Woman Beaten & Forced to Drink Bleach

WCNC News interviewed a woman today who was viciously attacked by her former co-worker, 19-year old Dyshericka Bell.

The attack happened last Tuesday at a pretzel shop inside the Carolina Place Mall. According to the news report, (and footage of the victims bruises) Bell beat and dragged her former co-worker and even made her drink bleach! Bell had been fired from her job at the Pretzel shop a few days before the attack.

The sad part in all of this is that Bell was only charged with misdemeanor assault and battery. As usual, this isn't the first time Bell has been arrested for assault and battery and she has several other prior charges in addition to her many assault charges. At the time of her arrest last week, she had three outstanding felony warrants for 2007 charges of breaking and entering- with force, damage to property and possession of stolen goods.

According to her DOC record, Bell's record goes back to 2001, when she was arrested for damage to property. (Note: I am not sure this information is accurate because she would have been 13 in 2001 and her conviction date was not until last September.) Bell was sentenced to probation and a suspended sentence. Hopefully, the attack last week is considered a parole violation and she spends some time in jail to (hopefully) learn a lesson!
