Man Charged With Assaulting Pregnant Girlfriend
April 19, 2012
A Century man is charged with assaulting his pregnant girlfriend in Pensacola.
Darryl Thomas Frazier, age 24 of Alger Road, was charged with aggravated battery on a pregnant woman, criminal mischief property damage and second degree petit theft.
He is accused of kicking in doors at his pregnant girlfriend’s residence on Burgess Road, punching her, slapping her and throwing her into a window frame. When she told him that she was going to call police, he told her that he did not care because he would bond out, but first he would take “collateral” from her, according to an Escambia County Sheriff’s Office arrest report.
Frazier allegedly took $18 in cash, a debit card and an iPod docking station from the victim.
Frazier was released from the Escambia County Jail on a $6,000 bond.

“The laws of this land are made up by men for men,”
Gripe, gripe, gripe.
Women outnumber men and fewer of them are convicted felons, so they can way outvote us. If you don’t like the system, you have the power to alter it. Since you are a major part of the system, I can only assume you approve. (You as a group, that is, not necessarily you as an individual.)
David for personal responsibility
Well obviously they didn’t charge him with domestic violence, which is what this case is,because ppl charged in domestic violence disputes usually recieve no bond.
The laws of this land are made up by me for men, regardless of the offense. This is why these offenders keep on getting arrested a being let go. I’ve watched all my life.
I am proud of this woman. Thank God she had sense enough to call the police and not let the abuse escalate- because it would’ve.
This young lady took the first step a huge step I pray she stays away from him cause this will not change.

“Why such a low bond?”
It’s always interesting when someone has been charged several times over the years but the prosecutors decided not to prosecute. There’s usually an interesting story behind that.
Nonetheless, bond isn’t set to punish a person who has not yet been convicted. It is set to make sure they show up for trial. The judge has discretion as to how much that might take. Some are released on their own word to show up, some have to cough up millions of dollars. It all depends on how trustworthy they convince the judge they are.
No bond is to be set if the defendant is considered a danger to others if released.
So again, my old buddy has had some interesting years to be in this situation.
David for decent people
and others changing into same
@softball, its not ECSO that sets the bond. Its the judges that he goes before thats sets the bond. ECSO did their job, they arrested him and housed him in jail. But what his bond is set at is out of their hands. The only thing they might have done different was give him different charges, but it is still up to a judge as to the final charges he will be charged with and bond.
It is strange that he got a bond for a domestic violence charge. I am confused on why this case is so important – meaning that there are so MANY of this type of crime happening in our city on a weekly basis.
Isn’t assault on someone who’s pregnant a felony? Why such a low bond?
Bonded out!?! This is whats wrong with our justice system!! Next we will read about the girlfriend and unborn child dying from another domestic violence attack! And ppl wonder why nobody has faith in our system! Way to go ESCO!
