FAIRVIEW HEIGHTS (KMOX) - An East St. Louis couple is charged with beating an elderly employee at a Metro East Best Buy.
It’s considered normal procedure by most to be asked for your receipt while leaving a busy store like Best Buy with expensive items. But Latoya Greenwood, 38, didn’t take kindly to the request.
Police say she began shouting obscenities at the 61-year-old Fairview Heights Best Buy employee at the exit door. Her husband got into the act and smacked the man across the face, sending him down to the ground while his wife didn’t flinch and kept the curse words flying.

I’ve often felt like doing much worse things to Best Buy employees, but have always managed to refrain. I hope they throw the book at them.
Honestly, I don’t understand why people even go to a Best Buy anymore. I guess if someone MUST see(or touch) an item they can order off Amazon or some place online for MUCH less(without having to be bothered by the annoying/clueless employees).
Dollars to donuts the employee was white. Of course the authorities will categorize the attack as an “economic” crime, not a “hate crime”. Blacks are “incapable” of hate crimes.
Did they have any stuff they didn’t have receipts for?
That is why we all now have to show them when leaving the store.
People pay for stuff at the service desk and then “go shopping” some more.
Hope they get jail time.
Don’t be silly.
Latoya is a perfectly common Amish name.
do tell
It gets better. I think she is a local politician and the man was an athlete or something. I am too tired to go look it up.
East St. Louis. Need I say more? :)
Here is the other thread. It shows more info regarding the perps. The rest of the thread is an argument regarding whether BB can ask for proof of purchase/receipt.

Wow! She is/was a counselwoman?
61 is elderly?
Fairview Heights IL is 65% white.
Fairview Heights IL is 65% white.
Like my tagline says.....
Yeah, she white?
“Latoya” Need I say more?
That’s Councilwoman Latoya, to you, honky.
I stopped reading at “An East St. Louis couple”.
That's what I was thinking. I'm almost 64 and I would have put the dillweed on the ground.
Blacks are the New Royalty, and no one may now question them, no matter what sort of crap they attempt to pull off; nevertheless, this is a case of assault and battery, and prison time needs to be assigned.
Whether that will happen is anybody’s guess.
