Oklahoma woman slips out of cuffs and shoots officer with his AR 15

An Oklahoma police officer was shot by a woman who had been detained in the back of his patrol car, after she freed herself from her handcuffs and took possession of the officer's semi-automatic rifle. The police officers had arrived at the residence of Rachel Clay for a welfare check, as per local news outlet KWTV-TV. Clay was behaving erratically and had to be detained in a police car. Video footage from inside the vehicle showed Clay alone in the backseat, attempting to free herself from the handcuffs. Eventually, she succeeded in freeing one of her hands, reached through the partition between the front and back seats, grabbed the officer's AR-15, and started shooting. Reports indicate that she fired 10 shots, injuring a civilian and a deputy. The Grady County Sheriff's Office confirmed that one officer was wounded with non-life-threatening injuries. Clay was arrested after a three-hour standoff in the car and charged with shooting with intent to kill. She is being held under a $1 million bond. According to ABC-7, Clay tested positive for methamphetamines, and court documents cited by KFor, an Oklahoma news site, revealed that she has a history of mental illness and is currently unmedicated. Grady County Undersheriff Gary Boggess called the incident a "freak deal," adding that the authorities are examining ways to prevent it from happening again.

9/11 families condemn Trump for hosting Saudi-funded LIV golf tournament at his NJ club

Former President Donald Trump has come under criticism from families and survivors of the 9/11 terrorist attacks for hosting an upcoming tournament for the Saudi-funded LIV golf league at his Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, N.J. The group 9/11 Justice has expressed "deep pain and anger" in a letter to Trump, highlighting moments where the former president assigned blame to Saudi Arabia for the attacks that killed 2,977 people in 2001. Trump's decision to host the tournament for personal financial gain is incomprehensible to the group, given that 15 of the 19 attackers were Saudi citizens and terrorist mastermind Osama Bin Laden was born in the country. The LIV tournament, which has made headlines for attracting big names like Phil Mickelson and Dustin Johnson, will take place in July at the Bedminster course. Trump's Miami course is scheduled to host a LIV championship tournament in late October. The PGA Tour suspended players who joined LIV, and the U.S. Department of Justice is reportedly investigating the Tour for potentially anti-competitive behavior against LIV. The LIV tournament is not the first Saudi business dealing connected to Trump. Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law and former White House advisor, secured a $2 billion investment from the Saudis' sovereign investment fund for his private equity firm. 9/11 Justice has protested the LIV tournament hosted at the Pumpkin Ridge course in Portland, Oregon, and more stateside tournaments are scheduled for the fall in Boston, Chicago, and a team championship hosted at Trump's Doral course in Miami. Meanwhile, the group has also sent a letter to President Joe Biden demanding that he holds the Saudi government accountable for the attacks.

Teen fatally shoots twin brother in face while playing with gun

According to local news outlets, a Georgia teenager died after being shot by his twin brother while playing with a gun. The incident occurred at around 3:30 a.m. on August 22, at their home in Stone Mountain, as reported by the DeKalb County Police Department. The brothers, who were both 17 years old, were playing with a gun in their bedroom when it went off, hitting one of them in the face. The injured brother was taken to a hospital where he later died from his injuries. It's unclear who the gun belonged to and authorities haven't provided further information about the incident. Although the shooting is believed to be accidental, the surviving twin may face manslaughter charges, according to reports by WGCL and WXIA. Stone Mountain is located about 15 miles northeast of downtown Atlanta.

Houston woman says she was poisoned after touching napkin on her car, her story goes viral

On her birthday, Erin Mims and her husband were leaving a restaurant in Houston when she noticed a napkin wedged in the passenger door handle of their car. She removed it, but later noticed that the fingers she used to open the door were tingling. Soon after, she began experiencing more severe symptoms including numbness, difficulty breathing, chest pains, and a racing heartbeat. Her husband rushed her to the hospital, where doctors found evidence of acute poisoning from an unknown substance in her system. Her doctor even suggested that it sounded like a failed kidnap attempt. Mims shared her experience on social media, and her post went viral. While some comments suggested that she was suffering from a panic attack, others claimed similar scenarios had happened to them. Poison control experts say that her symptoms match hundreds of different poisons, but her exposure would be considered minimal. Mims is urging others to be careful, and the local hair salon owner filed an assault report with the Houston Police Department. The restaurant has not responded to requests for comment.

GBI investigating West Point officer accused of saying N-word on doorbell camera

A police officer from West Point is being investigated for alleged misconduct following a complaint, according to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. The complaint comes from a homeowner who claims that Ring doorbell camera footage shows the officer using racial slurs and throwing the camera into the bushes. The video has been shared numerous times on social media.

Tomeshia Madden, the homeowner, says that she and her teenage son no longer feel comfortable living in West Point after hearing what the officer said outside their house. They are now seeking a new city to live in.

The Ring doorbell video, which is approximately two minutes long, shows two West Point police officers arriving at the home. The first officer appears to be waiting for someone to answer the door, while the second walks up and says something unintelligible, according to the GBI.

Madden says she heard the officer say "all these f-ing n**s have cameras in this neighborhood." She claims the officer then threw the camera into the bushes, allegedly attempting to conceal evidence.

Madden and her attorney, Wendell Major, believe that the officer's actions erode the community's trust in law enforcement. "It is not appropriate for public officials to make racially derogatory terms during their duties," Major said. He added that the officer, in uniform, concealed evidence of what happened.

The West Point Police Department confirmed that the officer is one of their own but declined to comment further while the GBI investigates. The officer has been placed on administrative leave while the investigation is ongoing. Once complete, the case file will be handed over to the Coweta Judicial Circuit District Attorney’s office for review.

Former Trump administration adviser says she found classified documents in ladies’ room

A former Trump administration staffer, Olivia Troye, revealed on MSNBC that she once found classified documents in a ladies' room in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building during the former President's tenure. Troye, who served as a counterterrorism adviser in the Department of Homeland Security and in the office of Vice President Mike Pence, reported the discovery to security after covering up the document and placing it in an unmarked folder. According to her, such security breaches were not uncommon in the Trump administration, with documents often carried around without proper pouches for secure storage.

This revelation comes in the wake of a recent FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago, where documents of multiple classification levels were reportedly discovered. Prior to the raid, photos were released showing fragments of presidential documents floating in toilets. Trump and his allies have been struggling to explain the presence of these documents at his property despite previous negotiations with the FBI to hand them over, including under subpoena. Their explanations range from claims that the documents were planted to claims that they were not sensitive or had already been declassified. None of these claims are backed by evidence and some blatantly disregard the legal requirements imposed on those who handle classified and secret government information. Troye has since become an outspoken critic of the former president and his administration and has testified before the 6 January select committee.

Trump Supporters descend on Mar A Lago to protest FBI raid

Donald Trump Jr. took to Twitter to criticize the Department of Justice (DOJ) under President Biden, accusing it of targeting political enemies, similar to the actions of third-world countries. Trump Jr.'s remarks came as his family tried to portray a search of Mar-a-Lago as part of a Democratic effort to prevent Donald Trump from winning another term in 2024.

The search in question was related to the former president taking classified documents from the White House to his residence in Florida after his presidency ended. The National Archives and Records Administration discovered classified material in 15 boxes at the residence, leading to an investigation by the DOJ.

Representative Carolyn B. Maloney of New York, the Chairwoman of the investigation, said that former presidents have a duty to protect America's national security and that allegations of mishandling classified information should be scrutinized. However, Trump and his allies have accused the Biden administration of instigating the search, despite the fact that FBI Director Christopher Wray was appointed by Trump and previously worked in a Republican-led Justice Department.

Eric Trump stated that the boxes containing documents were moved from the White House on Inauguration Day, along with other items, and that they ended up at Mar-a-Lago. The Trump family has criticized the unannounced search, with Donald Trump referring to the raid as unnecessary and inappropriate.

Federal law prohibits the removal of classified documents to unauthorized locations and the mishandling of such records, with penalties of up to five years in prison. Although Trump could argue that he had the authority to declassify information as president, the removal of documents to his residence after his presidency ended could still be considered a violation of federal law.

911 Call Sheds Light on Dispute Between Rep. Lauren Boebert's Husband And Neighbors

A pickup truck incident involving the husband of Colorado Representative Lauren Boebert prompted a neighbor to call 911. The caller identified the driver as "Lauren Boebert's jacka*** husband, Jayson," and reported him for running over their mailbox. The dispute started after the couple's son allegedly drove a dune buggy at high speed on their 25 mph street. The neighbor expressed his frustration with Jayson Boebert's irrational behavior and warned the dispatcher that the family is wealthy and heavily armed.

Boebert is a staunch supporter of former President Donald Trump and a far-right Republican who infamously heckled President Joe Biden during his State of the Union speech. She condemned the FBI after the agency seized classified documents from Mar-a-Lago last week. A joint Homeland Security-FBI bulletin warns of increased threats against federal officials, including a threat to detonate a dirty bomb in front of FBI headquarters and calls for civil war and armed rebellion. On "Face the Nation," former FBI agent and Republican Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick expressed concern about the safety of law enforcement officers, citing a notification he received from the bureau about a threat to his life.

Man who was at Capitol on Jan. 6 is fatally shot after firing into an FBI field office

Officials have identified the man who was shot and killed by officers after firing a nail gun into an FBI field office in Cincinnati on Thursday. Two officials who are familiar with the matter say the suspect was Ricky Walter Shiffer, and he had been present at the U.S. Capitol on January 6. Shiffer had reportedly posted about his desire to kill FBI agents following the search of former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence. The motive for the attack is still under investigation, and it's unclear whether he fired the nail gun or who fired the fatal shot. No officers were injured. The FBI Director Christopher Wray condemned the violence against law enforcement and called for respect for the rule of law. Since the search of Trump's home, there has been a rise in threats against FBI personnel and facilities on social media platforms.

Georgia Deputy Police Chief Busted In Prostitution Sting With $180, Pack Of White Claw

A Georgia deputy police chief has been arrested for soliciting prostitution in Florida after being caught in an undercover sting operation, according to authorities. Jason DiPrima, the Cartersville Deputy Police Chief, was attending a polygraph training workshop in Orlando when he responded to an online escort advertisement. The advertisement was part of a week-long undercover operation by the Polk County Sheriff's Department to identify people involved in human trafficking and to arrest those who engage in prostitution. DiPrima initiated a conversation with an undercover detective a day before his arrest and later agreed to pay $120 for a half-hour of "full service." He arrived at an undisclosed location in an undercover police cruiser normally assigned to U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration agents, gave the detective $180 and a multi-pack of White Claw Hard Seltzer, and was then arrested. Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd expressed disbelief at DiPrima's actions and noted that before the arrest, the deputy police chief had told the detective he had been conned by a prostitute the previous night. DiPrima has been placed on administrative leave by the Cartersville Police Department pending an internal investigation.

On January 1st, 2023, Illinois jails will turn many prisoners loose

Illinois will eliminate its cash bail system on January 1st, 2023, under a new criminal justice reform law. Certain felony suspects, including those charged with second-degree murder, aggravated battery, and arson, will be released without bail, freeing approximately 400 criminal defendants into communities across the state. The Pretrial Fairness Act is part of a larger police reform initiative known as House Bill 163.

The act aims to free certain criminal offenders who cannot afford bond and must wait in jail for their court date. Advocates of the law argue that cash bail is a pillar of institutional racism within the criminal justice system. Instead of bail, judges will issue pre-trial release conditions for offenders, which local pastors have been pushing to improve the criminal justice system. However, opponents of the law say it prohibits judges from considering each case on its own merits and applying the law accordingly.

Additionally, the law restricts which crimes a person can be arrested for and frees those in custody for 12 offenses, including second-degree murder, aggravated battery, and arson, without bail. Meanwhile, Republicans are calling for stricter sentencing for violent offenders and the repeal of certain parts of the SAFE-T Act. Law enforcement agencies across the state are opposing the law's passage, and gubernatorial candidate Darren Bailey (R) promised to repeal the law if elected. Illinois is the first state in the country to completely abolish cash bail.

Woman raped twice after Louisiana deputies sent her undercover in unmonitored drug deal

A female informant working with law enforcement to buy drugs from a known dealer, in Mississippi, was sexually assaulted by the dealer in Louisiana in January 2021. During the attack, the woman was not monitored by law enforcement and had only passive recording devices. The police did not consider such an attack and could not transmit the operation in real-time to their monitoring station. The woman was later found to have been sexually assaulted and forced to perform oral sex on the dealer. Her assailant was arrested and charged with second-degree rape, false imprisonment, and distribution of methamphetamine. The case highlights the dangers that confidential informants face and the perils of working off criminal charges in these arrangements. The case also highlights the vast disparities in law enforcement's undercover playbook, with many agencies lacking the resources to properly train officers or monitor informant drug buys. The case prompted the department to update its equipment to monitor transactions in real-time.

Dallas Youth Softball program raffles AR-15-style gun after Florida school shooting

A softball program in Dallas is facing criticism for holding a fundraising raffle for a semiautomatic AR-15 rifle. The Lady Dragons fast-pitch softball program, which is not affiliated with the school district, is raising money for equipment, field improvements, and keeping registration fees low. The raffle for the rifle will take place on April 4th, with tickets priced at $25. The program has stated that the winner of the raffle will have to pass background checks and that the rifle was donated by a private donor. Some residents have called the fundraiser tone-deaf and inappropriate, especially in the aftermath of the Parkland, Florida, school shooting. The program board members who approved the fundraiser have been criticized for their decision, which has caused division in the community. Despite the criticism, the softball program has stated that the raffle is legal and well-regulated and has been used successfully by similar sports organizations in the past.

Senator Anna M. Kaplan (D-North Hills) issued a statement condemning the use of a Nazi-like salute at recent rallies held by former President Donald Trump and Republican Gubernatorial Candidate Doug Mastriano of Pennsylvania.

Senator Kaplan emphasized the importance of learning about the Holocaust to prevent repeating the darkest chapter in history. The use of Nazi symbolism and imagery in political events is unacceptable, and Senator Kaplan calls on all Americans to join her in denouncing it.

6-year-old Hamilton girl escapes kidnapping attempt in front of her home

A 6-year-old girl has spoken out after narrowly escaping an attempted kidnapping outside her Hamilton home. The young girl was taking out the trash when a man suddenly grabbed her and attempted to take her away. The incident was captured on a doorbell camera at the family home, and police later arrested 33-year-old Deric McPherson on charges of abduction and inappropriate grabbing.

The girl recounted the terrifying experience to ABC News, explaining how she screamed when the man grabbed her, which she thinks caused him to let go. Her father drove off to follow the perpetrator and called the police. The family credits the girl's smart response and ability to fight off her attacker as the reason she was able to escape unharmed.

Child advocates Callahan Walsh from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children praised the girl's actions, noting that in more than 83% of cases where a child prevents an abduction, it's due to their proactive response. The family is understandably shaken by the incident but relieved that their daughter is safe.

A man loses a Basketball Game to a Woman. Returns to Shoot her 5 times after he Loses.

According to Fox 4 News, a 21-year-old woman named Asia Womack from Dallas was allegedly shot by a friend who was upset after losing a basketball game, and she has passed away. The shooting occurred at a park near Womack’s home on Monday.

The shooter is said to have taken his kids and brother home after losing the pickup game against Womack. He then returned to the park and reportedly shot her five times.

“This is so senseless,” said Pastor John Delley to Fox 4 News. “You become embarrassed because a female beat you in basketball.”

Andrea Womack, Asia’s mother, revealed that her daughter had a close relationship with the shooter.

“This was supposed to be a friend of Asia’s. She’s eaten with the man,” Andrea said. “She’s fed him, and he turned on her and killed her in a vicious way.”

Dallas police are examining footage from a store near the park but have not arrested anyone yet.

“If you know where he is, where his whereabouts are, please turn him in,” Andrea urged. “Help the family out. We’re hurting.”

Gunman sets fire to homes and opens fire on fleeing victims

According to authorities, a gunman ignited a series of fires in Houston homes during the early hours of Sunday morning and then proceeded to shoot at victims as they attempted to flee from the flames. The attack was carried out in ambush-style, resulting in the deaths of three individuals, before the perpetrator was killed by police.

The incident occurred at approximately 1 am on Dunlap Street in the southwest region of Houston, catching residents off-guard as they slept soundly in their homes. Houston Police have reported that the suspect, a Black male in his 40s who was allegedly evicted from the building, set fire to multiple residences to draw victims outside.

The assailant then hid in the darkness, dressed entirely in black attire and armed with a shotgun. As frightened residents escaped the burning buildings, the shooter took aim and opened fire on them.

SuperSpar, the supermarket where the incident took place, suspended the employee and cooperated with the authorities in their investigation.
