Ft. Jackson soldier charged in viral video case currently separated from family, lawyer says
A Columbia judge has granted the solicitor's office more time to prepare their case against a Fort Jackson sergeant charged in an incident in April that went viral making national headlines.
Jonathan Eugene Pentland, a Fort Jackson sergeant, is charged with assault and battery third degree. He appeared before a magistrate Friday morning in Columbia.
According to his defense attorney, Pentland has been kept away from his family and staying at a military hotel since the days after his arrest for the April 14 incident. He has been suspended by Fort Jackson.
A cell phone video showed a man, identified by Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott as Pentland, having a confrontation with a young man walking in the Summit neighborhood in Columbia near Pentland's home.
Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott said Pentland can be heard yelling "walk away," "I'm about to do something to you," and "you're in the wrong neighborhood," to the victim. Lott said Pentland then shoved the victim. Lott said that's what led them to bring the evidence to the solicitor, who determined the charge.
Sad part about it... Is that there's plenty more like him in the military!
some, not all are like that in the military.
Lol you guys literally have soldiers who killed in name of peace racism is the least to be worried about !!!
Then after their service they become cops.
@@CCM1199 he said there are plenty more.. he didnt day "all" of them are like him.. I served 20 years, I can agree, there are way too many.
@@CCM1199 100 times better than criminal...
The wife and any neighbors involved needs to be in court too!
Are you some kind of idiot? It was a neighbor that recorded the incident for the young man’s protection. The wife was talking smack in the vid tho I wouldn’t mind seeing her thrown in jail with him
Oh come on
Hell no
Lmao why cus he hurt someone’s feelings ? If the family dog was out too what throw him in the pound? Plz
@@joseh9021 if the family dog was in on the attack and encouraging it, then, yes. Theres another option…. Bring some people back to handle him, her and anyone else whom participated in this racist attack. Stay in your lane Jose because you and yours have been speaking out of turn for a while now.
Being in the Military requires being separated from family, which is part of the duty, he is separated from his family due to his careless, and reckless behavior.
of pushing someone? ooooh so reckless. Give me a break, they used this man as a pawn to push their disgusting agenda of "white man is racist".

What concerns me the most is just how many young black men and women are subject to his leadership.
I was an NCO. This dude is trash, pure and simple. You are exactly right because I too thought of that aspect. How many were subject to his leadership.
His career is over, no chance at promotion or no other unit will want him. Even if he is indefinite, he will either get discharged or put in a crappy position until retirement.
@Joe Deertay uhhhh good luck with that? Lancer is correct though
@Joe Deertay Sooo, what do YOU think he meant by saying "You don't belong here"? Do you think he would have behaved that way toward a white guy walking down the street, minding his business? I see now, a racial slur must be used in order for it to have racist intent. Are you really serious? Nash, you can't be serious.
Good
I’m disgusted that Pentland hasn’t had the decency to apologize yet
That's because he's not sorry
Different degrees of racism. I can tell, he’s the type who had a crazy racist family and he believed all that crap. Sad; I hope is CO is black.

For what, the black man was harassing one of the girls in the neighbourhood and would not leave her alone. He is an idiot for how he handled it, but maybe the black man should apologises to the woman that he sexually harassed.
His career is tarnished, he will no longer progress any further in the military and if they keep him in they definitely won’t let him reenlist. Karen’s and Kens need to learn to mind their business and learn when and when not to approach people!
I guess he should have ignored that woman cries for help when the black man was harassing her.

No joke! But something tells me he doesn't have many dark skinned peers. That POS needs blood eagled.
He was defending a black girl that just got assaulted by deandre. Army guy wanted him out of his community. In most communities he would have got a severe beat down or shot. You walk through a wrong neighborhood in California you may not walk out if your there causing trouble. He was lucky.

@GordoScarface wipe your mouth when you're done
So do i? A trained soldier who gets word that a black male is trolling the neighborhood and is trying to come to the girls aide gets thrown under the bus because it looks like a racial entanglement. Maybe, she should have called a black neighbor so it wouldn't look racial?
@GordoScarface omg that’s so funny bro 😂😂😂😂 but please take ten steps of a cliff bro
@GordoScarface first comment was kinda funny, but the popeyes one is cringe . You're really edgy and probably a 15 year old
@GordoScarface I understand the part being desensitized, but why are you making semi racist jokes under videos like this one? What do you gain from that?
This is type of Child we don't need in our military.
Who exactly should be in the military? I am assuming you served or were in charge of recruiting?
Being in a Military hotel is on him! just another alleged criminal playing the victim card.
I'd be willing to bet a years pay that after he get charged and released from the military, he enrolls to be a cop. Because once you taste control over your fellow humans you can't do anything else. He lost his humanity. I'm almost certain his wife is greatful he's not home otherwise she would be staying in the hotel with him.
Well Deandre not fit to stand trial due to mental health issues. The incident occurred because Dendre had been causing problems there. That is why he was charged with trepass and animal cruelty. There is also the allegation that he sexually assault a female that lives there. When she came to his house asking for assistance, he should have stay there and not helped her. That is truelty humanity. Remeber, when someone is being assaulted and asks for help, close your blinds and turn the TV up. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9480657/Black-man-confronted-Army-drill-sergeant-mentally-ill.html
@@sydtopia1ok how about a simple explanation. Supposedly based on our agreed apon rules of society. Maybe there was a better way to handle the situation. Rather than assaulting the mentally ill man, call someone who will actually help the situation for everyone. Have him removed in one of these approved methods. 1>call the police and explain it to them. 2> call ems or some sort of mental crisis intervention group. Especially since his oath holds him to the highest of standards. Not to mention that nobody wants him acting like a trained killer on U.S.A. soils.
@@sethklemba Well they did call the Police. I don't think he knew he had any mental problems. Mental problem don't mean he needs ems. The Police were already trying to divert him from the criminal justice system and get him help. When he pushed him he was walking off the road towards his wife. Yea, he handled it badly, but pushing someone and yelling at them is not being a trained killer. The lesson to be learnt that when a female comes up asks for assistance because she is being harassed, walked the other way.
Once hes been in prison i dont think they will accept him as a cop
@@sydtopia1 your wrong you can help an assault victim without being physical with the other person you can stand near her and block him from going to the woman till police arrive which should of been called from start
Discharge him without Military honors. He is a disgrace for every comrade solider on the world.
Why, because he attempted to keep the black man away from the female that he sexually harassed?
@@sydtopia1 That didn’t happen.
@@sydtopia1 that didnt Happen. This was a racist attack. There is no Need to have Those Kind of people dishonouring the Military.
@@carlos17098 Watch the video again. You can hear the woman in the background saying "You picked a fight with some random young lady. That's one of our neighbours" "All I heard was you fighting and her defending herself" At the protest out side his house one of them spoke to victim. They said that she was getting harassed and went into the street to get assistance. Deputies that attended were told the black man approached several neighbours in a threading manner. There were two other reports of the black man alleged to assault someone. They believe he has an underlying medical condition that explains the behaviour. It is alleged that the black man attempted to put his hand down the female pants. You can believe whatever you want, but it is going to court and the witness will tell the court what actually happened. Mr Pentland did handle this badly, but it is not a racist attack like the media is trying to get you to believe.

@@sydtopia1 probation. People aren’t serving time for harassment. I think your thinking of sexual assault if he did that then he should be in prison
@@gottgaame The problem is with the legislation. Since the female and Deandre are not in a relationship as far as we know the family legislation does not apply. So unless the victim wants to do something the matter won't go anywhere. In a lot of cases like this, the victim just wants the offender to stay away from them and does not want to go to court because that is often worse than the incident. Given this was a national media story, if I was the victim I would be staying quiet to. Last thing they probably want is to be on every news outlet in the country.
Look he brought the only black guy in his family to court with him
He needs to be convicted then sentenced to some jail time. After he completes his Jail sentenced he needs to be court martialed and reduced in rank to a private and dishonorably discharged!
What is a military hotel. ?? Never heard of such a thing
A hotel on base lol, u never heard of base housing ect
He’s scared to go home now what a coward he’s not so tough after all.
the military is probably guarding pre-trail. Usually, he would have to live in the barracks. Due to his rank, he can't stay in the barracks. He isn't allowed to live with lower enlisted soldiers. If you're awaiting trial. You can't go home due to safety concerns. Suicide concerns etc.

Bet his wife is feeling dumb af for taking the video.
For absolutely, no reason he throw his own life off the rails!!!! Because he wanted to be big and bad
His career in the military is stalled if they decide to keep him. If he leaves or is kicked out his infamy has spoilt any chances of getting hired in law enforcement or any first responder unit. That’s at least one good thing about social media, bad actors get put on the National stage and forced to eat their infamy!

Soldier boy ain't so tough anymore
He wudve already been dead in the caribbean learn to keep your hands to yourself
dishonorable discharge
Aww poor racist baby....
For a regular civilian it should be five months but he’s a U.S. armed forceman so he should know better because his job is literally to protect the American civilians and he did the exact opposite.
This is ridiculous, let the man go home to his family.
No
Are out talking about the aggressor or the victim here?
Yes, I agree. Let the man go home. I stand up for that soldier. I’m a black man he was protecting his property. It is so sad. That’s why white people look at Black people like us because they prescribe protest in and getting upset protecting t something that they owned.
He was not going to let that young man return
He is not allow to teat people any way he wants. Definitely not allow to put his hands on people.
Why wasn’t he charged with a hate crime ?
Give him 7 months in prison. That fits this crime.
In the video that went viral , "Mr Clean" just wanted to look cool. He even changed his voice to sound like a Drill Sergeant lol. And Barefoot to top it off! Lol...it was ALL FOR SHOW! so he could have a cool story to tell everyone after and to get the pat on his back that he so desperately wants. He is in the Military, so he knows the Protocol when it comes to things like this. And thats to call the cops and aid them in whatever they need. He said " NOW your talking to my wife", which shows the little guy never said anything to his wife until that moment. Little guy did nothing at the time and was just in a neighborhood that doesnt like certain people, Pretty obvious why. I don't care if the little guy did something wrong, Mr Clean didn't see anything therefor doesn't know anything either, except for the fact it was going to draw attention to a perfect opportunity for Mr Clean to get the Attention and Hero look he soooooo desperately needs. He is a Bully, a Tool, a Douch, you name it. He kept telling the guy half his size to walk away, maybe Mr Clean should have taken his own advice! ...pretty simple.
Mr Clean 😂 brilliant analysis!
Oh well keep your hands to your self
I am almost 21yrs Active Duty, retire next year...someone ask him was it worth his career retirement and lifestyle😏
If you truly were all that look up the case now the black guy sexually assaulted and harassed multiple women and was Tyler go because the cops “didn’t want to make him a statistic” so he confronted him
I see a camera I get the hell out of there. Reason? I don't trust myself.
This type doesn't work
This case is total BS, this young man had multiple sexual harassment incidents in that neighborhood and the cops just released him back into the neighborhood. Sgt P. Was right to confront and protect his neighbors from any further attacks from this offender. If the cops did their job this situation would've never happened.
It doesn't matter. He had no right to put his hands on him.

But a civilian cannot play cop.

They should have showed the video from the beginning not just when the man is being shoved. The media never shows the whole video they only show the part that benefits them
There was nothing-believe me if he was committing a crime they would have it on video.The whole reason they started recording was to get him in trouble.But he was Cool,calm and collective.it worked against them.The heifer of a wife instigating the whole situation “Do you want us to walk you home”.If he was a threat,why would they wanna walk him home ?

30 days an 500 hundred dollars 💵 is this a joke ???? Like seriously 😒

Smh do you even know why he got into the altercation? Probably not.. a young lady was asking for help. He came out his house to confront the guy cuz he supposedly touched some woman's daughter inappropriately. He didn't go out there to harm anyone or anything. He was just protecting the neighbors daughter.

I always see people walking around outside without shoes, so your assessment is just based on personal opinion. Furthermore, no matter how you feel about it, the man had no right to put his hands on another person.
