Charlamagne's Donkey of the Day

0:00Because you do that donkey thing that we all eat all the bunch of donkeys around it's time to don't give the day and we don't give the day for these hot foods they made with the dog you up the day by the famous what I say some donkey the days just saw themselves it was you what accountability are you taking? I'm not making the people leave this dog you the day for Wednesday March 11th goes to a 46-year-old Houston man named James Earl Johnson black guess what race it is it will not be needed today okay that is one of the blackest names I've ever heard in my life all right this man is named after somebody's great great grandpa though okay he sounds like he was a custodian and a high school when they ended segregation in America in 64 okay a James Earl and Johnson I know he don't got denied for alone quite a few times okay probably discriminated against during

1:03a hiring process or two I know he didn't get a callback you know study show people with black sounding names get 50% fewer callbacks than identical resumes with white sounding names so I know James Earl Johnson wasn't getting no callbacks but anyway James Earl Johnson how is he not James Earl Johnson the third okay that name is too old to be the first okay but anyway James Earl Johnson has been arrested and charged with abusing his wife okay his wife is disabled and investigators are saying he held his disabled wife captive inside their home for years what do you mean okjala he held his disabled wife captive for years well let's go to ABC 13 for the report police from the outside looking in what some I consider a dream home a police say for one woman the house of Crown Ridge court was in fact a house of horrors investigators say the 46 year old woman who's disabled was allegedly held captive in a bedroom for five years by her own husband James Johnson James Earl Johnson arrested Friday morning but a sense bonded out of jail with an order to stay away from the victim and the house with

2:08the couple's children also reside it's here court documents say the victim was held under lock and key with no phone access finally Friday police say her husband left a phone on the night stand which he used to call 911 but police say Johnson cut the call short slapping his wife and carrying her back to bed then hanging up on the 911 dispatcher you've got a woman who's being held captive and that is a pure form of coercive control which is a form of abuse James Earl Mr. Johnson why why you know years ago Larry King the Great Larry King rest in peace to Larry King he said to me you know Charlemagne the greatest question you can ask in an interview is why I think that's the greatest question to ask in life you know I've been going to therapy for a solid decade now and that is what I'm always trying to get to the root of the why of things why did I react this way why did this trigger me why did I behave like this in this moment so it makes me ask that question

3:12of other people often and for James Earl Johnson that's the question why why couldn't James Earl Johnson just get a divorce why couldn't he just break up with his wife what made him treat his wife the way Helen treated Charles and diary of a mad black woman okay was this diary of a mad black name okay the jaw tried mediation the jaw tried legal separation was there any exit strategy discussed it all not even discussed with each other did you have a meeting with yourself James Earl Johnson okay I'm just trying to figure out why you thought captivity in torture was the best course of action here I can't believe I have to say this on breakfast club this morning but leaving a spouse rather than mistreating them is always the better option okay is way more ethical than leaving in her leaving her in a room like he did with a single egg to eat and giving her dinner on one time a day this woman had the call 911 when her husband James Earl Johnson accidentally left her phone on the night

4:13stand this would be Tyler Perry's version of misery okay I was born in 1978 so I remember the movie misery from the 90s when Annie held Paul captive this is that okay at least in the movie misery though we knew the why because Annie was an obsessive fan there was no reason for James Earl Johnson to be doing what he was doing to his wife other than pure evil okay just leave a bruh divorcea all right any expert you ask any counselor you ask will tell you that no one deserves to be treated badly and staying in a miserable or harmful situation often causes more long-term damage than leaving is this story not proof for that is this story not proof that those experts and counselors are correct please let Remy Mark give James Earl Johnson the biggest he huh and this is why you can't have the wrong man providing for you okay we've been having that discussion for like the past week right in somebody call up here this morning yeah somebody
