That will definitely help him in his recovery. <BR/><BR/>Wow--it certainly sounds like an aggravated battery based on the severity of the injuries and the brick (a weapon), but each state has different definitions or it may have to go up before a felony review before felony charges can be brought forward. That's the way it works here in my area. <BR/><BR/>I agree. I would sue them in civil court regardless of the criminal charges. It's easier to win there anyway. <BR/><BR/>JessicaThe Rock Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04653277401124290907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23686262.post-18998381469139765722007-08-14T15:48:00.000-04:002007-08-14T15:48:00.000-04:00sorry to hear about your brother, but glad he's ok...sorry to hear about your brother, but glad he's okay overall. what a horrible thing....bluemountainmamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04297693762079368522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23686262.post-83324096964849617252007-08-14T14:18:00.000-04:002007-08-14T14:18:00.000-04:00I'm so sorry to hear about what happened to your b...I'm so sorry to hear about what happened to your brother!

Two guys who were just outside the store followed her to her car and demanded her car keys. When she refused, they knocked her down and took her purse. <BR/><BR/> She's ok except for some bruises, so fortunately this attack ended up much less violently than your brother's incident, but I was outraged.<BR/><BR/>Making matters worse is that there were people all around, and she was screaming bloody murder, and no one helped her.<BR/><BR/>Sadly, this is what it's like to live in a fallen world. :(Cindy Swansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14090693362997103412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23686262.post-81308183617754917302007-08-14T00:33:00.000-04:002007-08-14T00:33:00.000-04:00Jam, I'm so sorry that this horrible thing happene...Jam, I'm so sorry that this horrible thing happened. <BR/><BR/>Yes, I will pray for your brother and the young woman...and you...and you're family.<BR/><BR/>If this happened to my brother or sons or husband, I would feel exactly like you do. It would be very hard to align with Romans 12:17-21.<BR/><BR/>It looks like God is already working. The two men are identified. (You don't have to go out hunting for them.) Sit tight. Justice will come.<BR/><BR/><BR/> <BR/><BR/> <BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>Romans 12:17-21. This is an interesting passage to review--regarding revenge. If this happened to me, I would feel exactly like you do.

I'm so sorry that your brother took such a horrible beating at the hands of these - jeez, people sounds like too good a word for them.<BR/><BR/>I hope he heals well and fast. Praise God for the people who stepped up to ID these two and I hope there are a lot of pictures and a nice long trial that embarrasses them to no end.Leannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12428110232570798723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23686262.post-37150239494263270342007-08-13T18:37:00.000-04:002007-08-13T18:37:00.000-04:00Damn Jam.

I am glad your brother and the young lady are healing. <BR/><BR/>I admire him for stepping up in the situation...things could have been so much worse for the woman. <BR/><BR/>In your previous post you spoke of trying to reconcile your Christian belief with your anger and desire for revenge.

They claim that my brother pushed them down the front steps of the house. <BR/><BR/>They're already watching to see if the guys get serious charges, and my Younger Brother happens to know a lawyer in town that is one of those guys that takes great pleasure in making people's lives miserable in lawsuits. <BR/><BR/>I think that one 135lb man and a 30-something woman were so messed up by two college athletes that don't even have one scratch on them is not going to be much in their favor.<BR/><BR/>I asked him to sue if they didn't get satisfaction through the police/courts. I told him to go after them like Mr. Goldmam did to O.J. Simpson. Mr. Goldman is determined to collect every penny that O.J. will ever make. That's what I hope my brother will do.<BR/><BR/>His girlfriend, is a 30-something woman who works, goes to nursing school, and really has a lot on the ball. She seems to have determined that her purpose in life for the near future is to see these men pay for what they did.JAMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04272374108524693575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23686262.post-30442190656920691952007-08-13T15:39:00.000-04:002007-08-13T15:39:00.000-04:00There is always a civil suit that can cost those a...There is always a civil suit that can cost those attackers every spare dime they ever make.<BR/><BR/>What makes people into such sick, disgusting monsters like that?nonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07550167783969561280noreply@blogger.com
