Screech Was Arrested In Wisconsin The Day After Christmas For Carrying A Switchblade

Dustin Diamond, everybody’s favorite former Saved by the Bell cast member to hate, was arrested in Ozaukee County Wisconsin earlier this morning. You’re all probably wondering the same thing: What did he do this time? Did he venture into public indecency since the sex tape wasn’t raunchy enough? Another boxing match? A Saved by the Bell reunion featuring Screech only?

None of the above. Instead, Diamond was caught with a concealed weapon. According to Fox 6 News:

Maybe it’s because I’m an *sshole, from Texas, or both, but a switchblade? Really? Did he think Zach and Slater would be on hand to tell him how uncool carrying a switchblade is?

I’m curious to see how this plays out. Until then, I’ll have to settle for the most likely scenario: Screech wasting away in his county jail cell, thinking he’s receiving a severe talking-to from his high school friends. In reality, his cellmate Bubba eyes his every move.

I despise stupid articles like this, it's obvious that the buffoons at uproxx.com can't disinguish between Dustin Diamond and the character he played on the show. If he was booked under the name 'Screech' then I'll gladly delete my post.

This guy needs help.

What was the reason why he stabbed that man during a fight?

[RetroGuy2000]

According to CNN, the arrest was made after he stabbed a guy in a bar fight, attempting to defend his girlfriend.

I just can't believe it. Screech has a girlfriend?

[irehtman]

Dustin was trying to protect his girlfriend from attacks, so he was using the knife as self-defense against that offensive rude man.

Dustin is not the only SBTB alum having problems.

Lark Voorhies and Dennis Haskins are also having their own problems in the meantime.

According to news reports, he stabbed the guy, then he and his girlfriend fled the scene. Switchblades are illegal in Wisconsin, where the stabbing occurred. He apparently later claimed that he stabbed the guy with a pen, but the cops found a bloody switchblade on him.

I feel quite bad for Lark, who is clearly suffering from mental health issues (have you read the reviews of her books?), and poor Dennis Haskins is struggling with some weight problems.

But even with their problems, they aren't stabbing anyone.

The switchblade is probably a bigger weapon than a pen and stab wound on that other guy might be really small.

If he acted in self defense, I don't see a reason why he had to be arrested even if his weapon of choice was illegal. To me, you should go with what you have...especially if it is all that you have.

God bless you and him and his girlfriend always!!!

Those bad guys tricked him and they should be the ones to get convicted instead of him.

[irehtman]

If Dustin is found guilty, then we be better be careful about airing another reunion original class in random amount of public because his fans will still be angry to both the original class producers and writers infinitely.

I understand what's happening, but I might predict to go deep on this:

1.) He may have become a pervert right after he was accepted in the difficult original class in a hurry and then turned down badly too quick along the way back then.

2.) He did suffered both mental illness and nerve damage diagnoses after the Wedding In Las Vegas movie.

3.) He entered into the non-difficult New Class to gain respect and relief for better popularity rather than just bringing back all old fans from the difficult original class.

4.) He portrayed the Screech role in a more realistic action in the middle of the New Class series, although it should not be appraised too strongly along the way.

5.) He became a douche after the New Class ended in a rush.

6.) He got fabricated by a ghostwriter, which should be a real prostitute (either male or female).

7.) I agree that it is not right for him to bash the original cast members, but whoever should bashed instead should be both the original class producers and writers.

8.) This should be a good time to help him in low publicity starting right now.

You might think that he portrayed Screech well, but it looks that role, the original class and strict publicity may have made him uncomfortable.

What I am concerned most of the time is the level of difficulty that Dustin is having a hard time approaching on, not the age level.

I agree that Dustin needs help, but he should have gotten help ahead of time.

Dustin Diamond's attorney says he had "prior commitments…He has a very active calendar of appearances, comedy gigs and the like." PLUS: Mario Lopez tells Fallon: "My mullet was a little too aggressive."

Well I'm glad Lark isn't in this reunion this time.

The original class is underrated in America, but now it is overrated in this entire world.
