Republican candidate for governor Eric Deters was charged with menacing, harassment and trespassing after a run-in with his nephew on a Northern Kentucky farm.
It all started with Deters’ nephew, a juvenile, flipping him off near his driveway on Oct. 3. The criminal complaint filed by the nephew alleges that Deters then proceeded to chase his nephew, identified as “J.D.” in the report, later sending harassing texts and voicemails to his sister-in-law, the juvenile’s father.
A witness saw Deters, 59, following J.D. as closely as two feet behind him.
“J.D. stated that he purposefully drove past security cameras on the property for his own safety as he was being chased,” the police report reads. It also states the Deters left his sister-in-law a voice message complaining that his nephew was “tough enough to flip me off, but not tough enough to stop, to stop and confront me, the little p**** f***er.... you tell little [J.D.] that Uncle Eric doesn’t f***ing play. I don’t play.”

Although for qpukes, this behavior likely is perceived as some sort of badge of courage.
