A New Jersey man was sentenced Thursday to 17 years in prison for a brutal attack involving a dog on a New York City pizzeria manager.
...
The shocking incident took place in August, 2024 at Roma Pizza on Fifth Avenue between 19th and 20th Streets in the Flatiron District.

Tyshaun Watson, 36, of Secaucus, was sentenced to 17 years in prison and five years of supervised release as part of a plea deal. He was initially charged with attempted murder and four counts of assault, but agreed to plead guilty to two counts of assault in the first degree, a felony.

And they are ALWAYS democrats, always!
Seems the family ought to make the creep fear the end of those 17 years; “Will be waiting, ya bastad!”
Tyshaun Watson. Named after one of our founding fathers?
I think he played college ball with this guy:

If another letter from that school goes to that kid's house, into the oven you'll go.
These insane incidents happen far too often, where a black thug is challenge on something and he goes berserk with violence.
Scott Adams was correct. Stay away from them.
It’s the grab-bag-o’-syllables name game.
I’m glad to see a prison-time sentence. Too often is a slap on the wrist and 10 days of community service. I’d like to see jail time for protestors who attack law enforcement personnel, with a minimum of $100,000 bail while awaiting trial.
