EXCLUSIVE:Â A 79-year-old Somali American woman in Minnesota, who was shot by an assailant ultimately released with the help of a bail fund supported by Vice President Kamala Harris, is speaking out against the vice president, telling Fox News Digital that her record raised questions about her "judgment and priorities in office."Â
Halima Farah, who came to the U.S. in 2005 and became a citizen in 2011, recounted her "traumatic experience" on Jan. 2, 2021. She was shot and robbed of her rent money outside her Minneapolis apartment by De'Seanna Williams, police said at the time. Farah said she suffered bone fractures to her shoulder blade and skull, hemorrhages in her skull, lacerations on her face and had a gunshot wound to her upper thigh and buttocks area.Â
Williams was arrested after the attack but was bailed out by the Minnesota Freedom Fund, a fund that Harris promoted during the George Floyd riots in 2020.Â
In a blog post on Medium on May 31, 2020, then-Sen. Harris asked for individuals to "make a contribution to the Minnesota Freedom Fund, an organization working on the ground in Minnesota to post bail for arrested protesters."Â

Harris also posted in support of the Minnesota Freedom Fund that June as protests over the police death of Floyd in Minneapolis swept the country.
"If you're able to, chip in now to the @MNFreedomFund to help post bail for those protesting on the ground in Minnesota," she posted, along with a link to donate.Â
