to the point that management was changing her shifts so that she could avoid him. harsh, my ***!! he was a stalker, and that was assault and battery. this entitled little creep needs to be out of circulation for a long, long, time.

you might want to look at a couple of threads on DU recently about the mentality of this person:

there has to be more to this story dhol82 Jan 2013 #1

This is in another story.. pipoman Jan 2013 #6

No, there doesn't. This is battery. It's not "cute" or "whimsical" or "puckish". It's battery Recursion Jan 2013 #43

Subtle. One step above a cave-man club and dragging her by her hair. TwilightGardener Jan 2013 #2

A guy tried that on me once, years ago. silverweb Jan 2013 #3

Actually "battery"...eom pipoman Jan 2013 #7

Thanks. silverweb Jan 2013 #8

Assault is saying or threatening in action, battery is touching..generally.. pipoman Jan 2013 #12

Sounds like he was stalking her: Butterbean Jan 2013 #5

Definitely assault of some kind. librabear Jan 2013 #10

It's battery. Assault would be threatening to handcuff her. Recursion Jan 2013 #54

If it was stalking, it sure as hell IS appropriate. kestrel91316 Jan 2013 #14

I was hit on a lot by my male co workers when I was young Butterbean Jan 2013 #15

what crap reporting!! "bad date" and romantic advances= unwelcome stalking. bettyellen Jan 2013 #50

Changing HER shifts? Why the hell didn't they just fire HIM Ken Burch Jan 2013 #19

i wondered that myself. niyad Jan 2013 #25

I said it "seems harsh" based on the article - which didn't go into any detail AAO Jan 2013 #28

all the additional information helps. but even in the first article, the bastard handcuffs a woman niyad Jan 2013 #31

You're right - I changed the title. AAO Jan 2013 #57

thank you niyad Jan 2013 #58

Seems about right to me, given the context cthulu2016 Jan 2013 #17

Stalking, assault, battery, terrorization -- he was harsh on her all right Hekate Jan 2013 #20

I commented on the OP article, left a lot of questions AAO Jan 2013 #29

Good. I guess his white male privilege didn't mitigate his sentence. (nt) Nye Bevan Jan 2013 #21

Actually, that privilege may have kept him from being fired or arrested much, much earlier. Ken Burch Jan 2013 #26

I have to agree with you when you pointed out upthread that the response was Nye Bevan Jan 2013 #27

as a matter of curiousity, why is the word victim in quotation marks? niyad Jan 2013 #32

Those aren't quotations marks; they're asterisks Orrex Jan 2013 #42

thank you-- I did not see the asterisks--apparently not enough caffeine this morning. niyad Jan 2013 #44

MORE COFFEE!! Orrex Jan 2013 #45

making a second pot now! niyad Jan 2013 #46

I don't think it's harsh at all. sibelian Jan 2013 #24

Really? Cause to me that sounds like battery and sexual harrassment (nt) Recursion Jan 2013 #30

How for the freak of shite does this seem HARSH? Chorophyll Jan 2013 #33

This dude is a weirdo madokie Jan 2013 #34

I feel worse for him Orrex Jan 2013 #35

wow. and in those minutes did she have any control to run away? being the sick fuck seabeyond Jan 2013 #36

As a matter of policy, I do not use the sarcasm smiley Orrex Jan 2013 #37

wooosh. relief. lol. thanks you. nt seabeyond Jan 2013 #38

:evilgrin: Orrex Jan 2013 #40

Sounds like psychiatric treatment would have been more appropriate. n/t WhoIsNumberNone Jan 2013 #39

There is definately more to the story... I think they guy is just plain stupid. Glassunion Jan 2013 #41

that wasn't enough? what part of the stalking, etc. did you not get? niyad Jan 2013 #47

That's exactly my point. Glassunion Jan 2013 #48

and my point is that you clearly did not read the rest of the information in this thread, which niyad Jan 2013 #49

Ooh my bad... I did not realize it against the DU rules to read an OP and the linked article Glassunion Jan 2013 #51

the point is, the information was in any number of the posts in this thread, which you had niyad Jan 2013 #56

Too bad he didn't try that little stunt with a woman like my daughter. Ikonoklast Jan 2013 #52
