Oh Yeah? Hmph: Dallas Police Arrest 2 Men Allegedly Connected To Joshua Browns SUPER Suspicious Murder

Source: Gary Miller / Getty Dallas PD Arrests Two Men Allegedly Responsible For Joshua Brown Murder Joshua Brown’s murder following his testimony against former Dallas police officer Amber Guyger has the department under HEAVY suspicion by Black folks and beyond. Earlier this week police announced that they believed Joshua was murdered over a weed deal gone bad. A story hardly anyone believes. According to NBCNews , the cops say that three men traveled from Alexandria, Louisiana to Dallas, Texas, a four-and-a-half-hour drive, to buy some Mary Jane from Joshua. Why anyone would travel SO far for marijuana when it is readily available in damn near every state in America is one detail that makes Dallas PD’s story seem like BS, but we digress. Michael Mitchell, 32, who officials say was the suspected getaway driver in the Friday night slaying, was arrested at a motel in Marksville, Louisiana, Tuesday evening, Avoyelles Parish Sheriff’s Office Chief Deputy Steven Martel said. Jacquerious Mitchell, 20, had previously been arrested and was in custody at a hospital, Dallas police Assistant Chief Avery Moore said at a news conference Tuesday. The third suspect, 22-year-old Thaddeous Green is still at large. According to Jacquerious, Joshua shot him in the chest during a fight with Green and Green shot Joshua twice in response. Green took Brown’s backpack and the gun used to shoot Jacquerious Mitchell and the three suspects fled the scene, Moore said. The suspects dropped Jacquerious Mitchell off at a hospital, the assistant police chief said. Police confiscated 12 pounds of marijuana, 149 grams of THC cartridges and $4,157 in cash during a search of Brown’s home, Moore said. So, what they want us to believe is that Joshua Brown served as an eyewitness against the police in a HIGHLY publicized murder trial while simultaneously serving pounds of loud to some random cats from OT? Yeah, ok. Here’s what Dallas police Assistant Chief Avery Moore had to say about the “rumors”: “As you know, there’s been speculation and rumors that have been shared by community leaders claiming that Mr. Brown’s death was related to the Amber Guyger trial and somehow the Dallas Police Department was responsible,” Moore said. “I assure you that is simply not true, and I encourage those leaders to be mindful of their actions moving forward because their words have jeopardized the integrity of the city of Dallas as well as the Dallas Police Department.” We don’t believe you, you need more people!

Where The Cash At: R. Kelly Is Being Accused Of Hiding Hundreds Of Thousands Of Dollars In Childhood Friend’s Bank Account

Source: Pool / Getty R. Kelly Is Being Accused Of Stashing Hundreds of Thousands of Dollars According to The Blast , R. Kelly is being accused by prosecutors of hiding a boatload of cash in his childhood friend’s bank accounts. Court documents show that prosecutors believe the R&B legend is flat out lying about being broke and that he has been diverting his music royalty payments to a third party. Prosecutors state: “the defendant’s contention that he has “almost no financial resources” is also misleading. In fact, the defendant continues to receive hundreds of thousands of dollars in connection with royalties he is owed for his music. The government’s investigation has revealed that earlier this year, the defendant re-directed those royalties to the bank account of a childhood friend. Regardless of where those funds are being held, however, they belong to the defendant and, at any time, the defendant can redirect those funds – and future royalty proceeds earned – to an account in his name.” If true, things could get even uglier for Kelly as he sits in jail already facing a slew of other charges.

Jesus Take The Wheel: Florida Woman Attempted To Kill Children In Car Crash After Believing She Was Cursed

Source: Joe Raedle / Getty A Flordia Mom Allegedly Tried To Kill Her Kids Because She Believed She Was Cursed According to the Ocala Times , a Florida mom is accused of telling her four kids to take off their seatbelts before crashing into a tree. She is now facing four counts of domestic attempted murder. Calicia Williams was allegedly driving erratic before she crashed into a tree after striking a curb and traveling across a grassy median. Members from Ocala Fire Rescue advised officers that none of Williams’ children were wearing seat belts belts during the accident. When officials arrived, Williams was observed making “”spontaneous utterances while her children were being treated by paramedics. People on the scene reported that Williams was traveling at a high rate of speed and had told the children to take off their seatbelts and stretch out their hands. She also reportedly yelled out “The devil can’t hurt you. He only hurts bad people. You have the light of Jesus in you and only Jesus can cure us.” The children sustained injuries consistent with not wearing seatbelts or proper restraints and their condition is unknown. Williams will be transported to the Marion County Jail once released from the hospital.

Delusional Dustmite: Did Stacey Dash Cluelessly Claim White On Her Arrest Report?!

Source: Dr. Billy Ingram / Getty Stacey Dash’s Arrest Record Lists Her As White Stacey Dash is getting dragged back to unemployment over that recent viral arrest. As previously reported Stacey was taken into custody this week following a physical fight with her husband Jeffrey Marty. What REALLY got people talking, however, was the public arrest record that went viral this week showing Stacey’s race marked as W a.k.a WHITE. Stacey Dash was listed as “white” on the race section of her arrest record. pic.twitter.com/VRtyf1YnfY — Travis Akers (@travisakers) October 3, 2019 According to TMZ however, it was all just a misunderstanding, and while yes, Stacey is a deteriorating dustmite—she’s not a DELUSIONAL dustmite. Stacey’s arresting officer apparently mistook her for a Latina and that’s how that mistake was made on the record. A spokesperson for the Pasco Sheriff’s Department told TMZ : “Stacey Dash was never asked her race by the arresting deputy, nor did she volunteer any information about her race. The arresting deputy assumed that she was Hispanic.” He continues, “However, the Pasco Sheriff’s Office follows the Department of Justice Uniform Crime Reporting standards and, according to the DOJ reporting requirements the only allowable races are: Asian/Hawaiian/Pacific Islander, Black/African American, American Indian/Alaskan Native, Unknown, or White.” Despite the clarification that Stacey actually doesn’t think she’s white, she’s STILL getting relentlessly roasted. Stacey Dash got the damn NERVE to have Lauretta as her middle name and wanna mark her race as White?! LAURETTA! pic.twitter.com/T3sSgNLX2y — Stevie G. (@stevechristo_) October 3, 2019 Correct me if I’m wrong but her mama named her Lauretta right? It’s actually Lauretta Stacey Dash? A 52 year-old chocolate brown woman named Lauretta is out here tryna pass? — Miz Jenkins (@TheChangeU12C) October 2, 2019 Stacey’s manager has also released a statement on the “Clueless” actress’ arrest and he’s requesting privacy—-good luck with that! The manager made sure however to clarify that any report that Stacey’s husband was abusive is inaccurate. “On the evening of Sunday, September 29, 2019, actress Stacey Dash and her husband had a marital dispute in their Tampa, FL suburb; Pasco County Deputies were dispatched to their residence. No charges were pressed by her husband, however, Deputies arrested Ms. Dash peacefully, as a formality. Ms. Dash’s husband appeared in court today, September 30th, on her behalf and Ms. Dash was released from the Land O’ Lakes detention facility. No further legal action is pending.” “The marital dispute, while personal and unfortunate, has since been blown out of proportion. An earlier report on TMZ.com said her manager told TMZ that she was attacked by her husband – both the source’s relationship to Ms. Dash and the events of the evening were misrepresented.” “Ms. Dash is a domestic abuse survivor from a previous relationship and has championed for other abuse victims to speak up. The untruthfulness being reported saddens Ms. Dash and her family – no further comments will be made and we ask that Ms. Dash and her family’s privacy will be respected.” What do YOU think about the lastest Stacey Dash development???

Bebe Rexha is the Worst Ass on TikTok of the Day

This just in – Bebe Rexha is as bad at TikTok as she is at being a popstar. The fat 30 something who had her hand in the cookie jar of the record industry, and clearly in the ACTUAL cookie jar, was able to convince her colleagues to record an album for her. So she created her persona, got her outfits, did the whole creative direction around it, to hit the popstar thing running, not ACTUAL running, she’s more of a sitter…but you know time wasn’t on her side, she was old. The fat thing is only marketable to a certain extent to other fat girls because being an old popstar outweighed being a body empowered fat chick, not ACTUAL outweigh, I mean she’s a pig… Anyway, her old age pop act reminded me of Halloween when all the old girls from the Office get together and dress like Charlie’s Angels or something…you know old girls in slutty outfits being fat and gross but having a good time. Harmless… As it turns out, her TikTok act is similar…like a mom who came across TikTok and felt the need to try it out, only not a hot mom…but a fat mom who can’t seem to drop the baby weight, cuz the cookies in that cookie jar are so GOOD….YUM… The post Bebe Rexha is the Worst Ass on TikTok of the Day appeared first on DrunkenStepFather.com .

Sofia Richie: See Her Keeping Up With The Kardashians Debut!

It's not enough that Sofia Richie is trying to save Scott Disick's reality show . She wants a real reality career, and she's getting it. On this Keeping Up With The Kardashians preview teaser, Sofia makes her debut on the long-running series. We see her with Scott and Kourtney and, well, things admittedly get awkward . In the teaser trailer for Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Scott gets pretty blunt about spending time with Sofia and Kourtney together. “It is a really awkward situation,” the self-described Lord confesses. He is not the only one who feels that way. Speaking to the Konfessional Kamera, Kourtney admits: “It gets … bizarre.” “I want you and Sofia to be comfortable,” Scott is shown telling Kourtney. We then see Sofia eating beside Scott, pointing out that his behavior changes when it's not just the two of them. “You're a lot more sophisticated with me when Kourtney's around,” Sofia observes. Yes, we're absolutely going to unpack that momentarily. “But it does take, like, a toll on me,” Scott admits to Kourtney, speaking of his girlfriend and his ex spending time with him simultaneously. With a definite shift in tone, we hear a voiceover of Scott saying: “This trip has so much pressure!” Much of the teaser features Scott, Kourtney, and Sofia's faces while they are indoors. It's a very short trailer, so we're not surprised that there isn't a lot of visual context provided. Given that they're clearly at multiple locations in various outfits, fans can definitely look forward to more than one scene (obviously). And the end of the teaser gets a bit spicier. It appears that Scott, Kourtney, and Sofia all share a hot tub at one point. That's a little steamy … pun semi-intended. We promised to unpack Sofia's comment about Scott's behavior changing around Kourtney, and we intend to keep that. Notice that she didn't say that he changes his demeanor while they're around other people. Plehty of coulples do that. Sofia specifically accuses: “You're a lot more sophisticated with me when Kourtney's around.” That means that, of all of the people the two of them have spent time with, he does this specifically around Kourtney. And we think that we can explain why. One, everybody wants tos how off to their ex. They want to show that they've matured and are doing well for themselves. Two is probably that Scott is simply nervous about this girlfriend-meets-ex situation. Anxiety alters your behavior, even subconsciously. (That's why some of us are so polite!) But there's also the huge, mostly unspoken factor of the age gap. Kourtney turned 40 last April. At the time, Sofia was only 20 (she turned 21 in August). And Scott has been inside of them both. it is natural to speak differently to different people, but Scott may be defaulting to suit Kourtney rather than his much younger girlfriend. (Also, why is Scott giving off such weird Michael Scott from The Office energy in this still? Experts are baffled) Honestly, we already know that Sofia and Kourtney get along reasonably well — well enough to successfully vacation together with Scott. While this tragically is unlikely to turn into a polyamorously ever after situation with the three of them, we'll settle for amicable co-parenting. Kourt isn't just happy for Scott — she's glad that Sofia is a stabilizing influence in Scott's life. When Scott is a better person, he's a better parent.
