I don't know if this makes it better or worse, but my read on the article was that there was a struggle and screams and (presumably Jayna) was heard pleading with the attacker "let's talk about this, what are you doing, etc" but then there was a silence, then later, a different woman (presumably Brittany) was saying "god please help me, please help me."
So to me, that actually seems like yeah, something pretty f8'd up went down over there. Harder to imagine someone not calling. But I don't think, to be fair, at any point they heard Jayna screaming for help. Then again, thank god, I wasn't there. And maybe I'm misreading the article.
No, this is how I read it, too. They thought some fight was going on, but Jayna didn't call for help. She was pleading with her killer, but what they heard her say was hardly asking someone else to intervene. Maybe they should have. I hope I would have - I have called the police many times for suspicious cars, and even a baby riding without a car seat on I-66. But I don't think any one of us can claim we KNOW we would have called 911 in that situation. We all have the benefit of hindsight.
Unless someone physically restrained me, I do know that I would have called 911 if I heard anyone screaming, along with the other sounds they've described. I've called 911 for less--when I thought someone was having car trouble, a woman walking along the interstate with a blanket wrapped around her and clearly muttering to herself, a man in a convertible hitting his dog, etc.

Nobody said they are refusing to buy Apple products, just that they don't want to go to that particular store. No need to give those douchebags any commission.
It's two people out of all the employees from that apple store...no need to call them names.
I wish I could say that I would have helped for sure but I don't know what I would have done. I don't think it makes me a bad person, I just think we can't judge until we're in the situation ourselves.
I always go to that apple store and always get great service, so I will continue to go there, instead of getting just ok service at the other apple stores.
What happened is not the apple employees fault.
