Ohio Dickhead William Bailey Needs an Ass-Kicking: Arrested for Taunting Disabled Girl at Bus Stop

Sinister is pissed. I hope you will be to.

This all comes after reading the story about the ultimate douchebag named William Bailey, a 43-year-old man in Ohio.

The story involves little Hope Holcomb-Knight, a 10-year-old girl with cerebral palsey. Unfortunately, kids will be kids and she has had to face some harassment on the school bus about the way she walks.

Now, back to douchebag William Bailey, who only made matters worse by imitating the way the girl walks at the bus stop. Like father like son, even Bailey’s son joined in on the humiliation.

If there is any good news, it involves the fact that police stepped-in and took action. An investigation was launched in September of this year after Bailey was caught on video taunting the girl at a bus stop.

The video, which went viral on YouTube, clearly shows Bailey and son dragging their legs behind them while walking to their car at the bus stop.

The incident was recorded on a cell phone camera by a family member who was waiting inside her car at the bus stop.

Mike Knight, the girl’s father said it best.

"It makes me sick too, to think that a grown man would tease a 10-year-old disabled girl that has never done a thing to any of them for no reason. Now she doesn't want to get on the bus and go to school."

The taunting was reportedly just one of several incidents of harassment that have occurred between the two families over the past two years.

Bailey, who lives next door to the Knight family, was arrested and charged with aggravated menacing and disorderly conduct.

At trial, Bailey reportedly pleaded 'no contest' to the charges and was sentence to 29 days in jail.

The cell phone video can be viewed below.

Ohio Teachers Kelly Chaffins and Christy Wilt Caught Bullying Special Needs Child

Miami Trace Middle School teachers Christy Wilt, 30, and Kelly Chaffins, 46, are hopefully, learning what it feels like to face harsh words.

This disturbing and downright infuriating story began when the teachers were caught on tape bullying a 14-year-old special needs student.

A couple in Ohio, raising a 14-year-old mentally disabled girl, received reports from their daughter that she was being bullied by Wilt and Chaffins. The couple contacted school administrators hoping to resolve the conflict.

However, according to the girl's parents, Miami Trace Superintendent Dan Roberts criticized the girl's parents by email, stating that there was "absolutely no truth" to the allegations and that their complaints were "bordering on slander and harassment."

School administrators insisted repeatedly that the girl was "lying" and subsequently dismissed their concerns.

Following the lack of action by school officials, the girl's parents sent their daughter to school with a small tape recorder. Over the next four days, the tape recorder captured deeply disturbing evidence of the girl’s claims. And now, the content on the tape has been released to the public.

First, let’s look at teacher Kelly Chaffins:

In the recordings, Chaffins allegedly asked the teen why she did not know the answer to a question. When the girl answered that she didn't know why, Chaffins allegedly responded "Are you kidding me? Are you that dumb? You are that dumb? Oh my God, you are such a liar. No wonder you don't have any friends. No wonder nobody likes you."

In another instance Chaffins allegedly asked the student "Don't you want to do something about that belly?" When the girl responded "Yes", Chaffins reportedly responded with "Well, evidently you don't because you don't do anything at home.... you sit at home and watch TV."


On another occasion after Chaffins learned that the girl's parents have contacted school administrators, Chaffins told the student "They are ridiculous... well you know what? They are liars raising a liar."

Christy Wilt, at about that time, decided to chime in:

"They are manipulators." (Talking about the girl’s parents)


The abuse continues. On yet another occasion, the teachers forced the teen to run on a treadmill for 15 minutes after getting a question wrong. Chaffins is reportedly heard on the tape yelling at the teen while she runs.

The school responded to the treadmill issue by stating the treadmill was placed into the classroom to help students "refocus" rather than punish them.

Confronted by a local reporter, Superintendent Dan Roberts insisted "When we found audio proof, we acted immediately." The outrage continues, however, because one of the accused teachers was allowed to keep her job.

Chaffins, who had worked for the district since 2008, was asked to resign once her comments became public.

Wilt, however, was placed on probation and will be required to attend an 8 hour class on child abuse and bullying. And if Sinister has anything to say about it, I would also require her to attend a treadmill class of her own. I mean…just sayin.'

You can follow the outrage on Facebook, yes, there is already a page:
