Five Cumberland County sheriff's deputies were disciplined for not preventing a Trump supporter from sucker-punching a protester they were escorting out of a Trump rally

Unless you’re living under a rock and get no TV, you’ve seen video of a protester bring escorted out of a Trump rally by deputies when suddenly he gets sucker-punched by a Trump supporter. Well, those deputies, five of them, got stomped in deep shit by Moose Butler, Sheriff of Cumberland County, North Carolina.
During a March 9 Trump rally at the Crown Coliseum in Fayetteville, protester Rakeem Jones kept shouting at The Donald as the presidential candidate was trying to deliver a speech. Cumberland County deputies then escorted Jones out of the coliseum when suddenly John Franklin McGraw, a 78-year-old dipshit, jumped up out of his seat and sucker-punched the protester in the face, an assault and battery caught on cellphone videos and seen by millions of viewers on TV and on social media.
Moose didn’t take kindly to what he saw. His deputies failed to protect Jones and they did not take dipshit McGraw into custody. The Sheriff disciplined five deputies.
Three deputies were demoted in rank and suspended for five days each without pay “for unsatisfactory performance and for failing to discharge the duties and policies of the Office of Sheriff.” Two other deputies were suspended for three days without pay for unsatisfactory performance and the failure to discharge their duties. In addition, all five “have been reprimanded and placed in a probationary status for the next 12 months, and admonished not to fail to act and directed to comply with the requirements of Sheriff's Office policies concerning proper response to apparent criminal activity.”
Moose said: “The actions of the deputies and their failures to act in situations such as that which occurred during the Trump rally at the Crown Coliseum have never been and will not ever be tolerated under the policies of this office. We regret that any of the circumstances at the Trump rally occurred, and we regret that we have had to investigate all of these matters. It is our duty and responsibility to do justice, and to carefully examine not only the actions of others, but our own actions to ensure that the law and our policies are justly and fairly enforced.”
McGraw was subsequently charged with misdemeanor assault, communicating threats and disorderly conduct.
McGraw bragged on camera about whacking Jones. He told Inside Edition: “You bet I liked it. Knocking the hell out of that big mouth. Yes, he deserved it. The next time we see him, we might have to kill him. We don’t know who he is. He might be with a terrorist organization.”
And when Inside Edition asked why he punched Jones, he said: “Number one, we don’t know if he’s ISIS. We don’t know who he is, but we know he’s not acting like an American, cussing me… If he wants it laid out, I laid it out.”
McGraw is unhinged and belongs locked up at Babbling Brooks Farm. He took on an ISIS fighter. He bravely took care of someone from a terrorist organization.
McGraw should have been busted on the spot. Why he wasn’t is a mystery to me. Maybe the dipshit didn’t get busted because the deputies escorting Jones were also Trump supporters. Anyway, those five deputies have paid a heavy price for not preventing McGraw’s assault and then failing to take him into custody.
