please tell me..what kind of sicko pushed a woman down and spits on her?

 

that's what happened at ucf last week. a jogger was running on campus when a man did just that. it is so strange that the investigators aren't sure if the man was trying to commit a crime or if he is just an odd duck..i say both!

Its a sick world out there and most of the thanks goes to the court system that fails to protect us. While the courts would rather put someone in jail for smoking pot, to do that they have to let a real criminal out(one like the sicko in this story).

Maybe she was wearing an Obama shirt?

I think this guy did a good thing by showing just how vulnerable that jogger was to a more agressive attack! But I'm sure others including the police and that jogger won't look at it like that! But who knows...it was a wake up call and if the wrong person would have been waiting for a jogger to come along it could have been worse so it should be looked at as a wake up call! However, if that was the case as I described then this guy went a bit to far to make his point by spitting on this jogger, that was way out of line! The guy didn't need to go that far to make the point!

I'd say the guy is mentally challenge. Lamest attack I've ever heard of. He was right though, "You should never jog by yourself." She's lucky it was spit and not rape.

Just an innocent jogger..... Somehow, I think there just might be a tad bit more background here...

But Borntobewild makes a great point! Joggers as well as ANYONE that avails themself in public as a target of opportunity needs to be a little more vigil with their own safety!

Battery by bodily fluids is actually a true crime, but I bet next time we will run looking around a little more.

The sort of person that doesn't deserve to be in existence. I ask you to keep this in mind. The world is not worse than it was in the past... just televised more. We live in a time where information is @ our fingertips. Things will never be perfect... only semi-perfect. :)

Shannon welcome to the 21st century, is it not great!, I find it strange that as a reporter and coming from California you are surprise at the occurrence, now we have what the liberals and followers voted for, no security even on campus and no respect for a "female", I remember when people used to jog, the walkers USE to give them the right of way and then give them a compliment as "you doing pretty good", now the compliment is "get the #@$% out the way you %#@$ idiot or been pulled into the bushes and raped, or into a car or spit on. Again give thank to the liberals and their friend the ACLU.

shannon -- you called it -- sicko. Every age and every society will have its share of them. What distresses me is how they are being dealt with. They need to be removed from society.

Secondly, spitting on someone is assault. It's a crime, pure and simple.

The person who did that to the jogger needs to have the living tar knocked out of him. Granted, ANY female with a lick of sense SHOULD know better than to be out running alone in this twisted world we live in. However, that doesn't give anyone the right to knock someone to the ground, sit on them and spit on them, while trying to give them Instructions For Safer Jogging." What he did to her constitutes Assault, and HIS sorry fanny should be sitting in jail, right now!

. . . Ok, hold on, I'm waiting for the Disney blue birds and Charlie Brown popping hearts that I see everytime I see a Shanon Photo . . . Thinking of Nancy Pelosi . . . OK! That shocked me back!

Time for GOOD responsible citizens to carry the personal compact TASER that is now available. It would have been a GREAT ending with this sicko twitching on the ground. Of course they should run background checks and make it very difficult for those with criminal histories to get their hands on them.

That's Shannon with 2 ens. SEE what happens?! It's terrible! I bet there are car wrecks all around you Shannon! Guys wrecking Aston Martins and not even caring. The cops asking what caused it and them saying . . . "Blue Birds and Popping Hearts".
