Former Carl Junction police officer Bradley McDaniel was arrested at the Jasper County Courts Building in Joplin today, according to a news release issued this evening by Jasper County Sheriff Randee Kaiser.
McDaniel, 55, is being held without bond in the Jasper County Detention Center, charged with assault on a special victim, a felony, in connection with an alleged attack on Joplin attorney Terence Prigmore during a November 12 child custody meeting.
McDaniel pleaded not guilty during his arraignment today. Judge Nicole Marie Carlton denied a request to set aside the arrest warrant and recused herself from the case following the arraignment. The case was transferred to Judge John Nicholas, who also recused himself.
Online court records indicate Judge Luke Boyer is currently the judge.

He assaulted a court appointed mediator. Not the mother’s, nor his attorney.
The court takes a dim view of such behavior.
Uncle Fester needs some anger management before he eventually shares a jail cell with Lurch, who won't be any Lilly!
55? Dude looks 70
Not agreeing with Mr. Bradley McDaniel's use of violence, but I have seen several Felons at least have bond, I am sure his attorney will be able to have a bond hearing and get something set. I think this does show how divorce and custody proceedings can become enflamed very quickly and requires both parties to have a give and take attitude. This situation should not diminish that good fathers should be given and have equal 50/50 Joint Custody and split equally the time with each parent, costs of health, dental, and misc. costs and that each parent pay and support the child while the child is with them - which means there should be No Child Support needed, both parties need to work and both parties split the bills - No Favoritism or Biases by the Courts - Everything Equal.
Joint Custody use to be every other Wednesday and every other Weekend - and Alternating Holidays, meaning the Father only had the Child 3-4 Days out of 14-Days and Child Support on top of that - TOTALY UNFAIR - Know if either Party cannot have the Child for 50/50 of the Time - then that Party should pay Child Support to the other Party - - If women want Equality then they need to share with the Fathers 50/50 and vice versa - This would be fair to the Children and the Parents - So why can't the Courts understand this simple philosophy - There should only be Child Support if one of the Parents cannot provide to be or give the Children 50/50 Joint Custody including Time and other expenses to be with the Children - - Let's start being Fair to the Good Fathers - that want to be there for their Children and not try to alienate them from the Child's Life - Father's can raise Children as well as Mothers - Stop Forcing this Outdated Farce on Father's and making them Pay Child Support and then Not letting them spend 50/50 Time with their Children. This is not the 1940's. Wake up Judges, Attorneys, Mediators, and all you Women - Good Men want to be allowed to Raise and Spend Equal Time with their Children and not have to Pay You for the Privilege.
Good, can’t wait for all the angry men’s rights advocates to get in here and cry more like the other post on this. Too emotional fellas.
7:03, When it comes to our children, Karen, and paying money to support a corrupt and bias legal system where there is no accountability for the other parent to spend child support on whatever they want - You are damn right we are going to start pushing our rights. So take a "F"lying leap and shut up.
If Missouri is a true 50/50 Joint Custody State, then Good Fathers should be getting Joint Custody all the time 50/50 Time, not 3-4 days out of 14-days and then why should we pay Child Support since both parents would support the child while the child is with them and just split - health, dental, and misc. expenses - sounds fair - unless the courts and the feminine side have an issue with fairness - DO THEY???
One of my best friends growing up, the father had majority of custody, received child support from Mom. First time, I'd heard of a situation as such, buuuut I graduated in '09.... it really, honestly seems simply as who's willing to take out a big enough loan or fork out more money, gets the child and child support....
must've forgot he wasn't in uniform
There is not a bond because he punched a friend of all the judges. You can kill someone driving drunk and get a bond. God forbid an alleged victim is some attorney. Prigmore probably needed punched. There has only been one side of the narrative provided, as in most criminal cases. It will be interesting to learn what set McDaniel off.
It truly is a mystery why some relationships don't work out 🤡 🤡 🤡
It is not about fairness, it is about protecting children. A large percentage of men in this scenario have DV charges and therefor have no business caring for a child.
You 100% refer to women as “females” don’t you? It’s not always a system thing. It might just be a you thing.
Best comment I’ve seen “uncle fester”
For all of those out there, complaining about unequal parenting time, and/or child support here is a positive suggestion. The matter of custody of the children can easily be worked out by the two parents. The most logical way to equally divide 50/50 parental custody, would be by allowing the children to remain in the primary house and the parent’s move in and out. One week the mother would live full time with the children while the father lived at another location, possibly with a family member or friend. Then the mother would move out for a week while the father lived with the children. Neither parent would pay child support but both would pay equally on house payment/ rent, electricity, water and property taxes. Both would be responsible for their week of groceries for the children. The health insurance, deductibles, school/daycare expenses would be divided equally as would any school meals, clothing, toiletries and haircuts. Household rules must be written up, as to who may stay at the house, how the house must be maintained, cleaned, laundry done and rules for the children all must be agreed on by both parties and equally followed. A parenting plan can easily be set up by the parents prior to seeing a judge. Most judges would love to see two reasonable, responsible and mature adults make a parenting plan ahead of time. Especially if these two parents are willing to put their children first, ahead of their own personal pettiness. This can be done and has been done in numerous instances. But running the other parent down, involving children in adult issues and being too busy finger pointing and blaming the other parent for anything and everything they can, must be put aside. No one should stay in an unhealthy marriage/relationship. The children see all of this, feel the tension and go on to to blame theirselves. They also may marry for all the wrong reasons later in their lives while carrying all of their own baggage into their own relationships. Are there any adults out there who could do these necessary steps for the benefit of their children? Children would love remaining in one home, remaining near their friends, not having to constantly pack their overnight bags and enjoying the convenience, comfort of their own rooms. Yes, I do realize that if there is any physical, emotional or sexual abuse, or drug/alcohol abuse this would be a huge nullification of this entire conception. So, instead of complaining, find solutions. Be the bigger person by putting your own needs aside and focusing only on the children. A family counselor may also help by being a neutral party to setting up guidelines for the parents to follow.
He punched an officer of the court who was appointed to mediate the disagreement. He didn’t work for either parent. The legal community is small in this area, yes, they know him, he was assigned by the court.
