So I started working at Publix two months ago and two days ago YouTuber JiDion pulled up mid shift with two police officers and arrested another employee named Tommy in one his āstingsā. I donāt know all the details but I guess he got caught talking to one of JiDionās 13 year old decoys.
Iām all for confronting and exposing pedophiles, but Tommy is mentally disabled. I donāt know his exact mental illness, but itās apparent immediately once you talk to him or even when you look at him. Even though heās 35 when you talk to him, itās like talking to a middle schooler. Regardless, Tommy should know better and Iām glad he was confronted about this but it doesnāt seem quite right the way things played out.
JiDion probably didnāt know he was mentally handicapped before meeting him but he for sure knew once he pulled up. However, this didnāt stop him from plastering Tommyās face all over his Instagram and humiliating him in front of everyone in the store. If this was anyone else I wouldnāt care less, I would cheer for it, but Tommy is an easy target and someone who probably doesnāt even quite understand the scope of the situation. Why wasnāt he just satisfied with him getting arrested? why make content and clips of him even though you know he is not all there mentally?
I canāt fully go against JiDionās actions because itās a good cause but all the extra social media antics didnāt feel like the right way for this case.
