Phillip Crechale will not go to prison after he was arrested for domestic violence last year. A Hinds County grand jury indicted Philip Crechale in March for aggravated domestic assault. The indictment charges:
on or about the 14th day of October, 2022, in the county aforesaid and within the jurisdiction of this Court, the said defendant, being a male human being, did willfully, unlawfully, and feloniously attempt to cause serious bodily injury to xxxx xxxxxx, his son, or caused such an injury purposely, knowingly, or recklessly under circumstances manifesting extreme indifference to the value of human life; to-wit: during a verbal altercation with xxxx xxxxxx, Phillip Crechale became violent and strangled xxxxx xxxxxx before leaving the scene, all occurring within the jurisdiction of this Court and in violation of Section 97-3-7(4)(a)(i) of the Mississippi CodeAnnotated (1972, as amended).
The arrest report provided more information:
On 10/14/2022, Deputy Mertis Walker was dispatched to xxxxx and xxxxx Old Port Gibson Road in reference to a welfare check at the request of xxxx xxxxx (Boy's mother) on behalf of her 15 year old son xxxx xxxxxx. Once on the scene, the son stated that his father had been drinking, started arguing with him, then choked him because his father stated that he was weak after watching him play football for his high school. The son had minor bruising on his back and around his mouth. The father came on scene intoxicated and advised that he did choke his son xxxx xxxxxx so he was arrested for aggravated assault domestic violence on the authority of the on-call investigator, Lieutenant Turner.
Attorney John Collette represented the defendant. The case was assigned to Circuit Judge Faye Peterson.
Judge Peterson remanded the case to the inactive docket after Crechale agreed to enter the pre-trial diversion program. The order states the charge is reduced to from aggravated domestic violence to mayhem.
Assistant District Attorney Steven Usry asked the Court to remove the no-contact order between Crechale and his son. Crechale's motion to remove the bond conditions states he attended AA meetings and at least three parenting classes at Hinds Behavioral Health Services.
Kingfish note: One last question: Will this plea bargain be sponsored by Allstate?

Well, any bets on the long-term outcome? Not all drunks are violent but violent people who become alcoholics are. I would hope, for once, that the family could be protected from their crazy abuser before they are murdered.
Yahweh says it’s okay for a man to use violence to discipline his women and children. Even Yeshua used violence at the Temple.
This is a textbook example of a total POS that has had very few consequences for harming a lot of people including his family.
He has simply lived too long. But his youth has departed, and there is still plenty of time for him to meet the wrong person that will cleanse society of his existence.
Somebody's about to catch them good hands
Well, yeah, @9:17, that’s true. But it just strikes me that one must be sober and clear-headed when one metes out discipline and not sorry-assed drunk. The reason should be obvious.
@11:17
Touché
Fair enough.
9:17: Most of us who are not Jewish are living under the New Covenant. You're about 2,000 years behind.
As for the post, I didn't realize aggravated domestic violence qualified for PTI (Pre-Trial Intervention).
That'll learn him.
NOT!!!
Over charged to the core. Dad loves his boy! Beyond 99 percent of dads.
Great! A man should be able to whoop his boys ass just like we took growing up. Judge Peterson understands Dads!
Hinds county, Jackson! These 2 areas are determined to remain last in livability not only in Mississippi, but in the country.
