A serious issue addressed while carrying a sense of humor…

A critical element in training the “Safari Park Rules” is teaching the game wardens how to avoid their instincts when around predators.

FERGUSON • The Department of Justice announced Thursday that it is hosting a training session through Friday about fair and impartial policing for commanders of local departments, including Ferguson’s.
The effort is part of the Justice Department’s Collaborative Reform Initiative within the St. Louis County police that started after Ferguson Officer Darren Wilson shot Michael Brown in August.
President Barack Obama then asked Attorney General Eric Holder to send the agency’s Community Oriented Policing Services director, Ron Davis, to work with police officials in Ferguson.
The two-day training includes command-level law enforcement leadership from St. Louis County, St. Louis, the Missouri Highway Patrol and Ferguson police, as well as local community members. (more…)

Reminder: This was all well planned out to happen months ago. Now they are in execution mode.  President Obama and Eric Holder are publishing/broadcasting the rules for the Safari Park.

Exponentially occurring, and not-so-subtle, upticks indicate a soon to be announced Grand Jury decision.  Remember the first group President Obama met with on Wednesday after the election?  Remember Fred P Pestello?  Well, now we have AG Holder proclaiming:

[…]   Holder called Pestello’s leadership, “nothing short of exemplary” in his managing of the Occupy SLU protest (link)

Saint Louis Today –  U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder has offered high praise to St. Louis University President Fred Pestello, commending him for his handling of last month’s Occupy SLU protest.

In a letter delivered to the university late last month, Holder called Pestello’s leadership, “nothing short of exemplary” in his managing of the Occupy SLU protest.

Occupy SLU was an outgrowth of wider protests of police shootings that have taken hold in the area since the Aug. 9 shooting of Michael Brown by Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson. (more…)

Charlotte North Carolina Mayor Patrick Cannon was arrested and convicted earlier in the year on massive public corruption charges.  During an FBI sting Cannon took tens of thousands of dollars in bribes – including $20,000 in cash delivered in a briefcase in February to the mayor’s office where he also solicited $1 million more.
The media dropped most of the explosive story because Cannon was doing some seriously shady stuff during the 2012 DNC convention and the MSM didn’t want to investigate the corruption.   However, after the convention, in return for money, trips, hotel rooms and access to a luxury SouthPark apartment, Cannon promised to help FBI agents posing as potential commercial investors with zoning, parking and other city-related issues.
North Carolina – Two weeks after he lost his right to vote, former Charlotte mayor and convicted felon Patrick Cannon apparently cast a ballot.
That vote would violate Cannon’s bond and could put him back before a judge, said Greg Forrest, chief of the U.S. Probation Office in Charlotte.  It may even mean the 47-year-old Democrat goes to prison sooner.
“Let’s cut to the chase: He shouldn’t have done that, and we’re going to talk to him tomorrow (Wednesday),” Forrest told the Observer. (more…)

On the night he was “captured” there were many, well, observations that just didn’t align with the previous narrative as delivered.  Frein was clean shaven, well kept, and did not appear to present post-capture in a manner consistent with media reports. 
During an earlier and generally ignored FBI interview (with a few professional trackers) the quiet opinion was that Eric Frein was “playing a game” with law enforcement.  To that end a few opined that his “appearances” were intentional, and he was staying inside the containment zone purposely to continue the hide-and-seek approach. 
Like Eric Rudolph, who evaded capture for five years, not only did Frein know the region far better than his trackers, he was well prepared -and exceptionally well geared- to spend the winter, if he chose. Now this….
(Via CBS) The former fugitive charged with ambushing a Pennsylvania state police barracks had a laptop computer and used the Internet while evading hundreds of law enforcement officials, according to court documents released Tuesday.
State police found the laptop and two storage drives inside an abandoned airplane hangar near the spot where Eric Frein was captured Thursday night, according to a search warrant inventory. Frein told authorities he used unprotected Wi-Fi hotspots to connect to the Internet during his 48-day flight, documents said, raising the possibility he knew where police were focusing their search efforts each day.
