More alleged shady details emerge about men in Paul ‘BizNasty’ Bissonnette assault

Article content

Who would’ve thought one steakhouse brawl would lead to so much dirt being uncovered?

After being a victim of an alleged assault by six men at a Scottsdale, Ariz., steakhouse last week, Paul ‘BizNasty’ Bissonnette vowed to “do everything (he) can to ruin these f***s” involved in the incident.

One man on X seems to be doing just that, exposing the six men in the incident as alleged scam artists and members of a larger group of “Irish Travellers.”

Shea Stevens, who began digging into the lives of the six men arrested in connection with the attack on the former NHLer, posted a thread on X in which he details some of the shady operations the group allegedly is involved in.

“When I started digging into these guys, my interest was piqued by the huge number of paving and construction businesses tied to them. These businesses have piles of complaints about scams and shady work. After the (alleged) assault, their X accounts popped up online,” Stevens wrote Sunday.

“Instead of denying it, they were bragging about the assault — like they were proud of it. Then they shut down those accounts.”

Stevens says that the group is using “burner” accounts to contact him and do “damage control” on the situation.

“But now they’re still creeping on burners (hey boys). It’s clear they’re trying to do damage control and stop the heat,” he posted.

“Digging into their businesses, I noticed they really don’t care about bad reviews or being called out. Why? Because a lot of their listed business addresses are fake. They use addresses of people not even involved in their scams.”

Stevens then pointed out that the men had made posts flaunting lavish trips before deleting the accounts.

“Their whole M.O. is travelling town to town, hitting people and suppliers with sketchy contracts and scams at the door. And it’s not small-time. These guys were flaunting Pebble Beach trips, the Super Bowl, and Italian vacations before they went dark,” Stevens wrote.

The reason for the men deleting the account, Stevens reports, is that they are part of a larger group of “Irish Travellers,” known for scams and shady dealings.”

“The Travellers are pros at walking the line between criminal and civil liability,” he posted. “They know just how to avoid real consequences. By the time the cops or courts are onto them, they’re already in a new town, setting up the next scam.”

Stevens had posted the video last week of what appeared to be a member of the group attacking an employee at a Phoenix golf club before the incident at the restaurant.

He noted in his thread that police are investigating the incident and any connection to the brawl involving Bissonnette.

“Scottsdale PD is still investigating if their assault on Biz connects to this attack earlier that day at a Golf Club in Phoenix,” he said.

The man seen attacking the staff member at the golf club appears to be Danny Bradley, who was wearing a similar green shirt in his mugshot to the one that the man in the clip is sporting.

Another one of the accused, Sean Daley, apparently fled the scene of the fight with Bissonnette and was only arrested after being tracked down his hotel by police, according to court documents.

Daley also provided police with an allegedly false home address — an industrial lot linked to one of his businesses. He also was found carrying a fraudulent military ID after the incident at a steakhouse on Sunday night.

While all six accused of the attack are facing aggravated assault and misdemeanour charges, Daley is also charged with forgery.

Another man, William J. Carroll, has been booked on two misdemeanour counts each of assault and disorderly conduct, according to reports.

According to court documents viewed by KTVK and CBS affiliate KPHO in Phoenix, police found a military ID in Daley’s possession that appeared to be fake. When officers questioned him about it, Daley allegedly admitted it was fraudulent but did not go into further detail about the ID.

Daley is alleged to have held Bissonnette to the ground and kicked the Spittin Chiclets podcaster in the neck and head area, according to court documents.

The court records also said Daley had tried to kick Bissonnette again but “missed and fell backwards,” allowing ‘BizNasty’ a chance to retreat to a nearby business, which Bissonnette later identified on his podcast as a CVS.

Bissonnette detailed his account of the incident on the podcast earlier this week.

He said the incident started when he and others in the packed restaurant were distracted by a noisy incident in the bar area of the restaurant. In Bissonnette’s words, things began to escalate and caused the former Phoenix Coyotes tough guy to intervene.
