Mercedes Nichols Arrested Again for Assault

Mercedes Nichols, 17, gained international infamy when a video showed her participating in the ambushing and beating of cheerleader Victoria Lindsay. Now, Nichols has been arrested again for assault in Polk County, Florida for allegedly beating and stabbing her ex-boyfriend.

Nichols allegedly violated a court restraining order by tracking down her ex-boyfriend and then stabbing him repeatedly with a pen. She now has additional charges for three counts of misdemeanor battery, one count of misdemeanor stalking, two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and one count of aggravated stalking. All are felonies.

Nichols is accused of being the person who originally invited Mulberry High cheerleader Victoria Lindsay to her home so that she could be ambushed. This will not help things for Nichols, who is now looking at some serious potential time.

    This girl has such a violent history that she should be put away for a long time. I can’t understand how kids that young can get so violent. Scary.

    What a nice young lady. After seeing her parents reaction to the first assault, I’m not surprised that she did it again.

    Take a good look at her. She’s violent and pissed off because she knows she’s nothing but a worthless fat pig.

    Rafflaw, I cannot begin to imagine how a kid only 17 years old could have such tendencies toward violence. You have to wonder how much of that she got from her own upbringing.

    It’s low self esteem and not knowing how to properly engage. She probably beat up that girl in a misguided attempt to have friends and be part of a group, maybe there was some jealousy towards her victim. She’s a throw away kid, angry, and a teenager. I’ll bet that she comes from a divorced family, the father is absent. That causes abandonment issues in girls and makes the boyfriend’s rejection more painful, heightening the feeling that she is unlovable. Overeating is a method to mask pain, but the stabbing someone is just over the top. This girl needed serous guidance, and emotional help after the first incident. Too bad it might be to late. She won’t get it in jail.

    I have a feeling she’ll be getting more love in jail than she did at home.

    It’s never too late; with aggression, violence, stupidity and criminal conduct, all she needs is a rich daddy and she could be President.

    Thanks, zakimar. I was waiting for the Bush tie-in.

    She is a violent psychopath. There is no place in society for her kind.

    You’re welcome. I do what I can, but there aren’t too many stories about moronic, hypocritical, Zionist, power-crazed, warmongers out there for an easier Bush tie-in.

    Does anyone know when their court date is? Or what, if any, their punishment is?

  12. 12 Ashley 1, August 22, 2008 at 4:52 pm

    all of these LITTLE girls are worthless and should all go to jail for a long time….and let them get ambushed in jail and see how they like it…jumping people is a sign of weakness….they are a waste of flesh!!

    What a piece of trash. How can such a young woman end up such a piece of trash? Hmmm… Trash begets trash. Her mother is obviously just as bad.

    sad thing is i know this girl on a personal level. i actualy almost dated her. and i can verify that because we use to be in band together and she played the flute. and the sad thing she didnt use to be like that till she started hanging around britni hardcastle. which i know her personaly as well we use to sit a lunch together.

    Travis, do you know (or somebody else maybe) where Mercades Nichols is now and what she is doing?

  16. 16 kiki 1, March 26, 2011 at 2:09 pm

    “beating and stabbing her ex-boyfriend.” this fugly pig is a monster!! everyone in her school should have a restraining order against her! jeez!!

    Look at Mercades Nichols mothers myspace (Christina Garcia). Shes talking about how she isnt a bad mother. Well sometimes you earn the title as a bad mother. She was also defending her in the Victoria beating saying that she didnt beat her that she just sit and watch the fight and was too afraid to call 911, and that the cop was lying when he said she was the head leader of the fight. So she invited the five girls to her house and they just decided they where going to beatup Victoria and videotape her and kidnapped her. And Mercades just sit and watched. I dont buy it, what she saying doesnt make any sense. And than she beat and stabs her boyfriend and her mother defended her than and said he was abusing her while she was pregnant and made her miscarry. Oh yeah and she also got pregnant on purpose as an unmarried 17 year old. Yes her parents are divorced. And she was living with her grandma at the time. Where was her grandma when the five girls come to their house and decided to kidnap Victoria and beat her for 35 minutes? I also know her mother was living in Florida at the time too. Where was the Mercades mother or father? This tell me alot about her family and how she was raised. And Christina also talk about spanking kids and how you couldnt get away with spanking your kid in the Wal-Mart in Florida and how you should spank your kid and how she spank Mercades and disciplined her on her myspace. Well what do she know about raising kid when her daughter almost got life in jail.

    So now the six girls and two boys that participated in the beating are out on bail. Take that out on Dr.Phil. Its Dr.Phil fault they are out on bail.

    One of the girls parents also said that the girls needed help not jail, and they need someone to sit down with them and talk. Whoever said that needs help.

    Have anyone notice the fight was because April Copper stole Victoria Lindsay boyfriend and Victoria supposedly trash talk her telling her she was going to fight her. Well these young girls dont get very good messages. They either get messages that they should just suck it up and find another boyfriend. Like that going to help with their problem. Or that girls like that dont have any class.

    Whats scary, i knew her personally when i was a little kid. She was nebhiors with my grandmother. She was like an older sister. I never remember her being violent at all. She was to sweet. Thats why i was so shocked and hurt when i found out about this.

  19. 19 ashley nichole 1, October 16, 2011 at 2:18 am

    she’s a fat slob, of course she goes around assaulting people. i look forward to having her bag my purchases at walmart in 20 years.

    Wow after all these years i get to read all this.. Hmmm first of all what she did was wrong she was charged for the crime even you know she didnt touch victoria, but she is just as guilty.. Mercedes i know well her ex was abusive to her in alot of ways more emotionally than ever, i know this cause i was dating her ex’s father at the time, her ex was no prime rib either they were both wrong for eachother but as most teenagers are and as much as i and her ex’s father tried to talk to them they were more determined to stick it out. Her ex cheated on her which started the first mess between them, she never stabbed her ex at all that is media jumbo BS.. she threw a pencil at him in school and being that it was sharp it got his hand, now if her ex was a winny baby and call that a stabbing then fine so be it, but you know the media they always make it out more than what it is. I know Mercedes and yes she is a little spoiled brat that is a bit rough around the corners however she is also one of the nicest, she was pulled into the wrong crowd i know that is no excuse but do you all that is on here writing such negitive against her mean to tell me that you all never in your life ever fought or hurt someone??? please we all have some a little to much but never the less we are all guilty and should never past judgement on anyone. she made a mistake and i pray that she is trying her hardest to change her ways and move on, so please look into your hearts as god says. Forgiveness
