Craig Wilson has barely survived a beating, shooting and cross burning — but Mississippi's hate crime law offers him no protection.

"That's the way I read the law," said Smith County Sheriff Charlie Crumpton. "I told my assistant district attorney that the law is very clear that the victim has to be a different race in order for it to be a hate crime."

Wilson is white and so is his alleged assailant, Jeff Daniels, 37, who remained in jail Monday on a $20,000 bond for aggravated assault.

Wilson was upgraded from critical to fair condition at the University of Mississippi Medical Center on Tuesday.

His family has said the attack took place last Friday because Wilson, a relative of Daniels', brought over his mixed-race grandchildren.

[...]

"They were tussling," he said. "There was an altercation and a gun involved, and he (Wilson) was shot in the lower abdomen."

The sheriff acknowledged the family is saying the motive was because of the mixed-race grandchildren.

His office is continuing to investigate the matter, he said. "We're still taking statements."

The cross burning took place outside Wilson's home a few weeks earlier, he said.

[....]

Under Mississippi law, the penalties can be imposed "if the felony or misdemeanor was committed because of the actual or perceived race, color, ancestry, ethnicity, religion, national origin or gender of the victim."

The sheriff said of the Wilson case, "if there's a hate crime there, we can't see it."

He acknowledged that there could be a prosecution under the federal Hate Crimes Prevention Act.

[....]

State Sen. David Jordan, D-Greenwood, said lawmakers need to look at the state's hate crime law to possibly tweak it.

The race of the victim shouldn't matter because "what happened is obviously a hate crime," said Jordan, whose home was shot into three years ago. "It needs to be looked at, given the tense situation in the country right now."

A burning cross, a Smith county man beaten and shot by a family member, and in critical condition. We are told this is much more than a family feud, and outraged family members are calling it a "hate crime." This is a WLBT news exclusive.

[....]

The family tells us his stepson, with his son, came to Wilson's property screaming racist remarks at the family. The stepson, Jeff Daniels, and Craig Wilson allegedly got into a heated argument over his grandchildren. The family claims they threatened him, then beat him before shooting Wilson in the stomach.

[...]

"Yes they called him some severe names and then they told him to leave and they chased him off his porch around his house and beat him with brass knuckles and shot him with his own gun," said Julie Wilson, the victim's sister.

[....]

"It's just really hard to deal with right now," said Runnels. Runnels is Wilson's daughter. She is white. The father of the children is black. He declined to go on camera and talk with us.

According to the family, the threats to keep the mixed race grandchildren away have been ongoing, and two weeks ago the family found a cross burning in their yard.

"He told everybody that he would die for his children and to him the grandchildren are like his and he almost paid the price this weekend," said Wilson.

[....]

"We are because there was a cross burning previously, two weeks ago that police were called to but there was no incident report filed with Smith county and we still have the cross," added Wilson.

[....]

The Sheriff says this is not a "hate crime" under state law. The investigation is ongoing.

For all things good and holy, change the fucking wording of the law. That assclown is skating on a technicality that's getting him away from receiving a rightful and just sentence enhancement because the legislators used stupid-ese when they wrote the law!
 
That Sheriff sounds proud as hell this case doesn't qualify under State Law. Jackass. I hope it qualifies for Fed. sanctions, and the Fee-Bees run right over his stupid ass. Definitely need to make their "Hate Crime" law inclusive. As unfortunate as it is, maybe this'll be the catalyst. The ignorant can be taught; stupidity is an informed decision, and the shooter's looking pretty damned stupid right about now.

That's such bull, this guy is an idiot. If I beat another white person strictly because they are gay, that's a hate crime. If I beat a white person strictly because they are Muslim than its a hate crime...Wtf are they even talking about?
 
With idiots like this stepson up there running around defending the white race can you blame her for sleeping outside her race?

I meant defending more along the KKK keep the gene pool clean no miscegenation bullshit. It's clear he would fit right in with those chaps seeing as he was willing to fight for his beliefs. They'd lap that shit up I'm sure.

Ugh, they can have him, because us white folk don't claim them either. I can't stand hate for no good reason, for something people have no control over, except pedos, we should all hate them for always not matter what.

OKAY...WHEN did the LAW change to where the SHERIFF is telling the prosecutor how to interpret the law??!!! Is the prosecutor his son or worse yet son in law?? (I say worse yet because in law means he would have chosen that family!)

This is mind boggling as in most places the cops take the evidence to the D.A. and the D.A. is responsible to look up the laws and determine whether a crime was committed and which one(s)!

ETA: Can anyone locate the actual law he is citing and if it truly says that or is that his interpretation??
Hate is not just about color, ethnicity, sexuality it is about malicious intent based on the offending person's own lack of empathy for someone who doesn't fall into their crowd/beliefs/actions.

Hate crime laws in general make me nuts, I don't think we should have them at all, but since we do why not use it seeing as this is the most appropriate case I have heard of lately for it to be used in.

They are illogical. A hate crime can be due to gender as well, sooo, why aren't rapists charged for hate crimes? They rape one sex, usually women, and often it is due to some wacky deep-seeded anger toward women, "Mommy issues" or some other bull shit.

But they aren't used like that, they are used for? I don't really know.
 
You'll all be as astounded as I was to learn Mr. Daniels has a history of acting like a giant dick:

We have learned this is not the attacker's first run-in with the law. According to the Rankin county sheriff, Jeffrey Daniels was arrested January 17, 2014. The Smith County man was charged with 2 counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor. [...]
According to Sheriff Bryan Bailey, Daniels' son had a dispute with other teens. The father encouraged his son to fight and parents filed charges against Daniels.
[...]

The Smith County sheriff also confirms Daniels has been arrested for assault 2 or three times before.

Well, this makes the entire state of Mississippi look like a bunch of backwoods backwards idiots.
I wanna see where it says that hate crime can only be between people of different races. That doesn't make any sense at all. Races in this country are not as simple as black and white! If I had a black great great great grandfather then I'd be considered mixed race right? We're all mixed race in one form or another!
 
Okay, was so outraged by the article I had to start clickin then get back to everyones comments after I write [I don't want to forget anything that is twirlin around my gray matter right now]: first ofgf bullshit, since when is a sheriff telling a DA what a law is and isn't, b. wtf? wording can't be that bad to disregard intent and if someone is trying to use that as an excuse it's time to petition the governor to over ride the stupidity or the wording into a legitimate law [once again I think of the fkin fed snuff law and how it was bastardized] c. i hate to say this but was that intentional to make the law screwy when forced to create it so it would be pretty much worthless??? I have noticed across the country repeatedly that crimes that should have been blantantly charged as hate crimes weren't and cops and DAs don't seem to like to use them unless it is convienient
 
Did any of you stop to think that the Sheriff merely did his homework in order to help the DA secure a conviction? If he doesn't do his end of things right, the DA would have thrown it all out anyhow.
It's not his fault that the Mississippi legislators didn't craft the law properly.
The Sheriff's Department already had these idiots on their radar, and I'm fairly sure they would have wanted to nail their collective carcasses to the wall.

I think there is a legitimacy for hate crimes and apparently they need to be defined in a manner for two year olds to get used at all. I think what your thinkin of should be nutto crimes that we need to get special circumstance charges for, seriously, the freaks that have mummy issues and victimize women serially would go into that catagory. Having seen seriously racial crimes and issues before [and I mean in places like California too] there does need to be special charges and it shouldn't matter on difference of race so much as outlook: KKKers, Neos have murdered white people that apposed them etc and so on

Right? When I read that I thought the same thing, "my" ADA? Since when did a Sheriff, who in a lot of places doesn't even have to have so much as a single course in Criminal Justice, let alone a degree, trump a lawyer?? He is one bloated, self-deluded, posturing peacock. If I were an Atty. in the DA's office, I'd call him to task right quick.

Even if you're a racist asshole how can you be racist to little kids? Little kids are innocent. Period. Good job for standing up for the babies gramps, sorry you had to get beat for it.
