Sue the "Deep Pockets"
Hmmmmmm:
The victim's choice of targets for her lawsuit is interesting though. How much liability should Jewel have for homeless people who wander onto their property and beg, cajole, threaten, harass and beat citizens in an effort to get money? And if Jewel is liable, shouldn't they be able to protect their property by more than the usual means? Should we expect to see Jewel managers armed with Tasers, nightsticks and guns to protect their property? It would be entertaining no doubt.
- A woman who says she was attacked by a homeless man and woman while leaving a Jewel Food Store is suing the store and her attackers.
Jennifer Hall says that while she and her fiance were leaving the Jewel store at 1224 S. Wabash Ave. on Aug. 25, 2008, her 36th birthday, she was approached by Derrick King and Joyce Burgess. The two requested a cigarette and when Hall denied them, she was physically attacked -- losing most of her teeth and ending up with 85 staples in her head.
King pleaded guilty to the crime last october and was sentecned to three years in prision. But according to state records, he was paroled just 18 days after pleading guilty to two counts of robbery for the attack on Hall..

NO,THEY SHOULD HIRE OFF DUTY POLICE OFFICERS WHO ARE TRAINED TO HANDLE THESE TYPES OF HIGH STRESS POSSIBLE VIOLENT SITUATIONS!NOT ONLY ARE WE ARMED AND WELL TRAINED,BUT ONE CALL OF OFFICER NEEDS ASSIST AND THE CAVALRY COMES BALLS OUT!UNFORTUNATELY,MANY COMPANIES GO THE CHEAPER ROUTE WITH NON-POLICE SECURITY AND THEY PAY THE PRICE IN LAWSUITS!!AND LOSS OF BUSINESS!!!!!
Shysters always go for the deep pockets.
Another reason why I shop outside of the city/cook county. I go to the burbs where I don't have to deal with these scumbag" Scandanavians".
If Jewel is liable, what a way to run reputable businesses out of town. Watch this town turn into a bigger shit hole.

some scumbag lawyer got their ear no doubt--- they should sue the illinois department of corrections for letting this guy out early....

Maybe Jewels can hire Gregory Becker as security chief!
I say feed the homeless...to buzzards!
They don't need tasers or guns to reepl the homeless...job applications and soap will do the job
Yea, that's who I'd be suing and the CTA and the city. And if I was some multi-billion dollar corporation I would know if it was worth charging an extra buck a six pack to have a store with a parking lot near that CTA station. Jewel is not the victim here.
Jewel has surveillance cameras on the outside of their buildings monitoring their parking lots. Jewel knows there are liabilities in those lots. For at least this store, they should have armed guards with unmuzzled dogs patroling the parking lot.
This store is at a major transportation hub for the poor, urban pioneers, and shit heads. The situation there is not going to get any better. I'm sure Jewel first thing on Monday morning will consider whether to keep a store there or not.
OT- A 25,000 stolen sculpture is a 25,000 stolen sculpture. Don't try to lay your BS of Defiance on us. Maybe we'll retitle it "Grand Larceny".
What a SHAME! I'm sorry for the horrible attack this women suffered from the savages, but to look for a pay day from Jewel is just plain wrong and the case should be thrown out. How about suing the justice system that does not work and the city for lack of police protection due to the over spending on clouted pet products to keep the Daley voting machine running.
If that's the case, I'm gonna sue the CTA evertime I get on the red line and that drunk chickenhead, claiming to be homeless asks me for money!
Wasn't he another one of Quinn's "Willie Horton"? Or did the state fuck up on that one all by themself?
The crime scene wasn't even on Jewel property. It happened on the public sidewalk along the side of the store.
Since when does Jewel Foods control who walks down the city's public sidewalks?
She should be suing Shortshanks for failing to put a life-saving camera there to protect her and ward off the evil spirits!
Masters Masters Masters Masters
.
Jewel has "security personnel" at that lot. However, they are told that they will be fired if they interfere with anything going on around them. They are there strictly for show. So if your family shops at Jewel, let the shopper beware.
I believe if Jewel did nothing to remove thses individuals like call the police. They could be liable.
The woman should also sue Streetwise for hiring deranged violent people to sell their rag.
Normally I would say fuck her and this is why this country is the way it is because of these types of law suits BUT you know what? Not this time! This time I say pay the girl and pay her big!
The girl gets attacked by a fucking bum (who was attracted to this fucking state due to its left wing liberal policies) and sustains massive trauma to her face, head and teeth.
She then looks to the great justice system of this state to avenge this heinous attack on her and hand down a sentence befitting the devastation this asshole caused to her and her life.
What does this fucking state do for this good, tax paying ,voting citizen? Lets the fucking guy go in 18days!!! Quinn holds this asshole just long enough to get him well feed and well rested enough to go out and kill someone next time!
So I say pay her fuck it! She deserves some kind of justice however misguided it is.
Anyone here going to tell me that she don’t feel cheated enough and wronged enough by what this state did to her, to be able sleep just fine at night knowing that the wrong person will have to pay for her injuries?
I know I would sleep just fine in my new house, in my new bed, in my new state! Tell me I am wrong.
Best is KING after being released was arrested the very next day for assaulting a woman in the loop same MO approached for a cigarette, woman declined and King threatened her. She waved down Police and KING was arrested as he was fleeing from the scene.

I don't expect this woman to get much mileage out of this lawsuit. Jewel companies no doubt have far better legal representation than we do here in Shitcago.
Greedy plaintiffs. Hungry lawyers.
...and depending on the out come, should Gibsons be sued by the O/D copper?
...just saying.
And what happens when a store hires an Off Duty to chase away these dogs ? He gets attacked and bitten by the tooth fairy. Note to ODPO moonlighting: Start packing some nasty OC spray. And a concealable holster with a good retention on it. You can get some of the off-duty styles that have the same retentions as the duty versions now.
Dear Yuppies,
You wanted to move from your upper class suburb that you were raised in and get a taste of the city. Next time do some research before you overpay for your two bedroom condo. You would of found out that the beast lives a few blocks away from you. Go back to mommy and daddys nest.
A a least two occasions I observed different black females set-up a lawn chair and table and begin panhandling in front of the Walgreen store entrance at Touhy and Overhill. A simple call to the store manager got these mutts removed. Not in my backyard. And fuck Haiti, too.
Well maybe they need to be sued. I don't know how many bust outs I have encountered at Jewel over the years. Whenever I have brought it to their attention it seems they allow these bust outs to hound people. Hope Jewel and all the other stores claiming these people are not hurting anyone by begging learn a lesson by allowing burglars, robbers and scam artists to beg. Not that I condone lawsuits...but I am just saying!
what's the point of suing a homeless person? but no the store should not be held liable as the politicians won't let them keep homeless or anybody else off their property.
Business are not liable for CRIMES that occur on their property.
What really happened:
The victim and her boyfriend were drunk and coming back home from a bar when she got into a verbal confrontation with the homeless guy.
He won.
This is why the herd of lawyers should be culled every Fall.
Keep the cocksuckers guessing whether or not they'll be executed for "Legal/Financial Crimes of a Capital Nature".

The way I heard it, the victim's boyfriend tried to man up and found out something he really didn't want to know.

You're wrong. I see your point but shouldn't the state, not a legit business, be sued?
People have a RIGHT to self defense. In a sane world, Jennifer Hall would have put three in the chest of the assailant and that would have been the end of it.

If you think about it, we really don't have to worry about being laid off because we're so low to begin with. What we do have to worry about is taking those unpaid furlough days.
It's the same liberals who say boohoo to the homeless drug addicts and alcoholics. They are the same people who call 911 and stand over the paramedics dictating what should be done. Just don't let the homeless bums attack them, that's all.
I've said it before...reform the tort system!!! There needs to be more moderate people in this country! Another example of everyone else being punished for a single persons actions. The OFFENDER walks free while a food store who is in a lose, lose situation is punished. Although there are laws to "punish" people, there are no laws to prevent! We need a moderate voice who isn't afraid to speak for the left and the right side without being labled by our liberal, selective-freedom of speech media!
Jewel doesn't owe this broad a dime. She and her coward boyfriend were celebrating her 36th birthday at the Wabash Tap on the east side of Wabash just south of Roosevelt. She and her boyfriend left the Tap and crossed to the west side of Wabash to buy cigarettes at the Jewel. After leaving the Jewel on their way back to the bar, they were confronted by two homeless people, a M/1 and F/1. The F/1 said to the F/2, "how about a smoke." The F/2 said, "why don't you get a job." This happened on the sidewalk adjacent to the Jewel not in the Jewel lot. The M/1 grabbed the F/2 and hit her knocking her out into Wabash and sat on top of her pummeling her face. Boyfriend M/2 didn't do much of anything to help his girlfriend. CPD stopped the melee. Although it was the homeless POS who is at fault, it's not smart to trash talk with homeless beggars after having a snootful. But, the Jewel had noting to do with it. If Jewel is found liable, you will see a lot of merchants moving out of the city. She ought to sue her jag boyfriend for not killing the animal that attacked her.

Business ARE liable for crimes that occur on their property, but only under certain conditions. The company needs to be aware or should have been aware of incidents in the area or on their premises and failed to take any action to protect.

Are you talking about the mayor who mega-blasted Blago for having his name on the 'welcome to Illinois' signs?
"The city donated 3 retired, refurbished ambulances to Haiti. On each of the rigs is inscribed "Donated By City Of Chicago Richard M. Daley, Mayor."
Port au Prince lost it's Mayor in the quake, how about we donate ours to them? We can tattoo him "Donated by the People of Chicago". And we could send them a few Aldermen, and 'Community Activists'. They already have seen full recovery in their predatory gang structure.
Regarding the mayor putting HIS name on publicly funded services... Here's a link to the web page for Graffiti Blasters, which is a CITY service.
According to the website, it's MAYOR DALEY's service, apparently not the City of Chicago's.
http://egov.cityofchicago.org/city/webportal/portalContentItemAction.do?contentOID=536909830&contenTypeName=COC_EDITORIAL&topChannelName=HomePage

I agree that no one should have to "pay a cover charge" to shop at the Jewel or any other store in the city. The manager should not allow it. Selling candy, Streetwise and other assorted nonsense before you go into the Store is anoying. If I wanted to give a donation or buy any of the junk they allow to be sold or begged for at the entry I wouls find it myself. Corporation policy should not allow selling any chances, begging for money for any charitiesd etc. Its all a cover Charge to shop at that store just like the bums begging smokes and money, the manager needs to sign complaints and lock these ass wipes up.
I am very sorry for what that poor girl went through and is still going though. I, however, do not feel that Jewel food store is anymore responsible than the man in the moon. the attorney who wants to bring a law suit againt Jewel is nothing more than an ambulance chaser. I, think she has a better chance against the state and Quinn for his irresponsibe act letting these scum bags out. I think an attorney that brings an unmerited law suit such as this againt Jewel should have to pay out of their pocke the legal cost if they should loose. I bet this would stop the bullshit law suits. This girl deserves justice...jist mot with Jewel.

We are all human beings... To the blogger who said f## Haiti..we are all God children..One day you will get yours, to much hate can kill..
Some police departments let their off duty employees work in uniform at secondary employment.
Here's an idea.
Create a new public agency that hires off duty cops. Call it the Chicago Cop District.
Let businesses in the city contract with said agency to provide security at their locations.
Let's say the businesses are charged $50 per hour per off duty officer. That's probably a high number, but that factors in salary, and administrative costs plus a kickback to the city. If 200 business citywide utilized this agency 24/365 the agency budget would be around 88 million dollars a year.
You could limit the types of businesses that could hire this service. Grocers, Home Depot, Drugstores, strip clubs etc. Only high class businesses.
That would provide 4200 Chicago Cops with one shift a week. Said cops could carry police radios and would be in uniform.
That would be an extra $12000+ in each officers pocket yearly if they received $35 an hour.
Everyone wins. Except the bad guys.
NO Heart..hate causes diseases.. to the blogger who said f## Haiti..
Daley "Whitey Bulger" don't know nothing! After all the money has been stolen, they now want to apoligize and promise not to do it again! Doesn't anyone ever go to jail for all these scams? Always the same game just different players! They city and Crook County will never change! I just loved it when Daley suggested that we can do away with Shakman because "we promised not to be doing that no more!" Take a look at the "WHO'S WHO" inside City Hall! Its a giant rats' nest and all the rodent inspectors are on the take! Sort of like the "mob," they all got suits and ties on now! Poor citizens don't have a chance! City Hall takes your money out of one pocket and Crook County takes the rest! And Burke sits quietly with his $200 Irish ties and grins! Can anyone spell "conscience?" Or maybe have one! And he's supposed to be a lawyer! Ethics 101 anyone? Two mobs have divided up the entire Cook County, City Hall takes all of Chicago, and Crook County gets the rest! Al Capone would be jealous! We're talking billions here!
$10 an hour! No one pays well for security but they want you to get your teeth knocked out wrestling with some three time loser with the penitentiary build! Civilians have to learn to run, not walk from these animals! Do not confront them, just call 911 so no one else gets hurt!

She should get rid of her wimp as fiance that couldn't protect her from getting such a severe beating, cause from what i remember he didn't have a scratch on him.
Jewel just does not care. I observed a theft at the Jewel on Lawrence&Central. Probplty reported it to the head cashier ( no mgr on duty ) and she just stood there looking lost, nothing was done, except raise the price so all us honest folk can pay for it.

You are right.. and unfortunately wrong as well. The city does not want the liability incurred when a PO makes what may be interpreted as a quesitonable arrest. The city believes that no police/citizen (criminal)interaction is better than making an arrest.
If you can prevent crime merely by your presence; God bless you. If you have to "put your hands" on someone; God help you!
SCC:"Should we expect to see Jewel managers armed with Tasers, nightsticks and guns to protect their property? It would be entertaining no doubt."
Yes we should.Crime would plummet.

I am a business owner and can tell you first hand that these parasites are a huge burden to any business. I post signs regarding trespassing and pan handling, however these parasites have no respect for any laws! Call the police and as soon as the patrol car pulls up, the parasites walk away ( It usually takes about an hour for police service because you guys are so short handed). But just like a disease, if the problem is not dealt with in the proper way, it returns. These f'n people know exactly what they are doing in regards to the police. Worst case, i sign a complaint and they are out of my hair for the day, but the very next day, they are back! These f'n animals cost my business and other business' in this liberal city hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars every year. Who wants to patronize a business when you see these pieces of shit hanging around and aggressivley begging for money? I follow all the rules by maintaining my property, passing every inspection, putting up fencing, proper lighting and cameras all to comply with this city's ordinance codes. What do we get as business owners in return???? Higher taxes!!! Less Police Protection/service! Business' (including mine) will have to step back and take a look to see if it makes sense to continue doing business in this city! Officers, please be safe and thank you for all you do. I wish an ordinance would pass allowing a business owner to protect his property from loss due to negligence of city services! By ANY means necessary! God Bless The CPD!!!

You are absolutely correct, however, stupid is as stupid does. We have the right to do anything within the law, however, prudence does dictate time and place. It is called street sense. You either got it, or somebody might try to pound it into you.
Have a heart. You give in a wealthy neighborhood so share your good fortune. Anyways, 16th district is not up to handle this serious problem.

You must have seen the school report. Wealthy neighborhood? Some properties have been foreclosed upon and several Stanley's have disappeared back to Poland.
I guess he used the tactical 8-stomp manuever
Some of you are missing the point!
I live in IL.SOUTH part. I have an CCW Good in other states, BUT NOT IL. It saved my ass in IN. and did not have to pull it out. Gave up when I pulled my shirt back and had my hand on my 45 ACP 1911. That kid stopped trying to get my wallet. With the right training and mind set. Most people in IL could help them self out. Please get behind us and help us get CCW in IL. and thank you very much for doing a great job you men and woman in BLUE. be safe and see you out there.
I despise the over-litigious populace, but come awn.
have some balls.
Certain retailers in certain areas have a coackroach proplem.
DEAL WITH IT.
Tell it to Home Depot; Menards etc who do not want illegal immigrants congregating in their parking lots.

I went to Home depot lot to hire 2 guys to help me with a roofing job and I offered $10.00 per hour for a four hour job and these miserable unemployed ingrates had the nerve to tell me will only work an $80 minimum. Who the fuck do they think they are making a demand like that. Screw them.

You heard it here first folks. Bet he'll write up a proposal for just under what a union contractor would give and then you get to have illegal immigrants with no experience put on your new roof.
America is great, ain't she?
People have a RIGHT to self defense. In a sane world, Jennifer Hall would have put three in the chest of the assailant and that would have been the end of it.

Will you marry me?
She has become as morally corrupt as the her attackers.
I guess it depends on a couple factors not real obvious. If Jewel knew the thug was there and chose not to take any action, the choice to do nothing can be looked at by a court. If all they had to do to mitigate a potential mess like this was to dial 911, and they did not do so, they ought to have some explaining to do, especially if this kind of problem has occurred in the past.
Jewel cannot be blamed for what the criminal did, but they can be blamed for what they did, or did not do.

Don't forget to go to the baffroom while you're there.
Since our wonderful courts have ruled that panhandeling is not a criminal act, Jewel cannot force people to cese in conducting legal behavior.
Second, since it happend on the public way, how is Jewel responsible for a crime where they do not have legal control over who comes and goes from that area?
Hey! How about suing the cigarette companies? Isn't how all this started? They asked for a cigarette, victim says no, they beat the crap out of the victim.
In fact, both offender and victim could both go in on this one together!
Business ARE liable for crimes that occur on their property, but only under certain conditions. The company needs to be aware or should have been aware of incidents in the area or on their premises and failed to take any action to protect.

"In the area" huh?

That BFD on the overtime slips, what's that. Is that for when we want to take off for our birfdays? We get our birfdays off?
The solution to the problem is: FEED THE HOMELESS TO THE HUNGRY. Problem solved.
If anyone goes to Menards or Home Depot or anywhere else to hire "handymen" hanging around for a day job, I believe that you are making a very serious mistake, especially for a roofing job. If one of these folks happens to get hurt you will be responsible for their medical treatment and compensation. The damages would go far beyond your homeowner's insurance. You, my friend, would be in deep hock. Take out a one million umbrella policy for liability. It will cost you about 200 per year and well worth it. The old saying, Penny wise and pound foolish" still applies.
How is it that while the ranks of sworn blue-shirt PO's has shrunk in the last few years, the exempt ranks have managed to escape unscathed.
I'll believe the city is broke when it starts laying off Deputy Supt's.
(Check out 024 Commander's office--he got at least 6 f/PO's doing critical paper work)
