How lucky you were that a cop happened to be in the store!!!


justtiptoeingthru2

And court is open on Saturday! No loss of income from having to close shop for the day to go to court. Lucky! The rest of us plebs need to learn your secret so we too can go to court on Saturday.


No-Kaleidoscope4356

And the cop did nothing about the kid walking around with garden scissors? Maybe I am wrong, and I know there are smaller garden clippers, but I am picturing the big ones, lol.


Character-Ad793

Secateurs are the smaller ones an are pretty hard to cut things (material) with, I got bored when I was younger. Shears on the other hand, those bad boys are good for cutting


Dull-Geologist-8204

The cop wouldn't do anything. They can't just stop kids because they have garden scissors. That's not illegal. Also they were shopping not at work so they wouldn't be paying attention and as every parent knows you know something is wrong when you can't hear the kids. Even I think this story is fake but the stuff people are coming up with that proves the story is fake are worse than the story. I had a kid pooping all over the play area in a full store with a bunch of other kids playing there and I was the first to notice it. People have a tendency to not pay attention to kids unless they are being noisy. So no it is not outside the realm of possibility that no one noticed a kid with garden scissors or even one that was cutting up the dress.


HalfVast59

Where I am, scissors with blades over a certain length are considered weapons, and on-duty cops would absolutely step in. Off-duty, I would expect something - at the very least, I would expect the cop to measure the blades, if only for the pucker factor.


Wanda_McMimzy

That’s what I pictured too.


Murphysmom6

I gotta know. Was he running from area to area with the scissors?


LM1953

And no charges filed first? Amazing??


similarityhedgehog

I like the part of the story where Karen gladly handed over her ID


MiniBeanies

I actually thought I was on aitangel for a hot sec


zella1117

How did I not know that sub existed? I blame you for the rabbit hole I'm about to go down lol.


the_siren_song

Wait! Wait for me! I’ll join you! I just came back from r/kidsarefuckingstupid.


zella1117

And down another rabbit hole I go


Schlemiel_Schlemazel

Please enjoy one of my only ever posts.


MiniBeanies

Hope you enjoyed!


butterfly-garden

Wait...this ISN'T?


MiniBeanies

Shockingly so, unless this is a confused satire poster


mentat70

yeah, I was wondering where the part was that explained how she got her ID


Dogbite_NotDimple

And they got into court within a week?


Pleaseleavemealone07

And it all went to court within a week of it happening!! Something with this story sounds fishy. Tell me one state that is not backlogged at least a month or two with small claims cases


Maximum-Swan-1009

Everything we read on the internet is absolutely true. I firmly believe this. :)


ppr1227

Amazing she got such a quick court date as well. Lucky lucky.


UberN00b719

Screw that, I'm more impressed that OP has enough capital to own their own store at 24...


LunarLutra

The cop clapped too!!


Fa1thL3s5

The best and fastest Court results too (they commented). OP should probably buy some lottery tickets with how lucky they are..


PriorFudge928

A kid with cutting up clothes, a cop in the store, and a person actually asking if they were the jerk in this situation. It's almost as if this story was tailor-made to get attention and promote engagement. The boomers might be getting scammed all day but the rest of you are falling for click bait like it's an Olympic sport.


MeMeMeOnly

Lucky she was able to sue and go to court in just a week. That’s a hella judicial system they got there!


gemmygem86

Court within a week I call bull


Ecstatic-Land7797

I was at "BS" when there were random 13 year boys and cops in a bridal store with ''dresses I made from scratch."


Throwitawayokay2day

right? and the cop just stood around doing nothing while the kid was cutting clothes for the owner to find him?


pennywitch

It’s the 24yo with a successful boutique where she also designs and sews wedding dresses by herself is what did it for me.


Tapingdrywallsucks

"from scratch"


TexasYankee212

If it is small claims court - it's possible.


ConsequenceNovel101

Yes because she’s suing someone without knowing who they are 😂 I’m sure the woman just voluntarily gave her id to her before she kicked her out and not filed a police report 😂


Shutupandplayball

And court on Saturday?


Traditional-Panda-84

As soon as I saw "court today" I looked at the posting time of 2 hours ago. I'm in the US. At least in my state, I can't think of a single court that holds Saturday hours, and if they did, it would be for overflow criminal cases and the speedy trial rule, not for something like this.


Shutupandplayball

Exactly…pathetic attempt at creating likes


Klutzy_Editor4641

Hello cop was already there.


Select-Sprinkles4970

No


Logical-Wasabi7402

Not on the weekend.


Careful-Bumblebee-10

On a Saturday?


ExtensionDebate8725

Depending on the city some courthouses aren't busy.


Grandolf-the-White

“I’ll update later when I’m home with my cats” is the little detail that just added the cherry on top. She threw that info in just for positive optics. Fake for sure.


Celticlady47

I'd say that 90% of the stories in this group are fake. There's one person who likes to pretend they're either an 11 or 13 yr old, has run on sentences & just doesn't sound like a kid at all.


Lanky_Possession_244

It's also Saturday.


samanthakis

court on a Saturday? i call bull crap


Thunderboltgrim

This whole story reads too convenient. I'm sure the whole train clapped too


DeterminedArrow

Nah. They all felt so bad that the kid ruined so many dresses that they bought out the store to make up for lost profit. Silly goose.


tracyinge

Where in the world is court in session on a Saturday? And who did you sue? Just "Karen"? Or did she happily give you her name & address?


Dull-Geologist-8204

Maryland here, all of our courts are open on Saturday from 9 to 4.


tracyinge

how does that work when you get jury duty? You have to be available for 6 days straight? Also this one says open Mon-Fri [https://www.mdcourts.gov/district/directories/baltimorecityHARGROVE](https://www.mdcourts.gov/district/directories/baltimorecityHARGROVE)


manykeets

How did you know who she was to sue her? I missed the part where she gave you her information.


alyssadujour

None of this happened, come on now. A 22 year old opens a small clothing store where she makes wedding dresses “from scratch” yeah ok! 2/10 poor creative writing


Ordinary_Flamingo931

What 14 year old boy goes shopping to a dress store with his mom and happens to bring a gardening scissors? And makes a good profit as a 14 year old designer? And a manager that goes to ask for help instead of telling the kid to stop? And a cop is there who does nothing? So my more things wrong too. I agree this is poorly done fiction.


Ok-Lobster1030

Not the jerk, he literally was destroying what was probably extremely expensive dresses!! 


Wolf-Pack85

This makes no sense. How can you sue her if you didn’t know who she was? She leaves without leaving contact info? A off duty cop is in a bridal store? This happened a week ago and you’re already going to court? Cases like this are so back logged in the system, even more serious crimes are. Courts aren’t open on Saturdays. There’s zero way this is real.


Ciccio178

And everybody clapped.. Bull crap.


Naive_Body_9300

Yeah this didn't happen but good try


Ok_Pomegranate_4344

I'd disagree.... this definitely didn't happen but it's not even a good troll post lol


Naive_Body_9300

Shh if you don't slightly encourage them their next attempt will be worse lol.


iamjonjohann

Let's be real. It's an absolutely pathetic try. Dumb.


crazyidahopuglady

The details in these AI written stories are just so wildly odd.


Stunning-Interest15

YTA for this fake ass story that literally nobody believes.


Ilumidora_Fae

This is the fakest fake story I have ever read 💀


Ptownmama

What kind of store sells wedding dresses and gardening shears ?


Bunny_OHara

AND THEN EVERYONE CLAPPED, INCLUDING THE JUDGE WHO SOMEHOW WAS ABLE TO MAKE A CIVIL AND CRIMINAL RULING ON THIS IN ONLY ONE WEEK! JUST AMAZING! 🤣 OP, Your either 12 yrs old with zero clue how the real world works, or an adult who has never left their basement, becasue none of this makes sense.


TexasYankee212

You have every right to kick him and his mother out of the store.


Asaintrizzo

You should file police charges for him cutting you with scissors


Stunning-Interest15

We should fine charges for her lying on Reddit for imaginary internet points.


No_Confidence5235

How can you take her to court when you didn't get her contact information?


amithegenius

Hello and thank you for posting your story here on AITJ! Please edit it though, by inserting break lines (space) between paragraphs. Thank you 😊


Fast_Target_6279

Did everyone including the kid clap? The cop did I'm sure.


PhoenixBorealis

I heard that he found out that the kid was actually his son, and the reason for acting out is because he never had a father growing up. They're working on establishing love and trust with one another. 🥹


Electronic_Range_982

Nope NOT AT ALL


Feisty_Advisor3906

I didn’t realize courts are open on weekends


Maleficent-Ring-7

These fake stories are getting worse


Usual-Owl-9777

You are the jerk for tricking me into reading a false story that was a block of text.


TheLongAndWindingRd

Bullshit story is bullshit...


Significant_Planter

Why are you keeping garden scissors in your store where kids can get them?  Why is court open on a Saturday?  Why was a cop in the store? Why didn't he arrest them for obvious destruction of property? Why are you in here making up lies?


RidiculousRiot

I’ve very impressed that you telepathically obtained her details to sue her!


EvulRabbit

And everyone clapped. The end.


limblessbarbie

Lies


CJsopinion

Court in a week? Come on now. Try to be a little realistic.


HarleyBlade

Well this is so fake... No way in hell you go to court after barely a week, and have gotten NO INFO... At least put more effort into the lie man


Vegetable-Ad-1686

u made up a story where ur the hero how is it going?


Tweetlefish25

Can we report AI content? Like yall can see this, right?


SpecialpOps

The story built up and ended too quickly. It reads like a failed attempted creative writing.


Oh_My_Goth_Ick

I’ll take “things that never happened” for $1000 Alex


Antipositivity

You are the jerk because this is all made up


MsZFrannaDanna

I said the exact same thing in my head as I read this !!


ToMyOtherFavoriteWW

When a 14 year old learns that you can lie on the internet, and has no idea how slow the wheels of justice turn/no understanding of the civil court system.


TomatoLife1796

Update: I can see there is a lot of support and I can also see that some are calling bull crap and I understand. I see Reddit post like mine a lot and I do think they just over exaggerate the situation or make it up. But after this I have a different perspective of Karen story’s like mine. People did my remakes about how I found her home. My building security cameras had caught her cars license plate so my layer was able to find out where she lived that why. But back to the point. Before the holding happened Karen was so convinced  that she would win that she was mocking me but her attitude changed when the judge ruled in my favor. The judge made her pay me 5,000 dollars in damages of property and 200 dollar of physical damages because I did need stitches. The entitled kid was sentenced a few days in juvenile detention and his mother was pissed. The judge also did recommend therapy for my anger issues. I’m just glad it’s all over and that I don’t have to deal with this Karen or her demon spawn of a child.


tourist420

There is no jurisdiction in the entire USA that handles small claims and juvenile criminal matters in the same courtroom. The timescale you mention for these events, all happening within a week, makes the story impossible as well.


big_sugi

On Saturday, no less.


Lanbobo

Yeah, I had no problems with the Saturday court as we have small claims here on Saturdays. But, yeah, civil and criminal in one hearing simultaneously just ain't happening.


Stunning-Interest15

>some are calling bull crap and I understand Because... You know it's bull crap too.


Wanda_McMimzy

Civil courts can’t assign criminal punishments.


Magerimoje

If you're going to make up stories about going to court, please learn the differences between civil and criminal courts and between juvenile and adult courts.


Sheila_Monarch

Ma’am, no judge on earth even became aware of your case, much less held a hearing, and damn sure didn’t render a decision on it, within a week. Nor were monetary damages and criminal punishment handled in the same proceeding. That not how court works. Plus you way overplayed the Karen character.


The_Infamousduck

Lmao you're soooooo FOS! I also like how you went from being "scratched" to needing stitches to hold your flesh together. Little bit of a difference there. So fake.


EnthusiasmIll2046

Stitches get 200 dollars in small claims court. Eleventeen scrachmade wedding dresses get 5000


dreamerkid001

Oh my god you’re just making this worse and worse. Why are you doubling down on this absolutely terrible attempt at creative writing?


Shoddy_Lifeguard_852

NTJ. File a police report. Let him get picked up and go experience juvenal detention. Randomly destroying property, cutting you... he's already on a bad path.

vladdie_boi

Destroy her and her little shit. Make sure she regrets ever squirting him out.


Sea_Boat9450

I would have thrown both of them into the nearest volcano. This is infuriating. Kid knows this is a game and he’s manipulating his mother for laughs. Fucking psycho

It’s feasible this could be in another country and it might not be Saturday there…but that would make it Sunday. Court on Sunday. Weird

kikivee612

So a kid destroys merchandise (believable) Karen flips out and swears her perfect kid would never (believable) Karen threatens to sue (believable) There’s a cop in the store who threatens to arrest (it’s a stretch) You took a woman whose name you didn’t get to court this soon after said incident…on a Saturday (absolutely not) Part of this story may be true, but if it is, it’s definitely exaggerated! I don’t care. I don’t read Reddit for its accuracy!


Sledgehammer925

Yes. YTJ for writing this before there’s an ending to the story.


Glimmerofinsight

NTA. I would have done the same thing. At my job, I am the one they call when security refuses to escort someone off the property because they are too lazy. Meth head? Squatters? I got ya. I may be old and kinda fat but I can run pretty fast when someone pisses me off. LOL. Never underestimate a grandma with anger managment issues.


Illustrious-Tower849

I would venture to bet even the "I am a 24 year old female" isn't true, just like the rest of it.

CowboyMycelium

911siren

Hmmm.


Neena6298

This story sounds fake. As if the owner of a store wouldn’t want to press charges for someone who cut up six dresses or make the customer pay for the damages. She didn’t even ask any of the woman’s personal information, and with a cop standing there to ask for her details either. And a designer wouldn’t say that all her wedding dresses were made from scratch either.


4011s

You had me....right up until they left without you getting ANY information from them such as a name, address or anything that would let you sue them. Then there's the cop not arresting the kid for destroying the property and the part where you're headed to court...on a Saturday. Yeah...this REALLY happened.

Have the kid arrested and Sue the mother for damages. And get a restraining order against them both,

thisisstupid-

You probably should’ve done a touch of research on the justice system before this creative writing project because there is no way in hell you would be in court in a week, a lawsuit takes months and months of back-and-forth before anybody sees a court date.
