New twist in Cincinnati street brawl as lawmakers say white man who started melee should be prosecuted
Lawmakers in Cincinnati are calling for a white man seen on video slapping a black man before a now viral brawl erupted to face prosecution. The violent melee that unfolded two weekends ago in the downtown area of the Democrat led city has so far led to the arrest of six individuals. On Monday night, Ohio State Rep Cecil Thomas led a discussion inside the New Prospect Baptist Church and raised concerns that the man had yet to be arrested. Thomas, who leads the city chapter of the National Action Network, said all of those who have been arrested are black. He said the black community wanted answers about why others involved have not been prosecuted. 'The method by which this situation has been handled raises serious questions as whether there bias involved in this investigation,' he said, according to WLWT. 'It also brings into question the lack of integrity and whether there is something else to hide.' A new angle of what happened prior to the brawl shows an unidentified black man being slapped by the unknown white man, which sparked the chaos. All six of those who have been arrested are facing charges of aggravated riot and felonious assault charges, which carries with it the potential of 29 years in prison. Pastor Leslie Jones also reportedly said : 'Our community is restless and they're watching. 'Since you don't think young people vote, old folks do. And they have told me they know how to vote, they know how to answer. 'If you don't prosecute this gentleman and we're not talking about we're demanding prosecution in the next 24 hours.' Cincinnati Mayor Aftab Pureval released a statement following the meeting saying he agreed with the frustration. Pureval said: 'I have been clear about my expectations that, in order to preserve both public safety and fairness, anyone involved in perpetrating the violence should be charged. 'Until all participants are held accountable, justice hasn't been fully served. And I'm grateful that community leaders and residents are continuing to come together to make their expectations clear.' He added that additional charging decisions would be made by officials 'as soon as possible'. Footage obtained by Fox News also depicts a White man using a racial slur towards the group in the moments before the brawl. It comes after all six who have been arrested were formally indicted by a grand jury, the Hamilton County Prosecutor's Office said. Patrick Rosemond, 38, Jermaine Matthews, 39, Montianez Merriweather, 34, DeKyra Vernon, 24, Dominique Kittle, 37, and Aisha Devaughn, 25, are all facing charges. A seventh suspect, 32-year-old Gregory Wright, was apprehended on Monday and is facing charges of aggravated riot and aggravated robbery. He pleaded not guilty. Police allege in their criminal complaint that Wright ripped a necklace off a man while he was being assaulted during the brawl. They said he then put the necklace into his pocket before proceeding to 'film the rest of the events', Fox19 reported. A woman, known only as Holly, was brutally injured during the assault with her attack also caught on camera. In a sit down interview last week, Holly claimed Mayor Pureval and Cincinnati Police Chief Teresa Theetge had ignored her. Holly also said that police 'acted nonchalant' when they arrived at the scene and did not call for backup or an ambulance. Patrick Rosemond, 38, left, was arrested in Georgia in connection to the violent attack. Aisha Devaughn, right, allegedly hit one of the victims, prosecutors said Jermaine Matthews, left, and Dominique Kittle are both facing charges in connection with the brawl 'They were less than helpful is all I can say. So, I wound up getting in my Uber when it showed up and went home and tried to sleep off the concussion,' Holly explained. 'They didn't even get a statement. No, the police were very, opposite of helpful.. They made me feel so uncomfortable. 'They don't even get my name. They don't even care enough to get my name', she added. She went on to defend her actions that night, noting that she was the only person who decided to jump in to help the man because it was 'the right thing to do.' 'There were 100 people there that night and I jumped in, I was the only one who jumped in, to try and save him because that was the right thing to do. 'And, yeah, unfortunately they attacked me as well for trying to do the right thing,' Holly added. Holly, who's described herself as a single working-class mother, said out of the large crowd of people, the only person who called 911 was another victim. 'So not one person decided to call 911 and then film these heinous crimes and attempted murder, because that is what it is no matter what they label it. 'It was attempted murder,' Holly said, adding that those who watched on should feel 'shame' for their actions Days after the video of the vicious fight went viral, Chief Theetge said the outrage surrounding it lacked 'context.' Chief Theetge also took aim at the media for only showing 'one version' of what occurred - without giving any more context about the fight herself. 'Social media and journalism and the role it plays in this incident, the posts that we have seen does not depict the entire incident,' she said.

Even liberal John Oliver is growing tired of Chuck Schumer's eyebrow-raising anti-Republican antics
Liberal late-night TV host John Oliver didn't hold back in his recent roast of a top elected leader in the Democrat party. Oliver called out New York Senator Chuck Schumer for his decades-long charade of pointing to two fake right-leaning voters numerous times over the course of his political career. The duo is allegedly a middle-class pair from Massapequa, New York, who have been fiscally concerned but socially moderate. 'Schumer first introduced the world to the Baileys in his 2007 book, Positively American, winning back the middle-class majority, one family at a time,' Oliver said. 'In it, he mentions the Baileys, an astonishing 265 times in 264 pages. He's apparently been talking about them for years before the book was published.' The host doubled down on his revelation that the Baileys are just figments of Schumer's imagination. 'They don't exist.' Oliver continued in his monologue. 'Seriously, he invented them,' the comedian stated, mocking the senator further before adding: 'That is a J.R.R. Tolkien-level of gratuitous backstory, and I don't say that lightly.' Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-NY, speaks during a press conference after weekly Senate caucus luncheons at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, DC on Tuesday, July 29, 2025 The show then cut to a sketch with two new characters, supposed to be the real-life version of Schumer's fictional Baileys. 'We're Republicans, Chuck. We're super Republican,' the actors claimed, they were revealed to have both voted for President Trump, Joe thrice, and Eileen twice. Oliver's producers then doubled down on their portrayal of grotesque Republican stereotypes. 'I think they're putting litter boxes in schools,' Joe says, before his wife Eileen responded: 'Every time a celebrity dies, I tweet, vaxxed.' The fictional duo then continued: 'I take Ivermectin, every day, out of spite,' rail against store clerks who 'don't say Merry Christmas, even in June,' and demand, 'Where's my straight pride parade?' At the end of the segment, the pair notes: 'Our own kids don't even speak to us, Chuck. You shouldn't either.' A representative for Schumer did not immediately reply to the Daily Mail's request for comment. Despite his formal position as Minority Leader of the United States Senate, Schumer isn't immensely popular, both among his own constituents and the general public. A Sienna College Poll released Tuesday found that only 39 percent of Schumer's constituents had a favorable view of the lawmaker. Forty-six percent of respondents had a negative view of the Senator. The top Senate Democrat ranked 26th out of 29 high-profile Democrats on the latest DailyMail+ Power List released Tuesday. Based on exclusive polling, the Mail's Power List captures public sentiment around likeability, trustworthiness, perceived bias, and knowledge among key figures. The data reveals who Americans like and trust and who they don't, and the verdict is as damning as it is surprising. The top five names on the list were all celebrities. Schumer's Senate colleague and Vermont Independent Bernie Sanders took the spot of the top elected official on the list at number six, with Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman coming seventh right behind Sanders. New Jersey Senator Cory Booker also appeared on the list ahead of Schumer, raking in ninth place. Last month, DailyMail+ launched the Power List by revealing the best-loved (and most loathed) morning-show hosts and news media stars. We also ranked the sports analysts who divide the opinion of millions of fans across the country and revealed the nation's most beloved NFL quarterback. Our standings of the leading figures in Trump's inner circle revealed who holds the most influence.
