Family Values Edition: Brian Blair in Jail

Former Hillsborough County commissioner and social conservative Brian Blair has been arrested on two counts of child abuse.

Blair choked his 17 year-old son and punched him in the face. Blair then proceeded to grab his younger son, punched him in the head and choked him. This happened around 4:00 AM. Police arrested Blair at 5:00 AM. Deputy Larry McKinnon said Blair got the facial bruises after his altercation with his children. That likely means Blair resisted arrest. Although, there is no battery on a LEO charge on Blair's arrest report.

Blair is currently being held without bail. This is common practice for Hillsborough County domestic violence cases.

The sad thing is I am not even surprised a so-called family values man like Blair would be arrested for child abuse. Blair has made racist statements, been publicly drunk, used homophobia against his gay opponent been under an ethics investigation. This is not a nice man.
