ATLANTA (Reuters) - An Idaho man accused of slapping a child and using a racial slur on an airplane pleaded not guilty to federal assault charges in Atlanta on Wednesday, his lawyer said.

Joe Rickey Hundley of Hayden, Idaho, is accused of striking a 19-month-old boy in the face on board a Delta Air Lines flight on February 8, according to documents filed in U.S. District Court in Atlanta.

The boy's mother, who was seated with her son, said in interviews that the child was crying as the plane from Minneapolis descended into Atlanta.

An attorney for Hundley, 60, said he used a racial slur when the child started crying because of ear pressure, but she denied that Hundley struck the boy.

The baby is black and his adoptive mother, Jessica Bennett of Minneapolis, is white. Hundley also is white.

[FORD]

60 year old white man from Hayden Lake Idaho.....

[ELVIS]

How is it racism ??

[jhale667]

How is it NOT, Mensa?

How is it racism ??

Reading comprehension issue?

" An Idaho man accused of slapping a child and using a racial slur "





Idiot.

[FORD]

How is it racism ??

Well, first, the bastard is from Hayden Lake. That's the home of the Aryan Nations white supremacist cult, as is most of northern Idaho, to a lesser extent.

Second, he used a racial slur. We can probably guess which one.

Third, he hit a fucking baby. Even if he's not a neo nazi klanfuck, that alone makes him worthy of death.

I agree, touching someone's child is a crime, but the racism is gonna have to have some proof...

The slur in context of hitting the kid is the proof. What more do you need, a fucking psyche evaluation, FFS?

[ELVIS]

Do you think racial slurs should have some sort of federal penalty ??

No, but punching babies on an airplane? Maybe.

[FORD]

death?

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of shitbags who hit kids, in general.

Even less so when they do so out of pure hatred.

[FORD]

Hate crimes are a reality.

Assaulting a child is a crime in and of itself, but the question is, was the prick motivated to hit the child because the baby was Black?

If so, that makes his hatred responsible for the crime.

If this douche goes around hitting white babies too, well then he's still one hateful son of a bitch, but at least it's not hate specifically based on the melanin content in somebody's skin.

Last time I flew into Boston this woman - the mother - had these two kids, one about 6 and the other maybe 9. These two little shits raised hell nearly the entire flight. I didn't want to hit them though. I wanted to freaking strangle the mother. When we were about to disembark she's back there telling these hellions "I think you owe an apology to these people" and I said "no, YOU owe us an apology!" Of course, this is completely different than a baby crying. Babies cry - it's kinda what they do.

What the man did was wrong but here's the whole story. He cracked because he was going to decide whether to take his son off of life support. His son died the next day. The media is making it sound like he was some jackbooted nazi that liked to slap black babies for the fun of it. They of course stir up shit and create more drama. The people who currently own the media companies want to cause race tensions so they can politically play people off of each other.

ATLANTA — An Idaho man accused of slapping a child and using a racial slur on an airplane pleaded not guilty to federal assault charges in Atlanta on Wednesday, his lawyer said.

Joe Rickey Hundley of Hayden, Idaho, is accused of striking a 19-month-old boy in the face on board a Delta Air Lines flight on Feb. 8, according to documents filed in U.S. District Court in Atlanta.

The boy's mother, who was seated with her son, said in interviews that the child was crying as the plane from Minneapolis descended into Atlanta.

An attorney for Hundley, 60, said he used a racial slur when the child started crying because of ear pressure, but she denied that Hundley struck the boy.

The baby is black and his adoptive mother, Jessica Bennett of Minneapolis, is white. Hundley also is white.

In a statement on Wednesday, Hundley's lawyer said he had been traveling to Atlanta to decide whether to remove his son from life support. Twenty-four hours before the flight, Hundley was told his son had overdosed on insulin and was "in a coma for life," attorney Marcia Shein said.

"On the flight, he was in distress, upset and grieving," Shein said.

In media interviews, the child's mother has said Hundley was belligerent and seemed intoxicated during the flight.

Hundley was fired from his executive position at AGC Aerospace & Defense after the alleged slapping incident, his attorney said. The Oklahoma City-based military technology company issued a statement describing the executive's behavior as "offensive and disturbing."

Hundley's son, whose age was not given, died the day after the flight, Shein said.

Hundley "has paid a terrible price for his hurtful words," the lawyer said.
