Okay, I did. Then we watched the video again several time. Here's Mrs. Logan's response.
"The woman came at him. He backed up as far as he could in the elevator. She kept coming. You can't tell from the video if he used his fist or just swatted her away with his left hand. The real damage looks to have been done when her head bounced off the steel rail. Had he wanted to injure her, he surely could have done so while she was out on the floor."
"She's not going to be able to damage this man, and he over-reacted. She egged him on. He has every right to have charged her with assault. Just because an assault fails doesn't make it less of a crime."
"A man should not hit a women, but then a woman shouldn't hit a man. In preschool, we have to constantly teach the kids not to hit. These people are adults and both of them should have known better."
"Before they got onto the elevator she was swatting at him. She ran into the door while boarding. She, and possibly both of them, appear to have been drinking. A scenario for over-reaction."
I'm not excusing what he did, but then she shouldn't be excused either."
“You can’t tell from the video if he used his fist or just swatted her away with his left hand. “
The last time I saw someone go down like that it was in a boxing match and he was down for the count.
“Before they got onto the elevator she was swatting at him.”
I noticed earlier in the post the reference to swatting. Like his swat may be no worse than hers ...
” The real damage looks to have been done when her head bounced off the steel rail. “
Yea, and he had no concern for her possible injuries. Out cold and he never bothered to check. What a moron.
