Three Women Hailed As Heroes For Stopping Alleged Date Rape
Friends Sonia, Marla and Monica were out for a drink at a nice restaurant in Santa Monica, California when they saw something that was "no joking matter". Monica noticed a man at another table holding a vial and dropping some liquid into his dates drink when she had gotten up to go to the bathroom.
The women were stunned. "After a few 'Oh god. What do we do's', I got up to find her in the bathroom to tell her," Sonia explained on Facebook. "Warn her. Tell her to get up and leave this creep. Make him drink it. Something."
She decided to follow the woman and approach her in the washroom. She told her what her girlfriend had seen and the woman was stunned. When Sonia asked the woman how well she knew the man, she responded, Hes one of my best friends.
Sonia rushed back to her two friends and Marla alerted a staff member. Staff security immediately acted and reviewed the security camera footage. Read more at http://www.reshareworthy.com/three-women-stop-alleged-date-rape/#bZvzHoZhMK0xOViw.99

Cops are beginning to get the idea that someone somewhere will almost always have a cell phone to film what they do. Maybe POS men in general will start getting the hint that women aren't going to take this kind of shit any more either. Kudos to the three women who saw something, said something and kudos to the restaurant staff for taking the women seriously and responding appropriately.
