Ex-Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale knocked to the ground to end standoff, body camera footage shows.
FORT LAUDERDALE Bradley Parscale, former campaign manager to president Donald Trump, was in the middle of an armed standoff with police at his Fort Lauderdale home when unexpected help arrived: Officer Christopher Wilson, a personal friend.
Fort Lauderdale police on Monday released records detailing how Sundays standoff unfolded at Parscales home, starting with his wifes call for help and ending with officers detaining Parscale for psychiatric evaluation. Officers recovered 10 firearms from his home, including several pistols, a shotgun and rifle, and saw that Parscales wife had bruises on her arm and face.
Bradley Parscales standoff with police officers happened Sunday afternoon in the 2300 block of DeSoto Drive, where Parscale, 44, lives with his wife, Candice Parscale.
The confrontation with officers started after an argument between the couple. Candice Parscale says her husband chambered a round into a pistol during a heated exchange between the two.
...
Officer Timothy Skaggs was the first to arrive at the neighbors house, records show. He witnessed bruising on Candice Parscales arm and face. She told him that the injuries had come from Bradley Parscale, though she said shed gotten them earlier that week.

(7,754 posts)Uda and Kusay) were funneling money to themselves and other friends and family. Now it's going to be investigated and it sounds like they are going to put it all on him. Would tend to create a little tension in the home. For all we know, his wife may have been involved too. At any rate, Parscale it terrified.
They are turning on each other. It's gonna fall apart.

(95,244 posts)Every time someone is tazed to death or shot dead, the exoneration rests on stating the action was 'consistent with the officer's training'. I look forward to the disciplinary action against these officers for failing to follow the procedures they were trained to employ.

This woman needs help as much as he does.

(5,810 posts)We still need to remember that this was a tragedy that was narrowly averted. The outcome could have been tragic for several lives. As it is, it is still the destruction of a family played out on a public stage due to the mans notoriety. This is another example of everything in tRumps orbit frequently having a bad outcome either for the individual or society in general.
As much as it pains me to say it, this is sad and unenviable. These people had wealth and privilege and still ended up in such a mess. Money buys a lot but it wont buy happiness, sanity or security. The lesson here is that no one is immune to personal tragedy.
tRumps day is coming for a huge downfall. It may be underway right this minute. Expect the next few days to be a roller coaster ride of revelations.

(32,620 posts)Also Chump's sons (and maybe daughter) were in on the theft/fraud, and now Brad Parscale will be blamed for everything. His "wealth" is stolen goods including the luxury yacht that was registered in his wife's name. So yeah, she's in on it too.
Sorry if I don't have a lot of sympathy for these awful people.
I'm sympathetic for the families of Breonna Taylor, Jacob Blake, George Floyd, and all the others who have been cut down in their prime by unnecessary and unlawful police violence. It's because of people like Brad Parscale and other evil right-wingers that we've arrived in this year of awful tragedies.

(5,810 posts)But I know anyone at the edge of suicide is to be pitied, even if his own bad decisions landed him in the place he is now. This is man who somehow managed to propel himself to a very high standard of living. He, of course, used some terrible means to do it when he could have used his intelligence to do things honestly. Hence, the loathing I feel for so many under tRumps umbrella of deceit and dishonesty.
I think as this whole thing unravels we will find a lot of people with mental disorders and personality issues that make them vulnerable starting right at the top with tRump. They often seem to choose the deviant path and get away with that for many years. tRumps day of recking may be closing in on him, and, it appears, others as well.
If 2020 wasnt already crazy enough, now we get this icing on the sh*t show weve all been living.

(25,224 posts)An ad in May from the anti-Trump Lincoln Project highlighted Parscales $2.4 million waterfront house in fort Lauderdale, two Florida condos worth almost $1 million each. He even has very own yacht, a gorgeous Ferrari, a sleek Range Rover. The Lincoln Project bought ad time on Fox News in Washington, D.C., to ensure Trump would see the spot and it would get under his skin.
So was it the Tulsa rally or the Lincoln Project ad?
