'He's no stranger to us' Thanks judges, you are murdering us one by one.
Cuz thats crazy😡😡
Are you deceased? I understand what you are conveying via public statement but.......not all those who panhandle have the right to be anywhere, nor do they not understand the dangers of their choice of activity.....
@@sarafinasegale9537 What does panhandling have to do with the judge(s) letting this guy free? Your comment makes no sense compared to the statement you're replying to.
@@grondhero Was it your statement??
There are two sides to a coin.......It does make sense..... You're right a predator is a predator.....but some of those who panhandle are predators just as well....
Small fish, big fish.....
@@sarafinasegale9537 no one is living on the street for their health, but Walter Medina rehab is not the answer.
He should NEVER, EVER be released again from prison. He has been convicted of this very thing TWICE before. I hope the woman is able to heal and move on with her life.
I feel like after so many times being released, over and over, victims should be able to sue the legal system or the judges
Ehh, they victims is white though...
One conviction should have sealed his fate of a lifetime in prison with no hope of ever breathing free air again.
@@JackieSimpson-ex2oiI am so thankful she was finally able to escape
He'll get out again, unless he is a black man with weed.
Stop letting that monster out of prison
that monster should never have reached prison the first time.

I’ll never understand how people like this are able to walk free with a history of doing heinous crimes.
Because they want the world to stay corrupt
i try not even speed . and i use my turn signals ~seat bets
Really?!?! Have you even seen the people voting in this country? I’m not surprised at all. They’ll be our downfall, just watch.
Why was he out of prison? This should never have happened...I blame the justice system...
Yeah victim needs to sue the state
@@maternst1 That is a deep red State, dummy.
They let out black murderers in a few years. Welcome to America.
@@maternst1🙄
@@Jameshoover753 yeah maybe she can panhandle enough money to afford a lawyer. Give me a break.
The suspect should NEVER SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY, AGAIN...
I’m sure his prison has installed windows and he’ll see the light of day everyday from his cell and while he’s on the yard getting exercise.
They'll probably let him out in a week
DP.
He should NEVER take another breath. If only. 😠 😡
@@T.R.27 Send walter medina to me.
She was so tired but couldn’t stop, you can tell by how she’s running
She is also running like that from injuries
Duh
And the award for pointing out the obvious goes to…!
Im so happy she was able to escape.
The justice system is broken.
Another word for broken is marxist
Blame democrats
PERVERTED!
Not broken, purposely designed this way.
Thank you Joe Biden and democrats
Why was he out if he’s done it twice?
Friend of the mis-judges...again
"Third time's a charm." - social worker judge, probably
@tammympoole664 I agree
Tampa is liberal demonrats, corruption at it's finest!! Just like NYC, no difference 😡
Simple answer Democrats and their policies.
Dear God! She’s a miracle most don’t ever get away!😮
I’m proud of her for finding the courage to save herself from that monster. I hope he’s locked up for life. I hope she gets the support she needs to begin healing
The system is directly responsible for the crimes against that poor woman!
sue lady sue!!!!!!!!!1
That was exactly my thought !
The system's not allowed to put criminals in jail, so who's responsible? Democratic voters
He sounds like he’s escalating. I hope they take that into consideration when they sentence him this time around
@@danasmith858Thats an ad hominem argument. Plenty of people go to jail and prison. It's just usually poor people and minorities for nonviolent offenses that are disproportionate to the offense. Quit blaming your political opponents for everything, we are being purposefully divided and conquered by the deep state.
Keep him in prison
Under the prison!
@jerrydillard2430 yep! 👍
They don't lock up people of color anymore.
@@jerrydillard2430Capital punishment.
wishing the woman a good recover ..so brave of he to escape like that ..bless her .
God bless her! I am a kidnapping survivor. Thank God the cashier took her seriously and actually called for help. When I got away I ran to police for help and the cop literally curled his lip up at me, looked me up and down like I was dirt and got in his car and drive off which allowed the kidnapper to find me again and take me back and tortured me for escaping. I never stopped trying to find a way to get away from him. I finally did it. Cops never called an ambulance for me when they finally came looking for me. They just sent me home. I hate Houston police department forbwhat those now retired officers did to me. For whatever reason, they lied in their reports and just randomly made stuff up for no reason at all. I guess they were trying to cover up for the first cop. That's the only thing I can think of. I am glad she is safe and I hope they tell her about all of her free resources because no one told me.
💖🙏
He's no stranger to us. Nuff said.
Shoulda been watching him then
@@joycecarr1661 takes at least three men in the field to watch one man . And even more than just that involved , as they then report to others who can only handle so many cases at a time themselves . impossible to follow everyone like that . who spies on the spies who are spying on you ?
This is his third time!??
Given he offered her food and DRUGS, how many times has she willing went along? ( Still not an excuse to him to do what he did however, EVERYONE needs to keep themselves away from bad places, bad people, bad situations. )
@@bobroberts2371 Oh, it's kina her fault, I see. I guess she jus had it coming, hmm?
@@bobroberts2371 If she were panhandling and actually needed food, then she was probably desperate and he knew how to take advantage of her. People that kidnap and traffic human beings have a sixth sense on telling who's vulnerable, just like bullies and their victims.
@@CCmagee3 not completely but kind of. She, along with many other victims of violent crimes and human trafficking, certainly was not thrown into a white van walking home from Bible study. Jussayin...
@@djabroni_brochacho4644 Yeah, you got a good point. I just said that about a woman who ran around with a thug and got shot and killed. Your decisions do matter. 👍
WTH! This MONSTER should NEVER have been out of prison! Thank God this poor Woman escaped. I send many healing prayers to her ❤
My thoughts and prayers go to the woman. I hope that she recovers and gets all of the help and support she needs. May blessings and a wonderful life be hers from now on. I hope that man never sees the light of day again.
3x kidnapper? Wth is wrong with these judges!!
The justice system works for the wrong people.
Why tf they keep letting him out⁉️
democrats.
George Soros-funded DA's.

@@Atomicqueen9people only care about their narratives. They don't want to see it's both sides.
This poor woman ❤ I can't imagine the trauma she went through, so happy she can begin to heal😢🙏
Oh my goodness this is so sad. I’m so thankful she escaped and I hope he never gets out.
Judges and DAs putting us all in danger
Certain judges and DAs, not all.
As do the State Legislature who don’t pass laws to stop this catch and release system.. Republican states are notorious for claiming they are tough on crime, but thy are WEAK on enforcement.
They BRAG how TOUGH on crime they are but it is only tough on moving vehicle violations and parking violations...
Vote lenient ones out.
The Judges and DA’s let real criminals get away with repeat offenses. BUT THEY CRUCIFY A MAN FOR RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT! Talk about a broken justice system!!!!
When will lawmakers understand? Men who commit these types of crimes, always escalate! This woman was fortunate to have lived, though, it will be years before she feels that way. I sincerely hope she takes the help offered, God bless her. She's going to need much support.
I bet he has an unsolved murder on his hands by now.
Yes men, no matter what race,color,creed or status that commit these types of crimes most likely never change.
Considering she was panhandling, and likely homeless, when he found her, she didn't have support to begin with. Animals like him tend to prey on the weak. I know it's another conversation, but we definitely need better resources for people in need.
@@theresagomez2605 If we made it harder for people to come across our border, there wouldn't be so many people needing resources. Then people like this could be helped easier. They have plenty of money to hand out to people who just want to move here buuuuuuuuuuut, they jus can't afford to help the homeless. That makes perfect sense doesn't it?
They’ll spend more $$$ trying to rehabilitate him than they will helping her.
I don’t think they understand how STUPID they look saying “this is something he’s done in the past” LIKE SERIOUSLY
Maybe the local news station reporting this horrific situation are just as enraged about this as we are, and they want the public to either 1) pressure the people in office who are soft on crime to change, or 2) vote differently. They and their families love and work in the same communities as we do, unlike the psychopathic politicians who are deliberately spiking crime and chaos (research Soros DA’s if you don’t know what I’m talking about. While you’re at it, educate yourself on the WEF’s “great reset” agenda aka Agenda 2030).
This might be the first time in decades I’ve given the benefit of the doubt to the media. Only because I’m distinguishing between local media and the corrupt (national) MSM who are enemies of freedom.
Brave lady prayers for her healing ❤️🩹
Why is he allowed out of jail it’s so sick
Because the politicians in power could care less about we the taxpayers.
@@ruthwest1459Exactly!
So essentially what ur saying is this is his 3rd time committing the same crime…what does that say about our justice system??
3rd time we know about. How many other women were not believed or helped.
Prayers to the brave lady that got away . Bless her with healing, health, happiness,love .
Serial kidnapper? Twice before that he was caught, how many other women has there been in between?
And Serial SA also
@@joycecarr1661 and who knows how many he killed in between....
@@inannainai9419exactly what I was wondering, they just caught a serial killer, and only because the victim got away
Good comment. It should be visible at the top.
well lets hope he gets 40 years this time
He deserves life in prison.
@@vxy357this
That's way too lenient
@@danjones6065 It's good enough. losing 40 years of your life isn't exactly a cake walk.
@@vxy357 Omg it's life at three strikes and you shouldn't be satisfied with less.
Not the first time? "he's no stranger to us" says cop? Why was he not kept in prison? He should stay there.
Homeless people don’t have much of a choice! Glad to see her getting help supposedly!
They need to keep him in prison for the rest of his life. He should never be out because he will do it again to another innocent victim. I hope this girl is OK, and she reaches out to her family. My heart goes out to her she must’ve been terrified.
twice before? WTF is doing out of jail?
He kidnapped someone and only got 4 years?! Wow just wow.
Thankfully she got away! Thankfully she's alive. I hope she's able to recover, she seems brave and strong. Praying for all the blessings for her. 🙏
DA's and judges must be held legally liable for their decisions...they are not above the law.
It's sickening that this creep ever got the chance to repeat his crimes. Twice before!! Twice?!
SICKENING IS ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!!🤬
I can’t wait to here her testimony! Healing & restoration❤️🙏
Prayers for complete healing (emotionally and physically) for this woman
This man should never be allowed out. This is crazy.
I'm wondering if he is an illegal alien. If so deport to country of origin and never allowed back in to the USA. Why should we be responsible for his care in prison?
He better stay behind bars for LIFE!
God blessed her. Please officers keep her safe.
The judge that released him and the abuser both need jail time.
This is a failure of the justice system. He should never have been allowed to be on the streets given his history of felonies.
God bless her for taking the chance to get away. Glad she got help.
This is truly unbelievable he’s done this twice before and he’s out of prison?!?!? His prison terms were so short, I think one of them said four years for crying out loud. What in the heck is wrong with the whole overall system. It’s ridiculous. I hope this time they throw the key away, he should never see the light of day again. He does not deserve to be out, walking the streets in any community in this country!
Thank you for helping her, Sir ❤
Thank god she was brave enough to run and is freed
Thank god for the gas station attendant recognizing this women needed help and was in distress
Domestic violence is so real
God have nothing to do with this. If there was a God, this wouldn't have happened in the first place.

NOT SAFE FOR US CITIZENS, TO BE AROUND HIM WHILE U OFFICIALS LIVE IN PAMPERED SECURITY..🤷♂️🤦♂️🤬✌️🥃
He is no stranger to us..that tells you everything..my gosh what is going on in this world...
No, what's going on in America ?
How does this beast get to do this to 3 victims without being KEPT OUT OF SOCIETY!!!!! Our justice system JUST DOESNT WORK anymore 😢
The judge who has released that crap has to go to prison. They have to be accountable just like everybody else. Otherwise this madness won't stop!
how awful. that poor woman. i hope you will get the support you deserve and need.
I hope she recovers from this
The way she can't even run....I can't even imagine what she's going through. With time I pray this is in her past somehow.
Sending her prayers 🙏
Totally unacceptable!! Why was he even out of prison at all?? We need to do way better than this!!!
They will release him on a signature bond.
😮
So he kidnapped someone previously and only got FOUR YEARS in prison? And idiots everywhere don't seem to grasp why people keep committing the same crimes over and over again. With his record, this time he should serve 40 years. Minimum.
4 years for kidnapping someone is unbelievable, there is no justice.
If this is all true and he is ever released, the judges should be placed in prison with him.
Store clerks have to deal with a LOT!
Go ahead and thank our broken justice system and all the judges responsible for putting people like this right back out on the street. Someone who falsely imprisons someone deserves more than 4 years. What is he going to get this time two maybe another 4 years. Then he's going to get back out and do it to the next one. That's how the justice system works in America now. Everyone's an advocate for the criminal and no one cares about the victim.
It’s functioning the way it always has. Freedom for women has never been a mandate of the system. It’s actually Much better than it was.
@@M_SCit can most certainly improve
Thank God she is safe
WTH?!!!! "He's no stranger to us"!!! What the HELL do you mean??!! Why the hell was he on the street in the first place??!! If his ass was locked up this woman wouldn't have been hurt!! Geesh!! Do your damn job people!!! 😤😤😤
My thoughts and prayers to you. Thank God you are safe now.
Why was he out?
covid?
The judge needs held accountable..💀
Three lessons to learn here: 1) Stop letting violent offenders out of jail. 2) Use some common sense and wisdom. 3) Always be armed when you leave the house.
OMG God Blessings and Grace everyday .🙏📿🌹
"He is no stranger to us" qhy do you keep letting him out?😡
The police make arrests. Prosecutors and judges are the ones responsible for sentencing and incarceration times. The police are not responsible for that.
Never have high expectancy for imbeciles who pass the law their complete failures to society..
Oh my god this poor woman prayers
How incredibly what a brave girl. Praying for her recovery ❤️🩹
Parabéns pela ATITUDE da ajuda à essa moça. É ISSO
You guys keep letting this criminals out, the system is in fault
Why was this monster let out of jail ?????
Kudos to the woman that she collected all the courage and opened a happy life ahead 👍👍
Prayers going up 🙏
That man never should have been out of jail. He needs life imprisonment without parole.
The lady who walked in behind her didn't even flinch about this hysterical person in front of her running inside. 😅 Glad she escaped this monster.
My prayers are for this amazing woman...
🙏😇🙏
Wow bless her and her bravery !❤
How can our judges do this he kidnapped 2 women before the judges that let him out should be behind bars with him
He's known to the police??? See this is what pisses me off, why the hell would u let this evil criminal out of prison in the 1st place? This prison system can lock up innocent people for life but can't lock up REAL CRIMINALS for life smdh.
You'll find most "mass shooters" are "known to the FBI", but most mass media corporations are doing everything they can to stop people from noticing this. By "Known to the FBI" i mean are in Discord calls with and supplied with their "tools" by. I put "mass shooters" in quotes because black gang shootings are not counted as mass shootings. The media has an agenda, and they've announced what it is: to convince you that it's "white supremacists" responsible for this. Not the USUAL SUSPECTS.
Prayers for her to recover 🙏 poor lady 😢🙏
God bless her ❤. May she heal quickly ❤❤
I asked AI and it said: Based on these details, this kidnapping incident would likely be considered a federal crime under 18 U.S.C. § 1201, the federal kidnapping statute.
I wonder why he wasn't charged with such the other two times. And, why the penalty isn't harsher.
A.I the new google
He only got 4 years prior, for 2ND OFFENSE, KIDNAPPING? Are you kidding me?!!!
People get 1 year and a fine overhere, it's incredible that these criminals who are a danger to others get to roam free so often. Sickening.
Seems like the governing authority wants men to handle feminism the old fashioned way.
And, I Thank God that she's okay and praying for a fast recovery.❣️🙏🏾🖤
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💗 Praying for this lady.
❤thank you for helping her ......everyone❤❤🎉🎉
Only 4 years for doing something like this? 😩😩 Our judicial system is messed up! This is the third time!! 😡
if they let him out after 4 years on his second kidnapping they should be liable financially for this happening. unbelievable!
Wow maybe this time they can keep the guy behind bars the rest of is evil life.
Sicko
Bless you Asraf 😊
This woman needs help in EVERY way! Bless her heart. 🙏🙏
