Three Girls Notice This Man’s Suspicious Behavior In A Restaurant And Save This Woman From Rape Attempt
385Kviews
Charlies Angeles has some competition – three women in Santa Monica saved another woman from getting date raped by her friend and people have dubbed them as heroines.
Sonia Ulrich shared the story of what happened when she and 2 of her friends, Monica Kenyon and Maria Saltzer, were having drinks at a restaurant.
While attempted rape by a friend sounds like the most shocking part of the story, according to RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network) the nation’s largest anti-sexual violence organization, 7 out of 10 rapes are committed by someone the victim knows.
People were amazed with their bold rescue

Unfortunately, due to a "bad warrant", a judge dismissed all charges but one- felony poisoning, and his bail was dropped to $50k. The story is from 2016, but there doesn't appear to be any new information if the guy was found guilty or not, or if even the last charge was dropped.
That is unfortunate. However I will gladly sigh a minute of relief for this one victim even if he doesn't get the appropriate punishment. And I will hope (although with little confidence) that it was enough to scare him and prevent a repeat performance.
I also hope he may have lost his job. I couldn't imagine if she had to continue to work in the same place as he.
"Hsu and the woman met in the summer of 2014, when they were hired at the same company within a week of each other, according to Sierra’s testimony. They became friends and a year later began having sex, according to Sierra (cop), though they were never exclusive. The following year, when the woman met someone else at work — her eventual boyfriend — she began to distance herself from Hsu. The detective said that’s when he got even more aggressive. Defense attorney Joshua Ritter rejected this characterization, arguing that the woman never explicitly told Hsu that she wanted to stop sleeping with him or even that she no longer wanted to hang out with him." The drug he used was identified as ecstasy, not seen as a typical date rape drug, so I'm guessing this is why the charges were reduced to poisoning.
A felony charge for POISONING sounds pretty hefty in itself! He couldn't be charged for anything more because that's all he was able to do, thanks to being caught right away! ...and 50k bail would be a large amount for most people...I'm sure the arrest and public humiliation, PLUS spending time in county jail, PLUS a trial, EVEN if found not guilty, would be a definite deterrent to this guy attempting this again!
that is sad... he should have gotten jailed!
What's with us men? why rape anyone or why even think about it? stop ruining lives ffs.
"us men", speak for yourself buddy, i'm no rapist and would of torn this guys fuckin head off if i had seen him do that to any woman. Disgraceful.
Remember to tear off the other "Head" as well please ! 👍
*would have* and also the reason he said all men is cuz, I agree, he should’ve said most men, but still a lot of men are rapists, but then again, a lot of women are rapists too.
Wow! Proper heroes! And good for them to post it too for us all to think about this and not be afraid to act. I also like how they praised the manager/staff of the restaurant. I really hope they get some good publicity and customers because of it (and a raise!). They totally deserve it.

I agree with everything you said EXCEPT the use of the work "heroes". It's an often overused and misused word, so it's losing all meaning. My nephews' step-brother jumped into a river to save a 12-year-old from swimming when he was 19. The step-brother not only didn't know how to swim, but was really afraid of water. He saved the got, got him to shore where the kid could be pulled up. But he himself drowned. THAT is a hero. I liked this story, glad it turned out how it did, but they are not heroes. If they are heroes, what is the proper word to use for my step-nephew?
Sorry for your loss. These girls were heroic, thus heros. Your nephew died being a hero. A good, selfish act to help or save another is heroic, no matter what the outcome is.
Oh shut up, heroes come in all shapes, sizes and situations. Yes your nephew's step brother is a hero but that takes nothing away from what these woman did. If that was my wife or daughter they helped i could be thankful for these heroes for the rest of my life. These woman are heroes, they saved a woman from being raped, something that will have a profound effect on the rest of her life, how is that not heroic?.
Saving someone from being raped is not heroic to you? It's not a competition, you know. YIKES this is a bad take.
Ok I agree with the fact that your step nephew is a hero, and I’m sorry for your loss but heroes come in all shapes and sizes, and if you don’t believe that saving someone from RAPE is heroic then you have some messed up ideas in that head of yours. Raping someone is one of the worst things other than murder, mugging, and other very extreme crimes you can do.
I wholeheartedly agree with your sentiments , and I am sorry for your truly heroic nephew ,although what those women did was brave because it’s too easy these days for others to ridicule someone like that ! But the word is too often used for individuals such as sports people playing a game such as football ! That is ridiculous ! The meaning of the word is taken completely out of context !
You are correct. The word 'hero' is very much over used these days. At one time it meant someone who risked their life to save another. We have noticed in recent years that the local news calls anyone who saves another person or animal, even with no risk to themselves, a hero.

Nope. Hero is someone who risks their lives for others. They did the right thing. That is all.
