Teen Caught on Video in Black Mob Beating of White Student —- Acquitted

Screen Shot 2014-09-09 at 3.04.39 PMTuesday in court was supposed to be a pretty straight forward day for Alec Guessford: Let the family court commissioner watch, on video, as five of his black classmates taunt, harass and beat him on a school bus in April. Watch his classmate promise to never, ever do it again.

Make a victim’s statement. Then get on with his life as a Dover, Delaware junior high student.

Four of the assailants had already pled guilty to various charges of misdemeanor assault and conspiracy — including the person who took the video and posted it.

But it got complicated when the fifth assailant, Tracy Matthews, decided to take his chances with a trial before the commissioner. Matthews said no matter what it seemed like on the video — he’s the one with the hoodie — he was not beating anyone. He was just looking for his headphones. The four assailants testified on behalf of their friend/accomplice.

Before the trial, members of the Guessford family sat in the same witness room as the four people who pled guilty to beating their son. “They were laughing and taunting us,” said Dale Guessford, Alec’s dad. “Trying to intimidate us. Finally the court officials moved us into another room.”

The four assailants were on better behavior in court. Good enough to persuade Commissioner Angela Fowler to let their friend go free with a finding of not guilty.  Fowler, a former public defender and “child advocate” for State Attorney General Beau Biden, said she could not see the accused person actually assault Alec.

“Guess she doesn’t have a slow motion switch on whatever she uses to watch videos,” Guessford said. “But even without it, it is easy to see Matthews participating in the assault. And easy to see other children watch him do it. Though they were never called as witnesses.”

You can see the beating below, in slow motion:

After the beating, the school was reluctant to take action. “They tried to tell me Alex provoked the assault,” said Guessford. “But this was the second time it had happened. And it was five on one.”

When the video came out, that seemed to settle the questions of who was taunting whom, who was harassing whom, and who was beating on whom.

The 30-second video went viral shortly after the beating. Soon after Alec’s father posted it on his Facebook page, the video received 125,000 shares. After I posted it on YouTube, the video received 60,000 views in the first few hours before YouTube removed it, saying the film violated its terms of service that prohibit anyone from glorifying racial violence.

When this intrepid correspondent pointed out that the video was exposing racial violence, not glorifying it, YouTube put it back up — several weeks later.

But even a video record of the assault was not enough to convince commissioner Fowler. “Whatever this was, it can hardly be called a trial,” Dale Guessford said. “The very first question the defense lawyer asked my son was not even a real question. He said ‘you really don’t like black people very much do you, Alex?’”

The judge ruled the question out of order.  A better question might have been addressed to the judge: ‘Who are you going to believe, my clients and his thuggish friends, or that lying videotape?’

Of the 20 or so students on the bus, only the friends of the Matthews were called to testify. The same one who had already pleaded guilty. And the prosecutor did not ask Alex any questions.

“Even without slow motion, you can see Tracy Matthews lean over and punch Alec,” Guessford said.  “Lots of people saw it without slow motion.”

After about an hour, the judge heard what she needed to hear and issued the not guilty ruling.

“What a message,” said Dale Guessford. “Telling that child it is OK to beat another child. Telling my son it is OK to try to portray him as a bad person because he was the victim of a racial assault and he had the nerve not to like it.”

And one last thing, said Guessford: “There were no headphones.”

    No surprise here. The double standard is firmly in place. I’m rather surprised Alex got as much justice as he has. Without the video, Youtube, and Facebook, Alex probably would have wound up being the guilty party for crime or crimes unknown or invented for the occasion.

    As for Youtube not glorifying violence: Projection. Obviously Youtube took the video down to avoid becoming the target of the violence they promote.

    Disgusting what is happening in our society, especially the ignoring of black on white assaults.by the bleeding heart justices in this country. Assaults by blacks on whites are deemed okay and behavior is ignored, even glorified in some circles. I hope Commissioner Fowler will, in her lifetime, get to experience what Alec Guessford has had to and I hope she is shown the same JUSTICE that she deems so appropriate.

  • marlene

    Time to form a NAAWP. Neither Holder nor obama nor the NAACP weighed in on this one. guess the fix was in. i hope they took this poor white kid out of this rotten violent black racist school. i also hope a fund is started to support an appeal. any judge worth his/her merit would have seen the evidence for what it is. a complete travesty of justice by an ignorant and corrupt court commissioner and a dangerous and slippery path for all white student victims of hate-filled black violence.

  • tagalog

    I noticed that it was typical of the black-on-white assaults that I’ve heard of and seen an occasional video, that the attack on the white kid started with several blows from behind and didn’t move to his front until there were several black attackers congregated to attack him. Two, three, or four on one; that seems to be the ordinary drill in black-on-white violence. I guess they have to pump themselves up by ganging up on people. A one-on-one moment would be too risky, I suppose.

    I hope more White’s are finally beginning to see how the justice system is one-sided after all. Eric Holder himself announced a few yrs ago that White’s are not to be protected under hate-crime legislation. There’s a rampant flood of attacks against us that the law and media ignore. It’s time to start speaking up and standing up for ourselves. Hate is hate and needs to be addressed!

    • Race_Dissident

      One good thing–with Youtube, smart phones and social media, whites are finally learning the truth about blacks. And it logically undermines the Leftist narrative of tolerance and diversity. The only problem is how to convince whites to accept the truth that their own lying eyes presents to them.

    • Bill-D

    This was a set up by the prosecutor and judge to get these thugs free, I suppose next time one of these little bastards will kill some one then the judge will seal his juvenile record so no one can see this.

  • DontMessWithAmerica

    I don’t know what the percentage is, but America now has a substantial number of civilized, responsible, honest and decent black citizens. Rather than allow things to move forward to an inevitable race war – and the outcome of such can be predictable when you have 14% against 86% of the population – it may be time for
    responsible blacks (which automatically eliminates racists such as Obama and
    Holder) to create a new type of KKK to deal with the thugs among blacks.
    It needs to be done by responsible black leaders (they’ll have to surface
    from somewhere because they’re not on the screen now) and it is in their own
    interest as much as in the interest of the rest of the population.

    • Race_Dissident

      Dream on.

    • Crassus

      It happened a few times in the old days. I know of one instance in Kentucky where a gang of outlaw blacks were preying on the decent law-abiding blacks in the area. The white authorities refused to do anything since it was black on black crime so the decent blacks banded together and tracked down the band of outlaw blacks. They lynched them all.

  • MrUniteUs1

    Anyone notice the tall black student that stopped the beating? He wearing a white shirt with a collar.
    Looks like Tracey was reaching for something at 2:02 and 2:25 in the video.
    Can’t tell if Tracey punched or was attempting to grab something. We can’t see his hand. He immediately sat down afterwards. Seems to me if he wanted to do some harm he would have done more.

    • Guest

      OMG, Tracy might have been punching back? What an oppressive white guy!

      • MrUniteUs1

        Tracy said he was reaching for head phones. You the first one that said he was punching back. Did you notice the tall black student that stopped the beating? He was wearing a white shirt with a collar.

        • tagalog

          Nope, didn’t see a black guy with a white shirt with a collar stopping the attack. I DID see a black guy in a white T-shirt taking a poke or two at the white kid from behind, though, along with two or three others.

          • MrUniteUs1

            Take a look a the end of the video. He approaches from the front of the bus, lays his hands on the ones punching and they stop.

          • tagalog

            But the ones punching the white kid are behind him.

    • tagalog

      Yes; by what right did the NYPD cops put him in a chokehold when he, another big brute of a guy, was shrugging off the police attempts to take him into custody? Those murderous oppressor Cossacks!

      • MrUniteUs1

        No right at all. Chokehold illegal. Did you hear police tell him why he was being taken into custody. I didn’t. Shrugging??? What’s that? Mr. Garner kept his hands open the whole time. He never attempted to grab or punch the police.

        • tagalog

          “Shrugging” is the movements the black giant was making as he pushed away the hands of the policemen who were trying to take him into custody before the chokehold was applied, while he hollered that he had just broken up a fight and done nothing wrong, things perpetrators often say when they don’t want to be arrested. It’s often referred to as “shrugging off” attempts at physical contact.

          • MrUniteUs1

            Shrugging refers to an up and down shoulder movement involving the trapezius muscles. At one point in the video did you see him pushing away the hands of the police. Being a “big black giant” and a “big brute of guy”, it’s must have been a big push right? Wrong. The officer in front of him pushed up on Garner’s forearms. Garner complied. He raised his arms up with his palms open. He made no attempt to resist. The other officer then jumped him from behind and put a chokehold. Once he was on the ground another mashed his head into the concrete.
            He was murdered.

          • tagalog

            Yes — I, too, I am aware of that violent and maleficent act of death. We as a society have tolerated shrugging far too long. Of course this guy deserved to die. He shrugged.

          • tagalog

            Nobody intended for the guy to die. They intended to restrain him from resisting arrest. His death is attributable to an ailment that no one but the resister knew he suffered from.

          • objectivefactsmatter

            OK, but you have to admit that the world would be darn near perfect if people stopped resisting the communist…I mean the DP agenda.

        • objectivefactsmatter

          We should create some kind of process to remedy these injustices.

    • Race_Dissident

      Statistically, black cops are more likely than white cops to use force–including gunfire–against black suspects.

      • MrUniteUs1

        Any comments on what happened to Mr. Garner.

        • tagalog

          Sadly, he failed to tell the cops he was asthmatic, and when he engaged in resisting their attempts to take him into custody, he was taking on a significant risk of potential harm to himself. Sadly for him, the potential became real.

          • MrUniteUs1

            What did he do to resist? When should he have said asthmatic, before or during the chokehold?

          • tagalog

            I don’t know when he should have told them. Probably before he started shrugging them off as they attempted to take him into custody.

      • Crassus

        I remember the old Richard Pryor comedy routine about being arrested by a black cop. Rich always said a black cop would beat a brother harder than a white one would. “You ain’t f’ing with my pension, boy.”

    • Race_Dissident

      Police brutality is not the issue. Court-enabled savagery by black mobs against innocent whites is. Don’t try to change the subject.

      • MrUniteUs1

        Police brutality is huge issue. But as with any crime same race crime doesn’t get the attention. You can’t get a woody discussing same race crime, so you don’t care. A white man just killed his 5 children. You don’t care. Black and white criminals are arrested everyday. So your court enabled comment is silly.
        What do you think about the Central Park 5 wrongly arrested and convicted or the ex Navy Seal that lied and and said he was attacked by a Black Mob.

        • Race_Dissident

          Well, you’re partly right. The only crime that gains any attention is that rarest of all species, white-on-black. And as often as not, these crimes are manufactured by the AWR (anti-white racist) media. If whites actually committed the sorts of atrocities against blacks that blacks commit against whites and in the numbers that blacks commit them, one of two things would happen. One, the US military would be called out to stop the slaughter. Two, blacks would be exterminated in a race war. I make this point less to suggest that there should be a race war than to point out the overabundance of black-on-white crime and the media’s disgusting efforts to hush it up.

          PS–The so-called “Central Park 5″ were guilty as sin and the fact that they are now free and wealthy is an indictment of the “judicial system.”

          PPS–Blacks are past masters of hoaxing “hate crimes,” so I wouldn’t bring up that subject if I were you.

          Not conflating is not the same as lack of concern about other subjects. Who are you to say that the guy over there is concerned about this but not that…as evidenced by his concern about this?

          What’s the connection?

          • objectivefactsmatter

            The connection is that most of these criminals actually believe that they are victims of oppression as per communist teachings. That does not of course excuse their behavior but it does give partial explanations for their attitudes and values.

            POTUS still promotes these mendacious and destructive victim narratives.

    socialists targeted education in the early 1900′s;
    they’ve been working at it a long time,have been wildly successful at gaining control of it,and now we’re seeing the effects of that,all across our society.
    Legislators,JUDGES,doctors,scientists,media,teachers,etc,all a product of a socialist education system. All indoctrinated in socialism,and applying it in their everyday lives.
    Never forget that the socialists have a dominance at nearly every university,and at most every public grade school.
    socialist indoctrination begins at an early age and continues throughout high school and college.
    THAT is what is really hurting America,and I’m not so sure we can overcome it,it may already be too late. it took a long time for the commies to become entrenched in education,and it will take a long time to weed them out,if it can be done at all.

  • edgineer

    I have watched this exact same BS since 1972, when I held a tourniquet on a 16 year old store stock boy who had been shot in the leg by black robbers for no reason. He lost the leg. We have been giving blacks a pass on everything since the riots in 1967. I cannot believe how foolish whites are in this country.

    • Richard Gearon

      No, my friend, a respectful correction is in order, I believe. Numerous areas of this country experienced widespread looting and arson in 1967, but the ORIGINAL race-riot of MODERN times, was none other than Watts, 1965, and I was THERE, heavily armed, it should go without saying. Long story short: Watts was the FIRST TIME, in the entire history of this country, and England, for centuries before that, that the order to SHOOT LOOTERS ON SIGHT, was NOT given. If it had been given, as I fervently believe it should have, Watts would have been over in MINUTES, and Detroit, inter alia, would not have burned to the ground. If it was good enough for the Brits for several hundred years, before we started doing it about 300 years ago, then it’s good enough for me; SHOOT LOOTERS ON SIGHT. End of problem, folks.

      • edgineer

        I never said these were the original riots. I said they were the riots that led to blacks being given special status in this country. Although the 1968 riots in Chicago, when Mayor Daley issued a shoot on sight order may be closer to that happening.

        • Richard Gearon

          The people who looted and burned in Watts were given “special status,” in ’65, because they weren’t SHOT ON SIGHT. I seriously doubt that Daley gave that order, in ’68, or there would have been HUNDREDS of dead hippies, and other protesters, littering the streets of Chi Town, and those people were not looters.
