A radio DJ is being suspended from Canton, Ohio station Q92 after he teased a woman with Down’s syndrome when she accidently called the station where he works.

Kellie Baker, 30, had been trying to call a friend but instead was greeted with DJ Mo’s taunting, which left her in tears.

According to the Daily Mail:

When she asked to speak to her friend, Kelly Ann Burkhart, DJ Mo said: ‘… I don’t want to come across – obviously you have some sort of speech impediment.’

Miss Baker said: ‘Uh… no, this is my voice’, before trying to cut off the conversation, saying: ‘Alright, never mind… I’ll see ya later, okay, bye.’

But the presenter urged her to stay on the line, saying: ”K – say it real slowly.’

Trying again to end the call, Miss Baker said: ‘Never mind, never mind,’ to which the mocking DJ replied: ‘No, say it real slowly. I want to try to figure this out. It’s a little game.’

Miss Baker apologized for dialling the wrong number when the presenter asked her if she realised that she had called a radio station. When he asked her if she knew who he was, Miss Baker said she didn’t, and the laughing DJ replied: ‘Okay, so I can laugh at you and you won’t know who to call and say you’re offended. Very good.’

DJ Mo has since apologized, but Miss Baker’s family is still outraged about the blatant bullying.

Miss Baker’s furious family claims that the conversation should have been checked before it was broadcast and insists it should never have gone on the air.

Miss Baker’s sister Kara Ball said: ‘He knows that she dialled the wrong number. This never needed to be aired, period.

Well, looks like somebody is getting what he deserves. Why do people insist on getting a few laughs at the expense of others?
