Sharpton's Daughter Apparently Called Mom For Help

2009_11_domsharpton.jpg The Daily News adds a new detail to the "road rage" arrests of Dominique Sharpton and Kathy Jordan—the daughter and ex-wife of the Reverend Al Sharpton. Apparently 23-year-old Dominque was pulled over by cops after allegedly driving through a red light, so she called her mother who "rushed to the scene to find Dominique in the back of a police car, Sharpton's attorney said." The women argued with the cops, eventually being taken to the stationhouse and charged with "disorderly conduct and obstruction of governmental administration." Their lawyer said, "It seems they were arrested simply because they asked why the ticket was being given." The Reverend Al, aside from his Tweets yesterday, remains quiet on the issue.

Any description of the perps? Oops I mean police officers. If the Rev is tight lipped about the situation let me guess.

its a big surprise that Princess Sharpton would act like and entitled, loud-mouth blow hard. she's obviously learned from the best.

"Their lawyer said, "It seems they were arrested simply because they asked why the ticket was being given.""

Who is this bullshitter of a lawyer that Sharpton is using, Sanford Rubenstein, ambulance-chaser extraordiaire?

Is the picture used above a real picture of his daughter? If so it sure looks like she is trying to erase any visual references to her African heritage. Blonde blue eyed?

ouch. but you've GOTTA check out the DN link. his ex-wife looks like Deion Sanders in drag.

Oh, good god! That has got to be one of the scariest looking "ladies" I've ever seen. Looking at that photo causes mild trauma.

That's not his wife, it's Dennis Rodman. They must have mixed up the photos.

Let's keep in mind Rev Al's hairstyle isn't Afro-centric.

Ha! Sharpton's spawn is a fake bitch! The fake 'ho has got to go..

If that had been a white driver running a red light, and then hitting a black person, Sharpton would be all over the place. What the daughter did was dangerous, and it's only luck that she didn't wind up responsible for a death or injury.

False analogy. Nobody was hit nor hurt by a car.

I believe his ex told him to butt out which might explain his tight lips on the matter. I wonder if we can convince the former Mrs. Sharpton to shut his ass up on a full time basis. How much money do you guys think that would take?

Isn't 23 a little old to call Mommy for help?

From the picture she looks like such a nice girl

She is, and an A student none the less. She just graduated from middle school and got a full scholarship to the Charles Rangel School of business and accounting manipulation. I heard her father had to pull some strings to get her in, but that is only what I heard on FOX 5.
