Forensic evidence in infamous NYPD cop slay (by Black Panther) has vanished The morning after the 1972 ambush assassinations of NYPD Patrolmen Gregory Foster and Rocco Laurie, a trio of young plainclothes cops recovered vital evidence just 100 feet from the never-solved East Village murders. It was a black canvas bag, left inside the bodega across the street less than an hour before the shooting, containing the fingerprints of the only still-living suspected shooter, a then-22-year-old Black Liberation Army gunslinger named Robert “Bobby” Vickers. The group had been targeting interracial, salt-and-pepper patrol teams, taking credit the year before for the ambush assassinations of white Officer Joseph Piagentini and black Officer Waverly Jones after luring the partners to a Harlem housing project with a false 911 call. One of the killers was seen hopping up and down during the fusillade, like a gleeful child at a fireworks display. The next day, when shown a photo array, Almida would identify the woman in the group as Joanne Chesimard, who has been living under asylum in Cuba. |

Accused in triple-murder facing rare death penalty trial in Cumberland County Shawn Lee Legrand of Fayetteville goes to court on Feb. 1 for what has become uncommon in North Carolina: A death penalty trial. Legrand, 48, is accused of killing three people and of trying to kill two others in Fayetteville in November 2011. Police said he broke into a home on Ingram Street on Fayetteville's east side. There, he stabbed a woman and a man to death and shot three other people, one fatally. He fled from officers in a car chase, the Police Department said, then crashed and got into a shootout with the officers near downtown Fayetteville. No officers were hit, but they wounded Legrand and captured him. A psychiatrist wrote in September that Legrand was attempting to commit "suicide by cop" when he shot at the officers. As of September, Legrand was still suicidal and wanted to be sentenced to death, the doctor said. The killings happened on Nov. 26, 2011, a Saturday morning, in a triplex at 288 Ingram Street. In a court document, Legrand's lawyer describes the residence as "a known drug house." Legrand is accused of tying up Krystle Price Papile and Gregory Steven Fitzgerald. He stabbed Papile to death. Fitzgerald briefly escaped, but a witness said Legrand chased him down in the back yard and stabbed him there. Fitzgerald died later in the day. Ardell Paige Jr. was bound and killed with a head shot. Two others, Bennie Darwin King and Stephanie Lashaun Croom, were shot in the face. They survived. |

Black arrested for rape and murder of 73-year-old White woman in 1984 'We're just thrilled': Victim's niece reflects on arrest in 1984 Jefferson homicide - Diane Kolman recently realized she would turn 73 this year -- the same age at which her aunt, Elma Kolman, was raped and strangled in a vacant Old Jefferson lot in 1984. For decades, authorities could not identify a suspect, though she kept in touch with Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office detectives who periodically updated her on the case long after the murder investigation had gone cold. The approach of her own 73rd birthday seemed to give her a new perspective on her aunt's violent, mysterious end. "The closer I got to being her age, I just felt like she didn't want to go. I wouldn't want to go," Diane Kolman said. Then, after years of hoping, Elma Kolman's relatives finally received word this week that authorities had arrested a suspect in her death. The Sheriff's Office on Wednesday (Jan. 20) booked Donnie London, 60, with first-degree murder, said Col. John Fortunato, spokesman for the department. Through DNA testing, detectives identified London as a suspect in the April 7, 1984, killing. London, a bed-ridden resident at a Plaquemine, La., nursing home, was taken to the Jefferson Parish Correctional Center in Gretna by ambulance. He confessed to the crime, according to authorities. "It's long overdue," Diane Kolman said. "We're just thrilled because of the development. It's been 31 years, and we're just amazed that DNA was found, and they came up with a suspect." - (Black-on-white) |
2 (black) suspects arrested in deadly Cusseta home invasion - 85-year-old (White) man murdered by black beast CUSSETA, AL – During a press conference on Thursday, Lee County Sheriff Jay Jones confirmed that two suspects had been arrested and charged with capital murder in the death of 85-year-old Curtis Rudd. Jones said Devonte Travon Mike, 20, of Opelika, and Robert Jamal Wiggins, 20, of Columbus, have been arrested and charged in Rudd's death. According to the Rudd’s wife, they were awakened by a noise at their front door which resulted in the door being forced opened. Rudd’s wife was not injured in this incident. "She and her husband were in the bed and heard some sort of noise at the door,” said Captain Van Jackson with the Lee County Sheriff’s Office. “It woke them both up and when they went to see what was going on they discovered two masked men inside the home, and we know for sure one was armed with a handgun." Sheriff Jones says Rudd was armed and exchanged gunfire with the suspects and possibly wounded one of them before they fled. A short time later, investigators say a man, later identified as Wiggins, had been shot and also showed up at the ER. Prior to the home invasion at Rudd's home, at 8:30 p.m. CST on Monday, the sheriff’s office received a call from an elderly woman on Lee County Road 390 in the same general area reporting a burglary at her home. According to police, she stated that she heard a noise at her door. When she went to the door, a suspect kicked the door in and came into her residence. She struck the intruder with her walking stick several times and the suspect fled the scene. She described the suspect as a tall, thin black male. This crime is being investigated in conjunction with the home invasion that took place about four-and-a-half hours later. - (Black-on-white) |
(Black) Man accused of beating, sexually assaulting woman (with White voice) for months HOUSTON -- A Missouri City man is in jail, accused of holding a woman against her will for months, of beating her and forcing her to have sex. Strode Churchwell, 32, was just indicted this week by a Fort Bend grand jury. He's accused of the unlawful restraint, aggravated assault and sexual assault of a girlfriend. Fort Bend County Sheriff's investigators say the first attack was at a house in Crosby last June where Churchwell allegedly kept the victim for three weeks. Detectives say Churchwell would "lock her in a room naked, not allowing her to leave." The abuse was emotional, too. He would allegedly threaten her if she tried to get away. According to authorities, Churchwell released the woman in July but he didn't let her go far; he "would beat her & choke her daily," according to the narrative of an incident report. Then from August through November of last year, investigators say Churchwell locked the victim in a different apartment, where he allegedly "burned her clothes, cell phone and ID." The victim said she was beaten daily and choked with electrical wires. - (Black-on-white) |
Convicted (black) killer charged in 1999 Clayton homicide Clayton, N.C. — A Smithfield man who has already served time for murder has been charged in a 17-year-old homicide in Clayton, authorities said Friday. Jonathan Lynn Jenkins, 43, is charged with first-degree murder in the death of Elton Demond Whitfield and is being held without bond in the Johnston County jail.

Should 1st-Degree Murder Charge Stand in Teen's 'Selfie' Shooting Case? The lawyer for a 17-year-old Pennsylvania boy accused of taking a selfie next to a 16-year-old teen he had just fatally shot wants a judge to dismiss a first-degree murder charge. Defense attorney Patrick Thomassey says Maxwell Morton, of Jeannette, didn't mean to kill his friend. The attorney says in a Westmoreland County court filing on Tuesday that the Feb. 4 shooting of Ryan Mangan was an accident. Thomassey says the boys were horsing around with a loaded gun that was in Mangan's house. Morton was also 16. Police say Morton was trying to take a picture of Mangan with the cellphone aimed down the barrel of the gun before pulling the trigger. Prosecutors say Morton told police he pulled the trigger then took the selfie showing Mangan shot in the face behind him. - (Black-on-white) |

Officials confirm convicted (black) serial killer Derrick Todd Lee has died BATON ROUGE, LA - Convicted south Louisiana serial killer Derrick Todd Lee has died, officials confirmed Thursday morning. Pam Laborde, spokeswoman with the Louisiana Department of Safety and Corrections, said Lee died shortly before 9 a.m. while being treated at a hospital.

Justices say Kansas court wrongly overturned death sentences The justices ruled 8-1 that the Kansas Supreme Court was wrong to overturn the sentences of Jonathan and Reginald Carr, and Sidney Gleason, who was convicted in a separate case. The state court said juries in both cases should have been told that evidence of the men's troubled childhoods and other factors weighing against a death sentence did not have to be proved beyond a reasonable doubt. The lower court also had ruled that the Carr brothers should have had separate sentencing hearings instead of a joint one. The Supreme Court said the Kansas court's reasoning was flawed on both counts. Writing for the court, Justice Antonin Scalia said there is no requirement to tell jurors in a death sentence case that they can consider a factor favoring the defendant even if it's not proved beyond a reasonable doubt. "Jurors were told to consider any mitigating circumstance, even those not found to exist by other members of the jury," Scalia said. "Jurors would not have misunderstood these instructions to prevent their consideration of constitutionally relevant evidence." Scalia said jurors at the sentencing phase heard plenty of evidence "of how these defendants tortured their victims, acts of almost inconceivable cruelty and depravity described firsthand for the jury by the lone survivor." Prosecutors in the Carr case said the brothers were responsible for a night of mayhem and murder in 2000 when they broke into a Wichita home and, over the course of several hours, forced the three men and two women there to have sex with each other and later to withdraw money from ATMs. The women were raped repeatedly before all five were taken to a snow-covered soccer field and shot in the head. One woman survived a gunshot wound to the head after the bullet was deflected by a plastic hair clip. - (Black-on-white) |

(Black) US man jailed for murder of French graffiti artist A Detroit man convicted of murdering a French graffiti artist during a robbery was sentenced to up to 60 years in prison Thursday, US prosecutors said. The body of Bilal Berreni, 23, was discovered in a housing project in July 2013 but it took nearly a year for officials to identify him, the Detroit News reported. He was set upon by a group of young men who went looking for someone to rob after losing money in a dice game. "It sickens me that a young, talented artist who had traveled the world to pursue his passion was murdered here, thus reinforcing the stereotypes for many about our city of Detroit," Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy said when charges were announced in September. Berreni grew up in Paris and began covering the walls of his neighborhood in the 20th arrondissement when he was 15, the newspaper said. Dionte Travis, 21, was the last of three adults and one teen to be convicted in Berreni's death. He is believed to be the one to have shot Berreni in the face after spotting him near basketball courts at the now-demolish housing projects. They stole his wallet and about $300 which Berreni had hidden inside his shoes. Prosecutors told the court that Travis used his share to buy marijuana and potato chips. - (Black-on-white) |

A grand jury indicted him. He bonded out while waiting for his trial. It was after he bailed out of jail, that police say White sexually abused one of the young girls again. Assistant District Attorney Nicki Patterson says his wife told the young girl not to tell anyone. This isn’t the first time White has been in trouble with the law. Records show he’s been arrested 12 times on many different charges. He was also accused of child sex abuse in 2009 but was never prosecuted. |

(White) Houston PD officer shot (by black thug) in northeast Houston; 2 arrested HOUSTON - A Houston police officer was shot in northeast Houston on Tuesday while attempting to stop a robbery, police said. Officer Jason Rhodes, 32, who was shot in the arm, was taken to Memorial Hermann Hospital in stable condition. He was released from the hospital late Tuesday afternoon. With the bullet still in his arm, we're told Rhodes is in good condition and expected to make a full recovery and have full use of his arm. Houston police Chief Charles McClelland said during a press conference Tuesday that Rhodes saw two people just after noon with their faces covered outside a Family Dollar store. The two appeared to be getting ready to rob the store. Rhodes chased the men, and during the pursuit, shots were exchanged, the chief said. "The black man, he fell down after he jumped the gate and he shot the police officer," witness Alexandra Celestine said. At least one juvenile was arrested at the scene. The suspect was caught hiding in a shed in a resident's back yard near the Family Dollar where the incident began. A second suspect, Shelton Herald, 27, was caught by a K-9 unit in a heavily wooded area. He has a lengthy criminal record dating back to 2008, court records show. He is also a registered sex offender. "The ruthless thugs out here that are trying to take property, take things from individuals who work hard and are honest, hard-working people, and they want to take a short cut in our society and take property that belongs to others," " McClelland said. "(Rhodes) did a very good job out there. We're fortunate that he wasn't more seriously injured or possibly killed in this incident. It also highlights the danger that the men and women of HPD face every single day of trying to keep this city safe." - (Black-on-white) |

US Supreme Court won't review appeal of NH's only death row inmate - Michael Addison convicted of killing (White) police officer The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to review a petition from New Hampshire's only death row inmate to review his case. Lawyers for Michael Addison, 35, said the trial judge violated his rights by not allowing jurors to hear evidence he was remorseful and concerned about the Manchester police officer he shot in 2006 -- Michael Briggs -- after he was taken into custody. In a petition filed last year, they also challenged the judge's conduct in letting jurors hear about privileges a convict sentenced to life in prison without possibility of parole might get behind bars, including television and work opportunities. The court issued its one-sentence decision Jan. 11; it was released Tuesday. The New Hampshire Supreme Court upheld Addison's conviction in 2013 and ruled the death sentence was fair earlier this year, when compared to other cases in which an officer was killed in the line of duty. On Oct. 16, 2006, Addison was wanted by police for a string of violent crimes, including several armed robberies and a drive-by shooting. Briggs was 15 minutes from the end of his shift when he and his partner -- both on bicycle patrol -- confronted Addison in a dark alley. Jurors found that Addison shot Briggs in the head at close range to avoid arrest. - (Black-on-white) |
