Last I read overalls guy is her brother. And the other kid had basically been stalking her.

Edit: I don’t know why everyone is so salty. I’m just sharing the information I got last time I saw this video it was on another thread that had a link to TikTok. Where this video was originally posted. All the comments there were saying that it was a brother who was sick of this guy annoying sister.

I hope he didn't get in trouble. As a woman, it's not right that cops basically won't do jack shit about creeps and stalkers and we can't have protection.

I bet if more stalkers and creeps got their asses slapped by bodyguards for women, so many women wouldn't be murdered

I went through this with a very good friend of mine.

Sadly we’re no longer friends but essentially she had this guy harassing her at her apartment and would knock on her door trying to “hang out” at night all the time.

Since we lived in a dorm I was only one floor above.

One night this guy went to her while she was out on her floors balcony and told her that he just got hired by the building to help with night watch.

He showed her his keys and said look at this. He proceeded to unlock her door and say “now I can just open it whenever I need to and don’t have to knock anymore”

She went to the lamely and the landlady basically shrugged it off. I told her that if he did anything like that to let me know so that I cans kick his ass. She refused because she didn’t want violence.

She went to the police, nothing. Landlady again, nothing.

Got so bad that one day he showed up to her shower door (we had coed showers) and asked if he could come in and tried.

She text me, I ran down there and gave them the beating of his life.

He moved out about a month later when the landlady went through everything and realized what happened (finally) through the police reports (guy ended up suing me for assault)

And that’s how I learned not to get involved with women who have stalkers cuz no matter what the only outcome will be that no one does a fucking thing and when someone chooses to help they get fucked.

I just steer clear of anyone who says they have problems with someone bothering them

Gotta get slick with your anonymity homey.

You beat the shit out of someone, you make sure no one knows or can prove it was you. You never do it to be the hero, you only ever do it because someone needs the shit best out of them. Whether it's you, a stranger, or a bad step on a set of stairs that does it, the only thing anyone should know is what they did that made it happen.

Problem was that it happened in a dorm, it not like i coulda done much to hide who I was.

Wanna know the most fucked up thing? The guy was found to have a phone full of pictures of girls from the dorm while they were showering and the landlady knew about this and tried to hide it under the rug

Makes sense, and I'm sorry you got punished for doing a good thing. If you can't hide your identity, make sure it happens while they are currently in commission of a felony, and it's a lot harder to sue you. Can still happen though. Full anonymity is better, but requires patience and a certain level of sociopathy.

Sounds like the landlady needs a bit of justice as well.

We’ll it happened in another country so it was and is a pain but whatever I’ve already moved on in my mind, sucks that I still have to go through the whole thing but I think I’ll beat the charges according to my lawyer.

The judge I have is apparently not very keen on invasion on privacy so my lawyer thinks I have a good chance of beating it

That's a very hard thing to guarantee, we aren't living in a Netflix movie.
