Today the African Union, representing the entire African Continent, held a ceremony to honor the thousands of Africans who have died at sea trying to reach Europe. Attendance was, well, um…

There’s an irony here, a painful truth, for those who wish to admit it. (more…)
On Tuesday April 28th, just two days prior to announcing charges against the Baltimore Six police officers in the death of Freddie Gray, Marilyn Mosby gave a speech where she stated: “so we will pursue, justice by any and all means necessary” (video segment @1:40):
On Wednesday April 29th Baltimore Police Chief Batts was told by sources from the State Attorney office that Mosby was going to make an announcement by the end of the week. To the surprise of the investigative team Batts gave Mosby’s office the investigative report on Thursday April 30th, even before it was completed.
The same urgency message was relayed to the city Medical Examiner.
[…] homicide investigators who were briefed by the medical examiner’s office believed the examiner’s autopsy report would likely find the cause of death to fall short of homicide. (link)
However, on the morning of Friday May 1st, the Medical Examiner signed off on a copy of his report and included the cause of death as “homicide”. Oddly, labeling the death as “homicide” while simultaneously stating the “fatal injury occurred inside the transport van“. (more…)
Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake did not like the challenging questions from Fox News in her presser regarding the severe increase in homicides and shootings – cast against the backdrop of fewer arrests by law enforcement who feel under attack from city leadership.
The Baltimore Sun is reporting today that attorneys for the Baltimore Six police officers have file a motion for a change of venue.
[…] In the 85-page motion, the lawyers representing officers Caesar Goodson, Edward Nero, Garrett Miller, Brian Rice, Alicia White and William Porter outlined a “presumption of prejudice” they say exists in the city that necessitates moving the trial.
[…] “Any effort through the voir dire process to seat six fair and impartial juries for these Baltimore City Police Officer would be futile given the fact that the events surrounding this case have impacted every citizen of Baltimore,” the attorneys wrote. (link)
(HatTip Froggie) Newly discovered video shows Baltimore State Attorney Marilyn Mosby while she was in college and unmarried (going by her maiden name of Marilyn James) in 2000-2001 when she appeared on the Judge Judy show (Season #5, Episode #119).
On the show she is suing a building business owner for damages as a result of his taking custody of her apartment (above the shop) while she was home between college semesters.
Born 01/22/1980 Marilyn Mosby (James) would have been approximately 20-years-old when this show was taped.
Also Froggie points out something interesting. Check out the type of Twitter Messages that Marilyn Mosby favors on her social media. Biased much?

#BLM and #FTP provocateurs are outraged and organizing protests. The video of the incident is below the fold – The Justice Department, Civil Rights Division, has promised to review the case and decision.
CLEVELAND – A judge ruled Saturday morning that Cleveland police officer Michael Brelo is not guilty of two charges of voluntary manslaughter in connection with the Nov. 29, 2012 police chase and shooting that ended in the deaths of two people.
Cuyahoga Common Pleas Judge John P. O’Donnell said that while Brelo did fire lethal shots at Timothy Russell and Malissa Williams, other officers did as well.
O’Donnell also concluded that Brelo was not guilty of the lesser included offense of felonious assault because he was legally justified in his use of deadly force.
Brelo, 31, was one of more than 100 police officers to participate in a 22-minute police chase, and one of 13 who shot at a 1979 Chevy Malibu. The shooting ended in the deaths of the driver, Timothy Russell and the passenger, Malissa Williams. (more…)
[HatTip Re-NewsIt] Remember the Valdosta State University student, Eric Sheppard Jr., who became a wanted armed felon after making threats against the university students following his flag stomping protest? (Full Backstory)
We previously exposed Sheppard’s affiliation with radical Islamic terrorists, and his affinity for, and expressions of, violence.
Apparently Eric Sheppard Jr. is still on the loose, and now he’s making terrorist threats against a local school community while thumbing his nose toward law enforcement who are making feeble, if any, efforts to capture him. “Many still question the possibility of my surrendering to the people who call themselves ‘authorities’”. “To give you a simple answer, No. I will not turn myself over to any white man”.
“Many still question the possibility of my surrendering to the people who call themselves ‘authorities’”. “To give you a simple answer, No. I will not turn myself over to any white man”.
Sheppard has contacted local Georgia media to state his intentions to cause a violent confrontation at Lownde’s High School graduation ceremonies and has stated he will “annihilate” anyone who comes after him.
(Via Valdosta Times) […] The comments were made in a rambling, profanity-laced “memorandum ultimatum” sent to The Valdosta Daily Times condemning white people and local police.
A brief video showing Sheppard wearing sun glasses and inside what appeared to be an SUV accompanied his statement. The video referenced a protest planned in conjunction with the graduation over the disputed death of teenager Kendrick Johnson at the high school more than two years ago. (more…)
