Tony Davis sent this email to the media this afternoon. Sheriff Tyrone Lewis filed a defamation lawsuit against him and his ex-wife in Hinds County Chancery Court. A deposition was apparently scheduled for Monday. Here is the email.
Mr. Dennis Sweet
I have been trying very hard to find an attorney to represent me on Monday morning at 10:00 a.m. for a deposition at your office.
I
am sorry but I cannot attend a Deposition without legal
representation. I will be working over the weekend trying to get an
attorney to provide me with legal council for all the court proceedings
on the Temporary Restraining Order and all other legal matters dealing
with this issue.
I am not
financially able to hire legal council and provide a retainer for them
to handle my case. It's very hard to find an attorney that would allow
me to pay their fee's over a period of time.
I will try to do everything in my power to get legal council as soon as possible and I will keep you updated on this issue.
I
would appreciate your understanding in this matter and understand
that at this time I do not have the funds or the means to get financial
assistant in order for me to address this issue at this time, Again
thank you for your understanding in this matter. If there are any
questions or concerns please contact me at the number provide to you in a
earlier e-mail. I can also be contacted through my email at xxxxxxxxxx.
Thank-You

Dennis Sweet is himself a completely horrible human being.
7:26 - 'birds of a feather'?? Too bad Davis can't get anybody to represent him - what better place to have him spend his Monday than with somebody just as reprehensible
I'm no fan of the Sheriff, but Tony has no brains. Is he actually stupid enough to think there would be no consequences for his comments? He must have grown up thinking everybody will cut you a deal if you "cry poor" long enough. The climate of feeling sympathy for crooks and those who act like a$$'s has changed.
Tony is up against one of the nastiest black lawyers in the country with power and a big bankroll to back it up. Tony may be a hero in the court of public opinion, but he's about to get slaughtered in the court of law. Good look little buddy.. you're gonna need it.the good ol boy network aint just white people.
Tony Davis as a human being sucks. I mean SUCKS. He attracts the lowest of the low, that feed him bogus crap, he runs with it, and makes a continual fool out of himself. He is filled with hate, jealousy and is a 66 year old revolving loser. Kinda like the SAD 71 he depends on for filth, or the low life , self serving "lawyer" of choice.
All will be clear soon. Spell AFFADAVIT JR. and enjoy life for now. It is coming. HARD.
People are compelled to attend depositions by court order. That being the case, he might want to direct his plea to the judge who issued the order instead of the plaintiff's attorney.
As stupid as this person is, he managed to find somebody to piece together an email for him, thinking it will assist him in dropping through the cracks. It won't.
Crystal won't represent him?
4:23 AM
Parties are NOT compelled to depositions by Court order 99.9% of the time. Depositions are set by Notice filed with the clerk and dates/times are usually agreed upon by the parties.
In this instance, there may well be an Order...but I doubt it. His plea to Dennis will be effective as no Judge will compel someone to be deposed without counsel at this stage of the proceeding. Now, if Davis does not secure counsel soon...that could change.
The more you know.
If he had Sweet's influence, money and connections, he might be able to escape ever being deposed. Davis is up against a far bigger slimeball.
This matter ain't high on Sweet's list of important shit. No money in it.
Surprised, with the attention this is getting, slimy John Reeves hasn't stepped up. He attracts this type of client usually.
As someone who has received Tony Davis' attention years ago, this can't happen to a more deserving guy. He is mentally unstable with a social media platform. In days of old, a guy like this would just wander around and the rest of us would get out of the way. In today's world, he attacks and affects people like a virus using social media and the radio. People like him, Precious Martin, Malcolm Johnson, Stokes clan, etc. do NOTHING to better this community.
Regardless of what one thinks of Dennis Sweet or Tyrone Lewis in other matters, they will do ALL of us a favor if they can neuter Tony Davis.
If you read this email loudly and in a real whiny voice (think Doug and Wendy Whiner of SNL fame).....it is quite funny.
I'm sure people in hell must ask for ice water on a daily basis...it too, is denied due to piss-poor planning
"Tony may be a hero in the court of public opinion"
Uh, why, exactly?
Davis and the other defendants have not filed responses as of two days ago. I think the plaintiffs have issued subpoenas and that is it as far as the depo goes.
7:16: In this case, 'parties' didn't agree on any deposition as this punk is not represented by counsel. Whoever wrote this email request for him did it with the deliberate intention of someone seeing it who could and would dispense with any deposition. If one is not compelled by order of the court to be deposed, one only has to not show up or tell the other side to stick it. No need for a lengthy email. Please pay attention.
I've been required by court order to attend a number of depositions. Your self righteousness leads you around by the nose.
Does anyone think there is more to the story? I mean, does anyone think this targeting of Tyrone could lead to a deeper source? Someone benefitted from his attacks, did they not? I've seen pictures of Tony at a certain candidate's fundraisers. There are rumors that he was the voice for certain candidates. All he did was spread rumor and innuendo which was fed to him by someone.
I've always wondered who was doing some of his "research" in some of those emails.
Reeves can't represent Mr. Davis. He once represented the Sheriff.
4:52 - That's not right either. One has to show for the deposition or get a protective order from the court. If he doesn't show, the deposing party will file a motion to compel and ask for attorneys fees as a sanction for failing to cooperate in discovery. MRCP 37(a)(4). If an order issues and the deponent still doesn't show, the court could order sanctions.
Bottom line. Davis is a sick, angry, demented person who surrounds himself with same.
KF so what if John Reeves represented Tyrone? This is a completely different animal. I am truly shocked he isn't all over this as he routinely represents Davis's cronies, et al. What is your reasoning?
6:07 - I was indeed right. One is entirely within his rights to ignore a notice to appear for deposition, most especially someone not represented by counsel. And the 'other side' is within THEIR rights to ask for a court order. Nobody has to answer a notice to appear for deposition. It's similar to a roadside sobriety test. You have every right to refuse it. Then the other side has every right to haul your ass in and compel a test or there are further consequences. That a court may order sanctions is beside the point of my original claim that one can ignore the notice.
Attorneys have every right to request that parties show up for depos. Parties have every right to no-show. What follows may change the landscape. But, that doesn't remove the rights that people have. Attorneys can 'demand' all kinds of shit. Whether or not they get it is another matter.
Well, what would I know about it. I've only been practicing law for 30 years.
Mr Lawyer of 30 years. Serious question here. Will the douche be forced to testify under oath, if his broke ass can't get an attorney, or find one that will stoop to represent him? Will he be appointed one? He needs to testify UNDER OATH. Will that happen in any event?
Yes. He will have to testify under oath. If he doesn't show up for the deposition, the judge will probably take pity on him and order that he has so many days to get an attorney and the judge will probably set a date certain for a deposition for which he will have to show, attorney or no.
Good. This AH has been thumbing his nose at decency, surrounding himself with trashy groupies that feed him bullshit that he doesn't check on the accuracy. He prints it under this first amendment crap, and does all he can to try to destroy people. Because he has no credibility with decent people, he doesn't get traction in the "decent" community, but it is tiring. I hope he, and the circle he has spread to, are all deposed, especially some of those that use him for their purpose.
Not to worry 4:50. A simple call to John Boy Reeves and he is all set. Reeves loves low life clients. Do a little research, then die laughing.
Reeves can't represent him at all without the consent of Sheriff Lewis.
Thanks 6:54. I am sure if asked, Lewis would welcome that dipshit as an opponent. Sweet will pull at least one "N bomb" from him.
He is famous for that 7:13. Thanks for reminding. And surely you meant 6:34. An " N bomb" from John Reeves at least once, is expected and anticipated. What a loser.
Dayum. Why yall so hard on the "Dancing With The Ego Stars" stiff neck John Reeves?? He IS an egomaniac, but WTF?
He needs to learn how to spell "counsel."
John; Not to worry, if you're reading this. There's a couple of turds in every punch-bowl. You've obviously irritated a few anon posters who get off on vomiting on their own shoes.
4:52, why do you comment on things you know nothing about? You make yourself look like a fool.
8:17 one thing I do know is that Tony Davis is a clown. What a freaking basket case.
I use to work alongside Tony. Schitzophrenic, paranoid, nervous, angry, dangerous. He really needs professional help. Really.
Tony can be a good guy one minute and crazy angry the next. Hones in on people and perceived issues. Imagines he is a leader. Most people are simply afraid of him. Not because he has any power or worth, but that he will start killing people if angry enough.
He. Needs. Help.
