EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Hammond deputies beat rap singer Charles “Interstate Tax” Toney to pulp in East Ridge, lacing their thumpings with profanities. Mr. Toney and his attorney, Lee Merritt, are demanding that all charges against Mr. Toney from the arrest encounter (assault, for example) be dropped and that Blake Kilpatrick, a detective, be fired.
