BRECKENRIDGE HILLS • A Tennessee woman grabbed two knives from the shelf at a Family Dollar store here Tuesday and began stabbing a customer in the head, fatally wounding the victim.

Cameka Cathey, 34, of Memphis, was charged with first-degree murder and armed criminal action in the attack. She is accused of stabbing Marybeth Gaeng, 65, inside the Family Dollar Store at 9730 St. Charles Rock Road.

Cathey entered the Family Dollar store and retrieved two knives from the shelf, according to court documents. She then approached Gaeng and stabbed her in the head. While employees were trying to help Gaeng, Cathey stabbed her in the head again.

Police said the two were strangers.

“They did not know each other,” Police Chief John Griffin said. “There was no conversation, nothing, during that time. She just approached the victim and just started stabbing the victim in the face and the head area.”

Gaeng was taken to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead.

I almost got surprised by an idiot thief and a potential thug a couple of months ago. White, like me.

All I was trying to do was make a simple, legal transaction I’ve probably made 100 times around me at a convenience store. The thief must have been either a meth head or an alcoholic. A liar and backed up by her idiot employee.

I eventually got back what was legally mine but what an ordeal. Maybe there’s lead in the water down there.

There out there. You can walk into a homicidal racist just about anywhere now. Thank the deep state.

"Stealing a car is only a misdemeanor ????"

Read the article. Seriously. From Findlaw.com:

"Wobbler Crimes
California auto theft laws are drafted such that it may be charged as either a misdemeanor or a felony. Crimes of this kind are sometimes referred to as "wobblers." The severity of the charge depends on the circumstances of the offense and the offender's criminal history."

Apparently, if the car value is "under $1,500", it can be written off as a misdemeanor, and a ticket is issued. He/she/it walks.

Yeah, I was surprised, too. No mention of the fact that someone who loses a "$1,500" car is more likely to be unable to replace it.

Just another reason that: To paraphrase the Untouchables. "I want to get these f#cks where they breathe! I want you to find these nancy-boy democrats, I want them DEAD! I want their family DEAD! I want their house burned to the GROUND! I wanna go there in the middle of the night and I wanna P#SS ON THEIR ASHES!"

Do it to them before they do it to us...

(Sigh) I see Memphis residents aren’t content to just kill each other in Memphis.

Note: I live in Memphis.

I’m all for bargains as well, but I find the prices at some of these places are only lower because the package sizes are smaller. Our Wal-Mart is on the edge of a swamp, where contamination prevents any housing development; it is away from our residential area, but smack between Newark & Jersey City - cops are there constantly. If you’ve ever been on the boardwalk early in the morning, it is disgusting how much garbage is around (they use mini street sweepers to clean it up very nicely before the crowds arrive again); our Wal-Mart parking lot looks like that early in the morning (but it is safe and uncrowded). Couldn’t imagine what happens there from 1 pm on, when the gibsmedats wake up and venture forth...

iirc, she broke into the place to steal the car, so it would seem to be breaking and entering as well as grand theft. But this is a new world, especially in St. Louis County. In this latest instance, no hate crime charges, even though one story reported that she said she attacked the victim because she was “old.” Even if you factor out race, isn’t it still a hate crime to attack someone for being old? McCullough is right in that the victim would be alive if the local jurisdiction had issued a warrant for the earlier crime. Seems she did enough in Memphis that she probably should have been safely locked up down there already.

In other St. Louis news: The St. Louis City prosecutor is dropping 91 criminal cases because she charged 4 St. Louis cops with excessive force in dealing with protesters after another cop was acquitted in a shooting case months ago. Bucking former policy, they let the cops stay on the job while they were under investigation, the upshot being that now the notorious city prosecutor claims that all cases these cops were involved with during the investigation are tainted. Thus, 91 alleged criminals walk, which suits the prosecutor just fine because the goal is to ameliorate the “racial disparity” in incarceration. Such is “justice” in the St. Louis metro area.
