You can't really blame the woman driving. I mean,REALLY, what are you supposed to do when you're out for a funfilled day of shoplifting with friends and some stupid store owner blocks your getaway.

Simple assault? Sounds more like assault and battery with a deadly weapon.

I bet I know who this was.....

and glad he wasn't hurt

hard to believe a 29 year old woman would stoop so low as to steal a cell phone, and then try to run over someone for it....

what a looser....and yes the charge should be a lot more, but since the storeowner wasn't hurt seriously, she'll get away with a lesser charge, that's messed up, around here you have to dead or close to it for the judge to allow a more just punishment for such dangerous and reckless behavior.....

A $704 bond!?!? For stealing and intentionally hitting someone with a car? That should have been assault with a deadly, AT LEAST. Pathetic.

Her bond looks like she got caught smoking weed instead of using a two ton vehicle as a weapon after a robbery.

how to get what you want: if you want lets say a cell phone really bad but cant afford one (prob cause you dont have a job and the food card wont pay for it) dont worry, just go into the phone store with a few other losers and take one. yeah, thats right, you can take sh** that dont belong to you. and when the store manager stands behind your car-run him/her over steal their phone and BAM! thats how to get 2 for 1. not saying that this theif gets public assistance in any way but if they do i think it should be cut out. dont reward criminal behavior.

Do the crime, pay the time. She and her little gang should all ha ve to serve jail time or better yet community service. This type of justice system is why criminals commit the crimes, they are not scared of what their sentence will be cause usually it is not one. The store owner on the other hand, had he tried to protect himself by firing at the car or grabbing of the suspects he would have been charged with attempted murder or assault with a deadly weapon. These person intentionally set out to rob from the store and got away with it. Come Natchez get a gripand get the thugs off the street of let the stor owners handle the problems with no reprecussions. TRASH WALKS OUR STREETS and hard working people must pay the sacrafice of owning a business. If you steal, cut off the hand that stole, if you urder, be murdered, if you rape, castrate, and so on. Pisses me off that justice is never served accordingly.

They do it because they can,they do it because they get away with it. They are mean people with no respect for anything or anyone. They don,t care and never will. They were raised to do this kind of stuff. Taught from a early age and when someone questions them or trys to punish them,they scream bloody murder. It,s all they do constantly day in and day out. It won,t change till blood runs all in the streets and that,s coming one day in the not to distant future.

butch, I agree with you, if the druggies and the thieves can pack arms and get away with it, all people, business owner or not should get a gun permit to protect what is rightfully theirs. It makes me sick that this town has gotten to the state that it has, just a smaller version of Jackson. You bet if I am approached by a potential criminal and he or she poses a threat, there will be a phone call such as the one on Sling Blade. You may want to send a hearse. I am not going to take s**t off anybody. Its time we all pull together to get the thugs off the streets and not be afraid to go outside.

A lot of people out there think they are owed something. That is what happens when you start giving away services others have to pay for. Personally I don't owe anyone sh-t and if you come knocking at my door looking to steal you won't make it back to your vehicle.

The charge is all that Mississippi law would allow. There are no assault & battery charges- it all falls under simple assault in MS. It only moves up when extreme circumstances are involved and if the owner was released then the other elements of the crime probably were not there. As far as other charges, the store owner will have to be the one to file charges if the crime is a misd. since it did not happen in front of police.

I agree with you Lifeboat. When someone hit my car once, they didn't have insurance and the judge ask if I had any. And you know the rest, mine paid and nothing happened to the guy. They know that you can't get blood out of a turnip so that's why they do it. And they know we honest people will end up paying for it anyway. And her or her job's insurance will pay her medical this time too.

Butch and others....

in case you didn't know- in MS business owners and home owners can carry a firearm already without a permit, and there is also the castle walk law, which allows business owners to carry their weapon on their castle walk from business to home. Also there is a no retreat clause, in case of intrusion you do not have to retreat before using deadly force when you determine your life or property is in jeopardy. Also MS is a open carry state, ANYONE can carry a firearm out in the open and in their vehicle, but you cannot carry a weapon concealed without a permit in public places. Also you cannot carry your weapon in the open into restricted places. That's my understanding, please correct me if needed.

I think the store owner could have shot the tires out of this car once she tried to hit him with the car without any problem, and actually, if he was in fear of his life from her aggressive actions with her car trying to run him over, he could have shot her, but he would had a lot of explaining over that I"m sure, he might have even faced some charges, but likely got off .....

anyway, I wish he had drug her out of the car and whooped her good before the policd got there......

People that commit these crimes should have to do community service. There are enough thugs around here they could fix the cities grass cutting problem for little cost. And while they are push mowing medians they can where signs on their backs that say " I stole from_ _ _ _". I think this is not a bad idea.

pbnj, WalMart in Hattiesburg makes them walk their sidewalks with signs after they are caught shoplifting. That is really messed up with the light charges. Maybe the store involved can press civil charges against her once the criminal charges are done. They would do it if one of their employees had done it, so why not stick it to her twice?
