Not long after Jeff German — a reporter at the @reviewjournal — was slain outside of his home last fall, my editor called me with a question.

The Post had reached out, asking if we could help in some way. Jeff's editor had an idea. Maybe we could take on the last of his work.

Soon after, I flew to Las Vegas to start reporting, pairing up with the incomparable @Rookie__Rae, on visuals.

They outlined a fascinating tale — an alleged $500 million Ponzi Scheme that preyed on Mormons and ended in FBI gunfire. There was an ill-gotten private jet, a group of Ponzi Hunters from NYC.

Jeff hadn't gotten further than that.

So this is where I picked up.

Police will determine if criminal charges are appropriate after an investigation. Civilians can use deadly force to defend themselves if they reasonably believe deadly force is about to be used on them. However, civilians are not allowed to use deadly force to protect property.

Parents be warned, hiding your murdering kid is capital murder:

....Acosta testified that he did not know his son, Abel Acosta, had a gun or had shot anyone, only that the teenager got into his vehicle and told his father to drive away because someone was shooting.

Abel Acosta disappeared shortly after the shooting and authorities say he remains at large and is considered armed and dangerous.

Prosecutors argued that Richard Acosta sought to dispose of evidence and tried to move his family from Garland....

..."A 13-year-old killed my son," said Jackie Rowe-Adams, founder of Harlem Mothers and Fathers S.A.V.E.

Two of Rowe-Adams' four children have been killed by gun violence. She says she's been fighting this fight for a long time and has no plans of stopping.

.Rowe-Adams says she wants lawmakers to get illegal guns out of the city and ensure the NYPD has the funding it needs. She also supports changing current bail reforms.

"We can't afford for our kids to keep killing each other and ourselves killing each other, going in jail, coming back out," she said. "Stop tying our mayor's hands. Stop tying NYPD hands."....

Michigan fugitives among 833 suspects busted during Operation North Star II

Published February 15, 2023 5:19PM FOX 2 Detroit

[....] Efforts in Michigan resulted in 95 total warrants closed – 49 focal offense warrants and 46 other egregious offense warrants, and the seizure of 16 firearms, drugs, and $2,000, authorities said.

Across the county, 95 people were arrested for homicide and 68 people were arrested for sexual assault. Investigators seized 181 firearms, more than $229,000 in cash, and more than 160 kilograms of drugs. [....]

Like it or not, a "zero tolerance purge" has absolutely worked to incredible effect in El Salvador! Proving that the argument that police and prisons do not deter crime is hogwash; it definitely works if applied in a totalitarian manner! And that everyone is not a potential criminal - if purged to the max and beyond, new ones do not come out of nowhere to fill their shoes.

El Salvador, population 6M, has gone 300 days without any homicides. Before Bukele took over, it was considered the most dangerous in the world. There were 382 homicides in the city of Los Angeles (3.8M pop) last year.

El Salvador now has the lowest murder rate in the Americas.
— Calvin (@calvinfroedge) February 15, 2023

The previous administration - the one that the United States backed - didn't have a single day without homicides - in 4 years.

They called Bukele a tyrant. They said he was anti democracy. Funny how El Salvador now has peace and Bukele has an > 90% approval rating.

— Calvin (@calvinfroedge) February 15, 2023

90 people died in police custody in November 2022 alone. To sum up why the homicide rate in El Salvador has cratered: they're getting rid of all the criminals.

Petty criminals are being imprisoned, violent criminals are being killed in police custody. A zero tolerance purge.
— Calvin (@calvinfroedge) February 15, 2023

They changed the homicide definition/ to exclude:

- People killed in police custody
- People who die in prison
- People who die in confrontations with police

Are state executions without due process a good thing? Probably not. Is El Salvador's homicide rate dropping? Yes.

Deputies identified the victim has been identified as David O'Connell, the Auxiliary Bishop of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. An Ireland-native, O'Connell was 69-years-old. He was named to the position by Pope Francis in 2015.

O'Connell served the Los Angeles area for more than 45 years. He also served as the Episcopal Vicar of the San Gabriel Pastoral Region.

During Mass on Saturday, Archbishop José H. Gomez, said, "Our beloved Auxiliary Bishop David O'Conell has passed away unexpectedly. It's a shock and I have no words to express my sadness."

"It's very early in the investigation," said LASD Homicide Bureau Detective Michael Modica. "We got a lot more steps we have to take to make more determination to what's happening." [.....]

“I’ve seen so much of kids raising kids and half of the kids are raising themselves you don’t see no parents all you see is kids out in the street all times of night no guidance so it got to be more love in this world because there’s none here,” Margaret Hagan, says.

While Hagan and her family grieve the tragic loss...she says the overall violence happening in the Chattahoochee valley has some people on high alert.

“They are scared to sit on their porch they scared to go anywhere everybody rushing home before it get dark that’s not a good feeling people scared or just I sometimes I used to get out off work and I sit in my car for hours or so but now I see a car coming when I’m in my car I don’t know to dunk down or what it just that scary out here,” Margaret Hagan, says [....]

^ this is a tale of OUTRAGEOUS incompetence!!! It is not only what is headlined, which is bad enough, but also stuff like this!!!

The I-Team obtained court documents showing Riley violated the terms of his bond, which included GPS monitoring and house arrest, at least 50 times before he was supposed to go trial in July 2022. He violated it at least 40 times ever since – the most recent of which happened just five days before Edmondson was struck.

In a statement from the courts, spokesman Joel Currier said the company that tracks GPS violations said Riley violated the terms of his bond 51 times since charges were refiled against him in July 2022.

The remaining violations disappeared from public view once the original charges were dismissed, but the I-Team obtained documents proving they occurred.

Gardner’s office did not file any motions with the judge asking for Riley’s bond to be revoked.

Hinckley told the I-Team Tuesday the judge gets notified of bond violations and chose not to revoke Riley’s bond. Hinckley also said Gardner’s office emailed the judge about the repeated violations and discussed the violations with the judge in court.

Currier said judges are not notified when GPS monitoring violations occur and it is the prosecutor’s duty to file a motion with the court asking to revoke a bond.

If you had anything to do with this victim or know of what happened to them, you be nuts to vote for the party of the candidates responsible!!!

^ if only there were more social workers available - he could have shot them, too

.@SheriffMina has detained 19-year-old Keith Melvin Moses in connection to the shooting. He says he has a lengthy criminal history and it’s unclear whether the Spectrum’s reporter and photographer were targeted. Another woman was also shot down the street.
— Chantelle Navarro (@CNavarroWFTV) February 23, 2023

what a surprise NOT: he has a lengthy criminal history

look, if you want to have a lot of guns in this country, YOU HAVE TO LOCK GUYS WITH RECORDS LIKE THIS UP! Far from abolishing prisons, you have to have more! More guns, more people locked up, the two go together! No bail, forget that. No home arrest, they just cut off the transponder when they want to go shoot somebody. A FEW ERRANT COPS ARE THE LEAST OF THIS COUNTRY'S PROBLEMS, especially now that they end up prosecuted up the wazoo and grifters like Ben Crump makes a ton on contigency suing their employers.

Meantime, there's tons of Black men maimed and dead on urban streets at the hands of other Black men, and more and more only bad apples who can't get jobs anywhere else want to try being a cop.

And here he is, the lovely Keith Melvin Moses, 19 years old and already with a lengthy criminal record, now a killer of 9-yr.olds, 20-something women he leaves on the street and TV reporters. Black lives matter my ass, LOCK HIM UP and throw away the key, at least until the availabilty of guns is way way down:

This is 19-year-old Keith Melvin Moses, the suspect in a series of shootings today that left three dead, including a woman in her 20's a 9-year-old girl and a News13 employee. We extend our deepest condolences to all of their families. This is a sad day for our community. pic.twitter.com/whq8DfbmPR

The reason...the Fulton County District Attorney's Office didn't have the only witness in the case - an APD cop - present to testify during a preliminary hearing.

— Joe Henke (@JoeHenke) February 24, 2023

The shooting, the judge dismissing the charges, and Howell being released from jail all took place last year. No news outlet reported on the case at that time, but the victim came to @11AliveNews this month asking for help as she waits for justice.
— Joe Henke (@JoeHenke) February 24, 2023

In statements and phone calls with 11Alive the DA's office claimed a subpoena had been issued to the officer and he failed to show up to testify...leading to the case being dismissed, while Atlanta Police said it had no record of the subpoena being served.
— Joe Henke (@JoeHenke) February 24, 2023

Then months after the defendant had been released & 3 days after @11AliveNews' story the DA's office presented the case to a grand jury, finally indicted Howell & he was rearrested the same day. But who dropped the ball leading to the defendant being released in the 1st place?

^Do others even want someone like that voting, much less owning a gun? Personally, I'd like to see someone like that prevented from voting - and it's not the domestic abuse that is involved there, but that he tried to kill someone who was trying to be a good citizen by calling 911. He doesn't believe in letting anyone else have power in society, he thinks he should be able to be in complete control.
