Random Attack?

Very few attacks are actually random.

Attackers do some degree of planning, including surveillance. They will either put a specific woman under surveillance or a certain location for a target of opportunity.

Kelsey Smith from Kansas became a target of opportunity. Erwin Hall followed her in and out of a local discount store. Basic awareness training could have prepared Kelsey to recognize the signs of surveillance. Simple techniques training could have helped her prevent abduction and strangulation. Smartsafe is dedicated to providing awareness, prevention and self-protection training so attacks and tragedies like this can be avoided.

Keep Up The Awareness!
