Woman charged for brutal McDonald's beating was arrested for assault last year at the SAME restaurant

A few days ago I posted a video to two Black teenagers attacking a White female. Now it turns out that one of the female thugs is a repeat offender, having attacked and beaten two White females at the same McDonald's last year. The 38 year mother and her daughter (of an undisclosed age) were beaten relentlessly. Brown should have been charged with racial hate crimes and locked away, but instead, Maryland Judge Norman R. Stone issued a “do not prosecute” order on her two assault charges. Brown was released back into society to continue with her terrorising.The 'female' victim that these two thugs attacked on 18 April is transgendered and probably the only reason it's come to light. The attack was ignored until the transgender community became aware that one of their own had been attacked and all of a sudden it's just fine and dandy and justified to proceed with prosecuting this as a hate crime. If it were a lowly straight White woman beaten then it would have been ignored. This is how low we have stooped in this world.


Charged: Teonna Brown is accused of brutally attacking a transgender woman at a Baltimore County McDonald's

The teenager accused of brutally beating a transgender woman at a McDonald's in Baltimore County was arrested for assault last year - at the same restaurant.

Police today announced they had charged Teonna Monae Brown, 18, after a video emerged of her and another girl allegedly kicking, punching and stamping on Chrissy Lee Polis.

The attack was so violent the 22-year-old had a seizure.

Brown's own sister turned her in on Friday, telling police she and her alleged accomplice, a 14-year-old girl, had admitted to the attack.

News of her arrest came as transgender activists announced they would be holding a protest outside the Rosedale restaurant at 7pm today.

Yesterday Miss Polis revealed how she was 'afraid to go outside' after the April 18 assault, which she hinted could be racially motivated as the two attackers were both black.

And, in what could be a major blow for McDonald's family-friendly image, she claimed staff stood by and allowed the attack to continue.

One worker, Vernon Hackett, filmed the beating and later posted it online, where it attacked hundreds of thousands of viewers.

According to police Brown was arrested last July for allegedly attacking a mother after a dispute inside the same McDonald's.

In a handwritten police statement seen by the Smoking Gun, mother-of-two Danielle Dower, 38, described how Brown allegedly followed her out of the restaurant yelling : 'Did you call me ugly?'

She said Brown 'kept trying to badger us' after she said no and tried to move away with her two daughters.


Mrs Dower claims Brown pushed her, but when she pushed back she 'took her fist and threw a punch to my face.'

In an attempt to get her children to safety, Mrs Dower went into a nearby shopping centre, but claims Brown and two friends followed them inside.

As she called 911, the two friends allegedly seized her daughter by the hair and dragged her across the floor.

She wrote: 'I had to stop talking to the operator, get on top of my daughter and protect her while trying to fight off those girls.'


The fight left her with cuts to her face, and her eldest daughter suffered cuts to her knee and face as well as bruising to her forehead.

Brown was charged with two counts of misdemeanour assault, but according to the state attorney the victim later asked for all charges to be dropped, and the case never went to court.

Now she faces three first and second-degree assault charges in connection with the April 18 assault of Miss Polis.

The 14-year-old, who was also reported by Brown's sister, has been charged as a juvenile.

She has not been named, but police claim she admitted in an interview that she and Brown 'both got into a fight with a woman over using the bathroom.'


Yesterday state's attorney Scott D. Shellenberger said hate crime charges were being considered.

He said: 'If there is evidence that the crime was racially motivated, we will take a look at those charges and see if we meet those elements. We have the ability, if the facts are there, to upgrade the charges at a later date.'

Yesterday their alleged victim, Miss Polis, spoke out for the first time about the beating she received.

She said she was afraid to go outside after the attack. She said: 'They just hurt me really bad, and I'm afraid to go outside now because of stuff like this.'

In an interview with the Baltimore Sun, she said the violence kicked off after she had used the ladies' restrooms in the McDonald's outlet, but denied reports that this was the reason why the violence erupted.
She said of her attackers: 'They just seemed like they wanted to pick a fight that night.'


She said she was approached by one of the girls, who accused her of 'looking at my man'.

When Miss Polis insisted that she was not even aware of the girl's partner, the physical abuse began with the girl spitting in her face.

She said: 'She started ripping my hair, throwing me on the floor, kicking me in my face.

'I got up and tried to hit the girl. I had her in a corner, to try to get her off me, and the other girl came up and started kicking me in my face, punching me in my nose, ripping my earring out of my earlobes.'

Miss Polis said there was no way to escape the attack, adding: ' Every time I tried to walk away they followed me.'

Fired: Vernon Hackett, the employee who shot the footage, has been sacked from his job at the McDonald's outlet

Miss Polis said: 'Everybody in that McDonald's sat there and watched me get hurt. Nobody did nothing at all.

'And then they tried to tell [the girls] to leave because the cops were coming, so they could protect them and not me.

'I remember the guy working at McDonald's was taping me on his cell phone, and I told him to get it out of my f***ing face. And he sat there, and he must have taped me even further.'
