Sanders Ordered To Pay For Brutal Assault

Sanders Ordered To Pay For Brutal Assault

Deion Sanders ordered to pay for brutal assault by son Shilo could be reason for leaving SWAC.

A 2016 personal injury case has led to an eight figure legal judgement against Deion Sanders family. The judgement against Sanders includes his son, Shilo, comes after an assault at the successor to Prime Prep Academy. The successor agency Focus Learning Academy attempted to salvage Sanders’ mismanagement at Prime Prep Academy.

In September 2015, Darjean then an employee with Focus Learning Academy. Darjean was violently attacked by Shilo Sanders – son of Deion and Pilar Sanders.

The attack caused by the younger Sanders hospitalized Darjean for multiple days in the hospital. It also required significant medical care including spinal surgery.

The outburst by Shilo Sanders cost medical providers more than $115,000 in medical care at the time. Per court documents the injuries made Darjean unable to maintain gainful employment due to permanent neurological injuries and damage to his cervical spine.

Deion Sanders had publically denied the allegations and accused Darjean of being a liar.

Darjean is a former New York Yankees prospect who ran free baseball programs for Dallas area children. He also assisted one of his students in, a Townview alumni, with starting a nonprofit to bring baseball for children with cancer.

Darjean’s suit blames Sanders and his ex-wife Pilar of failing to supervise their child and failing to raise him to not act like a savage in public.

Sanders Ordered To Pay For Brutal Assault, But Not Only Issue?

Prime Prep Academy was founded in 2012 in part by the former NFL cornerback. When it was established it had 1100 students in Oak Cliff and Ft. Worth, but things would quickly go sideways.

By January 2015, the school was closed due to financial insolvency. It and its nonprofit sponsor Uplift Ft Worth are still subject to pending court action over National School Lunch Program.

The school was closed with less than an hours’ notice and employees were shocked to find out their health insurance and retirement premiums were not being paid. A lawsuit by six employees helped recover some of their back wages that weren’t paid.

Focus Learning Academy took a majority of the students from Prime Prep Academy. Later the Texas Education Agency closed Focus Learning Academy for violating “Three Strikes” provisions for charter schools.

The elder Sanders is leaving Jackson State University and the Southwestern Athletic Conference. He is the new coach of the University of Colorado at Boulder. There are rumors of financial problems at Jackson State University and possible NCAA recruiting issues.

Bazaldua Plays Hero Behind Fence

Bazaldua Plays Hero Behind Fence

Bazaldua plays hero behind fence again in another forced confrontation with Dallas City Council colleagues.

Bazaldua Plays Hero Behind Fence

Bazaldua was the only vote against an ordinance to improve pedestrian safety in medians and crosswalks.

Dallas City Council approved 14 – 1 a plan that allows citations and fines for people walking on medians or standing at intersections.

The new ordinance is not named or aimed at “panhandling,” but some suggest the intent is clear.

City staff paint a different picture though stating pedestrian-related deaths account for 30% of all deaths citywide.

According to Department of Transportation Director Ghassan Khankarli, “All we’re trying to do is protect innocent pedestrians from harm’s way.”

Focal areas will be on major and minor highways and access streets. The intent is to protect the vulnerable from higher volumes of traffic or higher speed.

Bazaldua Plays Hero Behind Fence

Bazaldua has claimed to support the homeless – until they are on his door step.

In previous years Bazaldua hid behind his fenced community when Keep Dallas Safe brought panhandlers to his neighborhood.

Bazaldua Plays Hero Behind Fence

Bazaldua was also silent when antifa activists acted threateningly during a homeless camp clean up earlier this summer.

Bazaldua lost another fight he picked with his own Democratic Party Precinct Chair.

Some have hinted that Bazaldua sees an opening to run for Mayor next year against sitting Mayor Eric Johnson and former Dallas ISD superintendent Michael Hinojosa.

Oak Cliff Murder 2022

Oak Cliff Murder

Oak Cliff murder this weekend reminds many of Teilor Johnson and the murder and burning of Quincy Wyatt.

Teilor Johnson is the daughter of Maxie Johnson, the Dallas ISD school board trustee, who has consistent issues hanging out with known felons.

Oak Cliff Murder

Trustee Johnson spends significant time with Dominique Alexander. Alexander is the “CEO minister” of the Next Generation Action Network.

NGAN’s “CEO minister” Dominique Alexander is a convicted felon after charges of assault against a child. It is not obvious his relationship with the Dallas schools.

Alexander spent many hours with former Dallas Police Chief U. Reneé Hall.

However, the situation in East Oak Cliff is very similar to the story involving Maxie Johnson’s daughter, Teilor Johnson.

Oak Cliff Murder Details

Dallas Fire Rescue “found a small SUV engulfed in flames.”

The SUV was in a wooded area off the 4600 block of Burma Road before 8:00 PM.

Dallas Police officials state one person was inside the vehicle. The Dallas County Medical Examiner will determine cause of death.

Authorities are notifying next of kin prior to releasing the identity of the victim inside the SUV.

Meanwhile, Teilor Johnson is out on bail currently in what some call a sweetheart deal.

It is unclear why John Creuzot’s office declined to keep her in custody.

Likewise, in another situation, Johnson’s son died in August 2019. This information comes from multiple police and media reports at the time.

Christopher Whitfield Johnson graduated from South Oak Cliff High School in 2015. He was 21 years old when he died in east Oak Cliff.

Police found his body lying in the middle of the street in the 3600 block of Utah Avenue at about 1:30AM in August 2019. A chest wound killed the younger Johnson.

Christopher Johnson is said to have been shot after attempted robbery.

244 School Zone Tickets Issued

244 School Zone Tickets

244 School Zone tickets hit drivers driving too fast in school zones in the first two weeks of Dallas ISD calendar year.

Back to school does not always remind adults to drive with care and caution around schools.

Despite the increased patrols some drivers are not getting the message per one local news report.

“We know the area well,” Hillary Taylor said. “Love the area. Love the neighborhood” referring to their home near Mockingbird Elementary.

However, similar to the Dallas Police Department, Taylor has started to see a rise in people speeding down her road the past few weeks. For Taylor, she said her road is in a unique situation because it’s the first street drivers can cut through to avoid school zones.

This is worrisome for her because she said there are a lot of families with young children oftentimes playing outside, whether it’s during the school year or not.

“It’s not great,” Taylor said. “Especially when you have littles. I mean, we’re out in the front yard and cars are just whipping through.”

Taylor said there are also many students walking to and from school during the day.

“It really just comes down to people being aware and courteous,” Taylor said. “I mean, these are kids. People just totally miss school zones.”

244 School Zone Tickets Issued

244 School Zone Tickets – One Step In Wider Safety Plan

Beyond the school zone speed enforcement, the district is mandating clear backpacks for older students. There is poor evidence clear backpacks will solve district violence issues.

“Clear bookbags are a well intended but relatively ineffective measure,” said Michael Dorn. Dorn is a former police officer and Executive Director of Safe Haven International.

Dallas ISD has not released the results of its parent survey on clear backpacks. They did say they will issue a single backpack to students and will not replace it if it becomes damaged.

In December 2021, parents were notified of an elementary student with a firearm on a bus. At the time, parents said the note normalized the situation.

There were also multiple protests at Dealey Montessori with at least two events where adults were armed on campus.

Jacoby Tatum Wins

Jacoby Tatum Wins

Jacoby Tatum wins partial release yesterday in Dallas 283rd District Court. Retired Judge Grace Lewis ruled Tatum could have leg monitoring restrictions lowered. Lewis filled in for vacationing Judge Lela Mays.

Tatum will maintain leg monitor restrictions, but will have ability to work. He will also have opportunity to attend church services. His house arrest is otherwise in place.

Jacoby Tatum Wins

Jacoby Tatum Wins Another Round Over Public Safety

Tatum was one of four individuals who went on a crime spree on November 16, 2021. The criminal actions ended with the murder of Ali Elbanna in the Costco parking lot in Dallas on Park Lane. 

Tatum is out on bond after Judge Mays dropped his bond in April 2022. Tatum’s criminal charges relate to the armed robbery of two teenagers at South Oak Cliff. They also attempted armed robbery of a woman at NorthPark Mall. They then demanded property from Ali Elibanna before murdering him on November 16.

The family released a statement after the ruling.

“Dallas County will become less safe today after Judge Lela Mays decided to relax house arrest restrictions for a criminal facing aggravated robbery charges. Jacoby Tatum was involved in the murder of our father and three other armed robbery cases, but he will now be allowed to go to work and church alongside other Dallas residents. We are deeply dismayed and disturbed by this decision. We truly believe this individual should be behind bars right now given his role in multiple violent crimes in Dallas that happened less than a year ago and ended in the murder of our father. Public safety should be the primary concern, and we are truly worried for Dallas residents who could face what we had to face because of the release granted by the judge today.”

The decision is another in a long line of pro-criminal choices Dallas is making.

Earlier this year Judge Chika Aniyam chose to lower the bond of Julio Guerrero despite multiple acts of violence.

City of Dallas staff have also backed down from responding to homeless crisis after being confronted by antifa groups. These were later called out by activist Andy Ngô, but Dallas appears to be on a Crime Pays bandwagon.

No Monitoring For Elibanna Murderers

No Monitoring For Elibanna Murderers

No monitoring for Elibanna murderers is on Monday’s docket in the 283rd District Court. This comes after their bond was already lowered freeing them to repeat crimes.

On November 16, 2021, Ali Elbanna was murdered at the Costco Business Center in Dallas on Park Lane.

Mr. Elbanna was loading groceries into his car when four individuals, including Jacoby Tatum, approached him. They were in a stolen vehicle from an earlier crime.

No Monitoring For Elibanna Murderers

They demanded his belongings, and then shot and killed him.

The four individuals were arrested and charged with capital murder related to the killing along with multiple counts of aggravated robbery for offenses committed earlier the same day, including incidents at South Oak Cliff High School and NorthPark Mall.

Now, Tatum’s defense counsel seeks removal of his Electronic Leg Monitor (ELM). A hearing will take place Monday, August 22nd at 9:00AM on the sixth floor of the Frank Crowley Courthouse. The courthouse is located at 133 N. Riverfront Boulevard, Dallas, TX 75207.

No Monitoring For Elibanna Murderers

If Judge Lela Mays chooses no monitoring for the Elibanna murderers it would follow similar decisions by Democrat nominated judges to lower bonds for violent criminals.

It would also follow a pattern of selective prosecution by John Creuzot.

Four sources say District Attorney Creuzot has a political deal in place with Dominque Alexander and NGAN activists. Alexander who has been convicted of felony child charges does not attack Creuzot. In exchange, Creuzot ignores Alexander’s questionable activist work in South Dallas.

Creuzot faces Faith Johnson in his re-election campaign in November 2022.

The Elibanna family released the following statement:

“We are terrified for the people of Dallas, including for our family, which has already been irreparably harmed by this individual’s actions. Our father is dead, and one of the four individuals who helped kill him is out on the streets of Dallas right now. The lowering of the bonds to allow for these four murderers to be released before their trials is dangerous for everyone in our community. We hope the judge will decide to keep the leg monitor and reconsider the lowering of the bonds that allowed for this individual to be released.”

Ali Elbanna

Ali Elbanna, a naturalized American citizen born in Lebanon to Palestinian refugees, was a resident of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex for more than thirty years.

He was married to Stephanie Young Elbanna, a Fort Worth native, for thirty-three years, and together they had five children.

Mr. Elbanna was a smnall business owner in Arlington, Texas. He was an active member of the local community. He was sixty years old at the time of his passing.

Lancaster Police Department has not returned calls Sunday morning. No arrests have beem made. It appears Mr. Talib is free Sunday morning.

Shooting At Youth Football Game – Another Sign Of Violence In Dallas

One parent stated this is what happens at unsanctioned events. However, there have been numerous cases of bad behavior by adults in youth sports during sanctioned tournaments.

Talib has reportedly been arrested in Dallas in previous years.

The Texas Rangers youth baseball program continued to use a coach last season after multiple serious allegations against him.

Additionally, umpires are leaving by the dozens from local associations. Some referees and umpires state they have parents follow them to their car.

Andy Ngô On CNN

Andy Ngô – author of the New York Times best seller Unmasked – identified members of an antifa operation in Dallas.

Ngô, unmasked the antifa operatives, associated with Elm Fork John Brown Gun Club on his Twitter feed.

He did so hours after we published about the group disrupting homeless operations.

Ngô states that members of the Elm Fork John Brown Gun Club targeted a UNT student and a prolife prayer she led. He also links to a Human Events piece detailing the harrassment by members of antifa while at UNT.

He names Christopher Guillott as a leader of the Elm Fork John Brown Gun Club. Ngô states Guillot directed efforts against Kelly Neidert.

Andy Ngô Identified Antifa Members

In another report, an antifa member died carrying out a terror attack in 2019. This person was from the Washington state chapter.

Garrett Lee, made open threats on Twitter with no response from law enforcement. Lee is also an extremist member of antifa based in Dallas.

Potential For Homeless Violence Increases

Homeless Violence

The potential for homeless violence increases after a group from outside Dallas forced city staff including city marshal and homeless staff to surrender on a homeless sweep.

Reports say more than three dozen people showed up to stop the city’s efforts. City staff including the Office of Homeless Solutions and Marshals participated.

Homeless Violence

The group led by the Elm Fork John Brown Gun Club carried long rifles. They obstructed the orderly tasks of city government. This led to the negotiated surrender where city staff left without doing their job.

This follows Dallas Police surrender to agitators with firearms at Dealey Montessori last year.

Homeless Violence

Homeless Violence

Per one report the city will not enforce whether people continue living in the homeless encampment under Interstate 45.

Homeless Violence

The presence of the Elm Fork John Brown Gun Club reminds Dallas citizens of the George Floyd protests.

Homeless Violence

Dallas saw a number of outside groups come into the city to agitate for violence. It led to a police response that injured bystander civilians.

These groups seemed to be encouraged by city council efforts to defund the police led by council members Bazaldua, Blackmon, Narvaez, and others.

Several are concerned that the criminal problem of homelessness will continue as long as there is a protection racket. Some have theorized that the protection racket comes from local drug dealers using these camps as a buffer to encroach on new territory.

Homeless Violence Raising Money For Schools?

The group also appears to be raising money as an unregistered charity. It is unclear where this school supply money would go in the request above. Is it for a Dallas student or another student outside the area? Will it go to a college aged student?

There is no clear indication and beyond Instagram this appears to be an antifa style operation.
