MARIETTA, Ga. -- Authorities in Cobb County say a man has been arrested in the 1986 double rape and murder of a Marietta woman and her 13-year-old daughter. Sharon Brady and her daughter Samantha Brady were found dead in their Marietta apartment on Sept. 12, 1986. Brady's 3-year-old daughter was also in the apartment but unharmed. The case went unsolved for nearly three decades after all leads were exhausted, investigators said. In 2013 samples were submitted to a private lab in Salt Lake City for advanced forensic DNA testing. That testing led to the arrest of 60-year-old man who lived in the same apartment complex as the Bradys in 1986, Ronald Lee Kyles. Police say he got into the apartment through a bedroom window and committed the crimes. He's charged with two counts of murder, two counts of rape, two counts of aggravated assault and one count of burglary in connection with the Brady murders. Former Marietta Police Detective Wayne Kennedy said Kyles was a suspect back in 1986 -- he was arrested two weeks later on a different charge -- but investigators didn't have evidence to make the case for murder. - (Black-on-white)

LAKELAND, Fla. – A Polk County man called deputies Wednesday morning after finding two strangers sleeping in his house. Around 8 a.m. deputies arrived at the home, in the 500 block of Old Highway in Lakeland. The homeowner had been away for five days. He returned home to find the front door kicked in. Inside, he found the two suspects asleep in a bedroom. When deputies arrived, they told the suspects to come out. The men refused. When the K9 team went into the house, the suspects tried climbing out a window. Deputies then apprehended the two men. The homeowner found three missing window A/C units. “The home had also been vandalized, with still-wet paint on the walls and carpets, causing approximately $3,800 in damage,” deputies said. The suspects have been identified as Jaquel Fleming, 18, of Lake Alfred, and Keilow Roundtree, 23, of Lakeland. The suspects told deputies they broke into the house to party and smoke weed because Fleming had recently been released from jail, according to the sheriff’s office.

Well, this is a new one. We’re accustomed to the media probing a politician’s past, reporting on some skeletons in the closet, then bracing for the almost inevitable response that the press accounts are erroneous, biased or completely fabricated. But in the case of Ben Carson vs. CNN, we have a media outlet saying, “Maybe he really wasn’t such a bad guy” and a presidential candidate saying, “Oh yes I was!” In this alternate universe, Carson — at or near the top of many Republican primary polls — is defending (if you can even call it that) his assertion that he used to be the kind of dirtbag who tried to stab a high school friend, attacked his own mother with a hammer and committed various other violent acts.
