I've heard of some stupid reasons to commit a felony....

But this is a classic. Stabbing a woman because the waitress brushed against her leg...
4 suspects in assault of Applebee’s waitress identified

Jul 14, 2018

A waitress required 15 stitches after she was attacked by four women she served Tuesday night at a Henry County Applebee’s, police said.

The women beat and punched the waitress and stabbed her in the forearm with a steak knife, McDonough police Maj. Kyle Helgerson told AJC.com. They allegedly took her tip money before they skipped out on a $62.57 bill.

Helgerson said it all started when the women were having dinner at the Industrial Boulevard location in McDonough, and one of the diners was sitting with her leg out in an aisle.

“The waitress had brushed up against her leg,” Helgerson said. “There was an initial conversation about that.”

The waitress, who is in her 20s, reportedly apologized to the woman, claiming it was an accident. After the table complained about not receiving their food, the waitress went to the kitchen to retrieve it, according to a police report.

“She came back a second time to serve them with food or drinks and brushed up against (the woman) again,” Helgerson said. “That infuriated the suspect.”

The server tried to walk away, but the situation turned violent.

“All four of them got out of the table and began to assault the waitress,” Helgerson said, one of them grabbing a steak knife.

Fellow diners stepped in to break up the fight, and the women ran out of the restaurant with the stolen tips, according to police. They were seen leaving the restaurant parking lot in a white Infiniti SUV...
I hope the county has a better DA and judges than Harris County. In the Houston area these women would have been RoRed by now.

But in all seriousness, what justifies that? Answer, nothing.
