Megyn Kelly's McKinney Cop-Defender Probably The Real Thug

Posted by Ellen -7841.60pc on June 09, 2015 · Flag

Who could have guessed that the "Sean" who called the police on African American teens at the McKinney, Texas pool party, because he didn't like their music - and whom Megyn Kelly teamed up with to paint the kids as thugs - would likely be the real thug? UPDATED.

As I described in my previous post, Megyn Kelly offered very little challenge to Sean as he told her viewers that a white police officer behaved appropriately when he pulled a gun on a group of African American teenagers at a pool party and threw a 14 year-old girl into the dirt. Sean never said so but it was clear he had been booked to promote a Blacks Behaving Badly scenario and Kelly was an active helpmate. 

Apparently, she and her Fox News producers were so excited to find someone to promote their agenda, they didn't bother to check who their star witness was. Or maybe they didn't care.

But lookie what I just saw on Twitter, via Renee Obey and Oliver Willis. Why, it turns out Toon has an arrest record for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon!

In her interview with Sean Toon, Kelly made it seem as though Toon didn't want to use his last name because he was afraid of reprisals from (black) thugs. But maybe he didn't want it known who and what he is. Of course, he could have been found not guilty of the charges. But we never got to find out because Kelly never asked.

Watch Kelly's lapdog interview from the June 8 The Kelly File, below.

UPDATE: It turns out Toon's record is worse than I thought. From The Guardian:

In November 1999, aged 18, Toon and three high school friends were arrested and expelled from school after vandalising the agricultural centre of a rival high school district and attacking animals housed there, many of which were owned and cared for by school children.

“Cows and pigs were cut and bruised, apparently beaten with wooden boards. And baby turkeys were slain, their limbs torn apart,” the Dallas Morning News reported at the time. Dale Gardner, a teacher in the school district’s agriscience and technology program, told the newspaper: “It was brutal. There’s no way to describe it. I’ve never seen anything like it.”

...Toon pleaded guilty to felony criminal mischief and was sentenced in August 2000 to 285 days in jail and fined $300.

In September 2000, Toon was charged in nearby Denton County with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, according to court records. After pleading guilty to an unspecified lesser charge, Toon was sentenced to 75 days in jail.

Further, evidence has come to light that he verbally assaulted the teens in attendance, telling them to return to their “section 8 housing” and calling them “black f******”. When a 14 year old WHITE RESIDENT stood up to him, the white women he was with began verbally attacking her. The 19 year old who threw the party (who happens to be black), told them they shouldn’t speak to a child like that at which point one of the women slapped her, the other white woman who was with her then joined in. The “fight” that occurred was between these two white MIDDLE AGED women and a 19 year old girl. Funny how he didn’t mention that in his interview.

Seeing how Matt doesn’t have anything other than that he thinks he knows better, and was somehow there for both Toon’s arrest and the party… Let’s move past him, and give Ellen an update. I’ve been meaning to jump back in on contributing, so how about I start with this?

Yeah, Matt… Your hero is a convicted animal torturer, as well as a scumbag who committed aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and got 75 days in holding because he cut a deal. What was the point you thought you had originally? That no one does their homework but you?

Seriously, I’ll start on this in a little bit.

I see you are quite the troll running your mouth about everything on here. That’s says enough about your character. You must have a very low self esteem to feel the need to be this negative about everything. Awfully judgmental with no supporting facts as far as I can tell from a lot of those past posts. Really quite pathetic but to each their own. Right, Johnny boy?

Yeah. Graduated in 07. Why is that funny? Because you don’t believe me? I could careless what you think. You and your life means nothing to me.

Saved for college, huh? Christ, give it up – you’re making more and more of a tit of yourself, and the comedic effect has long since worn off.

But yes, Denton county jail was nice. In the pods we could go smoke on the bball court, had 2 TVs, a sega, 2 computers, 2 microwaves, carpet, etc… 60 inmates to a pod. The barracks were a little more like what u see on TV. 16 guys, 4 cells and all concrete and steel. Still not too bad. Played a lot of spades and chess. But we all paid more than enough for a verbal dispute gone wrong. But u can sit in judgement all u want and continue the cycle because u will be the one judged next.

Convicted I should say. They charged all of us but they didn’t hold.

Aria, in case u haven’t figured out, my name is not Matt johns. I would never be stupid enough to put my real name out for everyone to see especially since i work with comps and code all day. Give me your name, I can get you IP and the rest is history. But you can debate me on my job later. The reason I know more about this case is because I was the only one actually charged. Sean and omid were not. Get you facts straight before talking again. They were released when I accepted the DA’s plea bargain because he wouldn’t prosecute with the actual facts. Not a single punch was even thrown. An argument between a bunch of guys and everyone in my car was arrested because I had a knife…which I used for work when I was working at a factory to save for college. So I know all too well how Sean feels about cops after that BS. So just stop. You sound like a fucking moron debating this shit with someone who was involved in it. And no felony charges were brought on me. Go get court records if you want to verify this. In fact, I may even let you PM me just to prove you wrong.
You know what’s funny about all this stuff going on though? People don’t want to be judged by the color of their skin yet you have no issues judging others. Racism will always live on if ppl keep doing that. I’m starting to think ppl want racism to live on so they always have that scapegoat. At least the ignorant ones at least.

John, mg… no calling out Matt John’s lies.

The lightest you can get for aggravated assault is one year, and that’s if considered an act of self-defense where you kept going past a certain line, and you’re in a state that believes in that as minimal sentencing.

This happened in Texas. Do I need to say more about how likely it is Toon made a deal? They were even nice enough to let him serve his 75 days in county jail, and not prison.

But I do hope he comes back- It’s always good seeing these “not racist” trolls try telling a video that it’s wrong.

Yes, anyone who does a barrel roll while approaching a bunch of kids in bikinis has to be on some mind-altering substance. But, it might be even worse: his attitude might be his normal, drug-free self. I think I heard that he had some past problems.

I do like it when one of these racist knuckle-draggers gets brave enough to take on his intellectual superiors (let’s not get coy, friends). It’s especially funny when the initial foray doesn’t get the reaction he wanted – “My gosh, we pasty liberals are completely outgunned by this remarkable person. He sure knows his stuff! Maybe I should stop this futile resistance and simply embrace the universal truths that them coloured folk are by nature not worth a plugged nickel, that billionaires deserve special pampering ‘cos I got me a ticket in the lottery, and good ol’ White Jaysus will be back for me any minute now.”

Step 2 is kicking in now. Of course our new pet goat lives in McKinney, has INTIMATE PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE of the people involved and was ACTUALLY THERE, like ON THE SCENE when the whole business WENT DOWN. Obviously.

What are you talking about? Toon plead guilty to “aggravated assault with a deadly weapon”—serving 75 days (time served). https://opencourtrecords.org/case.php?id=4051460
Yea, a real hero.

And don’t pretend to know me or anyone like me Aria. You, like this article, make very grand, assumptions that at the end of the day, are incorrect. The reason the bond was set at 15,000 is because when it is originally 150,000, your lawyer will force a quick grand jury response which lowers the bond. At the end of the day Sean and another individual did not get an Ag assualt conviction because as you so,elegantly said, “the evidence didn’t point to them.” In fact, the person truly charged was not even done so as a felony or assualt of any kind. They were examples of cops misusing power. Again, more reason why he wouldn’t side with a cop unless he thought it was the right thing given the situation. Just because someone sees something differently doesn’t give you a right to cast judgment. But I bet you are better than everyone else, huh?

Aria Prescott, I know more about the situation than you, trust me. You read a paper, I was there! And clearly my point was too elaborate for you to understand. But I’m sure you have something in your past we can all hold over you. But does that define you? Do people change? If not, I guess these teenagers will be at it again later. And then you will have a new stategoat to blame. You are an ignorant person, clearly. Probably not worth my time either. And actually, none of those ladies are Sean’s wife. His wife is very thin. You people don’t know a damn thing. It’s pretty sad. If you actually looked at social media you would clearly see his wife looks nothing like that. I also know her personally so most of us are laughing at those statements.

No way to tell which of the cows(sorry for the slur against innocent bovines) is Sean’s wife but his punishment will be having to see her naked.

I’ve seen reports to that effect too, Sandra – that Toon’s wife and her friend were using racial slurs. I don’t know if it’s true or not but that is what the girl who was hosting the party and some other witnesses are saying. Both Toon’s wife and her friend (Tracey Carver-Allbritton) have been identified via their social media accounts.

I also just saw some reports (around 4:30pm) that the officer in question, Eric Casebolt, resigned from the McKinney Police Dept. this afternoon.
Sandra Duffy commented 2015-06-09 17:02:33 -0400 · Flag
Apparently it was Sean Toons wife that started the whole thing of with the racial slurs too.

So, lemme get this straight, Matt…

Agrravated assault is a"mistake," and we’re not allowed to talk about because “the charages were dropped” and “it was 15 years ago.”

That’s funny, because it seems like with people like you, I see a pattern: If someone you agree with breaks the law, it’s to be seen as a “mistake,” and people aren’t even allowed the time span of a normal coping process. But if you don’t agree with the person, it could be something as innocent as a gaffe statement, or shenanigans when they were eight decades ago, and it has to still be held against them like a felony committed earlier that day.

What Sean Toon did wasn’t a “mistake,” and I’d like to see where they let him go because “they arrested everyone,” because let’s play a little game called in the real world: Let’s say there’s a bar fight, and someone is stabbed in it, the charges go to whoever the evidence points to. It’s as simple as that, and unless something down the road pointed to him taking the fall for someone else, like the new, terrible episodes of CSI… The only way he was getting the charges dropped or reduced is a deal.

Toon got the charges because the evidence pointed to him, and he was put on a $15,000 surety for a reason. If you had read the actual report, instead of whatever far-right cesspit you’re quoting, you’d know that, and you’d know the five Ws in some level of detail.

And in terms of how this reflects on Toon’s character, this is a special level of fail, because he went on national TV and said that how the cops treated those kids was perfectly acceptable to him, then went on his social media and said that his own case of similar police incompetence warranted pity for himself. In it’s best light, it’s him telling us that this kind of arrest procedure is acceptable to him if he’s not the one being arrested. In almost any other light, it’s him saying that he approves because the black girl was shown excessive force for her role in the fight, while social media is petitioning for equal punishment on the white ADULT WOMAN who started it.

By the way, I’ll give you three guesses how much your comment said about you, and you probably still don’t realize it.

Funny. You talk about research but didn’t bother doing your own. The Ag. Assault you speak of was never prosecuted. All charges dropped. Why? Police just arrested anyone at the scene. Sounds to me like he would have no reason to like the cops after pulling that on him. I also find it funny that many of you ignorant people out there want to promote a country where we don’t judge someone based on their color, religion, etc… yet so many people try to judge Sean without knowing him. Quite hypocritical. I don’t expect the ignorant population to understand this. They would rather judge someone else but scream “foul play” or racism when it happens to them. If any of you people out there want to make a change, try leading by example instead of judging others the way you say they judge you (by the color of your skin in most cases). I have yet to meet a person that has never made a mistake so I don’t judge them before knowing them. Glad to see you rising to the challenge. Another point of interest, the crime he was arrested for, was over 15 years ago. Get over it.

I saw that too, Eyes on Fox. As Newshounds reported, while interviewing police defender, Sean Toon, Kelly didn’t tell her viewers about his own past bad behavior. But, this morning, Hasselbeck made sure to tell the viewers about the past bad behavior of Dominique Alexander (who is calling for the firing of the police officer who took down the teen girl).

After some discussion of the McKinney incident, Hasselbeck said, “I just want to bring this to the front though in fairness to our viewers who many, um, have brought to the attention of the public that you yourself, uh, were reported to the cops by a neighbor that you were grabbing your girlfriend at the time as she walked away fro you, that you have a history of anger and that when your girlfriend tried to call the police, you took her phone to stop her. And they’re saying who are you to step in and say this officer shouldn’t be dealing with a female this way when you yourself have had a history? What do you say to those critics?” He said that was she read (from the Dallas Morning News) was incorrect and he moved the discussion back to the incident.

In the 2nd hour of F&F, the 3 stooges brought up the McKinney incident again and played part of Kelly’s interview with Sean – without telling the viewers anything about HIS criminal past (despite having plenty of time to have read about it after Toon was outed online). However, as they continued the discussion, they once again mentioned Alexander’s “checkered past” (as Kilmeade called it) in what can only be called an attempt to discredit him as they went on to describe even more things from Alexander’s “checkered past” (such as a high speed police chase). Kilmeade went to say the it is the police officer who has a good track record.

So it’s a FOX “news” tale of 2 witnesses – one who defended police behavior and one who critiqued it. The one who defended the police doesn’t have his past bad behavior mentioned on air at all while the other one’s past is expressly made known to their viewers, you know, out of “fairness to our viewers”. Pffft.

Here you go! Fox News “Fox And Friends” just went whole hog flacking for the cop. They ran tape of Sean’s Megyn Kelly interview as proof the cop’s actions were justified. No background mention. The black guy in the previous segment? They ran a clip from Hasselbeck’s interview then immediately went into full smear mode to discredit him by digging into accusations against him.

Fair and balanced? You betcha!
Eyes On Fox commented 2015-06-09 07:01:01 -0400 · Flag
“Fox And Friends” Elisabeth Hasselbeck has no problem, apparently, asking a black guest brought in to discuss this topic about their background.

A black youth who has investigated the incident was brought into the “Fox AndFriends” circus tent and since he was a critic of the cop her task was to pimp the standard cops are heroes GOP TV meme. He did surprisingly well arguing with her – I’m sure Fox News figured he’d be an inexperienced mark easy to rattle and embarrass – so it wasn’t too long before Hasselbeck bared the fangs and accused him of mistreating his girlfriend.

In defending the cop, I found it interesting Hasselbeck kept overlooking the fact he pulled a gun on a teen pool party. Seriously? Maybe the clown should have called in SWAT for backup?
