Dr. Vincent DiMaio (testified in Zimmerman trial) is widely considered one of the nation’s foremost leading forensic pathologist.   He too sees through the political smokescreen deployed by Baltimore State Attorney Marilyn Mosby – Backstory.

(Via The Baltimore Sun) Asked about the Maryland medical examiner’s conclusion that Freddie Gray‘s death from injuries sustained in police custody was a homicide, Dr. Vincent DiMaio, one of the nation’s leading forensic pathologists, said: (more…)

SCOTUS did what many people figured they would do; with Chief Justice Roberts, yet again, joining the bench legislatures in a veiled effort to avoid the impression of a 5-4 ideological court.

SCOTUS – Today, by a vote of six to three, the Court agreed with the Obama administration that the subsidies are available for everyone who bought health insurance through an exchange, no matter whether that exchange was created by a state or the federal government.

Chief Justice John Roberts wrote the Court’s opinion, which Justices Anthony Kennedy, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor, and Elena Kagan all joined.

The Court acknowledged that, at first blush, the phrase “established by the State” does not appear to include the federal government. After all, the ACA specifically defines “State” as “each of the 50 States and the District of Columbia.” But other parts of the law, the Court explained, suggest that the “meaning of the phrase ‘established by the State’ is not so clear.” (more…)

Actions and Consequences

CONSEQUENCES = The above professional agitation occurred simultaneous to this next event happening. (stay with it, you’ll see): (more…)

This is rich. While simultaneously saying the people of Baltimore are too stupid a mob to stop destroying their city, Mosby claims that it was imperative she remove the constitutional protections of the police department in order to save Baltimore; and people should be thanking her for sacrificing the police for the greater good of society.

(Baltimore Sun) State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby’s announcement of charges against six officers in connection with the arrest and death of Freddie Gray restored order to Baltimore “before the entire city became an armed camp or was burned to the ground,” her office argued in a new court filing.

Michael Schatzow, Mosby’s top deputy, asked a judge this week to deny a motion by attorneys for the officers asking that the charges against their clients be thrown out because of missteps they say Mosby made.

The defense lawyers argued that by publicly announcing the charges against the six officers involved in Gray’s April 12 arrest, Mosby unforgivably biased potential jurors against their clients.

But Schatzow said seeking to restore calm was a legitimate move.

“Speaking in the middle of an ongoing riot, Mrs. Mosby was trying to calm the crowd, not incite it,” Schatzow wrote. “Her repeated pleas for peace while the criminal justice system does its work served a legitimate law enforcement function.” (link)

Gregory K Nelson wanted for spontaneous act of confederacy. BOLO !!

EAST ST. LOUIS, Ill. (KMOV.com) – Police have identified a suspect in the Tuesday night attempted murder of a trooper in East St. Louis, according to the Illinois State Police. Charges and warrants were issued Wednesday for 52-year-old Gregory K. Nelson of East St. Louis.

The St. Clair County EMA tweeted that police were fired at while on Interstate 255 near State Street around 11:30 Tuesday night.

According to officers at the shooting scene, the incident began when a trooper with the Illinois State Police pulled over Nelson for a suspected DUI. Nelson then reportedly exited his vehicle and had a conversation with the trooper before firing his weapon. (more…)

(Via The Hill) The Senate voted Wednesday to approve fast-track authority, securing a big second-term legislative win for President Obama after a months-long struggle.

The 60-38 Senate vote capped weeks of fighting over the trade bill, which pitted Obama against most of his party — including Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid (Nev.) and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).

[…] Fast-track, or trade promotion authority (TPA), will allow the White House to send trade deals to Congress for up-or-down votes. The Senate will not be able to filibuster them, and lawmakers will not have the power to amend them.

The expedited process, which lasts until 2018 and can be extended until 2021, greatly increases Obama’s chances of concluding negotiations on the TPP, which is a key goal of the president’s. (more…)

There’s something quite interesting in the Freddie Gray autopsy story that is seemingly overlooked by those who are discussing the controversial content.

It’s The Narrative That Makes The Difference !

When you go deep into the autopsy report, it is important to remember the sequence of events that facilitates the review; because, as many have mentioned, the ME analysis relies heavily on “an investigative narrative” to connect the fatal injury to the events of his arrest.

The autopsy report, as you will see, is roughly 90% dependent on the narrative delivered to the medical examiner, and only 10% constructed with the forensic evidence contained on the body of Freddie Gray.

To begin, note the medical examiner’s report is dated April 30th, 2015.

This is the day BEFORE the Baltimore Police rushed their partially complete report to Marilyn Mosby in anticipation of her direct action charges on May 1st. This means the narrative used within the ME report was not from the completed Baltimore Police investigation/report, but rather from Marilyn Mosby’s own investigative team to the ME. (more…)

Shaun King and Deray Mckesson are ideological compatriots in the “Black Lives Matter” and “F**k The Police” crowd. In addition to being a paid professional agitator King also writes for Daily Kos and is friends with numerous left-wing media personalities.

Shaun King is also a con artist, and frequently advocates for violence and criminal behavior.  However, he might have gone a tad too far this time and publicly announced his “financing for felony” program:

Pro Golfer, Bubba Watson bought one of the original 1969 Dodge Charger “General Lee’s” for $110,000, at auction.  Bubba Watson plays on the PGA Tour, therefore the PGA and Golf are now racist….

(Via Vulture) The studio behind The Dukes of Hazzard has become the latest corporate giant to get out of the confederate flag business. Vulture has learned exclusively that Warner Bros.’ consumer licensing division — which for decades has licensed images of the Duke brothers’ iconic General Lee car for use on everything from T-shirts and model cars to lunch boxes and kids’ underwear — has opted to stop sanctioning the manufacturing of any products featuring the stars and bars.

“Warner Bros. Consumer Products has one licensee producing die-cast replicas and vehicle model kits featuring the General Lee with the confederate flag on its roof — as it was seen in the TV series,” a spokesman for the company said via email. “We have elected to cease the licensing of these product categories.” (more…)

SAN DIEGO, Calif. – School across the country are reacting to a recent racially motivated church shooting in South Carolina by distancing themselves from the Old South.

Police believe 21-year-old Dylann Roof attended a bible study at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in downtown Charleston June 17 before opening fire on a dozen people, killing a total of nine black men and women, and injuring one other, The Washington Post reports.

“Federal law enforcement officials said Roof, who is white, declared his hatred for black people before opening fire, and the U.S. Justice Department has said it is investigating the attack as a hate crime,” according to the Post. (more…)
