Tragic. I thought violent crime was on the decline. Hoping for a speedy recovery for the lady. And hoping that the justice system doesn’t give the culprit a slap on the wrist
So because the gun crime isnt at an all time high the stabbings are rising. Wtf is wrong with ppl. You have to be crazy to stab or cut someone. Its not cowardly from a distance like a gun…. you have to get up close and personal. The old lady should known something he didnt and put that knife right up his a**. Poor woman I hope she recovers quickly. And the person that stabbed her better hope she dont have no crazy family.
