Howard attempted to publicly plead his case to the media just prior to being booked for the alleged murder attempt. #UPDATE : Suspected of allegedly shooting at a BRPD officer, 21-year-old Raheem Howard made a dramatic plea of innocence while being taken into custody. He will be charged with attempted first-degree murder and illegal use of a weapon. > > https://t.co/Le7iPHG8Ap pic.twitter.com/az0GFVAw1O — WAFB (@WAFB) August 11, 2018 A few weeks later, Baton Rouge Police Chief Murphy Paul announced that the officer Hamadeh did have any of his cameras turned on, not the body camera, not the dashboard camera, and the rear camera was facing down. Thus, no footage of the incident was available. Howard’s lawyer believes this was 100& intentional according to a previous WAFB report. “A deliberate act,” Rep. James said. “His body cam that we’ve been asked to pay for and the citizens of this community have been asked to foot the bill for, was purposely left off. His dash cam, that this community has been asked to pay for, purposely left off. A third camera, which breeds that trust and transparency, turned downward. We’re asking that the Baton Rouge Police Department live up to what they’ve been asked of us.” In September East Baton Rouge Parish District Attorney Hillar Moore announced that there will be no charges because, surprise, there is NO evidence. Finally after a month of sitting in prison for being labeled an attempted cop killer, Raheem Howard was set free from prison on October 2. #BREAKING : Raheem Howard, who was accused of shooting at a BRPD officer before charges were dropped due to a lack of evidence, was released early Tuesday.

At this time, Officer Hamadeh is still employed at the department. That needs to change ASAP.

Newark Woman Arrested For Trying To Eat Her Friend’s Face And Biting A Cop Normally when we hear about women trying to eat their friends , there’s more pleasure than pain. Not in this case… Via DailyMail A woman has been arrested after allegedly trying to eat her friend’s face before biting her boyfriend and a police officer during a drug-fueled rampage. Mother Lindie Stewart, 37, was arrested in Newark, New York, on Sunday after police found her being held down in a driveway by her friend, Michael Maricle. When cops arrived, Maricle’s face was bleeding and he told them he was trying to stop her from attacking him again. Haven’t heard many of these stories since people stopped doing bath salts… ‘Michael was holding Lindie down on the driveway and was bleeding from his face. I went to grab Lindie to restrain her,’ Rouse told police. ‘I asked Michael what was happening and he said Lindie began biting his neck and was trying to eat his face and chin. ‘I then watched the policeman place Michael in handcuffs and then he quickly came over to help me. ‘While I was holding Lindie, she began biting me in the center of my chest and my armpit which caused me to experience pain and discomfort.’ Oh yeah, she also said: ‘She also said she is taking Alice to the Moon and that she would kill. She also kept saying “lol lol lol”.’ Cocaine might be one helluva drug, but, uh, naw. HELL naw. Image via Facebook/Newark PD
Jack Reacher , protagonist of Lee Child’s brilliant series of airport pulp, has sold nearly 40 million books. He’s also blonde, ugly, 6’5” and 250 lbs, which means the difference between the Reacher that fans love and Tom Cruise , who plays him in his long-awaited film debut, is literally sizable: Ten inches and 90 lbs, to be exact, and a whole lot of handsome. Child’s Jack Reacher is homeless, and for the well-coiffed Cruise, playing a guy who shops as Goodwill is as much of a stretch as hoping no one will notice his larger-than-life ex-military cop is barely taller than his co-star Rosamund Pike . (Which in real life, he’s not — Pike towers over him by two inches.) In the original novel, One Shot , Reacher spends half of the book pacing the surprisingly mean streets of a sleepy Midwestern city trying to unravel a shocking sniper attack that left five civilians dead. The flick opens with the crime — watching through crosshairs as the killer selects his targets is agonizingly tense — and in eight minutes, it’s solved and the murderer is in prison. Unlike in the book, McQuarrie shows us something the police don’t know: the face of the killer is different than the man behind bars. Yet not only is the evidence against the accused so perfect that his lawyer (Pike) merely hopes to get his sentence reduced to life in prison, here comes Jack Reacher, the accused’s old enemy, rolling into town on a Greyhound bus to make sure he gets the death penalty. Reacher is a brute with an odd moral code. When someone has what he wants — be it information he needs or a sports car he wants to borrow — he’ll twist their arms (literally) until it’s his. And he’s not just mean to men: he’ll leave women alone in dark alleys, and he’ll call a barely legal bimbo a “slut.” But if someone hurts that slut — at least, someone besides him — he turns into a heat-seeking missile of muscles, a jackal who won’t stop running until he catches his prey. So bringing Jack Reacher to the screen means Cruise has a lot to measure up to, but instead of swinging for the fences, he bunts. His Reacher is like every other character Cruise has ever played: Tough, cocky, and the smartest guy in the room. It’s the Tom Cruise paradox; he’s a great actor who’s stopped acting. He can’t vanish into a role, but then he doesn’t have to. Audiences show up to his films just to see his latest ass-kicking adventure, which makes Cruise the inverse James Bond — instead of different actors playing the same character, he’s one actor who plays the same character under a dozen different names. You could pretend his entire last decade onscreen is just Ethan Hunt going deep undercover to save the day. Luckily for director Christopher McQuarrie , Jack Reacher is also tough, cocky, and the smartest guy in the room. A former Army policeman and genius investigator, he’s always three steps ahead of his rivals and he loves making sure they know it. He’s so physically gifted that he makes his attackers look like the Three Stooges, and so mercilessly aggressive that he aims straight for his enemies’ eyes, knees and groins. Even hanging up a payphone, his elbow snaps like he’d rather be breaking someone’s neck. And yet, even this film’s last minute name change from One Shot to Jack Reacher does nothing to convince us that we’re watching a fictional Army vet named Jack Reacher — we’re watching Tom Cruise , and for fans of his, that’s enough. For fans of Child’s books, however, the pleasures are more complicated. With, oh, 100 of the book’s 376 pages occupied by Reacher’s inward deductive reasoning, McQuarrie faced the risk of a flick that was all voiceover. Instead, he flips the script; Cruise silently pads around looking smart and we’re meant to see his the gears in his head grinding. The film’s more fun when he finally opens his mouth to insult his ever-growing list of enemies, including a sour DA ( Richard Jenkins ), a cop who accuses him of murder ( David Oyelowo ), some rednecks (Alexia Fast and Josh Helman), a couple of vicious hitmen (Michael Raymond-James and Jai Courtney , co-star of the next Die Hard ) and the big boss, a four-fingered Gulag survivor named The Zec ( Werner Herzog ). Herzog is perfect for the role: he’s made a career of grimly muttering “death” and “murder.” He’s only in the movie for ten minutes — far too short — but he has one stand-out scene where he orders an underling to bite off his own thumb or get shot in the head, an at-any-cost survival instinct that Herzog’s been hunting for in his own films for decades. Alas, the weakness of the film is the weakness of the book. The Zec’s evil plan is both byzantinely complicated and pifflingly mundane. We already know the face of the killer. What we don’t know is why , and the big reveal is more of a “Huh?” McQuarrie, the writer of The Usual Suspects who also adapted One Shot himself, is still finding his legs as a director. Jack Reacher has the bright and empty look of television and is a bit unsteady as it wavers between action and laughs. But the flick is great entertainment as Reacher headbutts his way to the Zec, dutifully and casually giving nods to devotees of the books, even casting Lee Child in a cameo as a police officer who returns to Reacher the only thing he owns: a portable toothbrush. (Explains Reacher in the book Bad Luck and Trouble , “I carry a spare shirt, pretty soon I’m carrying spare pants. Then I’d need a suitcase. Next thing I know, I’ve got a house and a car and a savings plan and I’m filling out all kinds of forms.”) Beat by beat, Jack Reacher is just like Child’s paperbacks in the best possible way: it’s fast, fun, and smarter than it looks. Will it give Tom Cruise another hit action franchise? It deserves to. Hollywood has 17 other Jack Reacher books to pick from, any one of which would fit seamlessly into the Cruise canon. But for Child, the real question is, how many hit films will it take for Cruise fans to remember Jack Reacher’s name? Amy Nicholson is a critic, playwright and editor. Her interests include hot dogs, standard poodles, Bruce Willis, and comedies about the utter futility of existence. Follow her on Twitter . Follow Movieline on Twitter .
The naked man who sparked talk of a zombie apocalypse after eating another man’s face on Saturday has been identified as Rudy Eugene, age 31. Eugene, of North Miami Beach, was shot multiple times and killed following a grisly assault on the Downtown exit ramp of the MacArthur Causeway. The Miami Herald , whose own surveillance cameras caught the incident on tape, reports that Eugene had been arrested eight times since age 16. “I wouldn’t say he had [a] mental problem but he always felt like people was against him type of attitude,” his ex-wife Jenny Ductant told Local 10. “No one was for him, everyone was against him.” A neighbor said his former home was foreclosed on in 2011, and homeless people in the area said he was frequently spotted wandering around there. The identity of Eugene’s victim, believed to be a homeless man, has not been released. He survived having his face eaten but is in serious condition. An eyewitness riding his bike on the causeway said he flagged down a cop after coming across Eugene, stark naked, chewing another man’s face. Man Shot, Killed After Eating Another Man’s Face “The guy was tearing him to pieces, so I told him, ‘Get off!'” Larry Vega said. “The guy just kept eating the other guy away, like, ripping his skin.” Vega said when the policeman yelled at Eugene to back away, he merely raised his head “with pieces of flesh in his mouth,” growled, and resumed chewing. The officer then shot Eugene once, but Eugene continued to attack the man’s face, prompting the officer to shoot again and again until he was dead. It has been reported, although unconfirmed, that Rudy Eugene was under the influence of cocaine and/or LSD at the time of the attack. That, or he was an actual zombie and the apocalypse is near.

September 15 2:47 P.M. Brian Wood spent his life thrilling millions of faceless gamers, but his last moment was spent saving the lives of those he loved most. Wood, a 33 year-old lead designer at popular game developer Relic Entertainment, was on his way back to his Washington home when his wagon was struck by an oncoming Chevy Blazer being driven by a 21 year-old woman believed to be driving under the influence. With his pregnant wife Erin in the passenger seat, Wood swerved his car to put himself directly in the path of the oncoming SUV — a decision that ultimately cost him his life, but protected his wife and unborn child from harm. Two other passengers riding in the backseat of the Blazer were also killed. “All the policeman say that if we had hit the car head-on all of us would be dead,” Erin Wood told The Province. “At the very last second (Brian) braked really hard and turned right so that he would be put in the path of the SUV and not me and the baby, and that is the only thing that saved us both.” “He was always sacrificing himself for me and the baby,” she added. But while Wood's impossibly brave act left a permanent void in the life of Erin Wood, the same people who Brian strived to please with his work have returned the favor with a striking show of support for his bereaved widow. A memorial trust was set up within days of the accident. Countless game developers, journalists and fans posted links on Twitter and Facebook, leading to literally thousands of supportive comments, messages and financial donations, prompting Wood to send an open letter to the gaming community to popular game blog Kotaku. “Brian always told me about how close-knit and wonderful the video game community was, but I had no idea until this tragedy just how special a group it really is,” she writes. “From all the articles and comments, to the emails and donations, I am simply stunned and so touched by the love, kindness, and generosity shown to me and my family.” At the time of his death, Brian Wood was working on Company of Heroes Online, a free-to-play version of Relic’s award-winning strategy game. It's currently in open beta-test. To help Erin, please visit the Brian Wood Memorial Trust . added by: Almibry
TBS’ newest recruit gives Eugene, Oregon, a variety hour. By Serena Markstrom Conan O’Brien performs at his “Legally Prohibited” tour in Eugene, Oregon, on Monday Photo: Michael Buckner/ Getty Images EUGENE, Oregon — Monday’s kickoff of Conan O’Brien’s Legally Prohibited From Being Funny on Television Tour was part rock, part late-night variety show as O’Brien demonstrated a fighting attitude that will come in handy as he leverages a television comeback on TBS next season . Conan O’Brien Kicks Off His ‘Legally Prohibited’ Tour With a Doctor Evil-like character doing most of NBC mocking, gaudy outfits (including an Eddie Murphy “Raw”-style purple leather suit), altered versions of well-worn bits, an inflatable “bat out of hell” and several guest appearances, a bearded O’Brien wowed the first group in his 32-city national tour. “You may have heard: I got a new job,” he told the 2,500 capacity crowd, joking he’d be the new assistant manager at Banana Republic. “I’ll be in the corduroy section.” The tour launched on the heels of shocking news that in November, O’Brien will return to television on cable channel TBS, not a major network. In the meantime, he’s contractually prohibited from appearing on TV, so the members of Team Coco have been supporting him at the box office, with most stops on this tour selling out within a few hours of going on sale in March. At Eugene’s Hull Center for the Performing Arts, there were a few people who’d dyed their hair orange for the night, but the rest of the fans looked like typical concertgoers. To open the show, comedian Reggie Watts set the tone with 40-minutes of his strange humor. He sang and beat-boxed several potty-mouthed songs covering such terrain as “big-ass purses,” the anatomical function of hydrochloric acid and objectification of women in rap videos. With his huge, wobbling Afro, idiosyncratic voices and accents, and looped sound effects, Watts got the crowd roaring with more laughter than any other guest, including O’Brien’s trusty foil Andy Richter. The first sight of O’Brien was a close-up of his pasty white skin and red facial hair on the projection screen. As the video panned out, we saw an “overweight” O’Brien splayed on the floor with a half-eaten piece of pizza on his belly and an empty bottle of Budweiser near his head. The bit introduced the running theme that O’Brien’s life is lonely and hollow when he is not on television. But then O’Brien took the stage, slim, trim and lanky as ever. After an extended standing ovation and began the monologue. He explained the eight stages of grief after losing a television show. The funniest was number four, anger, for which he showed photos of people such as Kim Kardashian, Snooki and illusionist Criss Angel who are on TV instead of him. O’Brien, Richter and “Tonight Show” writer Deon Cole all took stabs at Eugene, but the funniest came from Triumph the Insult Comic Dog. “Usually you have to go to a Dave Matthews Band concert to see this many white people,” the dog said in a video segment, referring to the predictable demographics of the college town. Triumph’s bit was Mad Libs-style pre-recorded video, overdubbing clumsy edits to insert town-specific jokes. “I know everything about your state,” he said. Popular University of Oregon football coach Chip Kelly became the “state animal.” Gay Portland Mayor Sam Adams was the “state flower.” The puppet got more laughs than Cole’s short stand-up act and Richter’s live, radio-style “commercials.” Indie rockers Spoon took the stage as musical guests, leaving their own fans waiting 40-minutes at a downtown venue three blocks south. O’Brien kept his NBC-bashing light and subtle, with occasional video segments featuring a bald O’Brien as “Generic Network Executive.” “This is the first time anyone has ever paid to see me,” O’Brien said. “They’ve paid to make me go away.” O’Brien’s newfound independence was on display with his beard and lack of heavy makeup (large under-eye bags and dark spots on his hands were visible on the large screen). And keeping with the idea that lawyers were watching and that it’s unclear who owns his long-running jokes, Masturbating Bear became the “Self-Pleasuring Panda,” and the Walker Texas Ranger Lever was the “Chuck Norris Rural Policeman Handle.” The random Chuck Norris video clips were a hit. But the musical numbers in which O’Brien subbed topical humor into songs like Willie Nelson’s “On the Road Again” and Cake’s version of “I Will Survive” fell flat at many places, perhaps because the lyrical substitutions were too obvious. The full cast returned to the stage for an encore that featured strobe lights, backup dancers and a massive bat out of hell inflating above the band and in front of a big screen flickering with flames. As people filed out of the theater, the sinister network executive appeared one last time to spit hateful words. “Go home to your pathetic little houses,” he sneered, as some fans lingered, batting beach balls printed with cartoon images of O’Brien’s face.

If you’ve ever been to one of those awful gator parks in Florida, the ones off the highway, then you’ve seen this show before: A bunch of ancient scaly things laying about, moving only occasionally to viciously snap at something. It’s too bad there aren’t any alligators in Orange County, because if there were we could just set them loose and they’d devour these horrible women and we could move on with our lives.
