Report: Charlotte's Keith Scott Had History of Violence Including Arrest for Shooting At Police…

According to a story in The Christian Times, who they claim verified with The Charlotte Observer, Keith Lamont Scott had a two decades long history of gun violence, including an arrest/conviction for shooting at police officers in Texas.   The New York Times has previously reported on his troubled past but not the 2005 shooting at police incident:

(Via NYT) […] According to court records, Mr. Scott was born in South Carolina, was about six feet tall and weighed 230 to 250 pounds. While living in South Carolina in the 1990s, he was charged with a number of offenses including check fraud, aggravated assault and carrying a concealed weapon. Later, he moved to Texas where he shot and wounded a man in San Antonio in 2002, for which he was convicted and sentenced, in 2005, to seven years in prison. He was released in 2011. (link)

The Charlotte Observer also reported on Scott’s extensive criminal career –SEE HERE– and we did independently identify a criminal record in Texas – SEE HERE – which aligns with all of these reports.

nc-riot-19-keith-scott(Via Christian Times) Keith Scott had a long police record that included gun violations. Christian Times Newspaper has learned, and it has been confirmed by the Charlotte Observer, that Scott was convicted in April 2004 of a misdemeanor assault with a deadly weapon charge in Mecklenburg County, and other charges were dismissed: including felony assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill, assault on a female, and communicating threats.  Scott was also charged with assault with intent to kill in 1995.  [ Texas Arrest Record Here ]
The most shocking find in Scott’s record, however, is what occurred in Bexar County, Texas in 2005.  In March of that year, Scott was sentenced to 15 months in state prison for evading arrest, and in July, he was consecutively sentenced to seven years on a conviction of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

Oklahoma – Tulsa County District Attorney Steve Kunzweiler filed first degree manslaughter charges against police officer Betty Shelby, who shot and killed 40-year-old Terence Crutcher on Sept. 16.  Dashcam and aerial footage of the shooting and its aftermath showed Crutcher walking away from Shelby with his arms in the air and attempting to reach inside his vehicle:

(Via NBC4) […] Shelby, who joined the Tulsa Police Department in December 2011, was en route to a domestic violence call when she encountered Crutcher’s vehicle abandoned on a city street, straddling the center line. Shelby did not activate her patrol car’s dashboard camera, so no footage exists of what first happened between the two before other officers arrived. (more…)

Hillary Clinton Just Made it Weird – Bizarre Labor Union Teleconference Message…

hillary-weirdYesterday Hillary Clinton used a video conference to address the Laborers’ International Union of North America (LIUNA).
The union conference was being held in Las Vegas and instead of speaking to the audience live, Secretary Clinton used a teleconference link to deliver her 2016 campaign message to the audience.   One of the odd messages delivered to the audience was a seemingly frustrated rhetorical question Secretary Clinton asked the audience about her position in the polls:

  “why am I not 50 points ahead”…

But it was not only the content of the rhetorical question that raised some eyebrows, it was also the way in which she delivered her entire message.  The result is an autonomic response of discomfort for the viewing audience.  She made it weird.  Watch:
