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!

Excellence: Steven Reed Makes History As Montgomery, Alabama’s First Black Mayor In 200 Year History

A LOT of positivity… Steven Reed Becomes Montgomery’s First Black Mayor A brotha just made history in Alabama in a major way! Steven Reed, a Probate Judge, is Montgomery, Alabama’s first Black Mayor. Reed is replacing current Mayor Todd Strange and won with 67 percent of the votes. He will be sworn into office on Nov. 12. “If there was any doubt about what we can do when we come together, when we unify this city, let the record show tonight, above all, show what we can do when we come together in this city and we build around positivity, around opportunity and all the things that tie us together,” said Reed about his victory according to WSFA. When asked why he thought his campaign resonated with voters, Reed said it was the vision for a united Montgomery. “I think our vision for a better Montgomery. Our vision for a united Montgomery, and our vision to create better opportunities for everyone and I believe our concise vision that was very consistent from the day one is something a lot of people listened to,” Reed said. “I believe people really were attracted to that. They really were interested in some of our ideas and that energy and that enthusiasm that we felt so many days in the community is going to churches, going to community centers, going to neighborhood programs, we felt the energy there and we felt that energy in some unlikely corners for some. So we knew the message was resonating, and we knew that somewhere along the line, we knew that we were making a difference and that we were connecting, and I think that’s why we had the results that we had tonight.” Reed’s win marks the first time in Montgomery’s 200 years that a black Mayor has been elected. It’s especially significant because Montgomery was once called the “cradle of the Confederacy.” Montgomery, Alabama, once known as the cradle of the Confederacy and later the birthplace of the civil rights movement, has elected Steven Reed as its first African American mayor in the city's 200-year history. https://t.co/PjcVnDIRzj pic.twitter.com/898HkTThcj — ABC News (@ABC) October 9, 2019 Congrats to Mayor Reed!
