Does the man on the right look like a cop to you? Navasota, TX – A grieving family is fighting to bring justice to the man who ruthlessly gunned down their son.

Garza was off-duty, wearing basketball shorts and a sweatshirt when he decided to rush up to Santellana’s driver’s side window, brandishing a gun. Naturally, Santellana and Marsteller thought this deranged man was trying to rob them, so Santellana put the car in ...

Queens, NY – After suing his fellow officers for savagely beating and falsely arresting him at his daughter’s birthday party, an NYPD cop was awarded $15 million by a federal jury on Wednesday.

On August 22, 2010, NYPD Officer Larry Jackson was off-duty at his daughter’s birthday party in Queens when an unidentified man with a gun appeared in the street breaking a bottle. Although Jackson did not have his gun with him, the off-duty cop confronted the armed man and asked him to leave while ...

Evan Bayh (D-Ind.) shook Capitol Hill. Bayh had been polling strong and was expected to win re-election to a third term.

But Bayh had had enough of electoral politics, he said. So now that Bayh is leaving elected office when his term ends early next year, where does all that money go? “The bottom line is no personal use, ...

The police claim that they thought Juana Raymundo, originally from Guatemala, was a “burglar” because she was in the otherwise empty school building at night.

Now, Raymundo has been charged with “evading arrest” since she ran from the police who were aiming weapons at her in the middle of the night, in her place of employment. Even though she clearly had cleaning supplies in the hallway, the Times Free ...

AMES, Iowa — Iowa’s top elections official condemned Ted Cruz’s campaign on Saturday for sending mailers to Iowa voters designed to look like official documents that accuse them of a “VOTING VIOLATION” for failure to turn out in past elections. Republican Secretary of State Paul Pate said in a statement that Cruz’s mailers, which has the words “official public record” printed in red at the top, “misrepresents the role of my office, and worse, misrepresents Iowa election law.” “There is no such thing as an election violation related to frequency of voting,” said Paul, who was elected statewide as a Republican in 2014. “Any ...

On September 11, 2015, journalist and police accountability activist, Michael Picard was illegally detained for lawfully open carrying and filming police on public property. During the illegal detainment, Connecticut state troopers confiscated his gun and his camera. However, the trooper who took the phone went on to make a critical mistake — he left the camera rolling while fabricating a story to falsely charge Picard. The resultant footage provides a rare, behind the scenes look at what officers are capable of doing to people with whom they disagree. It is nothing short of jaw-droppingly infuriating. On that September night, Picard and a friend were on public property and warning ...

However, on the third time he came out for air, law enforcement on the scene told him to stay out. Like most people would do when their beloved pets are threatened with being burned alive, Joyner ignored ...

(h/t Brad Heath) The DEA has already been blasted by the DOJ's Inspector General for its confidential informant program. The DEA's informants were paid when they weren't producing intel. They were paid and sheltered from prosecution when they committed criminal acts falling outside their purview as informants. And the entire program was adrift in a sea of corruption and chaos, subject to no real oversight. To top it all off, Inspector General Michael Horowitz had to battle ...

The US has renighed on a Fishing treaty with Pacific nations. The US has refused to pay fees levied under the treaty and is using its muscle to force renegotiation of the treaty. This affects the income of small pacific nations severly and could force them to become client states of China. Unilateral actions by the US must be viewed seriously by Pacific nations and their neighbours. If the US can take high handed action with a treaty what are their intentions with other treaties? Can the US believed when it backs out of a treaty when the ink is still wet. Obviously access to exclusive territorial economic zones are what is at stake here. I expect this is payback for the pacific nations ...

Representative Trey Radel was a major proponent of Republican legislation to make food stamp recipients submit to drug tests before receiving assistance. The proposal for those on food stamps to urinate in cups to prove they’re not on drugs received widespread praise from Republicans. But only a month after he backed the proposal, police busted the Florida Republican on a charge of cocaine possession. That’s right, the Republican politician who wanted to drug test poor people – those tests incurring huge tax-payer expenses – was himself using drugs. “It’s really interesting it came on the heels of Republicans voting on everyone who had access to ...

Should the St. Louis Rams Move to Los Angeles?

One advantage of the St. Louis Rams football franchise moving to currently NFL-vacant Los Angeles (along with possibly the San Diego Chargers and, more remotely, the Oakland Raiders) is that it removes the threat of moving to Los Angeles that every NFL franchise in a marginally major league city has possessed for the last 20 years: “Submit to our extortionate demand for a taxpayer-subsidized superstadium or we’re relocating to giant Los Angeles!” An NFL team is a natural monopoly. (Currently, only the New York and San Francisco Bay metro areas have more than one franchise, although Los Angeles had two from the early 1980s through 1995, when it suddenly went to zero because ...

The legality of the cop’s conduct is ultimately irrelevant. He will be able to arrest you, if you film or otherwise record him without his prior ok.This is an important point.Legally speaking, any video made without prior permission stands on ...
