Student Acquitted In The Shooting Death Of Gay Teen That Made Unwanted Sexual Advances Towards Him And Other Boys

15-year-old, make-up wearing, openly gay high school student, Larry King, made a habit of boldly flirting with and making suggestive sexual statements to fellow male classmates, who complained of his behavior. One day, one of them snapped and shot him in the back of the head twice in the computer lab at E.O. Green Junior High School.

At age 14, Brandon McInerney, a depressed teen dabbling in white supremacy, had a breakdown and shot King, due to the overtly sexual statements. A mistrial was declared in a criminal case brought against McInerney for murder.

McInerney’s lawyer contended, E.O. Green Junior High School knew King was upsetting boys by sexually taunting and propositioning them in school and did nothing to stop it, as such conduct can be deemed sexual harassment (whether it is from a male or female, gay or straight).

Two lives have destroyed over an incident that could have been prevented had both teens taken the time to act rationally. While McInerney’s conduct is completely wrong, as stated previously on the site, gays need to be careful aggressively flirting with and taunting straight people, as it could turn violent and very fast. This is not to condone violence, as the Judiciary Report does not, but one has to be careful in life.

Dancehall singer, Buju Banton, real name, Mark Myrie, was convicted this week on drug charges in Tampa, Florida. He has been remanded into custody. The original case brought against him last year resulted in a mistrial.

However, the singer was found guilty this week, in spite of the fact, the government's cooperating witness in the case stated, the drugs, guns and vehicle used in the set up did not belong to Banton. His attorney announced they will lodge an appeal.

Buju Banton Facing New Charges After Mistrial

Buju Banton

37-year-old dancehall singer, Buju Banton, real name, Mark Anthony Myrie, was arrested in Miami, Florida, in December 2009, on cocaine possession charges. However, the initial case resulted in a mistrial in September 2010. Banton, had been remanded into custody and denied bail throughout the case, but was recently freed.

A few weeks ago, the U.S. government declared it is indicting Banton on the same charges again, adding two new counts to the case.

Many believe Banton was targeted, due to his anti-gay lyrics, on negative songs such as "Boom Bye Bye." Pro-gay groups have consistently hounded organizers into dropping him from concerts.

While the Judiciary Report retains its Christian faith, adhering to the Bible view that homosexuality is a sin that God offers forgiveness for, if there is repentance, a theme others such as Joel Osteen have stated as well, Banton and entertainers who make similar music, should not record violent lyrics. Yes, they have the right to free speech, but it is unkind to incite violence through music or any other medium. This needs to stop.

Dancehall is an offshoot of reggae, which was not violent. When my godmother's husband, the late Clement "Coxsone" Dodd, created reggae music, it was positive and uplifting. The music spoke of love and discussed social struggles, such as inequality, racism and poverty, giving people hope.

Dodd signed Bob Marley to his first deal and the singer/musician went on to spread a message of love, through songs like, "One Love," "Could You Be Love," "Is This Love," "No Woman No Cry" and "Redemption Song" to name a few. Marley's music touched the masses and also grossed over $3 billion dollars and counting.

From reggae sprang dancehall and later rap, two genres that have become quite negative, departing from its early positive roots. Count Machuki, who started rap in Jamaica as apart of Coxsone's sound system, then DJ Kool Herc, who brought it to America, inspired positive music from artists such as the Sugarhill Gang.

Regrettably, others later misused the genres and turned them into something undesirable and full of negative sounds. In the 1990s, things took a turn for the worse, when dancehall spewed heinous "murder music" in Tivoli Gardens (Jamaica) and rap gave birth to a terrible offspring, known as "gangsta rap" in Compton (America). Things swiftly went downhill from there.

Banton did begin his career with uplifting tracks, such as the infectious and touching, "I Wanna Be Loved" - a song even Bob Marley would have loved. However, Banton later departed from that sound, which he should have retained, rather than going the other route. Banton would do well to return to positivity in his music and life.

The Judiciary Report prefers comedic dancehall music, such as the hilarious song "Clarks" as opposed to violent or lewd songs, which are debasing. Two years ago, the Jamaican government began an initiative to ban violent and explicit music from the nation's airwaves and it was the right thing to do.

Hal Turner Seeks New Lawyers After Mistrial

Hal Turner

It has happened again. Controversial, racist blogger, Hal Turner, has beaten the government in court. His second criminal trial for threatening judges lives on his website, in calling for their deaths, has ended in another mistrial.

FBI Director Robert S. Mueller

This speaks volumes regarding the FBI's lack of credibility with the public, that he has gotten off once again. The FBI arrested their own informant (Turner), tried to pretend he was a nobody they barely even knew, when they had paid him $100,000 in taxpayer money to break the law in issuing death threats, even got self-righteous in court, lying that they did not tell him to behave like a KKK member and the jury still didn't believe the FBI. What does that tell you. Stick a fork in them, they're done.

Shock jock Hal Turner will choose new defense team for third trial

Thursday, March 11, 2010 - With his two trials ending in hung juries, Internet radio shock jock and former FBI informant Hal Turner faces the prospect of yet another criminal trial in April on a charge of threatening to murder federal judges

Turner, who celebrates his 48th birthday on Monday, can rejoice in the fact that he is still free, having now thwarted two government attempts to lock him away for up to 10 years.

But the prosecutions have taken a toll. Turner spent 119 days behind bars, most of it in isolation, for what he contends was nothing more than a fiery editorial. His radio show was silenced. His income dried up. And he recently filed for bankruptcy, listing virtually no assets and nearly $100,000 in debt...
