Members of a Florida community are demanding that police do more to investigate a woman after her boyfriend was arrested for allegedly beating to death her 3-year-old daughter.

Jeroen Jarrel Coombs, 32, was babysitting Paisley Brown along with four other children ages 1 to 9 years old at the couple’s trailer home in Citra on Thursday, according to the Marion County Sheriff’s office.

‘He advised that he had bound her hands with a robe tie and her legs with painter’s tape to prevent her from reaching into her diaper the night before.’

Police said they responded to the residence on 44th Avenue at about noon when they were called on a report that the girl was found unresponsive. Paisley was transported to a hospital, where she was declared dead.

An investigation found that Coombs had called the girl’s mother at about 10:58 a.m to tell her the child was unresponsive, but he did not call emergency services. Forty minutes passed until the 911 call was made.

The girl’s mother allegedly yelled, “My baby is gone!” after returning home and seeing Paisley limp in her high chair.

Police said one of the children at the home told them Coombs struck Paisley and “disclosed prior physical abuse” by the man.

Coombs allegedly admitted to injuring the child after he was confronted by police about ligature marks and bruises on the child.

“He advised that he had bound her hands with a robe tie and her legs with painter’s tape to prevent her from reaching into her diaper the night before,” police said. “Coombs claimed that he picked Paisley up while she was still bound and dropped her on the floor, causing her to begin gasping for air.”

Lt. Paul Bloom told reporters the man did admit, “I went too far. I took it too far.”

The other four children were placed in the custody of the Florida Department of Children and Families.

Coombs was charged with aggravated child abuse, but deputies said further charges are forthcoming. He is being held at the Marion County Jail without bail.

Dozens gathered on Saturday to protest and demand accountability for the mother of the child.

“I respect our law enforcement, but I’ve seen countless situations in Marion County where arrests are prolonged for months or even years,” protest organizer Carley Santana said. “I don’t think somebody should be walking free without at least being taken in, questioned, and determined [responsible] by a police officer.”

Paisley’s father, Robert Brown, addressed the crowd and said his daughter’s death was preventable.

“Paisley, she’s amazing. She’s a loving person, who’s always happy and goofy,” he said.

Police said they’re investigating why it took 40 minutes for Paisley’s mother to call 911 after learning that she was unresponsive.

While the State of the Union address is meant to showcase the presidential agenda, sometimes the moments that live on have little to do with policy. And according to BlazeTV host Liz Wheeler, some of the most memorable come from other politicians stealing the spotlight themselves.

“This one I place in the gold medal position here is Nancy Pelosi ripping up President Trump’s speech,” says Wheeler.

In a clip from Trump’s past State of the Union address, Pelosi stands behind Trump as he takes in the applause from the crowd, ripping up a copy of his address.

“This was not an impromptu action that Nancy Pelosi took. This was not something that she did in the heat of the moment. This was not an unscripted emotional outburst. This was something Nancy Pelosi deliberately planned to do, knowing that it would be broadcast in the background internationally,” Wheeler explains.

“This was her response to President Trump. Nothing of substance, no alternative vision, just ripping him up,” she says, pointing out that the Democrats aren’t the only party to have had a politician throw a tantrum at a State of the Union address.

“When Barack Obama was president and he was attempting to debunk a Republican talking about Obamacare … Representative Joe Wilson, in, I think … the first public heckling of a president during the State of the Union address, shouted from the floor of Congress ‘You lie!’ at Barack Obama in 2009,” Wheeler explains.

Wheeler points out that in the video of Obama being heckled by Wilson, Pelosi’s “jaw actually drops.”

“‘You lie’ wins our silver medal for top moments from past State of the Union addresses. And coming in third, the bronze medal, we have to give to Marco Rubio,” she says.

This bronze medal is in honor of Rubio’s “very first meme.”

“This was back in 2013, so over a decade ago, he gave the Republican rebuttal to President Obama,” Wheeler says.

In his rebuttal, Rubio is clearly thirsty and awkwardly bends down to take a swig from a tiny water bottle.

“And that, of course, that moment eclipsed anything else that the president said or didn’t say,” Wheeler adds.

Four people were stabbed and killed at a home where an elderly woman had tried to obtain a domestic violence protective order against her son.

Washington state police responded to a report that a 32-year-old man was violating a protective order on Tuesday when they realized the order had never been served, according to the Pierce County Sheriff’s Office.

The woman said her son was suffering from ‘grandiosity, auditory hallucinations, and command hallucinations.’

They rushed to serve the order against him, but as they were on the way, other calls came in about a man stabbing people at the same address near Tacoma. When they arrived, they found that he had allegedly stabbed four people, who later died.

Police then shot and killed the man. He was declared dead at the scene.

KING-TV reported that people had been stabbed in the back yard of the home as well as in the front street.

Records show that the woman at the address had sought a protective order against her son on the basis that he had mental health and substance abuse issues, and had pushed her. He also made a threat to her after saying her “grave has been already dug up.”

The woman wrote that he had been doing “witchcraft/occult behavior and doing rituals” at her home, as well as “damaging personal belongings” and hurting her cat.

“I am an elderly disabled woman, and he is taking advantage of me and my health,” she added.

The son did not appear before court, and she was granted the protective order, which restricted him from being within 1,000 feet of her and ordered him to comply with a mental health plan. However, he wasn’t served the order, and WDIV-TV reported that it was unclear why he wasn’t served.

The woman said her son was suffering from “grandiosity, auditory hallucinations, and command hallucinations,” which were worsening.

Authorities have not yet released the names of the people killed or of the man killed by deputies.

A neighbor in the area described what he witnessed.

“All of a sudden, I just heard, like, a series of gunshots. You could really hear it echoing through the trees,” Chris Cardenas said.

He said he saw ambulances and dozens of police cars at the scene of the crime, which he described as tragic.

A major philosophical shift is under way inside the U.S. Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division — and much of it is thanks to Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon.

Dhillon tells BlazeTV hosts Christopher Rufo and Jonathan “Lomez” Keeperman on “Rufo & Lomez” how she’s moving the agency away from diversity, equity, and inclusion-driven enforcement and toward a return to colorblind equality under the law.

“You’re bringing a totally different theory of civil rights law to the Department of Justice,” Rufo tells Dhillon. “This can’t be easy.”

“It is a very daunting task and, frankly, when I raised my hand in response to the president’s request to do this job, I knew it was going to be one of the more difficult jobs here in the DOJ because historically the Civil Rights Division has been a place that doesn’t really change very much from administration to administration,” Dhillon says.

The reason, Dhillon explains, is that “the lawyers who choose to make their careers doing civil rights work typically, historically, have been from a leftist perspective.”

“And that isn’t necessarily bad. I mean, there was a point in time in our country when we passed a lot of these civil rights laws in the 1960s, where we had rampant discrimination against African-Americans and other people and even against women to a degree,” she tells Rufo and Lomez.

“But way past the time that many of these historical ills have been corrected by our society, with or without the intervention of the Civil Rights Division, people have viewed it as their mission to continue to push the boundaries further and further out to the left,” she says.

This has posed one of the biggest issues for Dhillon in her war against DEI.

“The truism from the Reagan era is that personnel is policy. And so one of the biggest challenges we had here was, how are we going to implement the president’s agenda with personnel who don’t want to do that,” she explains.

“I actually had … a relatively smooth transition into our mission because early on … I issued memos to all the different sections here in the Civil Rights Division … letting them know that we are going to be changing our focus here to implementing the president’s agenda, consistent with the civil rights statutes in the Constitution,” she continues.

“And that simple step, sometimes just one or two paragraphs of a memo to a few dozen lawyers, caused more than half of them to quit right away,” she adds.

Then, when an early retirement program at the DOJ was implemented, another several dozen took advantage of the program and quit.

“We were down about two-thirds of the manpower here in the Civil Rights Division. And so, then the challenge became how to do the big job of rightsizing our civil rights agenda and making it consistent with the president’s agenda,” she explains.

While she admits that it was difficult at the outset, she’s “happy to say that we’ve gotten past all of that.”

“We’ve hired a bunch of great people, young and old, here in the Civil Rights Division, who are very willing to work with us in doing the work that you’ve seen in the headlines,” she adds.
