Chille DeCastro DENIED Virtual Hearing In Oklahoma Court Case

In a significant blow to Jose “Chille” DeCastro’s attempts to avoid a warrant out of Oklahoma for charges of molesting police vehicles while fighting those same charges administratively, the Oklahoma court that is set to hear DeCastro’s motions ruled that he could not attend the hearing set for Wednesday via telephone or via the internet.

DeCastro had responded to the Court’s setting of a hearing for June 3, with a motion to attend the hearing electronically. He stated that traveling to attend the hearing in person would be a financial burden that he had no time to prepare for in the 13 days between the issuance of the notice of the hearing and the actual hearing itself.

The inventor of the Jock Sock argued:

The Notice setting the June 3, 2026 hearing was issued on May 21, 2026. The interval between the Notice and the hearing date is short. Arranging out-of-state travel on this limited notice imposes significant financial and logistical hardship upon Defendant.

Appearance by videoconference would allow Defendant to participate fully in the hearing, to be seen and heard by the Court, and to present argument on his pending motions, without the hardship and expense of cross-country travel. Remote appearance would allow the matter to proceed without delay while preserving Defendant’s ability to participate fully.

Defendant is not presently in custody and voluntarily requests leave to appear remotely while remaining fully available to the Court.

Remote appearance is routinely permitted for out-of-state and pro se litigants, particularly in misdemeanor matters and where proceedings concerning Defendant’s pending motions remain ongoing. Permitting Defendant to appear by videoconference serves judicial economy and does not prejudice the State.

Defendant is prepared to appear by videoconference on June 3, 2026, or on any later date the Court may set, using any platform and any technical procedures the Court directs. Defendant will make himself available at the date and time the Court designates.

In her denial of his request, Judge Carrie Hixon wrote:

Defendant was charged by Information on December 10, 2025 and an arrest warrant was issued by the Court on that date.

As of today’s date, this arrest warrant remains outstanding as the Defendant has yet to be arrested or submit himself to the personal jurisdiction of this Court.

Since the Defendant has never personally appeared before this Court for arraignment, the Defendant’s identity has never been affirmatively confirmed by this Court and this Court is without sufficient means to ensure the person who appears by telephone or video is, in fact, the Defendant charged in the above styled cause.

Observers note that DeCastro was unlikely to prevail in his motions to have the three charges of molesting a police vehicle dropped by the court. With no real chance of prevailing, the YouTuber will likely skip the hearing and not run the chance of being apprehended on the outstanding warrants.

Oklahoma has shown that it has no interest in extraditing the YouTuber, and the state is so far out of his normal travel range, that skipping the hearing and possibly picking up another warrant would unlikely impact his short-term livelihood.

DeCastro made no mention of the developments on his two livestreams on Monday where he doubled down on his anti-Israel rhetoric. DeCastro originally livestreamed in front of around 120 concurrent viewers in widescreen format, then switched to vertical format as he expected that it would bring in “thousands” of viewers. It did not. His average was around 260 concurrent viewers for the second broadcast.

His second livestream saw the diminutive YouTuber state that he did not hold antisemitic views despite staying that Isreal was a “disgusting country,” showing scorn for the Israeli government, how he hates anyone who would support Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

DeCastro assured his fans that despite his increasing use of anti-Jewish tropes, stereotypes and conspiracy theories, he was not “against his own bloodline” as he was “Sephardic Jew” on his father’s side of the family. DeCastro again explained that up until seven generations ago, his father’s family was Sephardic Jewish before converting to Catholicism and that he had no hatred for most Jewish people, only those he considered “Zionists.”

The failed Power Ranger’s second livestream focused on getting his viewers to call their Congresspersons and Senators to object to what he claimed was the permanent merging of the United States and Israeli armed forces through proposed 2027 National Defense Authorization Act.

He rallied against what he claimed to be the ability to have Israelis in command of United States troops and warned that there were Israelis who would then use those troops to attack United States citizens.

DeCastro then urged his audience to buy memberships to his channel to show “YouTube” that there was still an interest in his channel following his most recent suspension. He had previously complained that he had lost 600 paying subscribers during the two-week suspension that ended on Saturday.

The apparently cash strapped DeCastro received no help from his related GoFundMe campaigns. For the second straight day, only Roy Tripoloni’s campaign for James “James Freeman” Springer brought in new donations for the day. It raised $300.00 for the day, while goose eggs dominated the rest of the field.

DeCastro has a live stream scheduled for later today.
