Granddaughter of Antioch, Woodstock car dealerships’ owner apologizes for mimicking monkey in viral Ring video

An 18-year-old Ole Miss student whose grandfather owns Kunes Auto Group, with dealerships in Antioch and Woodstock, apologized for mimicking a monkey at Black students’ door in a viral video and said she and her family got death threats. Alaina Kunes, 18, a freshman at the University of Mississippi, apologized in a statement released Tuesday through her attorneys at Gardiner Koch Weisberg & Wrona. A spokesperson for Kunes confirmed to TMJ4 News that she is the daughter of Scott Kunes, the former chief operating officer of Kunes Auto Group, and that she has withdrawn from the university. Scott Kunes left the COO role in February and has no ownership stake in the company, which is owned by his father — Alaina Kunes’ grandfather — Gregg Kunes, the law firm said.
