This is interesting and deserves being back on the radar.  In South Carolina the prosecution of Officer Michael Slager (Walter Scott Shooting) continues.

In a remarkable similarity to the fraudulent prosecutorial investigation of State Attorney Angela Corey in the ’12/’13 Zimmerman case, in South Carolina another rogue and racially inspired prosecution appears to be heading down a similar path adverse to Officer Slager.

Despite defense requesting “preservation of evidence”, and despite a judges order affirming the presentation, the State of South Carolina prosecutorial team shipped the Taser out of state without trying to protect DNA evidence: (more…)

CALIFORNIA – San Bernardino shooter Syed Rizwan Farook traveled to Saudi Arabia in the summer of 2014, according to Saudi and U.S. officials.

Two U.S. government officials have also said there’s information about Farook traveling to Saudi Arabia for the Hajj in 2013.

According to a new CNN report Chicago Mayor Rham Emanuel has fired the police chief in the wake of the Laquan McDonald shooting and community outrage over the length of time it took the police department to act to the shooting.

(CNN) Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel said Tuesday that he has asked for the resignation of Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy.

The announcement at a news conference came amid angry protests in Chicago over the way the city responded when a white police officer shot a black teenager 16 times in October 2014. Dashboard camera footage of Laquan McDonald’s killing was not released until last week after a judge ordered it be made public.

“Superintendent McCarthy knows that a police officer is only as effective as when he has the trust of those he serves,” said Emanuel, speaking at City Hall. (more…)

We don’t have all the details on this case (have not followed from outset) but we are getting swamped with predictive information claiming all hell is about to break loose in Chicago.  Reportedly a video shows a white police officer shooting a black suspect under arrest – Police have been very sketchy.

(Via Reuters) A white Chicago policeman was charged on Tuesday with murdering a black teenager, a prosecution that was speeded up in hopes of staving off a fresh burst of the turmoil over race and police use of deadly force that has shaken the United States for more than a year.

Officer Jason Van Dyke, 37, was denied bail at a hearing in Chicago’s main criminal courthouse hours after top Cook County prosecutor Anita Alvarez announced charges of first-degree murder. If convicted, Van Dyke could face 20 years to life in prison. (more…)

Another western media meme goes *POOF* as the French Prime Minister Manuel Valls on Thursday said some of those linked to the Paris attacks had taken advantage of the chaos caused by Europe’s worst migration crisis since World War II “to slip in” unnoticed.

“These individuals took advantage of the refugee crisis.. of the chaos, perhaps, for some of them to slip in” to France, he said.   “Others were in Belgium already. And others, I must remind you, were in France,” he said. (link)

This admission comes as information surfaces that Moroccan intelligence teams helped France find the primary ringleader of the attacks: (more…)
