Army veteran beaten outside San Francisco home concerned suspect could get release 

People need to start suing the city. This is an extremely terrifying incident.

Get your army buddies together, find him and show him some army love.

Unbelievable. He already has a LONG criminal history. There should be a "habitual criminal" law that puts these people in confinement permanently if they refuse to live a responsible life. Let alone when they're violent.

These corrupt politicians, Prosecutors and judges need to be held accountable.

But if someone beats the shit out of crazy dude to death, they go to jail right?

You mean writing letters to corrupt officials doesn't work? Wow. I would have never guessed that. That's crazy.

Thank God this man lived and hope justice is served 🙏🏾✝️

Bruh that attempted murder. And he stabbed someone before too, come on

Oh no! I was born and raised in San Francisco. This sounds like a typical day . Which is why after 30 years I'm leaving this city. It is not safe and the city officials do not care. I've been chased by multiple crazy homeless people and followed. My friend child was kidnaped while she was taking her kid for a walk and the police let the suspect go didn't even arrest him because he was homeless. A co worker of mine was attacked with a machete. Living in the Bay Area feels like I'm in a third world country it's scary.

Only way this stop is street justice

I live in San Francisco for about 12 years, was talking to my neighbor who is an Asian older lady in her 80’s and she was telling me she avoids going out as much as possible in fear of getting rob or worse getting attacked. The owner of a nearby by store told me he has to close his business before dark and send his employees home before sunset, afraid they of being robbed or attacked. Very sad a once beautiful city has become like this.

Maybe the lawyer should be held accountable for getting people like this freed!!

I wonder if the public defender actually believes the bs she's saying. There is nothing in the world that could justify what he did. Even in a hypothetical where he is attacked by someone else first; to drag and beat and almost kill somebody who is already unconscious is evil

Prayers for a complete recovery. In Jesus Mighty Name Amen I survived such an attack 4 years ago.

After the city has been warned people should be able to sue. California needs to build a facility for the homeless and mentally ill in the desert and provide these people some peace.

God bless him. He's fortunate to be alive and functioning after that attack.

A total monster looks like human is harassing and injuring decent people's lives and the city ignores it. How tragic!

Aww I’m so sorry.. pray there is justice for the man. God be with you ❤

Praying for him. This is beyond horrible! The person responsible will attack others or possible toe tag them. He’s a threat to public safety. It shouldn’t take someone losing their life for them to lock him up for life. That evil person needs to tendon locked up.

"He who does not punish Evil, commands it to be done" ~ Leonardo Da Vinci

Obviously the suspect is well known to the locals and police, yet they barely show a clear mugshot of the suspect to help others to avoid. Wonder why......

what a shock, just look at him

That's why I believe in vigilante justice

My God this man had many angels with him. Totally amazing he survived this savage attack. God bless him he's okay and not brain damaged. That's truly a miracle. Hope his attacker rots in jail forever. Definitely doesn't deserve to live with decent people. Please post the outcome, praying for justice. 🌷.

Remember when diversion was for first time, non-violent offenders? It was never meant for killers.

That statement from the public defender was something else. I don’t remember in the law where defending yourself from being yelled at or even pushed (if that happened) includes knocking someone unconscious and then continuing to beat them severely to almost the point of death. Don’t remember that one in the law library. People who live in these neighborhoods need to take care of this themselves. Don’t call the Police and watch your identifiers. Assume you’re on camera.

Even if the veteran told off the homeless guy, that’s not excuse to slam his head into a light post. I think there’s just a point where you just have to lock them up. I live in the Bay Area; I E seen those types of people…

Wow, so sorry this happened to you hang in there.

Thank the presecutors thank the judges for this. I'm shocked they release the lic of the suspect considering news don't even give us a description or race of the criminal so we can watch out anymore

i was on a business trip and got mobbed by transients pretty hostile, demanding money and cigarettes when i walked out of a convenience store. i will never go back there . complete insanity

I remember when 3 strikes was implemented in the 90s and there was the story of the guy facing life because he swiped a piece of pizza from a kid. Apparently 2 strikers we're dealt with harshly too. I remember thinking the pizza guys fate was too harsh but now it's gone full circle.

Horrific 😭 I'm so sad this happened to him

I love that man, Mr OJai Ojay he's amazing thank you for your multiple services and his outlook is so honorable and upstanding

I'm so sorry this happened to you.

WE THE PEOPLE ARE FED UP! WE NEED TO FORCE JUDGES AND OTHERS INVOLVED WITH LETTING CRIMINALS BACK ON THE STREETS TO STOP!!

This homeless is not crazy! He knows he can get away! So he is going around whatever he wants!!!!

Judges and DA should be arrested for aiding and abeding crime

Street Justice is all we have left if that's what the enforcement of LAW can't do

If they let him out, they r dumber than I thought! Disgusting. Do not let him out!

Always be prepared to protect yourself!

who ever releases this guy should be held liable financially speaking when this guy does his next crime

That's NOT simple assault and battery! Who came up with those charges? I'd sue him. That's attempted murder without question!

Since the politicians & policy’s I voted for when I lived in the Bay Area weren’t in alignment with the majority of other voters, I left. Good to see those who remain are getting the society they voted for.

This is extremely said. But we all know with our weak, corrupt, useless criminal justice system, that monster will definitely be released.

That dude tried to take you out the game, for real!

Prayers, and hopefully he gets Latin meds

Public Defender is a misnomer when it comes to San Francisco.

You all keep voting 🗳 for this, I feel really bad for the veteran but I guarantee you that he knew how dangerous his city is. I remember when people would do anything to vacation in California but now people will do anything to escape California.

they can only be the victims!

The public defender’s cares more of transient POS than for the victims themselves.

I don't believe that this guy, who has a record of violent offenses, is the victim here.

This is tragic. When will America wake up? Poor communities are being terrorized by these same types of guys and the rest of us accept the poor being violated because those people don't look like us. Well, maybe it is time to care about what happens in the poor neighborhood become their crap is harming us. The violence is coming to the burbs and the wealthier neighborhoods. Fix the issue in the 'hood and we will all feel safer walking down the street.

Great Job Newsom I applaud 👏🏼 you have these beneficial laws for everyone 👍🏼 thumbs up bud...

They should send this person to live at his attorneys neighborhood and see how she feels maybe she will change her mind about the person being a victim. He attacked people no one attack him

"He who spares the Wicked, harms the Good" ~ Lucius Seneca (Roman Philosopher)

3 felonie strikes on record and he still walks the streets damn.

Attempted murder, multiple times. Why are they not charged as such.

Non homeless are hurting the homeless, and the homeless are hurting the non homeless. What is happening? Glad he’s alive.

This is happening all over California and as long as the attacker has mental health issues. They get a get out of jail card if they go to jail at all.

Some Satire As a career criminal, this is the best time to be alive! I was arrested again earlier this week, but the revolving door put me back on the street. Soon your gun rights will just be a memory, but I'll still have my armory.The law only applies to you, not me, I do whatever whenever, you see? Rape and murder are illegal too, but that won't stop me from victimizing you. So get up early, go to work and obey your master's, I'll be on my couch, chillin' and relaxin' But when the sun goes down the streets are mine, hell, the streets are mine all the time. While I'm smashing windows and kicking in doors, always remember, my life matters more than yours!!!

It sounds like he was trying to get the homeless guy away from his business before the attack happened. Instead of calling the police to do it, he tried to do it himself and got curb stomped in the process. He should have just called the police.

Injustice to the victims. There should be exceptions to the rule. .

But let's keep supporting and housing the scum of the earth in this city. Absolutely disgusting to basically give them a city for them to do as they please. Us as upstanding members of the community fall victim to these tragedies.

city and gov does nothing. business owner hoses someone and everyone acts like the owner is evil

This man clearly needs help. Im sorry to all those involved. Our government is pathetic

NOT UNPROVOKED. Thank YOUUU. I didn't even need to watch to the end of the clip to KNOW this wasn't an unprovoked incident. I'm happy at least Fox was fair enough to mention videoed proof the "aggressor" was actually the targeted victim. They set people up so bad in SF, it's not funny. Buzzwords for me.. "Ex-Military", "The entire neighborhood complained about him", "Unprovoked"... 🛑 THESE PEOPLE ARE BULLIES. They get on their stupid tracker apps, hassle "targets" all day long then film them when the person finally breaks down. IT'S CALLED REACTIVE ABUSE...then they rally together for.a witch burn. These folks are sick. I've seen it. A lot of discrimination & racial profiling...they hassle whoever they feel doesn't deserve to be there...LOOKING FOR EXCUSES TO ENACT CITIZENS ARRESTS & OTHER BULL CRAP.

That criminal would not be tolerated in AZ, people go missing in the desert all the time, it’s a harsh environment!

Our system just continues to disappoint

I was almost murdered by strangulation in front of cops, they saved me, but were going to let perp go if I didn't press charges, I was still dizzy from the atrack

what is wrong with people these days, have they gone crazy

Don’t forget to pay them taxes people of San Francisco!! Also do it with a smile and never ask questions of where it’s going or complain about lack of services. You are not the priority and they will get paid no matter what.

Next time someone may not be so lucky to survive his attacks

This is why the crazy homeless come and stay in SF. No consequences.

These violent people should get a housing from the area the politicians live - I'm convinced that would change how these evil reckless people are released to commit their crimes.

I’m glad you’re alive

If a dog bites someone, the owner can be held responsible but this city leaves the homeless out on the streets to do this.

Sutton has two felony strikes and what could easily amount to an attempted murder charge and they want to give him diversion?

hope SFPD and the city pays his medical bills

Can we send some gifts to Nadia the PD to express our thanks for standing up for the poor folks, who only wanted to scare, assault and injure innocent people?

That's INSANE, sooo SENSELESS & sooo LAWLESS! It's just NOT FAIR!😠😡😾 I would definitely SUE the city. ☹😠😡😾😿

It seems like 0J should be able to sue the city for his injuries due to incompetence.

Let the people not taking some action on a crime where someone is violently attacked, take the attacker to their homes and see if they keep defending him.

I had a buddy who went there and got his brains beat out with a chain he died do you think anyone did anything in san Francisco smh.

Victims have no laws that protect them or society from beatings or murders . The aggressive felons have all the rights .

The public defender only cares about the money over people’s safety

This is the work of alameda county and San Francisco County DISTRICT ATTORNEY letting the People of bay area who commit crimes out Vote for better DA's

Every time someone do some stupid things,they called that Mental health issues instead of taking them to prison.

Release this homeless man into Gavin Newsoms custody, because he is responsable for this .# useless Governor.

Vote better. Hope victim fully recovers

If the Justices system allows this what are they there for ? The suspect will be have to be handled by the people if they let him out

He's an army veteran, he should openly carry and defend himself

Its either you or them...be alert and prepared to decend yourself! Street justice now.

We need mental health care care and housing for the unhoused. Also happy the survivor is alive.it’s take to take care of all of our people. Things like this happen when you leave folks out in the cold with no real options …

The assailant is living on the edge ...

Nadia Iqbal, his public defendant, is another example of our perverted justice system 👏

didn't even have to see the perp....already knew. ✊🏿

Gotta love these progressive policies.

Post the video and let the truth be known!

So liberal. It's working out great. Keep it up San franpsycho. Keeping it classy

Guy with criminal history and mental health issues will go unpunished, instead we will focus all of our forces on that business owner that spreyed homeless with water the other day. This criminal system doesn't make any sense to me.
