Armed Thieves Caught On Camera Robbing Sprint Store You gotta be bold to rob a cell phone store, which more than likely is flooded with security cameras. Two Pennsylvania men clearly didn’t care about getting caught when they robbed a Sprint store in Philadelphia on Monday. Police say an employee was opening the store when one of the armed suspects came in and forced the employee to his knees. Then, the suspect reportedly took the employee to an office where he took $42 out of a safe, while the other litigant acted as the lookout. Surveillance footage shows the suspects meeting at a rear entrance before they fled the store. Fortunately, no shots were fired and the employee wasn’t hurt. Police are still searching for the suspects. SMH
Farrah Abraham is not the kind of person we enjoy defending. She's often ignorant; she's rude to the people in her life, and she exploits her daughter for financial gain. But there's this weird thing going on where Farrah is being bullied by transphobic morons on social media, and it's simply not okay. So yet again, we will defend Farrah … kind of. She has the right to post racy pics of herself without being maligned by bigots. But all the other stuff she does? Like, say, once again exploiting the memory of her dead baby daddy? Yeah, go ahead and roast her ass for that. Here's a brief rundown of what Farrah's been up to on the 'Gram this week: 1. Farrah Fully Clothed It’s an increasingly rare sight these days, as the reality-star-turned cam girl continues to show a lot of skin on the internet. 2. Topless Again Farrah has been posting even more racy pics than usual in recent weeks. And some fans have a theory as to why. 3. Cleavage For Cash? It’s widely believed that Farrah is in dire financial straits. The nude and semi-nude photos she’s been posting lately could be a way of calling attention to her failing business ventures. 4. Haters Gonna Hate It’s perfectly fine for Ms. Abraham to post revealing photos for whatever reason she chooses. Unfortunately, her most recent posts have attracted the wrong kind of attention. 5. The Good With the Bad All of Farrah’s recent pics have racked up six-figure likes — but she’s also been receiving a LOT of hate lately. 6. Extremely Harsh “Omg…..I literally thought she was a man! She needs to stop already with all that work on her face!” wrote one commenter. View Slideshow
As you've no doubt heard by now, Jenelle Evans has been fired from Teen Mom 2 . Getting unexpectedly axed from any job can be a very painful experience (although Jenelle really should have seen this move coming). But when it's the only job you've ever held as an adult, and it's the gig that made you rich and famous — well, that can be downright traumatic. Of course, most people would agree that Jenelle doesn't deserve any sympathy — and believe it or not, it seems the newly-unemployed mother of three holds that view herself. Take a look at what Jenelle had to say on the subject of her firing: 1. End of an Era After nearly a decade of infuriating viewers (and helping to attract huge ratings), Jenelle Evans is no longer a member of the Teen Mom 2 cast. 2. Hard Times Jenelle has never been the show’s most conscientious mom, so perhaps it should come as no surprise that there are now rumors that she’s broke and desperate to line up a new TV gig. 3. Belt-Tightening Time? “She is broke,” a source tells Radar Online, adding the reality star “depends on that quarterly check from MTV.” 4. Desperate For a Job? The source claims that Jenelle is currently in New York City and will do anything to line up another reality TV gig. 5. Straight to the Source But Jenelle says she’s doing just fine financially. She also claims rumors that she’s devastated by MTV’s decision have been greatly exaggerated. 6. No Surprise I was a little bit shocked but I saw it coming,” Evans told Us Weekly on Wednesday. “It’s shocking still but I respect their decision and have nothing but love for MTV.” View Slideshow
Source: Adene Sanchez/ Getty Images / Getty All Whites Matter… Hoschton, GA Mayor Rejects Black Candidate We’d love to say this is unbelievable but we’ve long known that Georgia outside of Atlanta isn’t the friendliest of places for black people. The mayor of Hoschton, GA is currently the subject of an Atlanta Journal Constitution investigation because she allegedly withheld a job candidate from consideration for a city administrator role because he was black. According to documents obtained by the AJC and interviews with city officials, Mayor Theresa Kenerly told a member of the City Council she pulled Keith Henry’s resume from a packet of four finalists “because he is black, and the city isn’t ready for this.” The mayor’s comments were reportedly whispered to a member of the council during a closed-door session on March 4th, and were overheard. Councilwoman Hope Weeks said Kenerly repeated her comments in the parking lot after the meeting, according to a document released by the city in response to an open records request from the AJC. “She proceeded to tell me that the candidate was real good, but he was black and we don’t have a big black population and she just didn’t think Hoschton was ready for that,” Weeks wrote in an account dated March 4. Weeks shared Kenerly’s comments with Councilwoman Susan Powers and the two decided to take the issue to city attorney Thomas Mitchell. “Both of us were just appalled, so we thought we had to do something to stop it,” Powers said. Weeks declined to be interviewed on the record, but issued a statement saying she was disappointed in the mayor’s comments about the candidate. “Mr. Henry was a very professional and qualified candidate who was a finalist for the position of city administrator before withdrawing to accept another position,” she said. “I am thankful for the opportunity to serve the citizens of Hoschton, but this has been one of the most challenging seasons of my life.” According to emails obtained by the AJC, Mitchell and the city’s five elected officials opted to continue the hiring process, allowing Kenerly to attend but not participate. Mitchell also cautioned officials to cease sending emails about the issue. “I do not think it in the best interests of the city (or the individual elected officials) to continue emailing in this manner,” he wrote in a March 14 email. In emails, Powers protested the mayor’s continued involvement in the search for a city administrator. “Since she corrupted this entire process by trying to shield the application of Mr. Henry from Council members and then making the comment to the effect that while he is qualified he should not be considered because he is black and the city is not ready for this, she should not be a part of this hiring process,” Powers wrote. “I am appalled that in 2019 an applicant would not be hired based solely on the color of their skin.” Henry withdrew his candidacy not long after the March 4 meeting and a phone interview with council members. He told the AJC he chose to withdraw because the city asked that he pay his travel, room, and board to travel for an in-person interview with the promise of reimbursement at a later date. Two of the other candidates for the position were local, while the third was willing to drive from the Georgia coast at his own expense. Henry told the AJC he didn’t detect any bias after being interviewed by Kenerly over the phone but as a black man applying for executive government positions in small Southern towns, he wasn’t surprised that it may have existed. “It comes with the territory,” he said. “If you live in America as a minority you can’t be naïve that it is the reality that you face.” Kenerly refused to initially answer questions about her reported comments, saying she could not publicly talk about matters that occurred in executive session even though the law does not forbid that. “I can’t say I said it or not said it,” she said. Kenerly later issued a statement disputing accounts from other city officials. Kenerly was not without defenders. Councilman Jim Cleveland confirmed many aspects of the story, including his account that Kenerly made a tearful apology in another executive session on March 12, where council members say she claimed to be “looking out” for Henry because the city does not have a lot of minority residents. “I was there for that,” Cleveland said. “She cried. She had tears in her eyes. It was in my opinion a very sincere apology.” Cleveland also seemed to express understanding of Kenerly’s motives saying: “I understood where she was coming from,” he said. “I understand Theresa saying that, simply because we’re not Atlanta. Things are different here than they are 50 miles down the road.” Cleveland described Hoschton as “a predominantly white community” not in accord with urban sensibilities about race.“I don’t know how they would take it if we selected a black administrator. She might have been right,” he said. Cleveland said he ranked Henry fourth out of the candidates in any case because he’d elected not to come for the in-person interview. Councilman Cleveland also shared his not so enlightened views on race: “I’m a Christian and my Christian beliefs are you don’t do interracial marriage. That’s the way I was brought up and that’s the way I believe,” he said. “I have black friends, I hired black people. But when it comes to all this stuff you see on TV, when you see blacks and whites together, it makes my blood boil because that’s just not the way a Christian is supposed to live.” YIKES… Sounds like Hoschton has a loooooong way to go when it comes to race. Located just outside Gwinnett County, in Jackson County, adjacent to the larger city of Braselton, Hoschton has a population of less than 2,000 people and only 201 of that number identify as non-white according to U.S. Census data. Hoschton’s city code reads: “There shall be no discrimination exercised because of race, national origin, color, religion, creed, age, sex … All personnel actions shall be based solely on individual merit and fitness.” Looks like the code is a long way from being followed.

Source: JakeOlimb / Getty Maleah Davis Goes Missing In Houston There is a missing little girl in the Houston, Texas area and the details are befuddling authorities. According to CNN, 4-year-old Maleah Davis’ stepdad, Darion Vence, told detectives that he, Maleah and his son were on their way to the airport Friday night to pick up Maleah’s mother, who was flying in from Massachusetts, Holbrook said. The stepfather then heard a “popping noise” like a popped tire and pulled over to check on it. That’s when he says a blue pickup truck pulled up behind the car and two Hispanic males got out. One of the men commented, “Maleah looks very nice, looks very sweet,” according to Vence’s account. The other man hit Vence in the head and he lost consciousness, he told the police. When Vence woke up, he said, he was in the back of the truck with Maleah and her brother. But three Hispanic males were suddenly in the truck, the stepfather said. He told police he was in and out of consciousness until about 6 p.m. Saturday, when he woke up on Highway 6 with the 1-year-old boy. Maleah was not there. Vence said he walked to a nearby hospital where he received treatment and reported her missing. Here, Houston Police showed photos of the alleged truck and the stepfather’s injuries. 2/2: Photo of assault victim, Mr. Darion Vence, who is Maleah's stepfather, stated he was unconscious for almost 24 hrs.
