” the post says.

As of Monday afternoon, the page has received more than $110,000 in donations.

Wilsey has defended her actions on her TikTok page when responding to critics.

A user wrote, “You are so embarrassing to the human race. Good luck finding a job from here forward,” to which Wilsey replied, “For defending and inspiring others? Okay Karen.”

Wilsey claimed that the Somali couple who took the video started the dispute and said she was merely defending herself.

“Standing up for myself and turning into a defensive individual for said reasons did not make me racist,” she said.

“The initial word could be referenced to a racial slur, except he called me racist and I returned the comment, and you have no idea what occurred previously to her recording or the harassment I endured.”
