A man who was seen beating family members in the viral video of a fight at Disneyland in July pleaded guilty today and immediately was sentenced to six months in jail. Two others involved in the brawl failed to appear for their court date in Fullerton, and warrants have been issued for their arrest.

He originally faced five felony charges and nine misdemeanors over the fight at the Anaheim park.

The trio involved in a virally viewed fight at Disneyland earlier this month are now facing a TKO of child endangerment felony charges and misdemeanors that could see them in jail for years. “The Orange County District Attorney ’s Office does not tolerate domestic violence or child endangerment anywhere,” said Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer today as the criminal charges were announced stemming from the July 6 incident in Toon Town.

Officers were called to the theme park Saturday to help break up the fight involving four family members in Mickey’s Toontown, according to Anaheim Police Department Sgt. Daron Wyatt. By the time police arrived, the family members had stopped fighting and officers simply made a report. “They were all uncooperative and didn’t want anything done, and we didn’t have the luxury of viewing the video at that time, so we wrote a report,” Wyatt stated.

The Sacklers of OxyContin infamy have become indelibly tied to the opioid crisis in America. But the truth is they were far from the only contributors to a drug epidemic that has claimed hundreds of thousands of lives in recent years. Take Chris and Jeff George, for instance. The steroid-jacked twin brothers opened their first pain medication storefront in Florida in 2007 and before long, as they put it, “We were the Disneyland of pain clinics.” Their exploits are told in the CNN Films documentary American Pain , directed by Darren Foster , which premieres on CNN tonight. “The George brothers did not start the opioid crisis,” retired FBI agent Kurt McKenzie notes in the film. “But they sure as hell poured gasoline on the fire.” Foster, an Emmy-winning filmmaker, first crossed paths with the Georges more than a decade ago. “In 2009 I went down to Florida to report on the pill mills. One pain clinic had a reputation above all the others as being the biggest, the … [Read more...] about ‘American Pain,’ Premiering on CNN Tonight, Documents Twin Brothers Who Became Florida’s Opioid Kingpins
