the_archfiendAccording to Tim Profitt, the real reason he stomped on Lauren Valle's head is because - wait for it - he has a bad back:
Profitt explained that he used his foot to try and keep her down because he can't bend over because of back problems. He also says police were alerted to watch her before Paul arrived because people in the crown recognized her as someone who may try and pull a stunt.
Uh huh. Like a ton of other people in the US, I have a back that periodically tightens up on me. When that happens, getting up out of a chair can be some serious fun, although walking around after I push myself up isn't a problem. Jogging or running, on the other hand, no. And stomping anything - even an ant - will be only slightly more pleasant for me than for the ant. In other words, I find it really, really implausible that Profitt would choose to engage in any strenuous activity like stomping another human being's cranium into a curb if his back was in such poor condition.
But hey, if you wanted chutzpah, here 'tis:
"I don't think it's that big of a deal," Profitt said. "I would like for her to apologize to me to be honest with you."
My guess is that his upcoming court appearance might change his attitude, but I doubt it.
