BOSTON (MyFoxBoston.com) – Two South Boston men have been arrested after allegedly urinating on and beating a homeless man at the JFK T Station.
Police say Scott J. Leader, 38, and Steve M. Leader, 30, came across the homeless man on the way home from the Red Sox game Tuesday night around midnight.
The brothers allegedly found the 58-year-old man in a sleeping bag then urinated on him, punched him several times and even hit him with a metal pole they found in the area.
Police say the brothers continued to cause a disturbance after being arrested. They allegedly exposed themselves, urinated in a holding cell, challenged state troopers to fight them and referred to the unidentified Hispanic victim as an “illegal immigrant.”
The Boston Globe reported that Leader told troopers, "Donald Trump was right, all these illegals need to be deported."
When asked what he thought about that statement, Trump said, "I haven't heard about that I think that would be a shame."
Both men are charged with
- Assault and Battery with a Dangerous Weapon (a pole);
- Assault and Battery with Dangerous Weapon (bodily fluid);
- Assault and Battery;
- Assault and Battery to Intimidate, with Bodily Injury;
- Open and Gross Lewdness;
- Indecent Exposure;
- Disorderly Conduct;
- Disturbing the Peace; and

Steve, the younger brother, is also charged with malicious destruction of property over $250.
