Al Sharpton Ex-Wife and Daughter Gets Arrested

Civil rights leader Reverend Al Sharpton has taken to the internet to blast New York police after his ex-wife and oldest daughter were arrested in the city on Friday.

Kathy Jordan, 53, and her 23-year-old daughter Dominique were pulled over in Harlem for allegedly speeding through a red light to pass a police car. The pair was taken into custody after an argument erupted with authorities over attempts to issue a summons for the traffic violation. They were subsequently charged with resisting arrest.

The incident has left Sharpton seething - and he has gone online to vent his anger at the way cops handled the situation.

In a series of posts on his Twitter.com page, he writes, "I cannot imagine how two unarmed women with no record could be taken in cuffs from a traffic dispute with NO personal or property damage involved. Well this is what we deal with every day. We will never accept unfairness. (There was) no drugs or drinking at all."

Sharpton and Jordan separated in 2004 after 23 years together. The ex-couple also shares a 22-year-old daughter, Ashley.

They couldn't just take the ticket and settle it in front of a traffic judge

Rev Al's Daughter Tells Him to Back Off
The Rev. Al Sharpton won’t be throwing his weight behind his daughter’s fight against the NYPD.

Dominique Sharpton, 23, who was arrested with her mother Friday night after a traffic violation in Harlem asked her famously fiery father to “stay out” of her upcoming trials and tribulations, Rev. Al wrote on his Twitter page Sunday.

“I met with them and the attorney after the rally yesterday [Saturday] and was told to stay out of it,” Sharpton tweeted. “Dominique is grown and certainly can handle herself.”

He said Dominique’s mother, Kathy Jordon, “showed the concern any mother would show.”

A spokeswoman for Sharpton said Dominique wants to show that there the younger generation can handle leadership.

"She asked her to Dad to let her handle it to show her maturity and to signal that she didn't need him to intervene on her behalf," Rachel Noerdlinger told NBC New York. "Almost like 'I'm grown Dad, I got this.'"

Kathy Jordan, 53 and daughter Dominique, allegedly sped through a light on Eighth Ave. uptown on Friday, and were immediately pulled over by cops, who began writing the women tickets for the violation -- but the Rev's ladies weren't having any of it.

Jordan and her daughter reportedly got increasingly aggressive with the officers, who slapped the two with charges disorderly conduct and obstruction of governmental administration.
