6'6, 215lbs and he ran at the ref with speed. But still had to cheap shot him from behind. What a coward, and awful role model for his kid.
He's a kid. There's still time to rehabilitate him. The rest of the season not dressing might help.
Son was acting like a punk at first. Then you see why. Apples still on that rotten tree
His son behaves like a bully exactly the way his father has taught him. The Dad should do jail time and community service.
Hope he gets the full 10 years. 1 for assaulting the ref, 2 for being an out of control idiot, and 3 to hopefully save his son from being raised by an asshole
Dad teaching his kid to be an idiot bully like himself. I hope he gets years in prison.
0:08 Notice that it was the assaulter's son who first hit the player in the head and then waited until the player's back was turned before pushing him again. Angry cowards, both father and son.
I hope this referee sues this punk for everything he owns
What a coward of a dad he is. To push a 72 year old ref, with his back turned away from him to the ground. Then pleads not guilty. Wtf????
Typical republican.
@@classicsciencefictionhorro1665 bet he smacks the kid around too, fits the personality perfectly
@@classicsciencefictionhorro1665 my bet is yes
Tough guy, 6'6" over 200 and hits a senior citizen from behind, classless.
the world has no shortage of chickenshit people like that either, this video is all I need to know about him that he's a fucking coward or at the very least devoid of honor

Im sure hed drop u too buddy😂
@@ycgdante8209
Sycophant.
@@ycgdante8209 Wow a thumbs down for such an ignorant comment. I am bigger than the cowardly punk who attacked the ref, but when you are not looking and someone comes barreling toward you from behind, you are going to get hurt. Attacking anyone like that (especially an old guy) is cowardly and criminal. This happened over a year ago, so I wonder if the punk even served any time.
His kid did it to the other kid first. Then dad comes in and does that. What a family.
😞😞😞
bet mom has some stories , and bruise's
it dey culcha
The son started the brawl by elbowing the opposing player in the back. Wonder where the kid learned to do that. Bet the dad was a dirty player as well.
9 colleges in 6 years... speaks volumes.
Now we know why his son plays the way he does: Dirty.
Put the dad in jail. Show the kid that dads action is not allowed or tolerated.
His kid is a little bully too and the one that started this whole mess.
Probably learnt this from his father.
I like how he blindsides the ref then casually begins to walk away as if nobody noticed. What a complete coward!
"No-one touches my son" then plants a 72 year old referee face first into the court, who categorically had not touched his son. Didn't have any problem with his son's behaviour though! No wonder the son is like he is and no-one wonder the dad is likely going to jail, what a terrible example.
I was at a Lake Washington Soccer Association game when a MOTHER ran onto the field with her dog and sicced the dog onto a referee. She was banned for life from attending any more games. The ref kicked the dog hard in the face in self-defense. Kids on the team were crying and my daughter stood there stunned and couldn't believe someone did such a crazy thing.
Assaults a referee in front of children, and a large group of adults, who can all I.D. him as the assailant.
"I plead not guilty."
You notice he went after the old white guy... not the black guy who pushed his son to the ground.
as a matter of fact. i did see that
Notice how he plows into the guy when they guy is FACING AWAY FROM HIM and doesn’t have a chance to brace himself for the blow. Mark of a coward.
So what about the other ref who did the exact same thing to his kid?
@@awptsm There is a big difference between a ref trying to break up a fight and accidently pushing his kid to the ground, vs. someone who has no business on the court bum rushing an old ref. He could have been killed hitting his head on the court that hard. If the dad had any guts, he would have gone after the ref who accidently pushed his son to the ground.
BTW - Did anyone notice how the dad went after the white ref who did nothing, but ignored the black ref who actually pushed his son?
That’s teaching the kids sportsmanship. I can only imagine what he does at home to his family.
Suprise, he also was arrested on domestic violence in 2015... like father like son.
How much courage does it take for a 6'6" guy to bull rush a 72 year old from behind and knock him down? What an example for his son. This guy has had enough chances in life to learn anger management. Time for jail.
As much courage as the lard ass ref, who threw the kid to the floor with his big warthog belly
I’m a dad. My son just started high school basketball. As a parent watching, you are your child’s number one fan but NOT their bodyguard. This guy is a menace to be that big and push a little old man like that.
Thank you because I'm a dad too and would never act like that.
“Not their body guard” you must be a horrible father. You sound like a democrat.
@@harrydinglbary1176 on the court I mean. If he gets fouled hard am I to run on the court and assault the offending kid? I think the fact that this guy was arrested and put in jail tells you it’s not the right way to behave.
Those people need to be arrested for assault and battery lawsuit
Needs to serve time and anger management classes. Son needs to be suspended from playing, if not there is a very high probability that the son respond in the same way as his father. Feel bad for the kid, but the cycle of behavior needs to be broken. No excuse for this behavior.
Such a fine example for his son! Set a good one this time: plead guilty and take your punishment like a man.
And be labeled by people like you that walk on water
The classic moves of the bully/coward. The blind side sneak attack followed by running away.
This man was arrested and indicted in 2022. Since then, “crickets.” What’s the point of reporting this if you don’t follow up and report if he’s been convicted?
UPDATE! He pled not guilty & He is currently an assistant basketball coach at SKAGIT VALLEY COLLEGE. I can’t make this up …
If that dad doesn't serve time our justice system is broken. Great roll model for his children.
Disgusting. He should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Also I hope the referee sue him for millions.
BAD part IS: HIS son probably has the same mentality,that's how the whole thing STARTED!!!
@@fredpierre2216 So sad. I feel so bad for that poor ref. He’s 70 and some years. Can you imagine some prick doing that to your grandpa?!
He doesn’t have millions of dollars he lives in an apartment
@@Morpheus187 I stated that as hyperbole to express how offensive I found his actions. What a horrible lesson to teach your kid.
@@ediorfitzgerald1478 His kid acted like a punk as well, so he has seen plenty of things already, probably against his own mother.
Put him in jail for the maximum sentence. I'm sure that in prison his anger will CLEARLY lengthen his sentence.
I also had to rewatch it just to make sure we had the facts straight. Here's what we missed. The ref, neither one of them, pushed his son to the floor. Actually, if you watch closely you will see #25 from the green team rush in from the 7 o'clock position and push his son down. The ref tried to hold him up as you see from jersey being pulled. This guy was wrong from the start.
It's sad that I had to slowdown the playback speed to catch the shove but yeah #25 in the green shoved the kid but the kids shitty father didn't catch that and reacted like an asshole....
Any surprise it was his kid that started it.
His son started the whole fight 😂😂
Like father like son.
Terrible people raising MORE terrible kids. Perfect.
Even his son has an attitude. He was threw his hands up in the beginning of the video. No hustle down the court. Then blatantly fouled the kid on the opposing team. Instilled by the parents. Sad.
Isn't football the subject.
The ref didn't even touch his kid.. he just wanted to hurt someone.
In Australia we call that a "coward's punch."
He needs anger management and a lifetime ban from attending the school among with his criminal charges.
Also welfare checks on his family, because if he lashes out with such little provocation in public, imagine what he does behind closed doors.
Yep. He needs to be officially trespassed from the school so that he's arrestable if he ever shows up.
Well said!
It makes no sense , the ref wasn’t even involved in the shoving of his kid .
As a youth sports coach I can confirm a lot of the awful children these days are nothing compared to the awful parents
The guys kid was a little punk too by the way he flicked the kid with the ball in the back. And now we know where he learned that behavior.
his kid instigates the entire incident then he attacks the ref that didn't even touch his son 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏾
He should have a permanent restraining order and ban from all student sports.
Had the referee died it would be manslaughter. He's very lucky.
Attacking an elderly man behind his back is chickensh*t.
Could we keep in mind this man was blindsided never saw it coming, Coward move
The guilty man is a poor excuse for a human. Just an ignorant bully who will raise another ignorant bully.
Nope just a black person taking a cheap shot on a white person is all it is. He knew that guy never touched his kid. If it was the other way around, like I said, I’ve been a hate crime.
Like father, like son... you're not born an unsportsman bully, you learn it from your parents.
Great point... you know dad was proud of that forearm shiver his son hit the other kid with when he wasn't looking. "That's my boy!"
Its always nice to see the parents becoming involved in their children’s lives. It brings tears of joy to my eyes.
I think the elderly ref's sinuses were also stimulated by this event... I guess he, too, was quite touched.👃
@@jimreadey4837 Quite touched...literally.
@@grimreaper7198
That was *my pun...* don't try to steal it.
@@jimreadey4837 I'm stealing them all because you all have better ones than me.
Given that McLaughlin was a 31 year old parent with a son who was at least 13-14 years (middle school) old and maybe 15-16 years old (high school freshman/sophomore), that would mean that the idiot parent had the child when he was 15-18 years old. This clearly shows the character and irresponsibility of Mr. McLaughlin, so is anybody surprised that he still has character issues?
Whatever other punishments he receives, he should be permanently banned from attending any sporting events played by minors.
What is the disciplinary measure for the ref who assaulted his son? Without that then it would have been a normal on court incident
@@awptsm ref was doing his job helped the kid up
@@ramoneritchie4729 if doing his job is truck sticking a kid from behind then helping him up then by your logic this man only had to help the old man up and he would be absolved of the initial blow
@@awptsm are you dumb no one assaulted his son. The ref tried to stop his kid from fighting. Dumb comment.
@@awptsmnothing in the report suggests that the ref assaulted the boy.
How people have the audacity to plea not guilty when they clearly are shown doing the crime always baffles me.
I guess he wants the harshest penalty possible, I'm ok with that
That's got to be the trump effect. Keep lying and never stop. It's so bad
Their in Seattle, crime has been decriminalized by the mighty and ever knowing libtard
Thank scum sucking lawyers who always tell them to plead that way. Naturally they make more money off of defending someone who pleads not guilty, vs. someone who admits their guilt.
When you’re 31 years old 6 foot 6 and you have to bum rush attack a 72 year old referee from the back. The ref didn’t even see big goofy sad dad coming for him. His back faced him the whole time. Helicopter dad should be banned from all sporting events
Attacks someone half his size then runs off the court. This is what cowards do. The man is a coward.
Imma plead not guilty even though I’m on video assaulting an innocent man. . . Yeah, good luck with that Champ.
Give him the full 10 years. Then I guarantee he won’t do that again. At least not for another 10 years.
A coward raising a coward, how could this possible have happened?!?!
The guy needs to be criminally charged for assault. The ref needs to sue hum for pain an suffering, as well as damages.
Absolutely disgusting.. but what do you expect from a guy with his history and nothing learned. Hope he gets sued and/or jail time. He can use that time to fight other grown azz men in prison.
I see his kid commiting a cheap dirty foul on a player from the other team and then striking the kid he just fouled again. Then a teammate retaliates and the ref pushes his kid down trying to stop a fight?. At the end of the day this dad has anger issues and the apple did not fall far from the tree. Hope this family gets some serious therapy. Hope innocent ref makes a fast recovery.
he really needs prison time.
Assuming the Dad is the father of the little punk kid in the white jersey that was instigating, no surprise where he gets it from. I hope the Dad is put in jail for assault, he didn't even shove or hit the ref that put his hands on anyone...
Despite being a physically big man, I am guessing this man has been a punk all his life.
No one behaves like that unless they are a punk. "Man"? No real men don't pull that shit.
You called it
I’ve known big tall guys who couldn’t fight for shit, looks like this idiot is of that ilk.
I see roid rage I think.
He gng catch the wrong person and lose his life .. like that McDonald’s worker did in New York .. ppl who can’t control they anger end up in two places , dead or prison.. dead bkuz that attitude won’t with most ppl.
He has rage on speed dial, he enjoys lashing out and hitting a man from behind -that was a cowards move.
I hope the referee sues the crap outta him.
That explains why his son acted like that. Like thug father, like thug son.
Angry bully raising an angry bully
When you see McLaughlin in action it makes sense why his child acts like a bully. For the kids sake, I would hope that his father is held accountable for his actions and the lesson can learned before the boy ends up in a similar situation.
Not a coincidence that the dad’s son was the one that started it all. He committed the foul (which is semi ok, hard to tell whether he swiped at the kid’s face on purpose or not) but he then later put his shoulder into the other kid’s back which started the physical altercation. So….what woman allowed herself to get impregnated by the father who clearly has dna that should not continue in our species?
Ref should also sue him in civil court.
Stupid reaction. Some people have no business being out in society with normal people. I hope he has to pay, and pay big time for that .
His son looks like he started the incident on the court by pushing the other kid who was trying to back step. Apparently, that bad apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
Pathetic bully behavior.
That ref had nothing to do with his kid getting knocked out. These parents need a time out...a few months behind bars.
Cowardly act! He picked the most frail person to attack.
Notice what the son does? Apple doesn't fall far from the tree it seems.
Watch how his son plays the game..........his attitude and gamesmanship says it all. Like father like son.
Like father, like son.
Now we see where the son gets it from.
Put him in jail!
So the kid is already following in his father's footsteps.
Maybe it's a good idea to send the dad to jail, it'll put a big bully out of the loop and teach the kid about consequences before he goes too far
Full ten years would be ideal with a permanent ban from any sports within school grounds.
Bully from school to adult…
Very well said.
He left his red hat at home
And then to jail hopefully
"Yeah, let's sucker-punch an elderly referee, like a real man!" -- Some idiot
If he was white u would make him President
He needs mandatory jail time
Enough is enough. Jail time. End of story.
Nothing makes you feel better as a kid than when you 700lb daddy comes and saves you from a little push from the smallest kid on the court.
Someone check on his wife and kids. There's no way this is an isolated incident of violence.
Tell me you peaked in high school without telling me you peaked in high school.
The son is a punk and started it all. The other ref actually pushed the guys son down.
What is the problem? 5 years in jail ought to give him enough time to finish with his 'maturing' process.
10 years sounds about right
His family might be relieved! I'm sure he has anger issues at home as well.
Obviously, he never matured. Poor children had to witness adults acting like babies.
Not "adults." "Adult." Only one.
Throw him in jail.
Should get at least 1 year in jail. No excuse for his behavior.
If he was to take a plea deal with the DA, the judge needs to add more stipulations and should still give him a lifetime banishment of ever attending any of his children's sporting events no matter what state the event takes place in. From grade school to the professional level, from basketball to football to baseball to soccer, and on and on...
Agreed.
Can a state (not federal) judge do that? How could s/he enforce it given jurisdiction limitations? Has the DA charged this dad with any crimes against children?
@@internetuser7156 so what you think this guy should just get a slap on the wrist and community service?
This guy has shown a history losing his temper and assaulting others.
His punk kid is out there following in his Dad's footsteps obviously and fouling other players for no reason whatsoever and then trying to bully them more when they say anything to him.
So we are to coddle this guy once again shown him yet again that his actions and the actions of his son go unchecked and that just tells them both that what you are doing is acceptable?!? His son should sit out a year and the Dad needs to go to prison for at least a few years.
What he did was blatant assault plain a simple.
He needs to be shown (and his son too) that the rules apply to everyone with no exceptions.
@@internetuser7156 A lifetime probation can be in forced by a local, state, or federal judge and it can be implied to any jurisdiction in the country. You can always go to another state and live your life while on probation, but if you violate a given order by a judge, anywhere in this country, you can and will be in violation of a judicial order that is punishable to jail time. And plus, look at how his son is being unsportsmanlike towards his opponents. This will be a lesson learned to the son that actions like this has consequences.
Probably an over reach. However it sounds tough!
10 years sounds about right It will give his son time to grow up and not have a shitty role model
He has a long history of violence, and was never really punished. It appears his son
may carry some of his father's traits. One can only wonder what goes on at home.
He needs to be in prison, he cannot function in society and very well may kill someone.
A perfect gentleman being attacked like that? Unforgivable.
And we wonder why there is a shortage of amatuer referees in almost all sports.
No one touches my son in and on a collective contact sports team for children!!! Reasonable reaction…no?
Fuck no.
Looks like the son plays just like dad, dirty..
His son is a chip off the block. Teaching his son how to be dirty just like when he was young.
