http://www.kptv.com/story/36410153/starbucks-robbery-suspect-may-sue-good-samaritan-who-stopped-him

His mother, Pamela Chimienti, told KGRE that she does not condone her son’s actions, but thinks Jerri used excessive force when trying to stop him.

“The guy, in my opinion, went from Good Samaritan to vigilante,” she said. “Stabbing somebody that many times -- it doesn’t take that many stab wounds to get somebody to succumb to you.”

Chimienti said her son was stabbed 17 times, and plans to sue Jerri for his injuries.

Police Chief Jerry Dyer said Jerri feared for his life, and that it’s apparent in the video.

“To say that Cregg Jerri is going to be sued for intervening in an armed robbery and being stabbed in the neck, that’s ridiculous!” Dyer told KGRE.

Jerri has not been charged in the incident.

There is no way the criminal should sue but...

What was the old dude thinking?!? I enjoy Starbucks but as long as no one's life is in danger I ain't getting involved. I'll provide a description and look out the window to see what he's driving but after that I don't really care if Starbucks loses a hour of latte money. You notice there were no Starbuck employees running to help him. And if dipshit criminal does sue the guy I bet Starbucks isn't contributing to this guy's legal bills.

Ha! What was this old dude thinking? Did you see the way he was punching the guy? Rather like he was powdering a babies butt.
I guess he got triggered.
 
This kid's shitty behavior is a direct result of the mother's denial. I've known alot of people like this. No matter what shitty shit their asshole kid is pulling, it's always one of the friends fault, bad influences, bad teachers or any other excuse that steers clear of their own household. It's harder for some parents than others to admit their kids are assholes.

My dad always told me, don't be an asshole son, be a whole ass
 
When I was a wee lad, around 7 years old, my dad and I were at the old Kienow's grocery store on Lombard. We were almost out of the door and a robber says freeze and has a gun to one of the ladies at the register. My dad, a weightlifter, so pretty full of himself/confident, began to pray and walked toward the robber. The robber grabbed the bag of money and got spooked by my dad and a chase pursued. I went out the door and they ran out the opposite door but came back around and ran right by me. They went off down the street in the darkness. I went crying to my mom who was in the car. Police came and my dad came back 5-10 minutes later and the police apprehended the robber as my dad told them the area/bushes he tried to hide in. No physical altercation, but my dad did receive a letter of thanks from the State of Oregon. Oh...and it was found that the gun was fake :)
 
Mid 90s working at a car lot washing cars on NE Sandy, me and my boy saw a guy start beating up a woman right on the sidewalk in front of the dealership showroom. Looked up and about 5 car salesman were just starring and pointing, not doing anything. I was still an MP in the National Guard at the time. Ran over and took that fool down. He didn't see it coming. Didn't have to really do anything, just ran up and tackled him from behind and he got knocked out hitting the ground. The woman was just laying there crying and bleeding. Cops came and took a report and arrested the guy.
Shit head general manager of the dealership said that he was going to fire me for getting involved. He changed his mind later, but if anything, I thought I'd get a pack on the back, not a kick in the ass.

The old dude was thinking, "I have watched WWE many times and if I hit the guy with a chair, he'll go right down."

Had a very similar experience myself. But the kick in the ass came differently. Almost immediately after downing the womans assailant, she was hammering the hell out me. Had to back right out of there, back step, back step.

My "brush with criminals" story is that I was walking around the track at Jackson Middle School with my mom and my future wife. It was pretty late at night and the track doesn't have any lighting. We had our German Shepherd with us, but we had never had any issues before. We saw someone with a flashlight walking around the outside of the school, and then walk inside. At first we thought it was a janitor because they had been known to work at night, but then we saw the flashlight inside one of the rooms and that seemed very strange so we called 911. I watched as the guy walked outside of the school and down a path and out of sight. I thought about following him but I didn't want to leave my wife and my mother alone, and I didn't know if the guy was armed. We didn't really get a good enough look at him to identify him because it was so dark. The cops caught the guy with a big bag, but they couldn't search it and I couldn't identify him. Part of me wishes that I had kept the guy in sight until the cops arrived, but I don't think it was worth our safety.

Another story that I didn't see, but it indirectly involved me. Back when I was doing the airsoft thing, we were putting on a competition at a rundown old house in Milwaukie. We had teams that were waiting for our call. They didn't know where they were going exactly, or when, so they had to just wait in civilian gear before showing up and gearing up and going through our scenario.

One team had a member who worked for a company that outfitted police vehicles. He had borrowed the display SUV model with all the bells and whistles. They were at the Fred Meyer in Milwaukie when they saw a shoplifter come running out of the store with security on his tail yelling at him. He tried to get in his car and take off, but the guys blocked him in, got him out of the car, and got him zip tied. It was a pretty funny story. The Clackamas County Sheriff showed up and arrested him, and then later came down to our event and watched our guys go through the scenario. I still think they were crazy for getting involved, but it was in the heat of the moment.

A few times she was "tried" by adult shoplifters. That never went well for the shoplifter.

It seems like these days they don't want employees to even engage shoplifters. Just let them leave and call the police.
 
A long time ago, I think I was 18, I worked at fred meyers. I worked closing mostly. I didn't live far away so I walked both ways. One night, I had gotten off and started walking up the street. I heard a woman saying leave me alone. I looked ahead and saw a woman at a bustop being harrased by some guy. At first I thought it might be her boyfriend, but then I saw that he kept grabbing her and touching her. And she kept saying leave me alone. She was saying it louder and louder and seemed very agitated, so I moved a little quicker and got over to them and told the guy to leave her alone. He looked at me and laughed as if to waive me off and told me it wasn't my business. Again, seeing how agitated she was, I said leave her alone. He said its not your fucking business man now get the fuck out of here. I said I'm making it my business. Leave her alone.
He then pulled out a knife, flipped the blade out and said what are you going to do about it. I took a step foward and told him you have one more chance to leave her alone and get the fuck out of here. He lunged at me. I sidestepped kicked his leg out, through an elbow to his neck and knocked him down. In the process somehow he was able to stab me in my shoulder on the way down. Not only did he stab me, the knife was sticking out of my shoulder, still in my fucking shoulder. He got up and looked at me, looked at the knife in my shoulder. I looked back at him and without taking my eyes off him pulled the knife out, and said get the fuck out of here. He turned and ran. I stood with the woman till her bus came then went home and patched my self up. Still have a scar from it on my shoulder.

That was an intense story. I'm sorry you got stabbed, but I enjoyed reading it.

Scar on shoulder pics or it didn't happen.

Another story from a guy I work with. He went to a friend's apartment to get a haircut. He was looking out the window at her patio, first floor. A Mexican guy strolled up and grabbed a bicycle and took off.

Ryan and his friend ran out and hopped in the truck to go looking for the guy. Ryan is riding shotgun and he sees a guy up ahead. That's HIM and according to Ryan he jumped out of the truck while it is still rolling and tackled the guy on the bike.

Dude doesn't speak English but they fight over the bike and Ryan and his buddy take it and head back to the apartment.

They walk the bike up to her door and she says "that's not the bike"

Her daughter speaks Spanish and they head back out and find the guy they tackled and give him the bike back. The daughter explains what happened and the poor guy just takes his bike and rides off.

Even if fake I laughed when he told me.

I had a similar experience...

My dad insisted on giving me his 2007 Buick Lacrosse with all of the extras in it.

The next month, here I was scrubbing the floor of our dining room in the house we are renting in Seattle in the process of moving into a home we bought. The house we were living in was built right into a hill with a steep grade on it. As I was putting the finishing touches on our move out of the rental house, mopping the dining room floor, I heard a loud crashing noise that was coming from my left.As I looked out the window, I saw my Dad’s Buick parked on the hill and just downhill from the Buick was a boy that couldn’t be more than 12 years old picking up his large banana board style skateboard. I saw an adult male who I could only assume was this boy’s father, emerge from the alley just uphill from our home.The boy, with his skateboard cradled in his arms, ran uphill to his father and the man and boy continued on their way.

I ran outside and looked at my dad’s Buick. And, there, right next to the front license plate was this skinny rectangular dent.The depth of the rectangular dent was curved, just like you would expect to see from the front of a skateboard. The dent really wasn’t that big of a deal but, I was pissed that this kid's dad who had seen his son crash into someone else's car and fled the scene.

I told my wife , “Get in the car.” We both got in the car and I told her what had happened. Here we were in the Buick hunting for this father and son.I spotted them. They were on the sidewalk about three blocks away. I pulled up along side them and lowered the window on the passenger side.I called out to them “Hey!”The father asked, “what?”I yelled at him “Your kid hit my car!”The young boy just sheepishly looked down at the ground, holding his skateboard, as his father repeatedly denied the event ever occurred and claimed that they were never even on my street.As the father continued to deny what I knew to be true, I started pondering what I expected to happen.What was I going to do?Call the police? I decided that there was nothing further I could do. I yelled “You are doing a horrible job of teaching your son to be honest.” I sped off in the Buick and in my rear view mirror I could see the adult male throw his hands out in the air, with his palms up, as if to say “what was that all about?”

A few weeks later, my wife and I went to my parent’s house for a July 4th barbeque. We took the Buick down and I told my father about the skateboard event. As I began to tell the story to my dad, my dad, interrupted me and said, “Oh, you mean that dent right there? – I did that a few months ago!”

That was the moment I became an old man, driving a Buick, yelling at a skateboarder to get off my lawn.
