That's it, people officially disgust me

AKRONOhio - A brutal beating was caught on tape at an Akron pizza parlor, and now the man responsible is heading to jail. Mark Jones, a 35-year-old Akron man and former convict, was found guilty of felonious assault, and was sentenced to four years in prison.

The incident began when Prestia Sims cut in line in front of Joseph Scarpino at DaVinci's in downtown Akron last July.

Scarpino told his fiance on his cell phone that it may take a little longer to get their pizza, and Sims overheard him.

Security video then shows Sims, infuriated by the comment, begin a long tirade at Scarpino. She swore at him, and even spat at a manager who tried to kick her out.

Then, Sims' boyfriend, 35-year-old Mark Jones, stepped in.

Jones, who is 6 feet 4 inches and weighs 295 pounds, hit Scarpino at least seven times, while onlookers watched, doing nothing.

When it was over, Jones rolled Scarpino over and retrieved a cell phone he had dropped in the beating.

Even then, other customers did little to help as Scarpino nursed a broken eye socket, nose, a concussion and a chipped tooth.

Sims, who is also charged with felonious assault, is scheduled to go to trial March 16.

This infuriates me! First because of the Loudmouth B*tch whp caused it all! Secondly because of that big cowardly fat ass who attacks someone half his size! And thirdly because of all the cowards who let that crap happen!

We live in a world now where no one seems to care anymore, if that had happened even 15 years ago they would have had to peel the attacker off of the floor because people wouldn't have stood there and watched it happen. But not today, I'm sure they would have wnated someone to help them if they were in the same position.

...WTF?!

That is sad...

what a surprise...🙄

But honestly, if 200 people weren't able to overthrow 6 plane hijackers armed with box cutters.

What good are 6 spectators going to do against a mammoth of a human being like her. (oh and the boyfriend too. 😮 )

But they should have done something, I mean I don't know ho´w I would react but I like to think that I would help (now I am actually bigger than that dude) but still, they could have done something

"We live in a world now where no one seems to care anymore, if that had happened even 15 years ago they would have had to peel the attacker off of the floor because people wouldn't have stood there and watched it happen. But not today."

Hah! Nope. 15 years ago it would have been the same.

I think you are right Ush, its sad though

****, what a joke...i would've hoped at least 1 person would've tried to restrain the guy 🙁

I'm glad to see that at least one of The Fat Boys made it back in the spotlight.

Everyone is too fast to say "Yeah you should help" and then in the actual situation, they stand by with the mentality of "Well, why should I help?".

Well thats what I said, but it sure is a nice idea to belive that you would help isn't it

Question - "Well, why should I help?"

Answer - "Because I would want someone to help me."

I've been in this situation before when someone needed help and many just stood and watched. I didn't think twice about stepping in.

I don't get how people can just watch something like that happen.

I'm the kind of person that would try to break up the fight by saying something like "hey man, calm down...he isn't fighting back"

Unfortunately, I'm the same kind of person that gets decked in the face for not "minding my own business"

Which leads to me being the sissy on the floor crying...wondering why everyone else didn't get the beat down like me. 🙁

Thats not a good answer what aboot that

Question: Why should I help
Answer: Shut the **** up you stupid ******* ****ing help.

😠 That disgusts me too!JM

I mean come on though I would of jumped in there and I weigh 100 pounds. Mabey if sombody helped more people would

I hope both the woman and that man die.

No matter how heavy the assailant is, they still have a jaw.
Thety can still be knocked out.
As long as the situation is unfairly stacked against a smaller guy getting beaten up (So long as he's not a rapist or child molestor of course,)
its always "Go..! Attack that bigger f**ker!" that rings through my mind
in that type of situation. 7 times out ten, if you can fight your way past the immoblising shock/adrenaline factor in there you can make that difference even if it means taking a shot of two on the way in....

The shock/adrenaline paralyses a lot of people into freezing which is why a lot of people don't/can't get in there......

I come from a background where a lot of these situations would be seen, and it wasn't 'til I learned Boxing and a few other disciplines that this changed for me. The adrenaline is your friend. It empowers you to be faster, take more punishment and still be active,to be faster and to be most importantly, alert. Such forms as boxing get a bad rap sometimes, and everybody's favorite argument is Tyson and sure, for all we know, that fatass could've had some training, but what if a boxer then saved you from the fate of the victim guy in the video....?
Ive certainly stepped in and never use what i've trained in for bad.

Seriously people, the argument for self-defence training has never been so relevent as in the time we live in now.

BTW.... No I don't actaully run a training club, 😆 I'm just thinking that Im running sympathy for people who slag off boxing or any other mechanism of defence and won't help themselves, in the name of pacifism, when you can be a pacifist who knows how to kick some arse if need be to stop this stuff happening. Sure no one has really come across that way here, but had to get that in..
Yep that man and women were scum.

I love how the guy beside the big Black guy, (when he started hitting Scarpino), just stood there and did nothing....wow. 🤨

"Well thats what I said, but it sure is a nice idea to belive that you would help isn't it"

Ideas don't help without the acting out.

I don't get involved in street fights no matter what. It's not worth me getting stabbed or something in a fight that has nothing to do with me. I understand the want to help but I don't think I wanna explain to my loved ones while laying in a hospital bed "Oh I'm here coz I got involved in a fight that had jack to do with me."
