I watch the Active Self Protection Channel on YouTube- the guy who hosts it is very well versed in self defense- but does anyone here know how to fight against an attack like that from the moment she started to climb up the stairs and forward? How can one even fight that? I mean she was trapped the moment she started climbing the stairs. Personally, I would’ve knocked very hard at a few peoples apartments on my way up - but wouldn’t have opened or gone into mine.
I think she should have went to get the knife in her kitchen. Instead the bad guy got it and used it on her. Always try to get an advantage somehow.
The problem started when she didn't notice the guy following her. Always be aware of your surroundings, especially in rat city aka nyc of 2022.
If she had better awareness maybe she could have closed the door to the building behind her before he got in.
It's all arm chair I'm doing but to run these scenarios in your mind and perhaps physically in a drill (krac maga) may help someone in the future.
Crime statistics show exactly who you should avoid in order to remain safe, yet many people live like moths flitting around a burning flame.
Get away from the predators! As a multitude of recent stories proves, they will kill you!
I taught in an inner-city school for more than 30 years and I know what I am talking about.
I spent the first half of my career thinking I was going to help misguided ghetto teenagers towards successful lives, then spent the rest of those years with the realization that most did not want to change. They reveled in the thug life! Welfare, single motherhood, gangs, violence, et al.
One of my retirement goals was to move where predators don't live. I came to Maui and have enjoyed the safety it provides for the past 8 years.
Now, they are now starting to show up here.
What does this have to deal with the woman being murdered?

Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Jay Weiner granted the district attorney’s request to remand Assamad Nash, 25, who was charged with murdering the 35-year-old creative producer and leaving her butchered inside her bathtub after following her home early Sunday.
Prosecutors also charged Nash with sexually motivated burglary – shedding light on a potential motive in the grisly crime.
While arguing the government’s case, Assistant District Attorney Dafna Yoran said Nash attempted to deter police from entering Yuna Lee’s apartment by imitating a woman’s voice.
“We don’t need the police here – go away,” Nash told police, according to Yoran, as he barricaded himself inside the apartment for roughly an hour-and-a-half before NYPD’s Emergency Service Unit busted the door down.

The victim has sadly passed away. Unfortunately, there is nothing else to be done as far as her life is concerned. But I thought that this thread can be made more beneficial if it also included the topic of self defense - especially for women who live alone. I think at this point, crime in this city has gotten way out of hand.
