The Baltimore prosecution team did not turn over an investigative memo to defense attorneys outlining knowledge of a prior back injury claimed by Freddie Gray.  Defense attorneys now want to explore the previously undisclosed information.

BALTIMORE – Attorneys for Officer Caesar R. Goodson Jr. have filed in court an internal police document in which officers wrote that Freddie Gray once complained of a back problem, as part of the defense’s effort to gain access to Gray’s medical records.

The document had been previously sealed, after Judge Barry Williams ruled that prosecutors failed to disclose it to defense attorneys for Officer William G. Porter until his trial was underway last month. Porter’s case ended in a mistrial when jurors failed to reach a verdict. (more…)

NEW YORK NBC – Federal officials in Rochester, New York, have arrested and charged a local man who was allegedly plotting a New Year’s Eve machete attack on diners at a local restaurant in the name of ISIS.

Emanuel Lutchman, 25, an ex-con Muslim convert with mental issues, was charged with attempting to provide material support to the terrorist group, federal prosecutors said.

The FBI says he had pledged allegiance to ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, wanted to leave to U.S. to live in the caliphate, and was in contact with a reputed ISIS member in Syria — who urged him to kill non-Muslims on the holiday.

“New years [sic] is here soon. Do operations and kill some kuffar,” the overseas contact told him, the court papers allege.

The mayor of Rochester cancelled the city’s New Year’s Eve fireworks celebration Thursday so that more police could be deployed to patrol, but officials said there is no information of a credible threat. (more…)

There’s something sketchy about the entire series of events as to how San Bernardino terrorist Tashfeen Malik was able to garner a fiancee visa and enter the U.S.   Nothing about this passes the proverbial “sniff test”.

Having read, and heard numerous testimonials,  about how extensive the process is for mainly European immigrants to enter the U.S. under similar circumstances – it just appears this specific application was provided some kind of assistance to move it along so quickly with so many obvious holes in the information as provided.

Now, thanks to a congressional inquiry, we are able see the actual documents themselves; and within the information there’s even more questions, troubling questions.

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, Republican-Virginia, who alleged over the past weekend that immigration officials “did not thoroughly vet” Malik’s application, publicly released their file on Tuesday.  It is provided below in pdf format for your review.

We previously pointed out the Immigration Scam angle on December 9th….

( Via Fox News ) The ever-widening investigation of the San Bernardino terrorist massacre has revealed at least two dubious marriages that experts say expose huge loopholes in the immigration system and continue to put national security at risk.

Federal authorities have charged Enrique Marquez with marriage fraud for his allegedly sham union with Mariya Chernykh, a Russian woman whose sister married the brother of terrorist Syed Rizwan Farook after first gaining residence through an earlier marriage. And of course, Farook’s own wife, Tashfeen Malik, who was killed along with him in a shootout with police following their Dec. 2 attack, married her way into the U.S. under suspicious circumstances.

The full speech (both video and transcript) by President Obama yesterday at the National Counter Terrorism Center, McLean Virginia.  Presented below for two reasons.

• #1 To share the substantive information provided by the President of our United States.
• #2 Because, in my humble opinion, having spent considerable time following nuance and inter-governmental messaging, this speech -and included insurances- as outlined within the President’s delivery, are 180° divergent from the FBI federal complaint released yesterday in the San Bernardino terrorist investigation.

Here is President Obama’s NCTC speech:

And here’s the transcript: (more…)

You just have to read the criminal complaint to understand how supremely jaw-dropping the entire construct against Enrique Marquez actually is.  Two things to note:

• #1.)  Pay attention to the actual 911 call by Marquez on page 26, 27 – GOOD GRIEF !
• #2.) Someone please explain to me why his “Green-Card Wife”, Mariya Chernykh, aka Mariya Gigliotti, is not also indicted.  Please explain this.

The sense of it is the FBI-DOJ people who wrote this complaint are trying to send a signal to the rest of America – around a Presidential office hell bent on avoiding reality and downplaying the content. You’ve just got to read it.

It doesn’t come as a shock that Enrique Marquez would have charges filed against him.  As the straw-purchaser for the weapons used he became a co-conspirator.  However, the specific charges have not been released.

  UPDATE 5:00pm – CHARGES: 1) Conspiring to provide material support to terrorists. 2) Making a false statement in connection with acquisition of firearms. 3) Fraud and misuse of Visas, Permits and other Documents

( Via Fox News )  The friend of the terrorist couple behind the Dec. 2 attack that left 14 dead in San Bernardino has been arrested in connection with the case, Fox News has confirmed.

Marquez began speaking with federal authorities after they raided his mother’s home over the weekend. Right after the shootings, Marquez called his mother to say he was safe, but that he wouldn’t be coming home, neighbor Lorena Aguirre told The Associated Press. He later checked into a mental health facility. It’s unclear where he is now. (more…)

Hat Tip Ziiggii who points to a Judicial Watch outline of suspicious activity near the U.S. Mexico Border.

(Via Judicial Watch) A Middle Eastern woman was caught surveilling a U.S. port of entry on the Mexican border holding a sketchbook with Arabic writing and drawings of the facility and its security system, federal law enforcement sources tell Judicial Watch.

The woman has been identified as 23-year-old Leila Abdelrazaq, according to a Customs and Border Patrol (CPB) report obtained by JW this week. Abdelrazaq appeared to have two accomplices, a 31-year-old man named Gabriel Schivone and a 28-year-old woman named Leslie Mcafee. (more…)

(May 2nd 2015) The professional grievance crowd has all of the Marxist planets aligned. They have the DNC approved black female mayor Stephanie Rawlings; they have their rock star activist attorney Marilyn Mosby, and they have a strategically planned opportunity to win by losing. (more…)

Interesting sub-story to the Jessica Chambers murder investigation.  Reporter Therese Apel provides information on considerable gang and criminal sweep occurring as an outcropping of the year-long murder case.

The arrests are unrelated to the Chambers case – they are as a result of information gathered during the investigation which revealed additional criminal activity in/around the Panola County area.

MISSISSIPPI – Seventeen people have been charged in north Mississippi as a part of a major operation targeting suspected gang members called “Operation Bite Back,” officials said.

FBI Special Agent in Charge Don Alway announced the offensive early Tuesday morning.
