Tyson Gay's 15-Year-Old Daughter Shot And Killed In Unprovoked Senseless Act Of Violence

Trinity Gay

 

Trinity Gay, the beautiful 15-year-old daughter of well liked sprinter, Tyson Gay, was shot and killed in Lexington, Kentucky this past Sunday morning at a local restaurant. The teenager was the victim of an unprovoked act of violence on her part. As she innocently stood outside fast food restaurant the Cook Out at 4:00AM, two cars exchanged gunfire and Trinity was shot in the neck. The bullet likely sliced or severed her carotid artery (arteries) leading to exsanguination (and possible windpipe damage). She was rushed to the University of Kentucky hospital where she was pronounced dead.

Tyson Gay stated of the tragic incident, "She didn't make it. I'm so confused. She was just here last week for fall break. I have no idea what happened." My deepest condolences to Tyson Gay and his family. I'm sorry for your loss brother. It is a terrible tragedy and I am sorry it occurred. It's awful hearing about loss of life, especially when it is a very young person. People need to rally around the Gay family and help them through this difficult time.   

 

Tyson Gay and daughter Trinity Gay

The senseless gun violence continues to claim innocent lives in America, necessitating the need for gun control. This beautiful, promising young girl, who was also a sprinter, has lost her life through no fault of her own and for no valid reason. Congress needs to stop cowering to the gun lobbyists and protect the American people from violence.

Nations that instituted gun control saw a massive decline in shooting deaths. It is estimated that 30,000 Americans die each year from gun violence. So many people who should still be here are not because of gun violence. Something needs to be done on a legislative level to fix the problem.

The Cousin Of Basketball Star Dwyane Wade Killed In Gunfire While Pushing Baby Stroller

Nykea Aldridge
 

32-year-old mother of four, Nykea Aldridge, was shot to death while walking her baby in a stroller in Chicago, Illinois. Aldridge was shot in the head and arm, but her baby escaped injury. Aldridge is the cousin of basketball star, Dwyane Wade. A day prior to the shooting, Wade complained about the violence in his hometown. After the shooting Wade tweeted on Twitter, "My cousin was killed today in Chicago. Another act of senseless gun violence. 4 kids lost their mom for NO REASON. Unreal. #EnoughISEnough."

Darwin Sorrells Jr. and Derren Sorrells have been arrested as suspects in the fatal shooting

Aldridge was hit in crossfire between parolee brothers, Darwin Sorrells Jr., 26 and Derren Sorrells, 22 and a rival gang member. Chicago has one of the highest murder rates in America, largely due to gang violence. There is crime and violence around the world. However, when you identify a particular area in a nation with a significantly elevated level of crime, a task force is needed [which the Judiciary Report previously recommended in this column and the mayor later stated he would do Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel Asks For Resignation Of Police Chief After Laquan McDonald Shooting And Forms Task Force (Video)]. 

Dwyane Wade
 

As many raids and round ups as necessary until you get it right, to root out the problem. You can’t have criminals holding society hostage. So many innocent bystanders have been shot in Chicago. Most people in society are law abiding. To those who choose to do wrong, you have sent the message you wish to be locked up and so be it…

Chris Brown Sued Again Over 2014 Club Shooting

Chris Brown

R&B singer Chris Brown has been sued again over the 2014 night club shooting that occurred at 1OAK in Los Angeles, California. In June, Brown and fellow pre-VMA party host, Pia Mia, hosted an event at the night club that was attended by members of the public and celebrities, such as former Death Row CEO, Marion "Suge" Knight.

At the time one violent incident after another kept transpiring against Brown, who is affiliated with the bloods street gang, as is Knight, who is a full fledged member. Brown was actively being terrorized by the so-called Hollywood Illuminati, who hired thugs to provoke him as well as launch attacks against him in several incidents. For this reason he sought protection from the Bloods.

During Brown's prearranged appearance at 1OAK in 2014, he was followed to the event by thugs who opened fire with the intent to kill him. Knight was hit and subsequently hospitalized with bullet wounds. Knight refused to speak to police who pursued him for information on the shooting. Knight sued Brown, Pia Mia and 1OAK. Others were also shot in the incident. A member of the public who was shot at the event, Ginja Elms, has filed a $750,000 lawsuit against  Brown, Pia Mia and 1OAK.

John Hinckley Jr Freed After The Attempted Murder Of Former President Ronald Reagan (Video)

Criminally insane John Hinckley Jr., has been freed 35-years after the 1981 attempted murder of former U.S. President, Ronald Reagan, who had only been in office 69 days. Hinckley shot Reagan in the chest, after a bullet ricocheted off the presidential limo. Reagan suffered a punctured lung and internal bleeding.

 

Ronald Reagan assassination attempt by crazed John Hinckley Jr.

A bullet struck White House Press Secretary, James Brady, on the right side of his head. Brady was left paralyzed on the left side of his body. Brady died in 2014, with the coroner listing homicide from the assassination attempt as the cause of death. During the assassination attempt, Hinckley also shot Secret Service agent Tim McCarthy in the stomach and police officer Thomas Delahantry in the neck as they tried to protect the president. Reagan recovered from the shooting and carried on with his duties as head of state.

 

 

John Hinckley in 2015

Hinckley pled not guilty by reason of insanity and was sent to a mental hospital for three and a half decades. Brady was not charged with the death of Brady, though responsible for his early passing. The Judiciary Report is of the belief schizophrenic Hinckley should have spent the rest of his life in confinement. There is no known cure for schizophrenia and if he forgets to take his medicine, no longer being watched and ordered to by medical staff, something bad could happen again.

Would-be Reagan assassin John Hinckley Jr. to be freed after 35 years

July 27 at 7:52 PM - Thirty-five years after he shot President Ronald Reagan and three others outside a D.C. hotel, John W. Hinckley Jr. will be released from a government psychiatric hospital, a federal judge ordered Wednesday. The ruling ends the institutionalization of the one of the nation’s most notorious mental health patients.

Outrage over Hinckley’s acquittal in the 1981 shooting reshaped the insanity defense in courts across the country. The revelation that he had pulled the trigger to impress a movie star added obsession and celebrity to the case. And extraordinary television footage of the attack on the 40th U.S. president brought the event to millions of American homes.

In Wednesday’s court order, U.S. District Judge Paul L. Friedman wrote that Hinckley, 61, no longer poses a danger to himself or others and will be freed to live full time with his mother in Williamsburg, Va. His release could come as early as Aug. 5 and is subject to dozens of conditions, some of which could be phased out after a year if Hinckley adheres to them.

Officer Who Shot Surrendered Unarmed Miami Therapist Caring For Disabled Man Has A History Of Stereotyping Black People As Criminals And Villains

Jonathan Aledda has been named as the North Miami Beach Police Department officer who shot unarmed African-American behavioral therapist, Charles Kinsey, as he lay on the ground with his hands up in surrender. Minutes before the shooting occurred, Kinsey exited the group home he works in, walking behind 24-year-old mentally disabled patient, Arnaldo Rios, who had walked out of the facility. 

Kinsey was following behind Rios for his own safety and to bring him back to the group home. Police became involved and it led to the shooting, after they allegedly received a 911 call from an anonymous person, stating a suicidal man had a gun and was going to shoot himself. So Aledda decided to shoot the allegedly suicidal man instead. Who in their right mind shoots a suicidal person that allegedly posed a danger to himself.

A neighbor stated to the press that she used her binoculars to detect Rios did not have a gun in his hand, but a toy. She informed a police woman on the scene of what she observed through her binoculars, but was told to back away. Shortly after, Kinsey was shot at three times, with one of the bullets hitting his leg. Rios was admitted to the hospital suffering significant emotional trauma, as the autistic man keeps reenacting the incident repeatedly stating "I hate the police!" and "shoot!" among other things, while terrified and traumatized.

Jonathan Aledda

Due to intense public backlash, the North Miami Beach Police Department is stating Aledda was trying to protect Kinsey by attempting to shoot Rios. However, the public is not buying it. Feedback comments on websites such as the Miami Herald, Miami New Times and news channels reveal, members of the public are questioning why Aledda handcuffed a bleeding and wounded Kinsey, as well as Rios, putting both in the back of his squad car after the shooting.

If Aledda was trying to protect the behavioral therapist, why cuff him while injured. There was a distance between Kinsey and Rios prior to the shooting. How did a member of the SWAT team, who specialize in sharp shooting, miss so terribly, hitting the man he claimed he was protecting.  

Clearly, Aledda thought Kinsey was the bad guy, when neither the behavioral therapist or his client had done anything illegal in this matter. People in the disability field in Miami now fear for their mentally impaired patients lives and have been sending out alerts warning staff and the family members of the disabled to be very careful when out in public, especially around police.

Police shot Charles Kinsey who was laying on the ground, hands up in surrender and stating "Don't shoot me!" Kinsey disabled, autistic patient, Arnaldo Rios, sits beside him understandably confused at why they are being criminally harassed by police.

 

Aledda has a history of questionable behavior. A complaint was filed against Aledda in 2013 for injuring a store owner. Aledda responded to a 911 call of a robbery in progress at a business in Miami. When Aledda arrived, he assumed the black store owner was the robber, threw him against a wall twice and injured his elbow. Aledda refused to listen to the store owner who was informing him that he was the one who called police for assistance due to the robbery. Aledda opted to rough up, injure and arrest the store owner anyway. Much like Aledda clearly refused to listen to Kinsey, shooting him while assuming he was the bad guy, when he was just trying to protect his mentally disabled patient, Rios. Talk about stereotyping people

Autistic man whose black caretaker was shot by an officer is so traumatized he’s stopped eating and has been screaming ‘I hate the police!’

Arnaldo Rios was the intended target of the shooting, which occurred Monday after four North Miami police officers responded to a 911 call about a suicidal man with a gun.

Rios sat cross-legged. He yelled. He didn't obey commands to lie down with his hands up and he fidgeted with a metal object. Meanwhile his therapist Charles Kinsey tried to surrender by lying down on the ground and keeping his hands up.

Miami Voted 'The Worst Place To Live'

Police Scanner Reveals Black Man Philando Castile Was Racially Profiled And Killed By A Cop For Having A 'Wide Nose'

Just when you thought it couldn't get any more insulting it does and on a new level. News reports indicate the brutal shooting death of motorist, Philando Castile, with his girlfriend and 4-year-old child present in the car, was not for the reasons police initially claimed. Castile was summarily executed by police officer Jeronimo Yanez. The incident, along with the police killing of Alton Sterling, sparked protests in America and other parts of the world, due to it being the product of racism and police brutality. It also led to the shooting deaths of 5 police officers in a retaliatory killing by army reservist Micah Xavier Johnson.

Philando Castile's girlfriend Diamond Reynolds witnessed his murder and streamed the aftermath via mobile phone video on Facebook, which shocked social networking users due to its brutality
 

Police initially stated Castile was driving with a broken taillight, which is why they claimed he was pulled over by police. However, the photos from the crime scene revealed otherwise, which many on social networking began publicly pointing out. Two days later, police acknowledged Castile was pulled over for having a "wide nose" which in their estimation looked like a black man who had held up a store.

Jeronimo Yanez
 

This case is beyond insulting. The racial stereotypes, evidence tampering in trying to delete video footage of the killing from Facebook, lying, fraud, defamation of an innocent man and extreme lack of courtesy shown to Castile, who make no mistake, was racially profiled, is disgraceful. Yanez must be prosecuted within the scope of the law for costing an innocent man his life and for the disturbing cover-up that ensued. Any other police employee that aided in the cover up and evidence tampering should face criminal prosecution as well.

Castile family responds to police scanner audio
 

 3 days ago - ST.PAUL - The uncle of Philando Castile told KARE 11 the police scanner audio we obtained is an example of racial profiling. A KARE 11 viewer, who gave us audio clips of police radio traffic, claims they captured the moments just before Philando Castile and his girlfriend were stopped by St. Anthony police – which ended with police fatally shooting Castile. 

KARE 11 has attempted to confirm the authenticity of the recording with police officials, but so far they have not responded. We have verified that the license plate mentioned by police in the recording matches the plate of the car Castile was driving. The location the officer gives also corresponds to the locations of the traffic stop. 

“I’m going to stop a car,” the officer says on the recording. “I’m going to check IDs. I have reason to pull it over.” “The two occupants just look like people that were involved in a robbery,” the officer says. “The driver looks more like one of our suspects, just ‘cause of the wide set nose,” the officer continues. 

Diamond Reynolds said she and her deceased boyfriend did not match the descriptions on the audio clip. Philando Castile’s uncle, Clarence Castile, called the traffic stop an example of racial profiling. “I just thought it was kind of insane to pull somebody over saying they matched a robbery suspect by having flared nostrils,” Clarence Castile said. “It is kind of hard to see flared nostrils from a car...

U.S. Army Reservist Micah Xavier Johnson Shoots 5 Police Officers Dead In Retaliation For Alton Sterling And Philando Castile Killings By Police (Photos)

 

Micah Xavier Johnson

25-year-old Army Reservist, Micah Xavier Johnson, shot and killed 5 police officers in Dallas, Texas last night. Johnson also injured 7 police officers and wounded 2 civilians. He has no criminal record. Johnson opened fire on police during a peaceful protest in downtown Dallas, as people gathered to voice their disapproval of the killings of African-Americans Alton Sterling and Philando Castile at the hands of police in two separate incidents of excessive force. A police bomb squad robot killed Johnson.

Johnson clearly snapped to have taken such a detrimental and deadly course of action against police
 

This was a senseless tragedy that is a waste of life all around, both the police officers and Johnson. There is a problem with police brutality against black people in America. Hundreds of African-Americans are killed every year by police. It is wrong and must stop. However, the answer is not killing police. Two wrongs don't make a right. You don't fight crime with crime. You enact meaningful legislation changing the law to promote safety for civilians and police. The Judiciary Report has repeatedly emphasized in articles that there are good cops doing their jobs, who don't deserve to be classed with the ones engaging in brutality against members of the public. The bad cops are the ones who need to be addressed and through Congress and the court system.

Police Kill Man In Front Of Girlfriend And 4-Year-Old Daughter In Unprovoked Murder (Philando Castile Video)

The Murder Of Alton Sterling By Louisiana Police Causes Outrage Among The Public (Videos)

The Murder Of Alton Sterling By Louisiana Police Causes Outrage Among The Public (Videos)

Police brutality and excessive force strikes again in America. 37-year-old father of five, Alton Sterling, was tased, tackled and shot several times in the chest at point blank range, by an officer in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, while his police partner held the victim down. Sterling died on the scene. He was selling CDs outside of a food store, with the permission of the owner, when police arrived.

It is being stated police receive a complaint Sterling threatened someone outside the store and brandished a gun. One of the two officers tackled Sterling to the ground, then pinned his arm down, as did his fellow cop. While having Sterling completely subdued, one officer yelled "he's got a gun" (said to be in his pocket, which is lawful in America) and within seconds the other cop took out his own weapon and fired into Sterling's chest at close range, executing him.

 

 

Alton Sterling

The police officers also quickly seized the store owner's security camera footage showing the murder. However, unbeknownst to the officers at the time, two people sitting in a car used their mobile phones to film the shooting. They anonymously uploaded the video from their phone to the internet, sparking massive outcry from the public. The police officers claim their body cameras fell off during the scuffle, which is not seen on the video that ultimately surfaced.

To blunt public sympathy, police began pushing Sterling's criminal record online. It is being stated Sterling had been previously arrested for aggravated battery, domestic violence, unauthorized entry, vandalism,  drug possession (marijuana), weapons possession, disturbing the peace and is a registered sex offender, regarding a "carnal knowledge of a juvenile" criminal conviction. As serious as those crimes are, it does not negate the fact he still had human rights and to summarily execute him on a public street, after aggressively approaching him, cost him his life and in a very violent way that looks bad. The store's owner stated he did not see Sterling reach for a gun and was tased then shot by police.

 

 

BBC graphic on police violence (http://www.bbc.com)

 

The video is awful and chilling. There’s no way to objectively state that Sterling's shooting death was justifiable homicide. That was an execution via excessive force illustrating a total disregard for human life. It is alarming that these types of cases are becoming more and more egregious. For every cop that goes out there and does his job properly, the intense public scrutiny and disgust the bad apples bring to the force does an extraordinary world of damage to the name of police in America and in the area of race relations regarding the black community and authorities.

The police brutality occurring in numerous places in American makes it a federal issue, as it is occurring in a number of U.S. states which encompasses the country. Congress is the only entity that can truly bring reform on this tragic issue, via meaningful legislation or the problem will continue to occur. There are nations where police don't even use guns and still get the job done, effectively policing, with nowhere near the fatality rate present in America. However, I am of the belief Congress is too afraid to enact the legislation needed to curb the problem

Man Trapped 50 People In Hallway To Save Himself During Orlando Gay Night Club Terrorist Attack That Left 49 People Dead

Luis Burbano

Luis Burbano is being slammed for putting his own life ahead of others at the Pulse gay and lesbian night club shooting that occurred in Orlando, Florida last week, at the hands of ISIS terrorist, Omar Mateen. Survivor, Janiel Gonzalez, revealed Luis Burbano slammed an employee exit door shut, while approximately 50 people were trying to escape through a hallway leading to the door, as Mateen tried to shoot them to death.

Janiel Gonzalez

The people Burbano slammed the door on, trapping them in the hallway, were banging and pushing against the door trying to open it. Burbano’s excuse is he heard the gunshots getting louder and wanted to be able to escape before the gunman got to him and the people on the other side of the door who were rushing to get out of the club. Essentially, Burbano locked them into the club hallway with the shooter, so he and those with him could get out first due to overcrowding in the number of people who tried to escape.

Omar Mateen

They state Burbano kept yelling at them as they tried to push open the door “Stay inside, stay inside!” Gonzalez stated he and others being trapped by Burbano kept screaming “Let us out!” and began to think “This guy (Burbano) is trying to prevent us from leaving. Maybe they’re working together.”

Orlando survivor admits TRAPPING other club-goers inside after he escaped but claims he thought he was 'doing the right thing' 

Published: 14:37 EST, 15 June 2016 | Updated: 22:27 EST, 15 June 2016 - One of the Orlando shooting survivors has admitted to locking an exit door, putting dozens of revelers' lives at risk during the massacre. The revelations about Luis Burbano's actions the night of the shooting have come to light after he gave an interview, saying he 'regrets' his second chance at life.

When gunman Omar Mateen first started firing inside Orlando, Florida gay club Pulse around 2am on Sunday, Burbano says he dropped to the ground and then looked for an exit. Orlando shooting survivor Luis Burbano admitted on Sunday in an interview with Megyn Kelly that he trapped revelers inside the nightclub during the shooting after he escaped, but says he thought he was going the right thing.

Survivor Janiel Gonzalez said a man locked an exit door he was trying to use, which trapped dozens of other innocent people inside the club during the shooting. Eventually, Gonzalez was able to make an escape. Nearby, he saw people moving through a small 'employee's only' door hidden behind a curtain, and followed after.

On the other side of the door was a narrow hallway where Burbano estimates about 20 people were crawling over each other to get to the exit at the other end. Burbano says he decided to shut the door behind him because the hallway was getting dangerously overcrowded. Burbano was questioned about the rumors he locked other partiers inside the club during an interview With Fox News' Megyn Kelly on Sunday, and during the interview he admitted that it was risky.

'That was on my mind,' Burbano said. 'There was banging, there was pushing of the door...but at that point in time, I just tried doing what I thought would be best at that moment because [the gunshots were] getting louder and getting closer.'...

There does seem to be at least one major discrepancy between Burbano's story and those that were locked in the club. Witness Janiel Gonzalez told ABC News that it was the exit door to the outside, and not the 'employee's only' door that someone slammed shut. If that's the case, then Burbano's excuse that he was trying to protect from overcrowding in the hallway doesn't line up.

'In a moment of desperation we were all crawling on the floor trying to find a place to exit. I looked to my right and I could see people going through some curtains. We were digging through the curtains and we finally see a door. 'Fifty people were trying to jump over each other trying to exit the place. There was a guy holding the door and not letting us exit. He’s like "Stay inside, stay inside." As he is saying that, the shooter keeps getting closer and closer and the sound of the bullets is getting closer. 'Everyone starts to panic. People are getting trampled. We're shouting "Let us out, let us out!" Gonzalez recalled.

Gonzalez voiced his skepticism over a person who would trap innocent bystanders inside a club with a gunman, saying he at first feared the man may have been working in concert with the gunman. 'This guy is trying to prevent us from leaving. Maybe they’re working together,' Gonzalez said...

Orlando nightclub shooting: gunman opens fire in attack on Pulse LGBT club

Police Confirm A Stalker Killed 'Voice' Star Christina Grimmie (Video)

Christina Grimmie
 

Yesterday morning at approximately 6:00 AM (the site is set to eastern standard time) the Judiciary Report stated "Voice" star Christina Grimmie was killed by a stalker ("22-Year-Old 'Voice' Star Christina Grimmie Shot Dead In Florida By Crazed Stalker"). It was also posted to my blog shortly after ("Aisha: 22-Year-Old 'Voice' Star Christina Grimmie Shot Dead In Florida By Crazed Stalker"). 

A few hours after the Judiciary Report's article, police in Orlando, Florida held a press conference confirming Grimmie was indeed killed by a stalker. Later that evening police further revealed the stalker is 27-year-old Kevin James Loibl of St. Petersburg, Florida. There were claims by a Facebook user that Grimmie was killed by an ex-boyfriend, but police are now stating there is no evidence to suggest Grimmie knew Loibl. 

Police revealed that Loibl was a stalker with a criminal history for theft, who tried to connect with popular Grimmie over the internet on social networking. At the time Grimmie's shooting was announced, she had 659,000 followers on Twitter and 3,000,000 subscribers on You Tube. There are many major label artists, who have been recording music for many years, but don't have that type of online following. Grimmie was definitely being heard online.

Loibl went to Grimmie's concert  at The Plaza theatre, where she was opening for boyband Before You Exit. Loibl was carrying two guns and a knife, walked over to Grimmie, who was signing autographs and opened fire. He shot her 4 times in the chest and head. A hot dog vender at the venue stated he went inside the theatre when he heard the commotion and saw Grimmie on the ground with blood pouring from her head. When I read the vendor's statement, the scenario he described fit that of a stalker, to just walk up to a singer and shoot that person in particular, no questions asked. Grimmie's brother tackled Loibl, who then turned the gun on himself.

Though quite talented (her voice is amazing) and popular online, Grimmie was by no means rich, as it was the beginning stages of her career (she had the potential to become wealthy from music). She was on the television talent show "The Voice" in 2014, placing third. Then Grimmie began making appearances and doing shows in smaller venues, but not enough work yet to necessitate or afford bodyguards. At this early stage of her career, it was not warranted yet. 

However, with the way social networking is working now, with a small minority of deranged, abusive, violent people ruining what is often a very positive and uplifting experience of interacting with others who are nice and decent, even Twitter famous and Instagram famous people need to be careful. Poor girl never realized such a thing could happen. 

 

   
Kevin James Loibl
 

Grimmie was a lovely singer with a great voice and good attitude. Her social networking pages were positive and funny, as she politely interacted with others. She would be one of the last people you would think something like this would happen to, as all indications show she was sweet to people. However, with crazy people, you never know what will set them off. A pretty young woman with talent doing something with her life will attract attention online. Some will be women who enjoy your work (and in listening to Grimmie last night for the first time due to her name trending over tragedy, I was very impressed with her big voice and enjoying her singing as refreshing and beautiful). While others will be men who like you and want to date you.

There's nothing wrong with seeing someone on social networking and wanting to date them. That's normal. However, when it turns crazy like Loibl, an unhinged person who in true stalker fashion clearly began thinking crazy, evil, violent things about an innocent person (Grimmie), imagining offenses that never occurred and hidden meanings in her music and statements online, it can turn deadly. It is not common that it turns into stalking and murder, but it has happened. Loibl probably wanting to date Grimmie, may have realized she liked or was dating someone and it likely simmered and festered into illogical thinking and ultimately murder.  

The Plaza venue and show's promoter may be sued, as lawyers will state there was inadequate security. However, most theatre venues don't have metal detectors or workers who search concertgoers belongings as they enter the building. One really would not think violence would erupt at a Before You Exit or Christina Grimmie show, as they are not controversial new artists. It's a sad situation.

Gunman Who Killed 'The Voice' Singer Christina Grimmie Traveled to Orlando to Shoot Her, Police Say 

Jun 11, 2016, 8:11 PM ET - The man who shot and killed singer Christina Grimmie after her concert in Orlando traveled there from another Florida city to attack her, police said today. The suspected gunman, Kevin James Loibl, 27, of St. Petersburg, had two handguns, loaded magazines and a hunting knife, the Orlando Police Department said. Police released his name this afternoon, after earlier only giving his age -- mistakenly given as 21. 

There is no indication that he knew the 22-year-old singer, who was a performer on "The Voice" in 2014, police said. "The suspect traveled to Orlando apparently to commit this crime," Orlando Police Department Chief John Mina told reporters at a news conference today. Loibl was not on police radar and there was "nothing that would stand out or raise suspicious that he would do something like this," St Petersburg Police Department spokesman Rick Shaw said. 

According to a Pinellas County police database, Loibl was never arrested, Shaw said. He was in the police system, but for minor infractions such as petty theft, a minor battery incident in which he was the victim and a 2008 car accident. He was once suspected of aggravated battery, but no charges were filed after the alleged victim said she couldn't remember the incident and then became uncooperative, Shaw said. 

Grimmie and the band Before You Exit were signing autographs and selling merchandise after their show ended Friday night at 10 p.m. at Orlando's Plaza Live Theater, when Loibl walked up to her and shot her, Orlando police said. Loibl fatally shot himself after Grimmie's brother tackled him to the ground. 

"During the struggle, the suspect shot himself. The suspect was pronounced dead at the scene," Orlando Police Department public information officer Wanda Miglio said during an earlier press briefing this morning. "Her brother is a hero for saving and stopping him from not hurting anyone else."...

22-Year-Old 'Voice' Star Christina Grimmie Shot Dead In Florida By Crazed Stalker

Christina Grimmie
 

22-year-old You Tube star, Christina Grimmie, who placed third on the 2014 edition of the television talent show "The Voice" was shot and killed in Orlando, Florida, while signing autographs for fans outside The Plaza theatre. The talented singer/pianist Grimmie and the boyband Before You Exit, held a concert at the venue, but trouble erupted at the meet and greet after the show. 

A man opened fire on Grimmie as she signed autographs, shooting her in the head, then fatally turning the gun on himself, after the singer's brother tackled him. Grimmie was rushed to hospital and listed in critical condition. However, shortly after Grimmie was declared dead. This is so tragic and sad. She was someone's child. To die at 22-years old and in an act of violence, when all she wanted to do was sing, is terrible. He had no right to take her life away from her. 

Ironically, Grimmie did a version of David Guetta's "Titanium" repeatedly singing the lyric "Shoot me down, but I won't fall." To most who've heard the song, it is just lyrics. However, to a crazed stalker, it's an invitation to do the unthinkable. Where normal people see, read and hear one thing, a lunatic interprets it completely differently and destructively. Stalkers imagine hidden meanings in words and statements that aren't there.

Stalking is a serious crime. It denotes serious mental illness. The sad fact of the matter is a number of stalkers resort to acts of violence against innocent victims, who have done them no harm. However, stalkers build up insane scenarios in their heads of imagine invitations, offenses, slights or provocations that simply never occurred.

Chris Brown Sued Over Violence At Concert In California

Chris Brown

R&B singer, Chris Brown, has been sued by partygoer, Paul Briley, over a shooting that occurred in January 2015 at San Jose's "Capricorn Bash" concert in California at the Fiesta night club. Briley sued Brown after sustaining permanent injuries, as assailants opened fire, with Brown as the primary target. Brown escaped injury. However, five partygoers were left with bullet wounds. Briley's lawsuit is based on his injures and names Brown as the cause of the shooting, stating the star repeatedly attracts violence. Club performances and parties Brown performed at or attended in another capacity, experienced incidents of violence.

Brown's attorney has filed a "motion to dismiss" the lawsuit, contending the event was not Brown's party (he was the host). However, it was advertised as such, making Brown and the venue legally liable. Inadequate security at the concert venue coupled with violent assailants, made for a disaster that could have resulted in fatalities. Thankfully all injured concertgoers survived. Under the law, they are entitled to compensation in court for their injuries.

City Of Cleveland Government Adds Insult To Injury Suing 12-Year-Old Tamir Rice For Ambulance Fees After Police Shot And Killed The Underage Boy

Tamir Rice

Lawyers for the City of Cleveland have filed a lawsuit against, 12-year-old murder victim, Tamir Rice, demanding $500 in ambulance fees and additional court costs, after mentally unstable police officer, Timothy Loehmann, gunned down her son in acts of brutality and excessive force. This lawsuit was no typo. City of Cleveland management knows exactly what it is doing, as the lawsuit was filed against the estate of the 12-year-old child, which is appalling. 

Tamir Rice left to die on the ground on police orders. His 14-year-old sister was handcuffed and thrown in the back of a squad car for trying to help her dying brother.

Subodh Chandra, an attorney for Tamir's estate, accurately concluded in a response to the lawsuit that has been filed against the deceased minor, "The callousness, insensitivity, and poor judgment required for the city to send a bill - its own police officers having slain 12-year-old Tamir - is breathtaking. This adds insult to homicide."  

Tamir Rice's traumatized sister   

This is one of the most callous things I have ever read. The coldness of it all is astonishing. I don't understand how some people lose their humanity and do such things. The  people who referred the matter to the city attorneys and those responsible for filing it in court should all be fired. Someone was trying to get back at the Rice family, due to the bad publicity the case brought the city and they need to be held accountable for their disgraceful actions. 

Timothy Loehmann

The negative attention the scandal of Rice's murder created is needed to draw people's attention to the horrors and injustice of the case and others that have transpired in Cleveland, regarding police brutality. The Cleveland Plain Dealer reported, "In more than 60 lawsuits, citizens accused officers of needlessly shooting at them, beating them during routine traffic stops, shocking them with Tasers while face-down on the ground in handcuffs or arresting them when they had committed no crime."

'Insult to Homicide': Cleveland Sues Tamir Rice's Family for Ambulance Fees

11:28 AM ET U.S.- The city has filed a suit demanding $500 in payment for emergency treatment for the boy after a police officer fatally shot him. hat’s more outrageous than having a police officer shoot an unarmed 12-year-old, failing to provide medical care, keeping his family forcibly from the scene, and then declining to indict the officer for the death? In most cases, little. But the city of Cleveland has found a way: It is suing Tamir Rice’s family for not paying the ambulance bill after a Cleveland cop shot and killed the boy in November 2014. 

As the Scene reports, Cleveland has filed a claim in probate court, seeking $500 from Rice’s estate to pay for emergency medical services rendered after Officer Timothy Loehmann fatally shot the boy. The charge is especially galling because Loehmann and another officer apparently had no training or equipment to provide aid to Rice after they shot him. They did nothing for four minutes until an FBI agent who happened to be nearby took over...

Cleveland Police Firing 137 Bullets Into A Car Occupied By Innocent Couple Is Another Prime Example Of Police Brutality

Michael Brelo (left)

Recently, I read about a 2012 case in Cleveland, Ohio, where the police opened fire on a car containing a man and woman, 30-year-old Malissa Williams and 43-year-old, Timothy Russell, suspecting they were involved in illegal drug activity. A call to dispatch to run the couple's license plate revealed the car was "clean." However, a police officer began tailing the couple's car anyway, in what turned into a high speed chase. The officer signaled for other cops to join the chase. When they cornered the couple in a middle school parking lot, within 20 seconds the officers opened fire on the couple (much like police sped right up to 12-year-old Tamir Rice and opened fire within seconds, killing the innocent boy).

Malissa Williams and Timothy Russell's bullet riddled car

One officer, Michael Brelo, stood on the hood of the car and fired 49 bullets into the vehicle, which is psychotic. To riddle a car with 137 bullets, shooting each victim over 20 times, sends a horrible message to the public. Brelo was placed on trial and acquitted, as it could not be determined if one of the 49 bullets he fired into the car caused the fatalities. That was a poor excuse for letting a murderer walk free, in conduct indicative of the cop outs and loopholes being invoked to erode justice and the public's human rights in American in a number of national cases. 

Malissa Williams and Timothy Russell

Brelo and his fellow officers in the incident should have been fired and sent to prison, as they participated in murder. Brelo in particular has mental problems to have gone that far and is a danger to the public. Whether or not the couple had been involved in drug activity (they were not) no one deserves to be killed in such a manner. It is extreme violence. These heavy handed tactics by some, not all police, is leaving an alarming number of Americans dead, particularly black people, in preventable tragedies.

Cleveland officer not guilty over deaths of two people shot at 137 times by police

Saturday 23 May 2015 13.43 EDT - Last modified on Sunday 31 May 2015 16.36 EDT - A Cleveland police officer who stood on the hood of a car and fired his gun 49 times through the windshield at two unarmed passengers was on Saturday found not guilty on two counts of voluntary manslaughter. Officer Michael Brelo was also found not guilty of felonious assault, and discharged. He remains on unpaid leave.

The federal Department of Justice announced a review of the decision. In a statement to which civil rights division head Vanita Gupta was one of three names attached, the DoJ said: “We will now review the testimony and evidence presented in the state trial … to collaboratively determine what, if any, additional steps are available and appropriate.” Protests followed the verdict, as civic leaders called for calm...

 First These Cops Shot 140 Bullets at a Black Couple. Then They Complained About Reverse Racism...and a federal judge just shut them down.

Tue Dec. 8, 2015 4:29 PM EST - The windshield of the car driven by Timothy Russell on the night of November 29, 2012. Following a high-speed chase, Cleveland police officers fired 140 shots at Russell and his passenger, Malissa Williams. 

Today, a federal judge threw out a yearlong case centering on a peculiar claim: When non-black cops shoot and kill black people in Cleveland, they face stiffer repercussions than black cops who kill black people. Nine police officers—eight white, one Latino—claimed that they were subjected to "reverse discrimination" and "mental anguish" after a controversial 2012 incident in which they killed two unarmed African Americans in a fusillade of nearly 140 bullets. The suit, filed just days after a Cleveland police officer shot and killed 12-year-old Tamir Rice, alleged that the officers were singled out due to their race and were unfairly punished while the state investigated the shooting. Their claim of victimization, ruled Judge James Gwin in response to the city's request for summary judgment, was "illogic." 

The events behind the case occurred on the night of November 29, 2012. According to the Ohio Bureau of Investigation's report on the incident, a plainclothes officer named John Jordan saw a black man and a black woman sitting in a parked car in East Cleveland. He suspected they were "involved in illegal drug activity," so he called in the vehicle's license plate. The dispatcher told him it was "clean," but Jordan decided to search the vehicle anyway, he later admitted to investigators. When the car's driver, 43-year-old Timothy Russell, drove away, Jordan followed and pulled him over for failing to use a turn signal. When the officer got out of his unmarked car, Russell took off. In the space of 18 seconds, 13 cops fired nearly 140 rounds at the car. One officer jumped on the hood and shot through the windshield at least 15 times.

The Oregon Militia Standoff Ended In Fatality That Could Have Been Prevented

My tweet on Twitter prior to the stand off ending

The Oregon Militia standoff at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge ended in tragedy on January 26, 2016, as I previously predicted it would in Twitter tweets, alluding to what transpired in Waco, Texas. History repeated itself again, as the FBI stormed the standoff and killed, Roy " LaVoy" Finicum, who was surrendering to authorities. Activists are angry, slamming the FBI for killing a man who was surrendering.

‘Anonymous’ video demands justice for killed rancher LaVoy, publication of FBI agents' IDs

Published time: 1 Feb, 2016 07:33 Edited time: 1 Feb, 2016 08:29 - A video which claims to be made by Anonymous is demanding justice for killed Oregon rancher Robert “LaVoy” Finicum and for the IDs of the FBI agents who shot the protester with his hands in the air to be published.

The alleged Anonymous video was sent exclusively to News2Share online media outlet, based in Washington DC, early Sunday morning by an individual claiming to be a member of the Anonymous hacker community. The professionally edited clip consists of the police helicopter footage of Robert “LaVoy” Finicum being killed by the Oregon State Police troopers, scenes of armed men occupying Malheur National Wildlife refuge in Oregon talking to the FBI agents, the leader of protesters Ammon Bundy and other footage related to the standoff. A distorted male voice reads an alleged Anonymous message to the US authorities and citizens.

The clip is accompanied by a matching transcript. The voice on the video accuses the FBI of “creating the opposite to peace” in Oregon which resulted in arrests and a murder of a protester killed “in cold blood, as his hands were in the air.” The voice also urges Anonymous to “engage” and spread the video among associates. “We do not call for violence, or armed uprising. We call for Anonymous members to spread this fight online.”...

“We want the identity of every agent who fired their weapon that day. We want justice for LaVoy. We stand with Ammon Bundy,” the alleged Anonymous video says, making parallels with the case of Michael Brown killed by police in Ferguson in August 2014...
