Damn shame. A racist California man got into a verbal altercation with two African American men in a McDonald’s parking lot…which quickly spiraled into a physical altercation that ended with him chasing them each down with his pickup truck, killing one, while screaming expletives and racial slurs . And let him tell it, it’s all the president’s fault . Via RawStory : A California man claims he was defending himself last year when he ran over black man, killing him, following an altercation outside McDonalds. Joseph Paul Leonard Jr. burned rubber for 23 feet before crashing into 34-year-old Toussaint Harrison during the June 6, 2013, incident, reported the Sacramento Bee. Leonard, now 62, got out of his pickup and kicked Harrison several times in the head with his steel-toed work boots, authorities said. “Just because we got Obama for a president, these people think they are real special,” Leonard said after his arrest. He had been arguing with two men about 6 a.m. outside a Sacramento-area fast food restaurant, where prosecutors said Harrison and Justin Oliphant had been handing out food to homeless people. Defense attorneys claim the men had stolen the food from a nearby hotel. One of Leonard’s friends said the pair approached her outside McDonalds, and she said he “went crazy and lost his temper” when he came outside. Leonard grabbed a chain from his pickup and confronted the men, the friend said, and surveillance video shows him swinging it around like a lasso over his head. Oliphant said Leonard used racial slurs during the confrontation and stomped on Harrison’s bicycle. One of the men threw a knife and broken bottle at Leonard, investigators said, who suffered a cut on his cheek. The men fled on foot, and Leonard tried to run over Oliphant and rammed into Harrison outside a nearby auto repair shop. An employee grabbed a metal bar from the shop and told Leonard to sit down and wait for police to arrive, and he did. Leonard was quickly taken into custody, and he tried to justify his actions to sheriff’s deputies. “This could have happened to your son if you had one out there,” Leonard said. “This got too out of hand for me, man.” He claimed he feared for his life after one of the men cut him, although Leonard concedes he “became the aggressor.” “I think people are getting tired of being abused by the situation, the way people are being,” he said. “I myself am tired of it. I am victimized every time I turn around.” Leonard intends to testify during the trial, which resumes Nov. 17. His attorney said Leonard plans to explain to jurors that he has previously been seriously injured but no one was prosecuted. But prosecutors say Leonard has previously been a violent aggressor, although defense attorneys have asked a judge to exclude evidence from those cases. Oh sure. He’s such a victim that he couldn’t just get in his car and DRIVE AWAY — he simply HAD to run these black men down because…Obama. SMH. Hopefully he ends up underneath the jail. RawStory

Now, a Massachusetts straight ripped the teeth out of a bartender’s mouth after she allegedly showed her husband what that mouth do. Via MailOnline : A Massachusetts woman is facing charges for allegedly yanking the false teeth out of another woman’s mouth and throwing a beer bottle at her. Caterina Froio-Chaput, of Oxford, was released on $100 bail after pleading not guilty Thursday to assault and battery and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon. Police say Froio-Chaput was refused a drink Wednesday at the American Legion and told to leave. She allegedly started hitting the bartender in the face, then pulled the false teeth from her mouth. After the bartender escaped behind the bar, Ms. Froio-Chaput allegedly picked up a beer bottle from the counter and threw it at her, striking her in the chest. Froio-Chaput told police she confronted the bartender who she believed was having an affair with her estranged husband. She told police she did not have the bartender’s teeth. However, when asked by an officer if he could check her belongings, Ms. Froio-Chaput ripped off her vest and threw it to the floor.

Yung Berg Fired From Love & Hip Hop Hollywood Yung Berg is no longer a cast member of Love & Hip Hop Hollywood. After his physical altercation with Masika in an NYC hotel room on Tuesday night (and his subsequent arrest), Vh1 has decided to part ways with the rapper/producer indefinitely. According to Vh1.com : Based on the severity of the allegations against Yung Berg, VH1 is terminating its relationship with him in connection with Love & Hip Hop Hollywood, effective immediately.

SICK. Woman Taken Into Custody For Sexual Abuse Of Toddler And Pet We can’t think of a recent abuse story we’ve heard that’s much more disturbing than this. Via NYDN : A Louisiana woman was caught on tape sexually abusing a 3-year-old boy and having sex with a dog, according to police. Angeline Lodice, 26, was arrested Monday after the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office police obtained several photos and videos of her alleged sexual acts, according to an arrest report. One of Lodice’s relatives reached out to the 3-year-old boy’s father after receiving photos and videos of the encounter between Lodice and the boy, according to NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune. Lodice said she was the woman in the videos, according to the sheriff’s office. But the 26-year-old said she did not recognize the child because she thinks she was drugged, police said. Police did not say how Lodice knows the boy or the dog. Lodice was booked into the Jefferson Parish Correctional Facility. She has been charged with aggravated rape of a victim under the age of 13, pornography involving juveniles, crimes against nature and sexual battery. If convicted of aggravated rape, Lodice could be subjected to a mandatory life sentence. Interesting stuff being left out here…like WHO taped this and how did the relative get their hands on it??? More importantly…what the hell “drug” makes you sexually attracted to babies and dogs??? She can save that excuse and take a prime spot in her new rightful home — up under the jail. SMH!
Dear Bossip , I live in Mississippi and I have been with my spouse for 6 years. We have 4 boys; the last two are twins. The boys love and adore their father, but I’m getting tired of his ways. I have been wanting to leave MS, but every time that I get the opportunity or I talk to him about it he comes up with all types of negative excuses for me not to leave. One of his favorite things to say is “How are you going to make it on your own?” When I met him I had my own place and one son from a previous relationship. He became physically abusive in Feb. 2014, a few days before Valentine’s Day. He has been verbally abusive since my oldest son was one. I have no one because my mother is dead and she lived a street life, so she knew nothing about what I went through; and my dad was very abusive as well, so most of my people think he’s a good guy. I come from a very dysfunctional family. His mother is a wonderful person, but she’s not able to help me without him being involved. In 2015, I’m planning to leave. I had a temporary restraining order on him but it has expired and we are trying to work things out for our kids. But, I’m ready to throw in the towel. He constantly makes negative comments to me and even talks about me if I gain a little bit of weight, and I’m a size 4! I’m just tired and I just want to know how does a person with kids start over somewhere else? I want to follow my dreams of being an actor, but I don’t know where to start. I do have a little bit of experience and I have my certified nursing assistant license to work. I’m also disabled and have been a victim of domestic violence since I was 13 years old. My father called me a b***h at 13, and the names never stopped. Every relationship that I have been in, which has been two, the men put their hands on me and called me out my name. I’m so tired that I thought about going from bisexual to being a lesbian. So, my questions are Mr. Dean – How do I start over and pursue my dream? My second question is if I do decide to have another man again, how do I find someone that won’t abuse me? – Ready To Go Dear Ms. Ready To Go , Ma’am, I’m sorry and I know it must feel awful being stuck in a relationship, and a place where you do not want to be. However, I feel the first thing you need to do is work on you, your self-worth, your self-esteem, and the many underlying issues that are a result to the mental, and emotional challenges and experiences you are presently experiencing. You need professional therapy. Your focus on another relationship is not healthy right now, and you need to get out of this situation before you begin thinking about another one. Unfortunately, what I’m reading is a woman who is desperate for love. Desperate for attention. Desperate for anyone to pay attention to her. And, if you don’t get help and work on these issues, then you will find yourself in this very same situation again. You are focused on the wrong thing! But, hold up! In your letter you dropped the line that you have thought about going from bisexual to being a lesbian. Uhm, sweetie, how can you just drop that sentence in your letter and you never explain this at any other part in your letter? Does your husband know about your sexuality, and has this hindered your relationship with him? If you’re bisexual, and you’re married, is that another reason as to why you are not happy in your marriage? And, everyone knows that I don’t condone violence, either emotional, mental, verbal, or physical, so, you should not remain in a situation in which you are a victim of domestic abuse. But, I’m concerned that you have allowed your restraining order to lapse, and figured you would work on your relationship for the sake of your kids. I truly feel that is the wrong thing to do. Never ever compromise yourself and your kids for the sake of a man, and what lies he is telling you. If you had a restraining, then I’m sure it was for a very good reason. Make sure to keep it active, and keep away from your abuser. If they’ve abused before, they will do it again. I’m sure you’re feeling like he can change, will change, and will do things differently because he has reassured you that he is a changed man. He’s convinced you that he needs to be a part of his children’s life, and that you and he need to work on your relationship. He’s making promises and telling you what you want to hear. Ma’am, he is lying and he has not changed! Please do yourself and your children a favor and reinstate your restraining order. He will resort to his familiar ways of abusing you very soon, and you will find yourself feeling even more trapped by him. Protect yourself. If you want to leave Mississippi, then you have to devise a plan and put the plan in action. First, since you have your nursing assistance license, then find employment and start saving money. If you want to leave, then save up enough money to last you three to six months. You want to have enough money to move, and get the basic necessities for you and your children. You will have to locate housing, and schools. So, this will require you doing research, and calling around in the city you wish to move to. Second, look for employment in other states that you are interested in going. I’m sure with a nursing assistance license you can find employment. Many hospitals, nursing homes, residential facilities, and other medical institutions are always looking for help. Go online and search and start filling out applications. Third, get into therapy. You need professional help. You have some deep rooted issues that are continuing and lingering throughout your life, especially with the verbal abuse you’ve experienced since you were 13 years old. Why do you keep attracting the same type of men in your life? Why do you keep entering into these abusive relationships? Therapy will help you get to the core of these issues. I also recommend finding suitable resources in your city that can assist you, such as a women’s shelter, or women’s abuse center. I am certain there is one, or a few in your city. Contact them and set up an appointment to meet with them. They can provide you with resources, information, and counseling to help you transition from your situation, and into a more positive and nurturing environment. You need support systems, especially positive and loving ones. Have you thought about your local church, if you belong to one, or some spiritual center where you can build support systems? You need positive reinforcements that can help you and be a bridge of resources and support. You have a lot going on, and you need to become focused, and work on one thing at a time. You’re in an abusive relationship. You have been abused previously. You want to pursue acting. You have a nursing assistance license, but are you working in your field. You want to leave Mississippi. You have four small children. You don’t have any support networks. You are bisexual, and considering becoming lesbian. You notice there is no cohesion in your life. You are all over the place. And, this is what your letter looks like. Therefore, get into therapy. Get into counseling. Find a women’s group, shelter, or center and start with the abuse. Once you work on this, all the other things will become clearer to you. Your relationship is toxic, and you can’t stay in it. He is unhealthy for you and to you. Love yourself. Love your children. Get out of this relationship, and start healing. – Terrance Dean Hey Bossip Fam, what do you think? Share your opinions and thoughts below!

Is Apollo STILL snitching from behind bars?? Peter Thomas Rumored To Be Under Arrest In Atlanta The Real Husbands of ATL are having a little bit of a rough year. Right on the heels of Apollo’s incarceration on various fraud charges , buzz hit the blog circuit earlier today that Cynthia Bailey’s husband Peter Thomas had also been hauled off by cops. The story states that Apollo struck a last-minute deal on his way to the clink, and staying true to his snitch nature , wore a wire while having a conversation with Peter about their illegal business dealings. The takedown of his RHOA castmate could stand to cut his sentence time and get him back out to the strip clubs of ATL in a shorter time-span. It’s also rumored to be a major plot point of the upcoming season, so there’s high drama about the set-up and the subsequent arrest while Bravo cameras roll. But not so fast…no mugshot, no police docs, and no photos of peter being hauled off by cops? Sounds a bit fishy riiiiiiight? Well as it turns out, Peter himself had a few thoughts to share on his latest legal issues. Peep what he had to say about his “arrest” after the jump… Prince Williams / ATLPics
Which of her relationships is she talking about?? Jennifer Lopez Reveals History Of Abuse In Relationships Via PageSix : Was abuse the reason Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony called it quits in 2011? In a short excerpt (via People) from her forthcoming memoir, “True Love,” Lopez, 45, recalls the day she revealed her marriage was over and the thoughts about relationships that followed. The singer was on the set of a photo shoot in July 2011. Things on the outside seemed to be picture perfect for Lopez: She had recently celebrated her seventh wedding anniversary (June 5), her twins Max and Emme were doing well and her newest single, “On the Floor,” had soared to number one around the world. But on the inside, Lopez was struggling with her relationship. “In a blur of fear and panic, I looked at Benny [Medina] and my mother and blurted out the words: ‘I don’t think I can be with Marc anymore.’ Then I burst into tears,” Lopez writes. “It was out. The thing I feared more than anything in the world. I collapsed into their arms and began to sob.” Lopez and Anthony publicly announced their divorce on July 15, 2011. “Hardest. Day. Ever,” she dramatically sums up. In the year that followed, Lopez launched her Dance Again tour, on which she wanted to show the “truth about abusive relationships.” Lopez never says her seven-year marriage to Anthony was abusive, although she once called their relationship “very Sonny and Cher,” and also opens up about abuse in her past. “I’ve never gotten a black eye or a busted lip, but I’ve been in relationships where I have felt abused in way or another: mentally, emotionally, verbally,” she writes. “I know what it feels like for your soul to be diminished by the way your loved one is treating you.” The “Booty” singer’s list of exes include Diddy, Casper Smart, three ex-husbands Ojani Noa, Chris Judd and Anthony and a highly publicized engagement to Ben Affleck. Lopez says it took her years to learn that abusive relationships fall on the shoulders of both partners. “Because every day that you don’t walk out that door, every day you accept things in your partner and in yourself, is a day that you’re saying it’s okay,” she writes. “True Love” is released on Nov. 4. Domestic violence is definitely a hot-button issue…but it’s rare you hear of celebs coming forward to speak of emotional and verbal abuse. We wonder which of her many highly publicized love affairs this story comes from…
