Gofundme campaign for hero who apprehended rapist in NYC subway

[marylander1940]

Maurice Osborne, the 37-year-old Brooklyn resident who made headlines last week for taking matters into his own hands by apprehending a rapist who brutally attacked a woman on a subway platform in the Bergen Street station in Park Slope, is now getting a heartwarming thank you in the form of a crowdfunding campaign. Aimed at helping pay for Osborne's tuition as he studies to become a medical assistant, the campaign was started "on behalf of all women everywhere" as a united effort at rewarding a good samaritan.

I just gave $25. My second contribution to a gofundme. It's a very worthy one.

I may be just getting cynical, but watch the rapist sue him for bodily harm and or mental anguish or some trivial such.

 

but have to say like the go fund me campaign for him!! truly worthy.
