Rantz: Prolific offender accused in brutal assault; media ignores that the suspect is homeless

A prolific offender was charged for an alleged brutal assault against a 62-year-old nurse walking out of a Seattle light rail station. Police say the suspect is homeless.

Alexander Jay, 40, is charged with second-degree assault. The King County Prosecutor’s Office (KCPO) says surveillance video shows Jay throwing the victim down a flight of stairs multiple times. The victim suffered three broken ribs and a broken clavicle.

The media doesn’t mention the accused is homeless. And even though it mattered at the time, the Seattle Times withheld the suspect’s race.

The surveillance footage is difficult to watch. It’s a brutal assault.

The victim is seen walking up the stairs, exiting Union Station just before noon on March 2. The suspect in the footage, identified as Jay by KCPO, is seen running up the escalator to meet the victim at the top of the stairwell.

I can only wonder if the Homelessness of the suspect is more pertinent than the Race.

Methinks, we have a race problem in this country and maybe we need different approach to that particular problem.
I do know this diversity crap is not working out too well.

I was just watching a investigative report about the use of private security by firms in Seattle. Boston(?) is about the same size and population and has 2,000 cops; Seattle has 1,000.

Amazon alone has about 1,000 people working security!

The reporter was with a security guy driving around. Some street guy comes up and is hollering and waving a bag of chips at the driver’s window. The security guy says no thanks and the guy yells even louder and the driver drives off. “Yeah that’s Bob. He’s got issues but he’s harmless.”

At the next stop another street guy rides up on a bike and yells at and the security guy. Getting in his face for “hassling” Bob, etc. The security guy undoes his seatbelt and rests his hand on his pistol. Bike guy yells a few more times and rides off.

“That’s Fred - he isn’t harmless. He is usually carrying a gun. A few months ago he was standing in the middle of the intersection waving a gun around and yelling. He’s obviously out now again.”

A jail in another country away from civilization would be fitting for these violent ferals.
