Republican State Rep. Bob Young has been arrested... AGAIN. - wife beater gop guy

My first DU post on him
https://democraticunderground.com/10718359




https://www.news5cleveland.com/news/local-news/ohio-state-rep-bob-young-arrested-again

Snip-"A local lawmaker, State Rep. Bob Young, was arrested for the second time in two months after he violated a protection order stemming from his first arrest, according to Summit County Jail records

snip-"The protection order authorities say he violated was issued following his arrest for allegedly assaulting his wife and brother back in July.

He was charged with domestic violence and later pleaded not guilty. Despite calls for him to resign, Young refused. In July, he issued a statement that said the recent stress he was under caused him to act poorly. Young said that his actions weren't criminal but were "inappropriate and out of character." He said he had taken steps to seek counseling voluntarily in order to "address some of the issues that led to this incident."

It is unknown how he specifically violated the protection order"

if he will announce that he is "seeking counseling" to help him address his most recent violation. So he went after his wife and his brother, then got released after pleading not guilty, was ordered to stay away, violated that order and was arrested again. Something tells me the counseling isn't working.

..... a man's home is his castle. That his wife and children are his chattel subservient only to him.

That at anytime the mood struck him the man could beat and pulverize his family. Absent a hint of any forthcoming punishment - provided he does not kill them and bury them in the backyard by the lilac bushes.

he'll be too lazy to bury them. The question is will he kill himself afterwards - I think not. He thinks he can BS his way out of any legal trouble. If his wife has a brain cell or two in her head, she'll head to a blue state state that has laws in place to hide her actual address. Meaning she too has to be very, very careful to whom she gives her geographic address.
Got a neighbor with similar anger and self-esteem issues. Won't be surprised to see the body bags come out of the house (he won't kill himself). If that happens, I'll be providing LE and state's attorney employee names to the cops. I will in turn call immigration as the neighbor has been in the US for over 20 years and *not* became a citizen. It is sad some women don't have the backbone to leave, much less do what is best for their kids.
