What do you think about the conviction of Rafael Robb sentence of 5 to 10 years for the brutal murder of his wife?
Mona ShawMona what to say about Mona? I think she is one of my new hero’s in the world today. I don’t knot if you guys and gals know about Mona but here is her story as reported on ABC News. A 75-year-old Virginia woman was fed up with her cable company so she took matters into her own hands and brought a hammer with her. Mona Shaw was trying to switch to Comcast for cable. Internet and phone but the cable guy didn't show up when he was supposed to. Shaw says the Comcast cable guy didn't show up the day she had put on her calendar. Then when he did come she says he changed her phone number of 34 years without her knowledge. And when she finally figured out how to work a prepaid cell phone to call and complain she got a frustrating phone tree. "You know push 1 push 2 so on and so forth. You get to the point where you want to throw your phone out the window," she said. So she took a literal whack at Comcast the largest cable company in the country. Shaw went to Comcast's Manassas. Va. office in person and was told her she'd have to wait for a manager — and she did. But before long. Shaw was told the manager had gone home. Comcast disputes the details. But by this point. Shaw's frustration had turned to fury. "I just came down went to my husband's toolbox and reached in and pulled out the hammer," she recalled. "And said 'OK. Don we're going for a ride.'" She said she took her husband's hammer and marched into the Comcast offices. "I hit the keyboard," she said. "And I knocked over the computer monitor." Shaw swears she's not a violent person just determined. "If I need to get something done. I'm gonna find a way to get it done," she said. Shaw is a retired Air Force nurse. She and her husband. Don enjoy square dancing. They foster dogs that need homes. But on this day she'd had it. Not long after Shaw's show of rage the authorities arrived. "The next thing I know a police officer comes roaring in," Shaw said. "When he said put down that hammer well I did right on the telephone!" I don’t condone violence but this is absolutely awesome. I don’t know how many times I have had the same poor customer service. I don’t know how many times I have wanted to do the same thing but with bigger companies who knows where the customer service office is located. I have the all in one cable service and when I call customer service my call will be directed all over the United States. What is one to do?I know this has nothing to do with the Kocis case but I thought this was awesome and wanted to make a post out of it.
No problem. I love it as well. I had the same thoughts today dealing with my cable company. I had been on the phone for 2 days before being able to speak to an actual person to get my cable fixed.
I have many years of expericence in Law Enforcement and had to leave due to medical reasons. I miss that job... Anyway now I work as a Paramedic in Florida and I love being a Paramedic as well (well some days. lol) I still love true crime cases
