Cleveland's Charles Ramsey Has Extensive Criminal Record - Still A Hero?
Well that didn't take long.
Charles Ramsey, who helped rescue Amanda Berry and two other women from 10 years of captivity in Cleveland has an extensive criminal record, according to The Smoking Gun. He evidently did prison time and has an extensive criminal record for domestic abuse. So how will he be perceived and portrayed now? Does this matter? I vote no, it shouldn't matter. MAY 8--"The Cleveland man credited with helping free female captives from a house of horrors is a convicted felon whose rap sheet includes three separate domestic violence convictions that resulted in prison terms, court records show." "Charles Ramsey, whose 911 call and subsequent TV interviews have made him a microcelebrity, was once a repeat spousal abuser whose marriage ended in divorce following a 2003 felony conviction for battering his wife." http://www.thesmokinggun.com/documen...ramsey-8702415 |

The first time I saw his picture and that interview, I thought he was that "looter dude."

It doesn't change my mind, a persons past is their past, let God judge that. He did a great thing and should be commended for it.

Was it really necessary for the media to dig through this guy's past? He did a heroic deed, celebrate him for it and leave it at that.

Why does everyone HAVE to be either good or bad. Everyone is somewhere in the middle. The day that he needed to be a good person, he was great.

If you want to give him credit for his heroic deed, I agree that it doesn't matter. If you are holding him up and calling him your "hero" on Facebook you might want to reconsider, though.

He's just a guy who was in the right place at the right time to make a difference.
Nothing more, nothing less. I doubt he fancies himself a hero either. |

The crime of loving McDonalds should have been a dead give away.
