Settlement reached between Marjorie Taylor Greene’s ex-husband, Muslim women he verbally harassed, civil rights group says

ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) - Perry Greene, the ex-husband of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, has reached a settlement with three young Muslim women he verbally harassed at an Alpharetta shopping center last month, according to a national civil rights group.

The Georgia chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) said Friday that Greene and the women had reached a settlement “to resolve all claims” over the incident, which was caught on camera in the parking lot of the Avalon shopping mall on Sunday, May 30.

The women said they put a prayer rug in an empty parking space, and were trying to pray before going to the shopping center to enjoy Eid al-Fitr, which marks the end of Ramadan.

That’s when Perry Greene first walked by and threw curse words at them, they said. Greene then got into a Tesla Cybertruck and continued his tirade, which is when the women started recording.

He told the women to go back to their country multiple times — though they were all born and raised in Georgia — and said they were worshipping a false god.

In a statement, Alpharetta police called Greene’s comments “disgusting” but said he didn’t commit a crime and won’t face charges.

On Friday, CAIR announced it will hold a press conference with the women and the women’s attorney at 10:30 a.m. on Monday, April 14, to provide details on the settlement with Greene.

Last Friday, CAIR held a press conference with Greene, during which he publicly apologized to the women.

“I just wanted them to know that I humbly apologize to them because nobody should be treated that way, and that’s not the right way for us to treat anybody with any differences,” Greene said at the press conference last Friday after attending a prayer event with Muslim leaders. “Hopefully they’ll find it in their hearts to forgive me.”

Atlanta News First reached out to Greene for comment Friday but did not immediately hear back.
