I hate this so, so, so much.
This makes me absolutely ill:
92-year-old Hanka Fogelman, a Holocaust survivor, has spent about a month recovering at a rehabilitation centre. We wish her a complete Refua Shlema.https://t.co/qW8qUZxrZj

According to Fox News:
A car was sent to pick her up, and the driver of that vehicle, according to Fogelman, warned her to stay away from the young man, who was also sitting in the back seat of the car.
“The driver knew that he was aggressive … said not to talk to him,” Fogelman told Go Public, CBC News’ investigative news unit. “[He said] he’s aggressive. He’s a little dangerous.”
Fogelman reportedly told police the man began to hit and punch her. “The blood started coming out from my nose. I didn’t know what to do,” she said.
The driver, in an internal STM report obtained by CBC News, said the two passengers hadn’t spoken before the alleged attack occurred. The man was writing on a piece of paper before he “suddenly hit the client seated to his right, without any apparent reason.”
This makes me want to cry.
WTF is WRONG with the POS that ALLOWED this to happen?! He KNEW that man was dangerous, and he let a little old lady come into his cab with him?!
Fogelman’s daughter, Debbie Rona, said the 92-year-old “had a broken nose. Lacerations on her face… Black and blue.” Rona told Fox News that her mother has been experiencing “PTSD and flashbacks” from the alleged assault, and “doesn’t understand how this young man could have attacked her in such a violent way.”
Neither do I. This is unthinkable.
Her attacker? He’s not facing ANY charges because he’s “mentally ill.”
…but what about the cab driver who ALLOWED THIS to happen?!
WHY IS HE NOT BEING CHARGED?!
I pray for her and for a painless recovery.
