I truly feel bad for this girl. The question is though why would you ever get into a vehicle with a total stranger. It’s just looking for trouble.

Spare the false indignation..

I have the same compassion as the next person, thank you. The fact remains that, very sadly, these horrible incidents happen more frequently than you might realize.
My previous comment was my answer to the question "why was it posted here?" Question: why is a small weekly out of Ocala regularly posting here on TOTV? To up their readership, is my guess. That's all.

They are posting in their sub-forum given to them by the TOTV Team.

" The Gazette - Local Villages News
Hello TOTV Members -

We were contacted by a local news media company months ago (not affiliated with the developer or any other online news outlet) that gives independent news and breaking stories for The Villages, Florida. Our team here at TOTV has been monitoring and enjoying this refreshing news content about The Villages and residents in The Villages. After months of consideration and review, we voted to let their articles be posted on our site each day. We are putting it as it's own forum so our users are able to comment on the articles and provide feedback or discussion.

They are local, focused on local Villager stories, FREE and not sensationalized news.

We hope you enjoy the content!

TOTV Team "

If you used your brain......

Because I care about more than myself.......

And before any of you have anything to say about me......

Yes a true Floridian! Before our beautiful land became a bunch of houses. And for anyone who says this has nothing to do with “the villages” let me ask you something. What if it was YOUR granddaughter???? Still feel as selfish now??

Signed, Someone who knows there is life beyond the villages!


Wow! You sure are angry and harbor a lot of prejudice against villagers. You should be thankful the development of this area has given you a job.

So you are a "true Floridian." Who cares? Do you think people should not be free to move about this country? Should I live my whole life in the town I was born in?

I will never use Aloha Cleaning knowing you harbor such hatred for the people paying your bills.

Such arrogance.

No, I did not. I just chose not to address it.

People all over the world are victimized every day. I generally don't feel more or less pain for them due to their location relative to mine.

People do, however, fear for their own safety if a violent crime happens very close to them. It's natural and I would not hate someone who reacted that way.

Totally agree! Why did she get in to this truck “unless she knew him”?

ARE YOU KIDDING?
This is a happy happy place and TV gods want to keep it that way.

Lots of home health care workers come from many different communities surrounding the Villages such as Umatilla, Eustis, Mt. Dora, Ocala, Williston, etc.

One or more of them might recognize the truck or its driver from this description in the news source.

I am feeling judged and need a hug.

richs631 01-26-2022 12:58 PM

Don’t be so quick to judge. Not everyone on this site lives in the villages. Personally I have been here for over 3 years and only encountered 1 person I’ll classify as an idiot.

As he said...you totally missed the point.....and no you don't need a hug. Obviously you are yet again trying to make fun here.....here's a little secret: you are not funny...but saying things like that makes a person look clueless, rude and repulsive.......your choice
