Florida Sheriff Says ‘Enough’ After Chick-fil-A Incident with Serial Groper
Florida Sheriff Grady Judd is angry and I don’t blame him. Meet Awny Abdel Malek Basta. This 57 year old sex offender, is back at it again, proving he’s mastered the art of being a creep. This time, his disturbing antics got him in serious trouble.
According to FOX13, this happened at a Chick-fil-A on South Florida Avenue. A 16-year-old girl, focused on her schoolwork, got a rude interruption when she felt something on her backside. Guess what? It wasn’t her chair shifting… It allegedly was Basta’s hand.
Turns out, this wasn’t some one-off creep move. Basta’s got a rap sheet so long, it could probably wrap around a drive-thru twice. Surveillance footage in the restaurant captured every detail, confirming the girl’s claims. When she confronted him, Basta decided to dip, hopping on a city bus like he thought he could just vanish into thin air. Guess what? He couldn’t.
Here’s where it gets interesting: Chick-fil-A staff weren’t about to let this guy make a getaway. They tracked him like a pack of crime-fighting heroes and flagged down the bus. Florida Sheriff Deputies caught him in a nearby parking lot, and that was that. From chicken nuggets to handcuffs in no time flat.
Florida Sheriff Won’t Sugarcoat:
This isn’t Basta’s first time causing problems. In fact, his history of groping dates back to 2006. Just last year, he pulled a similar stunt at a Starbucks. You’d think he’d learn, but no. Basta’s fresh out of prison, having been released just two months ago, and already back at it. Florida Sheriff Judd didn’t sugarcoat it—this guy is dangerous and needs to be off the streets.
Detectives think there could be more victims out there who haven’t spoken up yet, and they’re urging anyone with information to step forward. Basta might have tried to make a run for it, but this time, his ride ended with a hard stop.
Let’s hope this is the last chapter in Basta’s fast-food fiasco
