Woman walking to memorial for slain Oakland baker is violently attacked in robbery
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | May 9, 2023 | Joel Umanzor

A woman who was on her way to a memorial for an Oakland baker who was slain was herself violently attacked in a robbery by two teen girls in Berkeley, according to police and a social media post.

Police said two teens — described as 13 and 15 years old — pulled the woman to the ground before hitting, kicking and stomping her head as she walked near Sacramento and Derby streets at around 5:10 p.m. Sunday, police said.

The girls then stole the victim’s bag off her shoulder and her cell phone out of her hand, police said, before fleeing the area in a black four-door sedan driven by a man who authorities said was in his 20s.

Officers found the woman with “numerous injuries” including an eye which had swollen shut and lacerations to her face and body, authorities said.

A friend of the victim who asked not to be named said in a now-deleted Twitter post that the victim was on her way to a memorial service for Jen Angel in Oakland on Sunday when the attack happened.

Angel was killed during a February robbery in Oakland in which she was dragged by a getaway car. During her life, Angel advocated for restorative justice — an approach to justice that focuses on rehabilitating offenders through reconciliation with victims.

Kind of hard to reconcile with a dead victim.

Two really bad crimes. I am trying really hard not to laugh, smile or smirk. But, there are things in this universe that are so predictable.

“Friends of this murder victim said she would have been against putting her killer in prison.”

Oh, bummer. Maybe she can swap time in the hospital for the killer’s time in prison?

Only when aggressors step things up a bit will the Urban Leftists realize their true threat (hint, it’s not Trump, nor Putin, that threatens them).

I starting to suspect they feel they’re martyrs. True believers. Their faith is quite impressive.

I always characterize the predominant characteristic of libs as “insufferable self righteousness.” I agree with you that these occurrences seems only to reinforce this characteristic of these simpletons

Well, maybe a hit to the brain box will reboot the common sense in this idiot. Unlikely, but maybe.

Pros who study this say people who aren’t members of a religion will find a substitute as religious-style belief is in our DNA. Even atheists do it. Halloween is now known as ‘Atheist Christmas’.

I read that, and assumed it meant to restore the world to the conditions that prevailed when the criminals in question did not exist.
