Swedish Police Search For Pickpocket Who Assaulted and Spat On Mother Who Tried To Help Elderly Victim

sweden tube attackEven in our crime infested world, there is occasionally a crime that takes your breath away. In Sweden, this guy took that distinction when he combined the pickpocketing of an elderly woman and an assault on another woman with children who tried to help her. He punched the mother in front of her children and spat on her.

The crime occurred in Stockholm and the police released the video below to help find this guy.

sweden tube attackThe video is from the Gamla Stan tube station in central Stockholm, Sweden, was caught on CCTV and shows the man creeping up behind a women described as a pensioner who was trying to get her phone out of her bag. When the mother intervenes, he assaults her and then spits on her in front of the children. While one can hardly expect decency from criminals as a whole, I can say as a long criminal defense attorney that many criminals would not sink this low. I expect the Swedish police have made this guy a special project for arrest. Ironically, I would expect that he would have an equally hostile reception in jail from the other inmates.

One report indicates that they may have already arrested the suspect.

  1. Anyone surprised? The suspect, in custody, is Tunisian and is being deported. Deported? To where, you ask? Why, back to Denmark, of course. That’s the last place that the Swedish authorities have listed for him, so back to the poor Danes he goes. Back to his next victims.

  2. It is politically correct to equate all peoples, cultures and religions, but nothing could be further from the truth. There are places on this planet where there is no morality, no kindness, no freedom and no simple decency. Inviting these people to live among us has to be one of the most moronic acts in human history, and those who seek to accommodate these barbarians will be eaten by them.

  3. Well just think we can have that here. Vote for the politicians that want to bring them here with no restrictions.

  4. The guy is obviously not Nordic. He exhibited a fair degree of pent up anger, not unlike many Nordic youth in Sweden who routinely prey on the public. The question is, was he in the act of picking a purse or was he simply moving to the left in response to the woman and her child coming down the right and taking up half of the stair way. People routinely slide by others coming and going simply to keep moving.

    If he was picking the purse and got caught that is one combination of charges: attempted robbery, assault, etc. If he was offended for being accused of doing something of which he is innocent, then the charges would be much more muddy.

    Regardless of the outcome in trial, the guy’s behavior did not eclipse that of a substantial portion of the youth of Sweden. Europe and Sweden in particular has its fair share of disgruntled and rebellious youth. The Nordic types have been doing this well before the ‘immigrants’ showed up. In Norway and Sweden people have been slowly immigrating from North Africa and the Mediterranean for many decades, from well before this recent upheaval. Now in Scandinavia there is an exemplary blend of races in all levels of society. This took generations to accomplish. Unfortunately, now there is a present influx of immigrants coinciding with weakening economies and over taxed social services. The tension, profiling, and imbalance causes confrontations from both directions. This guy was wrong in his attacking the woman. However, Nordic types do this often and worse. It would be a step backward to include his race, religion, or origin in court. Out here in the ‘Blog’ we can say anything.

  5. We might be able to weed out some of the bad apples by trying to vet them, but there is no way to completely eliminate people you don’t really want. So, by some logic, we should just close borders to everybody; no migration, to refugees, period. In my opinion, that would be inhumane and logistically impossible. Yes, we should do the best we can, but we should not block everyone, no matter there national origin or religious affiliation. We also need more people like this mother who are willing to intervene. I want to know how many other people saw this incident and just walked away. I for one can not do that. When I see something like this, I step in. Unlike this mother, I am a big guy who can be intimidating, although I am a teddy bear inside. In the end, when this kind of incident happens and you catch the guy, you send him packing or to prison, whichever is appropriate.

  6. If he would have done that in front of nice folks out in out-state Missouri who had been lawfully carrying their firearms he would have been put into custody or shot. This is why we have the right to bear arms in America– to stop criminals in their tracks.
    And another thing, this just shows those dumb Europeans that they need to keep taking in more muslim refugees. The word muslim does not deserve the respect of being capitalized. I say that to word press. Friggin censorship on my own computer. Prophet Mohammed was a pedophile. All religions are for idjits and you can not cure an idjit.

  7. Riesling – if they release the video footage, someone is going to wonder where the cops are.

  8. Funny how they still haven’t released the video footage from the train station in Cologne. I wonder why?

  9. Sweden places the rights of Muslim migrants to abuse women above than the rights of Swedish women not to be abused by Muslim men. The obvious answer is for Swedish women to use the power of their voting bloc to remove these hater politicians who think it is okay to subject them to abuse by foreigners in their own country.

  10. For those who are wondering whether the “migrant” is a Muslim, you should be aware that Swedish Law specifically forbids revealing such information because by identifying the migrant as a Muslim is automatically racist and bigoted. We too show have the same laws in the US and throughout the world. Islam must be respected and obeyed and if you think otherwise you are racist and bigoted too. Okay?

  11. I do not have any idea what nationality this creep was, as I haven’t read anything else about it.

    However, it is a timely reminder of the very good reason why open borders, unlimited immigration, amnesty, and illegal immigration is a very bad idea. A country has the right to decide who and how many to admit. For instance, any Tonton Macoute from Haiti need not apply. And even when migration is legal, if you import too many people at too great a rate from countries with severe human rights abuses and/or systemic abuse of women, you will also import those values. Too many too fast, and they might not assimilate.

    Keep the rate sustainable so that it will not overwhelm our own Western values.

  12. What a creep. I respect this mother for doing her best to protect an older woman. Where was everyone else?

    Meanwhile, in other news about the risks of women:

    http://www.foxnews.com/health/2016/01/18/500k-americans-at-risk-for-female-genital-mutilation.html?intcmp=ob_article_sidebar_video&intcmp=obinsite

    The CDC estimates that 513,000 American women were at risk for genital mutilation in 2012, triple the risk from the 1990s.

    “As for why the jump in risk, the CDC writes that “the estimated increase was wholly a result of rapid growth in the number of immigrants from FGM/C-practicing countries living in the United States and not from increases in FGM/C prevalence in those countries.” As for those countries, the WHO says the practice is concentrated in 29 countries in Africa and Middle East and says more than 125 million girls and women alive today have been cut there.

    Per the CDC, the most common countries of origin for Americans at risk of FGM/C were Egypt (20%), Ethiopia (18%), and Somalia (12%). (ISIS reportedly demands FGM/C.)”

    I am deeply disturbed by the increase in vacation cutting of children and forced arranged marriages happening here in the US. It is antithetical to women’s rights and a form of modern enslavement.

    This illustrates why assimilation is vitally important, and another reason why I despise ISIS. People do not just automatically leave Old World savage attitudes towards women at the border, suddenly embracing Western values. Some people immigrate to the West to escape extremism, and some take it with them. It’s very difficult to shake off brainwashing. Which is why immigrants from high risk countries for violence against women should not just be released, but rather at the very least go through classes on our laws and expectations. If we reduced the hemorrhage of spending on illegal immigration, perhaps we could invest more funding on legal immigration, which may help.

    1. How did we end up jumping to ISIS here? When female genital mutilation is as much if not more a Christian problem??????
      But I agree with you karen, women are targeted across the globe, especially in western countries, including the US. Glad to see that we are not limiting the condemnation to those evil ME counties, that we are condemning ALL the societies that abuse women, whether through rampant child sexual abuse and child porn, murder of pregnant women, rapes in schools and the military, imprisonment of women and forced sterilization of female prisoners, all of which happens right here.

      In terms of widespread abuse of women, of all kinds, in a non-conflict area, nowhere it is as dangerous to be a woman as in the US and some Latin American countries. ISis is in fact less dangerous to women overall than American men are to their partners.
      Thank you for seeing it and condemning it.

  13. Don’t you just love JT writing about this animal, using the oh-so-sanitized terms of “guy” and a “man” throughout the article?What is so terribly difficult about including the facts that have been disseminated about this incident, JT? The media has, thus far, refused to release the name of the “guy” caught on surveillance cameras, despite his arrest. It would, however, be refreshing to see someone not dance around the obvious, as the THE ESTEEMED GENTLEMAN,
    arrested for this crime, has been identified as a “migrant”–ahh, yes, the mysterious migrant. Anyone want to guess the “migrant’s” religious affiliation? Three guesses–the first two don’t count.

  14. The man must be forgiven for the acts he has committed and for ones that he will do in the future. The man is obviously a Muslim and, therefore, a follower of the religion of peace, and consquently any acts of violence were obviously done in the name of Islam. To accuse this man of anything or to criticize him in any way, therefore, is an act of bigotry and racism. Furthermore, global warming was, no doubt, another factor in his behavior, which must be taken into consideration. Surely, JT and his fellow leftist followers recognize these obviously and undeniable realities?
