Winter In America

I thought he would win, until I didn’t anymore. Christmas, 2015. I was going to the grocery store in Redding, California, where my family was living at the time. The town is largely suburban, largely Republican, largely white, and has two Walmarts. It is not the romanticized bombed-out Appalachian horror movie people like to imagine… Read more »

Woman Leads Cops On Police Chase In Scooby Doo Van A California woman led law enforcement officers on a pursuit in a van painted to look like the ‘Mystery Machine’ from the Scooby Doo cartoon according to KRCRTV reports: On Sunday at 12:50 p.m., a probation officer with Shasta County Probation contacted Redding Police Department regarding Sharon Kay Turman, 51, wanted for a probation violation. According to police, Turman was found operating the 1994 Chrysler minivan painted teal and green in the area of California Street and Shasta Street. When officers tried to conduct a traffic stop, Turman took off in the van, said police. A pursuit began as Turman sped through South Market Street, said police. The chase came to a stop near Buenaventura and Highway 273, but Turman continued to speed southbound on Highway 273, said police. According to police, Turman drove through an intersection against a red light hitting four other vehicles. The California Highway Patrol helicopter later located the van at Hill Drive just north of Anderson. Officers said Turman then continued the chase through the city of Anderson and onto Interstate 5 at speeds over 100 mph. Turman’s current whereabouts are unknown.

Race Matters: White California Man Admits He Lied When He Blamed Black Man After Shooting Himself

People truly ain’t isht ! According to NY Daily News reports : A white California man who told cops he’d been shot by a black man has confessed he made the entire story up and had actually fired the gun at himself. Officers found Brent Thomas Posada suffering from gunshot wounds at his Redding home at 8:18 p.m. on Feb. 1. The 34-year-old claimed a black man had approached him and pointed a gun at his head. Posada alleged that, when he pushed the suspect’s arm to the side, the gun went off. A bullet struck him in the stomach, he added. But when police searched the area, they found no evidence to back up his claims, reports Redding.com. Investigators analyzed Posada’s clothes and found evidence that seemed to contradict his original statement. Posada was recalled for questioning and, on Monday, reportedly admitted to intentionally shooting himself with a high-powered air rifle. It’s not clear why he deliberately wanted to injure himself. Posada was not arrested for filing a false police report. But Shasta County District Attorney’s Office will now review his case, reports KRCRTV. Kudos to the police for not trusting this fool. It seems like too many other times in history cops buy anything a white person say as long as a black person is supposedly to blame. SMH.

Jesus Take The Wheel: Female Enforcer Strangles Aspiring Model And Actress To Death On Her Boss’ Instructions Over A Business Deal Gone Wrong

Crazy. This lady killed an aspiring model and was paid to do so! Female Enforcer Strangles Woman to Death According to Mail Online It is a murder mystery straight out of Hollywood – a young actress and model strangled to death allegedly by the female enforcer of a shady businessman who has fled the country. This Monday, jury selection will begin in the long awaited murder trial of Kelly Soo Park, 47, who prosecutors in Southern California believe killed Juliana Redding, 21, with her bare hands in March 2008. Prosecutors say that Park worked as ‘muscle’ – described as a James Bond-style figure for Dr. Munir Uwaydah, who sent her to ‘intimidate and threaten’ the aspiring actress at her Santa Monica apartment. Redding, originally from Tucson, Arizona, appeared in low-budget films and also modeled for Maxim magazine and was found beaten to death in her home on March 17th, according to Los Angeles County District Attorney Office records. Building their case, prosecutors claim that Uwaydah dated Redding and was also in the midst of planning a pharmaceutical business with her father, Greg Redding. However, the plans for this fell apart five days before Juliana’s death according to the Los Angeles Times because Redding doubted his business partners legitimacy. While Uwaydah has since left the United States following Redding’s death, he has not been charged in the murder. Prosecutors allege though, that Park and her boyfriend worked as ‘debt collectors’ for the spinal surgeon and California businessman on at least two occasions The doctor referred to Park as ‘James Bond,’ according to court documents – Park currently remains free on $3.5 million bail. According to documents seen by the Los Angeles Times, Park was officially employed as Uwaydah’s real estate broker, but was paid hundreds of thousands of extra dollars to collect debts for him. Court documents show prosecutors allege Park received a $250,000 payment from Uwaydah just weeks before Redding was killed Investigators in the case have said that Park has been linked to the crime by DNA evidence found on Redding’s neck, however, defense attorney’s argue that the real killer is Redding’s boyfriend at the time, John Gilmore. Gilmore was cleared as a suspect in the immediate aftermath of the murder, insisting that he had several people who could offer him an alibi according to CBS News. ‘They’re trying to point the finger at Gilmore, saying he had, at one time, allegedly assaulted his ex-girlfriend,’ ABC News legal analyst Dana Cole said. The defense alleges that Gilmore’s assault of his fianceé Melissa Ayala casts doubt on the guilt of Park. They allege that Ayala told a defense attorney that Gilmore choked her saying, ‘that he was going to make her feel what Juliana felt. More and more people show their disregard for human life.

Here is the original post:

Phaedra Parks, of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” fame, is penning her first book and pitching three new reality shows. Phaedra describes the book as “a modern day twist on etiquette.” She told RadarOnline, “It’s about being a southern belle and all the accoutrements that go with it. It’s a modern day twist on etiquette and being a lady. And it’s alright for women to embrace their ladylike side. It’s high time that women start enjoying being ladies again. People have moved away from that.” “I want to give my tips. So many people over the years have asked me about how to have it all without losing yourself.” Phaedra is also pitching three new “empowering” reality TV shows. “I’m more into the uplifting programs. The first show is a docudrama and will take a group of women and empower them. The second show is more of a documentary that deals with serious issues of dating. And the third show is more fun and lighthearted focusing on alternative lifestyles.” “I’m all about girl-power.” NeNe, Kim & Phaedra Still Fighting At “Real Housewives” Reunion [VIDEO] Kandi Answers How Celebrities Cope With Bullying [VIDEO]

30 Deep Gang Member Sentenced To Life Plus 70 Years

Follow this link:

30 Deep gang member Jonathan Redding has been sentenced to life plus 70 years for three robberies and a murder that ignited a firestorm of public anger over violent crime in Atlanta, the AJC reports. Redding was convicted of the murder of popular Grant Park bartender John Henderson, whose father urged Superior Court Judge Kimberly Esmond Adams to make an example out of Redding and the 30 Deep gang. On the other side, Jonathan Redding’s mother, Dorothy Redding, cried and pleaded with the judge to show leniency, contending her son had been lured into the gang life. It only took the Fulton County jury about two hours to convict Redding. Under a life sentence, Redding is not eligible for parole for 30 years. Redding has refused to cooperate with police. Don Henderson praised authorities for attacking the gang problem in Atlanta. He said his family would do its part by lobbying state authorities to ensure Redding never gets paroled.
