WTF?!? Man Arrested After Slapping Crying Baby On Delta Flight to Atlanta… [PHOTOS]

Feb, 17 2013 | Written by ATLien
Meet 60-year old Joe Rickey Hundley of Idaho.

Hundley posed for the mugshot above after he allegedly slapped a fellow passenger’s toddler and called the child a racial slur during a flight.

According to an FBI court affidavit, the incident occurred on Delta Flight 721, which was set to land at Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport on Feb. 8th and Hundley now faces federal assault charges.

Details + news footage below…

VIDEO: Man Allegedly Slaps Another Passengers Child For Crying on Delta Flight

Hundley was seated next to Jessica Bennett and her 2-year-old son, who began crying as the plane began its descent.

Bennett, who was seated in row 28 alongside Hundley, told FBI agents that she tried to get her son to stop crying when Hundley “told her to shut that [‘N word’] baby up.”

“Ms. Bennett stated that Joe Rickey Hundley then turned around and slapped [the baby] in the face with an open hand, which caused the juvenile victim to scream even louder,” court documents said.

The 33-year-old Minneapolis mother also said the slap caused a scratch below her son’s right eye. That’s when fellow travelers stepped in.

“After Joe Rickey Handley struck [the child], Ms. Bennett received assistance from several people on the plane, including male passenger Todd Wooten,” court documents said.

Wooten, who was seated in row 16, said he heard derogatory language coming from the rear of the aircraft and witnessed Handley slapping the child.

According to TheSmokingGun, Hundley was charged this week with simple assault, according to a criminal complaint filed in federal court in Atlanta. If convicted of the misdemeanor count, he faces a maximum of one year in prison.

Hundley also has a previous record. According to Virginia state court records, he was arrested in 2007 following a fight with his girlfriend. Initially charged with simple assault, carrying a concealed weapon, and public intoxication, Hundley subsequently pleaded guilty to the misdemeanor assault rap.

If allegations are true, how should Hundley be punished?

Saying the “N” word while slapping a baby sounds like a “hate” crime to me…

  A FUCKIN BEAT DOWN

  I talked with someone that seen the incident and the mother was push the guys buttons, doing nothing to ease the crying kid. The kid wasn’t slapped! Or called the n word. The f word was used. The mother is nuts! Poor guy
  
  TRUTH
  
  Quit your lies! She stood up with him at the rear of the plane until it was time to decend; she then had to take her seat. The pressure from altitude change made him cry and then this racist scum slapped and called him the n word. There is never an excuse to slap someone elses child. Take your nonscense somewhere else!

  It’s unfortunate that strangers need to put a stop to other people’s mistakes, specially when it come to children. The mother wouldn’t shut that little nigglet up so he stepped up and did it himself. We need more people like that guy who won’t take shit from people that do things just because they can, even if it means it will annoy others. Yes Hundley will face a slap on the wrist from the law but that’s a small price to pay to show others how to respect in the presence of others. When you’re at home your nigglet can cry all it wants but in public at least make an effort to shut it up.

  So…where we meeting up to go beat this old man’s ass?
  
  STLChick
  
  We’re meeting on my front porch in 23 hundred hours, dammit!
  No way would this keebler have walked off the plane in one piece if this were my child. And why isn’t this pale faced bigot being charged with a hate crime?
  
  Suthernhummingbyrd
  
  I’s on my way to your front porch, now…and yes, this is definitely hate crime status!My child would have been the very last one he ever slapped because I would have beat his old mentally disturbed ass all over the damn plane.
  
  LXL
  
  I was wondering that too. I guess because the boy’s mother happens to be white but that still doesn’t mean they can’t charge him for a hate crime. I would have kicked boxed his old ass into a coma. He’s been suspended from his job as he’s the ceo or president of his company. What an idiot.
  
  Mr Nice Guy
  
  Keebler!! ___________ Weak!
  
  Acappellla
  
  Omg, KEEBLER!! Good one! And yeah he need his ass kicked fa real. And he is lucky the mother was White because had she been Black.. uhh ass kickin’ would have went down more likely.
  
  ALM
  
  @STLChick: Since the Bush administration, the government has been gradually working on phasing out the classification of certain crimes as hate crimes. The decision has been controversial to say the least.
  
  Marismom
  
  lmao @ keebler…..that is so right on target.
- Sista Jenkins via Facebook
  
  He needs his ass whooped!! Shit, they didn’t slap him??smdh
- Senita Jaunun via Facebook
  
  His punishment should have already been her and the rest of the passengers stomping his lights out.
- Rob Johnson via Facebook
  
  I don’t even have kids but if I did and this happened to one of mine then it would be the Apocalypse, Armageddon and the Rapture all in one!

  LOL…I have a son and I feel u on that….

  Senita Jaunun … that’s what i say….

  he look like kermit the frog ugly azz!!!! the mother should have kicked him all up his azz and spit on his old wrinkled azz!!!! she may have went to jail, but she would have felt better! !!!!! totally uncalled for!!!!-!!
- Kisha D. Griffin via Facebook
  
  Punishment? Hes not a child!! The child he slapped was! He needs a good ole fashion beat down!
- Dana Andrews via Facebook
  
  They should but his ass in general population and let THEM sort it out
- Tabitha Daughtry via Facebook
  
  He wouldn’t slap nobody else
- Kim Edwards via Facebook
  
  He wouldn’t be alive right now to even be prosecuted!
- Jill Easler via Facebook
  
  Kim Edwards has my name all over FB, lawd lol
- Miko Goolsby Hixon via Facebook
  
  If it was mine I would have threw his ass out that plane window…
- Tifnie Edward-Early via Facebook
  
  I would have stomped his face in and then his nuts…People are sooooo crazy. He had his nerves!

  These old ass white folks losing they damn minds!! They having flashbacks of the Kunta Kinte days or some shit. They woulda carried his old ass off that plane on a stretcher had it been me…

  You know some whites get in bad moods during black history month.
  
  versatile
  
  @LXL LOL! You know that’s right! Not to mention we pretty much took over ALL of January…I guess they’ve just had enough!??..and looking back seeing that white woman AND man holding a screaming obviously Black baby that looked the slightest bit like Obama just..well..took him over the edge. And now the poor bastard will ALWAYS remember that he lost the ONLY job that his old azz will EVER have in…"BLACK HISTORY MONTH". Member that white chic that killed her husband cause she blamed his no votin’ azz for Obama’s re-elction? White folks aint’ takin’ their meds.
  
  STLChick
  
  LMAO!
  
  ALM
  
  It’s not an age issue. Look at what those undergrad students did at Ole Miss when President Obama was re-elected in November.
  
  It’s not age, it’s a mentality. A lot of people know how to fake in public, but their private hearts are very far away from how they act in your face.
  
  mills
  
  Exactly!! This story is driving me crazy. The main point that everyone is overlooking is that this stranger thought it was perfectly ok to slap someone else’s child. How can anyone with a brain think that was ok for him to do?? It doesn’t matter if the kid is over it or not, and it doesn’t matter that he will not remember the incident, IT WAS WRONG. In my opinion he should have been charged with assault and a hate crime, because that is what it was: a hate crime. I wonder if people would be minimizing this incident if it was a white baby called a little cracker and slapped by a black man. I wonder what the comments would be then?
- oh well!
  
  OH MY (shivering)! I can subliminally feel my right hand throbbing cause I just cracked that old geezer nose. I can only hope and imagine that he feels it.
- new2daA
  
  Damn…we have all been on that plane, next to that loud ass crying kid, or the kid kicking the back of your seat, and at times, I am not even going to lie, I fantasized about perhaps slapping the kid, or even the parent…..but to act on that fantasy….damn. This guy needs to be ashamed of his damn self and as a mother, old boy would have got beat down with my carry on.
  
  LXL
  
  Lol, but you’re right though. I have experienced listening to a crying child sitting right behind me on a plane and the parents could not shut the kid up. I wanted to snap but had to hold my composure, you know these days they will arrest your ass on federal charges for snapping, lol.
- Rawhunee
  
  Kill that crakkka!!!
- wsugarlove
  
  I would be in Jail due to giving the fool a beat down or in the hospital with my foot stuck in his ass having my foot remove
- knotyboy
  
  If that were my child that he slapped they would need a body bag and a surgeon when we landed. The body bag would be for his dead ass and the sergion would be to get both of my feet removed from his asshole!
- knotyboy
  
  I would beat his ass so bad he would be missing from his baby pictures!
  
  Suthernhummingbyrd
  
  DEAAAADDDDDD!LMAO!
  
  Really!!!
  
  LMAO off at your comment but I feel you. I swear he would be coming off that plane on a stretcher and I would not care if I went to jail for it.

- A.N.D.
  
  We all know those crying babies on the planes make you want to scream right along with them. BUT to hit someones baby!!!!! He needed his azz kicked to go along with those federal charges!!!
- Net
  
  Beat his ass until Jesus ask for mercy on his behalf. Look real hard, if you aren’t, sure it,s really Jesus, keep beating that ass.
- versatile
  
  I just saw tv video of that lil’ boy. Looks a lot like "King", T.I.’s son. Lawd I hope nobody don’t try that with King cause King’s lil’ 3’azz would have taken ol’ dude OUT! IJS
- Jersey Mike
  
  I hope this can be charged as a hate crime. It could carry more time with that. Delta could be in trouble too.. He was drinking before he got on the plane and the allowed him on the flight. Ching Ching….
- RLB
  
  Yes, he would have been tried and found guilty immediately. I would have been the judge, jury, and executioner.
- Kay
  
  Ok..can somebody please tell me the response of the mother? I mean seriously, I would have lost it on his azz. They would have still be trying to get my hands from around his throat…seriously.
- lockstress
  
  Well when you are depleting in numbers and you’re about 1generation short of being EXTINCT….I’d be made too. However; you hit a child…..YOU’RE AZZ IS GETTING TOSSED OFF THE PLANE!
- Not like you ghetto people
  
  All of you who have posted on here sound like trash. The woman should have taken care of her child. I would have asked to be moved to another seat, or move the woman and her screaming child.
  
  I’m sure most of you have been on a plane before and you know someone from the 16th row is not going to hear someone in the 28th row.. ridiculous.
  
  You should all be ashamed of yourselves.
  
  taliba
  
  And you are apparently a troll. Depending on how loud this drunk a__hole was talking he may have been heard. The air marshall stated he walked back to the seat in time to see the child slapped. This old racist must be suffering from dementia and generational PP (pencil penis); which made him irrationally jealous of a black toddler, that was in the arms of a white woman. He deserves jail time -see if he slaps anyone there.
  
  Professional Ass Whooper
  
  Get your dumb ass somewhere,I hope somebody slaps the shit out of your child so you can do nothing dummy!! I wouldn’t give a damn how loud my child was crying,put your damn hands on him and see if your ass don’t wake up in front of the pearly white gates!! AnInThatOrder!!
- msking
  
  Wait! Wait !I wanna play! LOL.. the responses are too funny. Clearly she was white. I knew she was white when I heard the story on the TJMS….OOo hell no!!! What wait til I get off this plane,,,,after I punched him in the face. Not only was we gettin off this plane….him with a rag over his nose full of blood, but my cousins, aunties and people who aint no kin to me would have been waitin for his ass! Not enough security would have been around to stop this fight! Are you kidding me? But if it was a black woman who it her child on this plane, DCF, Child Protective Services depending on where you live, would’ve been meeting us at the gate. Seriously, could not have been me. I dont drink, but I would’ve needed one after whoppin his ass.
- Wendy
  
  I would have slapped the taste out of his mouth when he did that & made that racial slur. What a racist BASTARD he is he need to go to jail for a damn year for assaulting this poor child let alone calling him a racist name.
- lovely
  
  My mugshot would have been right next to his because there is no way in hell, I would have allowed this man to call my baby a N***ER and then slap him. Trust, he would have felt what 400 years of oppression felt like.
