ST. PAUL, Minn. – A man on his way to anger management class became angry and struck a woman, authorities said.

Justin John Boudin, 27, pleaded guilty Friday to fifth-degree assault in Ramsey County District Court and can expect to face a sentence for time served in jail, at least 120 days, and probation when he is sentenced May 5, the county attorney's office said.

According to a criminal complaint, Boudin was waiting at a bus stop on Aug. 29 when he accosted a 59-year-old woman and others.

“Why don't you show me some respect?” he allegedly yelled at the woman.

When she took out a cell phone to call police, he hit her in the face, according to the complaint. When a 63-year-old man tried to stop Boudin, Boudin hit him with a blue folder – which fell on the ground – and fled.

Police tracked him down through the folder, which included Boudin's anger management homework and his name, the complaint said.

“you won’t believe what happened to my homework!”
If he really did go to class and try to explain what happened, it would be the best lost-homework excuse in history. But he probably didn't go. Or if he did, he said his dog ate it.

This is one of those guys that we read about a few days ago... Too many people in jail. We need to let some of them out to reduce the prison population.

Does this guy work for Hillary’s John McCains's campaign?

Better question.

He’s going to need more than anger management class. He’s violent, and likely mentally ill.

I would tend to lean toward the latter.

Yes, we don't use 'early release' enough.

When the prison gets crowded, we need to find as many of the worst offenders as it takes to clear beds, and release them from this mortal coil early to visit their Father for a stern interrogation & lecture.

From his statement to the people at the bus stop, it might be surmised that he is hearing voices. He could be a paranoid schizophrenic.

"pleaded guilty Friday to fifth-degree assault"

Fifth-degree assault? What is that -- harsh language?

Minnesota man pleads guilty to striking woman on the way to anger management class

What sort of teaching do headline writers receive these days? The headline clearly implies that the woman was on the way to the class; the man may have been as well.

"Man en route to anger management class strikes woman; pleads guilty."

If the story took place in St. Paul, I'm not quite sure why it would be necessary to explicitly specify a "Minnesota" man; wouldn't people in St. Paul be presumed to be from in-state unless specified otherwise?

Because he doesn't deserve it? It's a two way street. Treat people with respect and you'll get it back.

Huh? I thought the folder fled?
