Stunned to wake up to this horrible news this morning. I did radio with Doc Thompson several times and he was always respectful, professional, and a pleasure to work with. Heartbroken for his family. https://t.co/5DbNJKxmW8— Brittany Pounders (@LibertyBritt) February 6, 2019

He ran the Daily Mojo radio show with his co-hosts Ron Phillips and Brad Staggs.
Train engineers saw the man on the tracks and they blew the horn. The man was wearing wireless headphones and may have not heard the train approaching.
Doc Thompson was married to Yuna Lee.
His wife Yuna Lee once worked for a Dayton station. She reported a false story about Obama supporters trashing a park. |
Lee was infamous for making a bogus claim about Barack Obama and Joe Biden's Dayton appearance during the 2012 presidential campaign. She made the claim that supporters trashed a local park after Obama and Biden made their speeches. That was not the case. Volunteers for the Obama for America campaign were cleaning up the park. I was a part of that.
The wait for Obama and Biden was nine hours. Getting there at 7am to wait til 4pm was hella long.
Lee knew that people were complaining about the heat and were offered water bottles. They were not allowed to bring water bottles and coolers to the park.
Thompson leaves behind three children and wife Yuna Lee.
The two resided in Texas.
The agitator was 49 years old.
