Some people are quick to forgive those who have wronged them, choosing to let go of their anger in order to move forward. Bernice Starnes, 86, is not one of those people.
The feisty Bronx, New York, resident is publicly calling out the woman who she says stole her purse on Sunday as she sat in a wheelchair outside her apartment building. "She wants to hurt me," Starnes told PIX 11 News in an interview Wednesday. "And the bitch don't even know me." As far as Starnes is concerned, no punishment is too severe for the suspect; she said she hopes that when the woman is behind bars, "they beat her ass every day for as long as she's in there." When asked by the interviewer if she was being too harsh, Starnes snapped, "Well, so what? What she did to me was even worse," later adding, "I'm supposed to feel sorry for that bitch? I don't!"
