Michelle Chandler, a Colorado mother of five, was changing in a Nordstrom dressing room when she noticed a man recording her under the partition. After seeking help from the staff members, she noticed he was trying to escape so she sprung into action and took matters into her own hands. Two staff members eventually stepped in to help, but soon thereafter store management came in and demanded that the employees remove themselves from the altercation immediately, leaving Michelle and her friend Asia to control the man on their own for at least 15-20 minutes. What was equally disappointing were the male customers who walked right past Michelle and instead of offering to help, pulled out their phones to record.

Thankfully, Michelle is okay and the violator was eventually taken into police custody. The only good from all of this was hearing how taking control her violator allowed Michelle to heal from traumas that she has suffered from since childhood.
