Here is an article that goes into more detail and offers you some more insight into these girls past. It's from the
Seattle Times
A couple of regular little darlings they are.
From the article:
"Rosenthal (the 17 year-old) was charged in November with second-degree robbery. According to prosecutors, she punched a 15-year-old boy in the face while she and a group of youths were on their way to a rave in South Seattle last Aug. 28. The boy told police that his cellphone and $20 were stolen in the incident. A 14-year-old boy told police that he was punched in the head and his hat was stolen.
Authorities say the case was dismissed when the boys refused to testify.
In April 2008, Rosenthal was charged with third-degree theft after she allegedly stole a minivan in Tukwila, prosecutors said. Kent police said she used a screwdriver to break the ignition and start the vehicle.
The charge was later amended to theft of a motor vehicle. Rosenthal was given a deferred disposition — charges would be dropped if she stayed out of trouble — because it was a first-time offense, said Ian Goodhew, deputy chief of staff for Prosecuting Attorney Dan Satterberg.
Levias (the 19 year-old) was charged in February 2009 with third-degree assault after she allegedly pushed a King County sheriff's deputy down.
According to charging documents, on Feb. 3, 2009, deputies were called to the Ruth Dykeman Children's Center, a Burien center for troubled girls, in response to a report that Levias was being abusive toward staff. When Levias was confronted by Deputy Amy Zarelli, she pushed the female deputy, causing her to fall, charging papers said.
Levias was given a deferred disposition because it was a first-time offense, Goodhew said."
Remember folks, these are the type of people the locals would rather have freely roaming the streets than those vicious policemen.
In the street, cops have to rely on their instincts and training to "size up" those they are dealing with virtually instantly and to determine what's needed to protect themselves and others. After reading this article, I'd have say this cop nailed his opponents.
