Reports: Taconic Crash Driver Was Regular Drinker, Pot Smoker
The NYPD doesn't like hate crimes either, as DJ Star has been arrested today for "suspicion of endangering the welfare of a minor" and started a hate crime investigation. Well, that's what you get for saying you'd ejaculate and pee on the 4 year old daughter of your rival, call her "half a lo mein eater," and call her mom a "slanty eye whore wife." This most likely pleases the target of some of the vitriol, Gia Casey, wife of DJ Star's rival DJ Envy; Casey held a press conference and spoke to NY1 saying that DJ Star needed to be behind bars: "He needs to be held 100 percent accountable."
For his part, DJ Star, or Troi Torain, has retained celebrity defense attorney Benjamin Brafman who says that while DJ Star's remarks were "unsuitable and inappropriate," the Caseys have nothing to fear - oh, and DJ Envy made threats against DJ Star. Well, if the stupid argument could have stayed between the two posturing DJs, that would be fine, but the problem is that a poor child was dragged into it. It should be interesting what'll happen after this - will shock jocks learn their lesson or will they just pipe down for a spell?

Awesome!
who else can get involved?
FBI?
FCC?
NSA?
hmmm...
Doubt he'll learn his lesson. Maybe he figured he'd be due for a Vacation?
transcript swiped from another messageboard of the convo that got him arrested:
Star: Somebody holla at me and tell me about his whore wife and his kid. 866-678-8270. ... Somebody get at me about his whore. His whore wife and his kid, this little ugly ass kid, I hear. Where does this kid go to school? I got five hundred bucks for that information. Somebody email me or gimme a call. Just tell me where his kid goes to school. Let's see who's really gully on the microphone. Five hundred dollars, in my pocket, right now. I need to know the school, this faggot ass *****, DJ's kid goes to school. Star: I've got information on DJ Benji, aka… what's his name again? Envy. I've got information on his gook. His baby's mother.
BucWild: A gook?
Star: Hemp University, uh, cats used to run trains on her. Green BMW. I'll get to all this in a few minutes.
Star: OH! And I got the information, the school his kid goes to.
[Woman's voice] Really?
Star: Yeah, I'm savin' that one. That's, that's the one I'm gonna pull out if I have to. If I have to. Oh yes, I'll, I'll come for your kids. I will come for your kids. I finally got the information on his slant eyed, whore wife. The information on his slant eyed, whore wife. Yes. A cat who actually ran a train on her, contacted me. [chuckle] Allegedly ran a train on her once upon a time. Allegedly. Once upon a time. Ejaculated all over her face.
Star: No, let me just touch on this real quick, But there's a woman out there right now who pushed out a little lo-mein eater by a DJ down by the sloppy station. I got at this alleged slut whore, heh, and this little half a lo-mein eater. ... Yes, I disrespected your seed. If you didn't hear me, I said, I would like to do an R. Kelly on your seed, on your little baby girl. I would like to tinkle on her.
Call the cops? *****, please, there's no bodyguards. I carry the 9. Most of the cats that are with me, have felony convictions, they can't carry. I'm disrespectin' your seed. I would like to skeet on the face of your seed. Now that's, that's real talk dawg. You have to come holla at me now. Call me, I'll meet you somewhere, but don't act like you were waiting in some parking lot with like 50 ******s. Please.
Now, again, to the woman, who carried that little mongrel for 9 months. ... I'm coming for your seed. Did you hear me? (*thump, thump, thump* noise) I want to do an R. Kelly in the mouth of your seed fem? You holla at me now I'm the easiest man in the world to find. *snickers* And my name is The Hater. You holla back now, DJ Envy.
Star: Let me see now, uh, DJ Benji attention! In case you didn't hear me, I said, I want to put some mayonnaise in between your baby girl's ass crack and take a bite
Well it is certainly racist, obnoxious, vile, and totally inappropriate, but I would think and even HOPE, that is protected speech. That was the whole purpose of that thing called the Constitution.
Bucky Turco: you wouldn't know the Constitution if it pucnhed you in the face.
That comment about the mayo, disgusting. Utterly vile. I hope this is what they do to him in jail.
NYPD: Throw the book at this guy! Let him spend a little time with the big boys in jail, that'll give him plenty to rant about.
Hot 97 & Power 105-- and all radio stations with a conscious: Stop re-hiring this idiiot!!! Star has a lengthy track record of saying horrible, irresponsible, disgusting things. People who listen to your types of music stations need better media representation than this idiot...
Uh...no. Since when are threats of physical violence and/or sexual assault on a child "protected speech"? That would be, um...never.
I just can't believe this Star ijit knows the word "ejaculate." It's almost impressive.
We have now put a man in jail.. for something he said on the radio.
Fire him, absolutely. Slam him so he never works in that industry again, definitely.
But jail???
Not for nothing, but I've read worse things on Gothamist posts (especially today, my God). So who should we slap the cuffs on first?
he threatened the life of a 4-year old. he said he's carrying a 9 and he's ready to use it. that's not freedom of speech. that's a threat of murder on a child. is this what hip-hop culture has sunk too. i guess i'm out of the loop, i only listen to kayne, nas, ghostface and jay dee and stuff like that. i mean this is beyond the realm of the the worst stuff i've ever heard anyone say. wowzers.
They've arrested people for less on those Dateline internet perv episodes.
And, he's got a gun, hanging out with felons,
into golden showers, gangbangs, and whatever
freaky sex stuff he mentions. I believe, one is
bukake, or whatever.
Not to mention, offering money for info on air.
Sounds like some of the commenters from this here Web site could have come up with the above.
This is ridiculous.
What's the excuse this time, "it was all for ratings"?
Morning radio is so boring. Whatever happened to just playing music, without all the contests, the idiotic sound effects, the hysterical fans calling in, and the moronic dj's?
For all the people who gripe that those of us wearing iPods are "shutting ourselves off" from those around us -- it's better listening than the crap being broadcast.
Technically, I think a free-speech attorney could argue this case and win. Not that I'd necessarily advocate it, but he does have the freedom to say what he wants to say. It's when he actually takes it to the level of action that's illegal.
Putting his Number, a $500 reward for info, likely legally crossed the line on Free Speech.
There is no such thing as unlimited "free speech." For instance, as the old saying goes, you can't shout "fire" in a crowded theater. And if this cretin had threatened on live radio to shoot the President, he would be in a Federal prison, like it or not.
I'm also not surprised at his racism. It's arguable whether blacks are more racist than whites (I don't believe so), but they're certainly more open about it, probably because inner city culture promotes an "in your face" attitude. My Asian friends say they've certainly endured more hate speech from blacks while racist whites have usually been more subtle about it.
Are they charging him with harassment and endangerment of a child or something?
So, I guess the child angle is why he was arrested.
God, Jen...get off your soapbox already. How many times you gonna repeat the lo-mein line. We get it, you're asian. You're offended.
I must be getting old. I can't understand a single thing in that transcript. Don't people use English anymore?
At some point it's hard to distinguish animals from humans.
holy crap,
I'm reading the transcript again, and saw one word was censored. Looks to me and I may be wrong, I'm only an honorary doctor, the word is "nigger".
How is lo-mein eater even a insult? Chinese people ain't even offended by that shit cause it's stupid. Only blacks get offended cause they are insecure cause all the whites used to call them watermelon and fried chicken eaters and are trying to displace that shit on asians but asians don't give a crap cause Asians are only concerned with living for tomorrow and making money. I mean asians are racist too but it's a fast racism, you know what I'm saying? It's more like "don't walk down that street cause a black guy is gonna rob your ass" kinda racism. While Blacks are more like "I fucking hate Asians. I'm gonna kill em and treat them worse than the white man does to me!" Fucking lo-mein eaters? wack!
Offering $500 to the listeners and basically encouraging them to stalk a child is what made this case so big.
In fact right now, if that were your child would you actually feel safe?
This dumbf**k decided to put a target on a kids back just because of a ratings beef. He's scum. Plain and simple.
Dude, thanks for clearing that up....now reread what you just wrote and see how much sense it makes. That just about as ignorant as what the "shock" jock said. "Only blacks get offended cause they are insecure cause all the whites used to call them watermelon and fried chicken eaters and are trying to displace that shit on asians but asians don't give a crap cause Asians are only concerned with living for tomorrow and making money. I mean asians are racist too but it's a fast racism, you know what I'm saying? It's more like "don't walk down that street cause a black guy is gonna rob your ass" kinda racism. While Blacks are more like "I fucking hate Asians. I'm gonna kill em and treat them worse than the white man does to me!" Fucking lo-mein eaters? wack!"
I hate asians! they always bogart all the lo-mein.
that's why chinks are self hating.
they should care and protest each and everytime this happens.
but chinks don't want to start trouble.
let them self destruct.
until there's plastic surgery for them slit eyes, they'll always be chinks, but they'll never understand.
dumb chinks don't even know chink is a derogatory remark. that's how in the chink dark they are.
hey friedricehater, I bet 100 bucks you are asian and you are just saying the opposite so you get asian people angry.
Gee, ya think??
I rest my case.
OH c'mon.
that was not venomous graphic violent hatred as shown on some other posts.
the splitting of heads, the hanging a cat by an extension cord, the feed them to the ovens, please.
when did GOthamist become the breeding ground for The NEW ORDER? scary.
Tim N., YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT.
People, get a grip. THIS IS NOT A "CRIME."
VILE AND HORRIBLE? YES!
Does his employer have a right to fire him? Yes!
Does anyone have a right to villify him? Yes!
Is he an asshole? Yes!
Did he have the "mens rea" to commit a misdemeanor crime when he uttered those words? NO!!
IT'S AN ACT! IT'S THE RADIO! Do you believe beyond a reasonable doubt that the man (I say that loosely) criminally meant what he said????
Go ahead, arrest any actor or actress who portrays a murderer!!
If you're not convinced this is prosecutorial abuse and politically correct bullshit, consider this: do you for a bleeping second believe that if someone called the radio station and said "oh, I know where the kid is, give me the $500", anyone at the station would say "OK, thanks, you won the prize." BULLSHIT. They would say something like (OF COURSE), "look, fella (or asshole), we weren't serious! Are you kidding, nuts, or sick? It's a radio act!!
Which half of Star are you guys figuring for the racist? The Italian half or the Black half? It seems rather apparent from certain comments that no one is aware that Star was raised, in the New Jersey suburb of Scotch Plains, by his Italian mom. This is the second article on the issue that I've read on Gothamist and comments are getting more and more out of pocket each time I check in. No, his mixed race background doesn't excuse him, but when you generalize to say that "inner city Blacks" behave in such and such a way then, baby, you are talking about a different story, not this one.
Black AND Italian?
Damn, that's racist to the nth degree.
Or as the math geeks would say, a given.
I guess squirting jizz on a 4 yr old is Ok with many here. Thick, salty, mayonaise jizz.
Jizz between the 4 yr old's ass cheeks.
it was trash talk on the radio, it was a routine, dj starr was playing the bad boy role which he is paid to do. how many times do people say on the radio and tv, I'm going to kick your ass!" this is a travesty. john liu had no problem when his friend in the city council, charles barron, who said that he feels like smacking white people for his mental health. John Liu additionally met with the dictator of zimbabwe, robert mugabe, who is not just talking about violence, but has engineered mass rapes and murders in a campagn of ethnic cleansing against whites and his black opponents.
