Young Buck Possibly Facing Jail Time

G-Unit rapper, Young Buck, is set to appear in court on Thursday (May 5) to answer for a couple of parole violations he has incurred over the past several weeks.  Buck's parole officer was forced to come before a judge last Friday (April 29), in order to bring the judge up to speed on a moving violation the rapper was stopped for on Monday, April 25.  The terms of his release require that Buck immediately inform his P.O. whenever arrested or questioned by law enforcement; an action that his officer reports did not take place.  The Cashville Records head is expected to defend why the infractions should not consequently result in prison time.

The 35-year-old, born David Darnell Brown, may face a challenge, as the traffic fumble was his second offense in as many months.  A March 18th filing by the prosecution alleged that he was recorded making death threats via text message exchange with the fiance of his child's mother.  According to the report, Buck was responding to a perceived insult by the fiance, who supposedly challenged his integrity as a father for failing to make child support payments.  The messages have Buck threatening that he will 'slap the s*** out of' him, and demanding he give up his location so that he could go and 'f*** [him] up.'  Buck suspected at the time that the messages on the fiance's end might have been made in the presence or with the knowledge of a lawyer, telling his P.O. that at one point the man told him it was being read by the District Attorney.

A decision against the rapper on Thursday could land him back behind bars for as many as 14 months.

Young Buck has been on probation since October of 2013, when he was released after serving 18 months on gun charges stemming from a 2010 raid. He got himself into trouble when in 2014 he was first confronted with the repercussion of violating parole, as he was found to have lied to his P.O. about using fake urine during a drug test.  He would subsequently reach a plea deal ordering him to give 100 hours of community service, spend 30 days at a treatment center followed by a 90 day stint at a correction center, then comply with the 18 months of probation he has recently struggled to complete.

One Dead In Florida Courthouse Shooting

Deputies contained the gunman in an area near the courthouse at 10:37 a.m. A negotiator from the Palm Bay police was speaking with the man. Chopper 2 video showed the man pacing near the courthouse, and at least eight law enforcement officials took cover behind vehicles with their guns pointed at him. Two snipers trained guns on the suspect from the roof.

SWAT members took cover behind an armored truck and moved toward the man. He took off on foot and was killed in gunfire. It is not clear who fired the fatal shot. Ivey did not identify the man but said he had made previous threats at the courthouse. The threats didn’t rise to the level of an arrest, Ivey said.

Everyone in the courthouse was moved to the back of the building during the standoff. After the shooting, the courthouse was evacuated and closed for the day. Viera High School and Viera Charter School were also placed on lockdown, and nearby residents were told to avoid the area. Jury selection for Brandon Bradley’s high-profile murder case is in its fifth day inside the courthouse. Bradley is accused of killing Deputy Barbara Pill on March 6, 2012.

Federal Prisons Placed on Lockdown

Two Morons Arrested

A pair of teens from Roseville, Michigan were arrested on Friday [October 7], for dressing up as clowns and scaring two 14-year-old girls the day prior. Jaime Salinis, 18, and Elandra Sledge, 18, are behind bars this weekend after they jumped out of a car and shocked the girls as they walked down the 18000 block of Minnesota, near 13th Mile and Gratiot at around 9 p.m. Thursday night. According to reports, Salinis and Sledge, whom a spokesperson for the police department called "morons" and "idiots," allegedly chased their accusers while screaming.

Authorities in the metro Detroit area have promised to take extensive action against citizens who dress as clowns to carry out acts of intimidation. “These incidents create unnecessary hysteria, within our community, and threats and will not be tolerated,” Police Chief Ronald Haddad said in a statement. “The Dearborn Police Department will pursue charges against any individual that deliberately commits an act that is designed to create fear or panic among our citizens.” The penalty for Salinis and Sledge was indeed exceptional, with 39th District Court Judge Catherine Steenland charging them with disorderly conduct, ordering them to be detained at Macomb County Jail and setting their bonds at $10,000 cash without a 10% option. A standard misdemeanor disorderly conduct charge is punishable by up to 90 days in jail or a $500 fine.  Their court date is set for October 20.

Law enforcement officers from around the nation have begun cracking down on clown-scare hoaxes, as several instances of violence have been reported to come from the encounters. Three clown related arrests were made in the Dearborn, MI area over the past week, with several other clown scare reports remaining under investigation.

Dave Chappelle Talks Police Brutality

A city council meeting in Yellow Springs, Ohio had the town's most famous resident show up to speak on the matter of policing recently, when Dave Chappelle appeared to share his unique experience of having grown up there and seen the change in the culture of local law enforcement.

Citizens of the small liberal Dayton suburb had been convening to review a scandal that has rocked the town, leading to the resignation of Police Chief David Hale, to "heal the rift" caused after officers violently broke up the annual New Years Ball Drop, in the early hours of January 1. The department drew heat, with protesters livid over the use of their cruisers to disperse the crowd and the subsequent tasering of two black men.

Chappelle spoke of being present at the event, but having left early because the vibe wasn't right. After imparting his gratitude to officers who have been nothing but courteous to him since his return to settle down in the place he was reared in, Chappelle laid into the force, reminding residents on hand that there was a time when it felt as though each officer had a personal connection with the families in the community; a sense he no longer gets. "Now, we're being policed by what feels like an alien force," he said, calling the New Year's Eve incident a "huge gaffe."

Chappelle then turned to politics, encouraging the council to consider the position Yellow Springs is in to shine as an example of progressive policing in the current political atmosphere. "I would beseech the council to look deeply and to look hard, because this is a golden opportunity. Literally, it could kill the game. In this Trump era, it gives us an opportunity to show everybody that local politics reigns supreme," he said. "We can make our corner of the world outstanding. So I'm just begging you to find a candidate that matches the culture of this town, which is renowned for being incredibly unique."

After the resignation of Commissioner Hale, one of the officers involved in the New Year's Eve incident, Allison Saurber, also resigned. The second officer said to have taken part in the tasing, R.J. Hawley, was reportedly injured at the function and has been on administrative leave since.

Nicki Minaj Robbed

Earlier this week, it was reported that Nikki Minaj's Los Angeles home was broken into and robbed. Aside from stealing over $200,000 worth of jewelry and other valuables, there was considerable damage to the 11,500 square foot mansion.

Law enforcement reported that the house was trashed on the inside with picture frames broken and several items of furniture destroyed, leaving suspicion that the crime was personal. There were several signs of forced entry around the house.

Nikki's team reported the burglary, the superstar rapper was out of town. No suspects have been named at this time.

Man Screams In Court Over Mistreatment

A man linked to the murder and dismembering of a woman nine years his junior in 2005 was formally charged with the heinous crime on Wednesday, February 22. But authorities had a difficult time handling him throughout much of the afternoon, as he is reported having resisted from the moment he was pulled into the courtroom; so much so that they were unable to fingerprint him.

In a video that leaked from Kwauhuru Govan's court proceeding, he insists that he wants to stand, as those in the pews behind him had been standing, but his request is denied by the judge and a crowd of court officers put their weight on him to ensure that he successfully obeyed the Judge's demand that he remain seated.

"I would like to stand. I would like to stand in court. I have a right to stand in court," Govan repeatedly insisted, as over a half dozen law enforcement officials wrestled to keep him still. "I want to stand up so the American people can see my clothes. Can see how they've been treating me."

According to court reports, Govan, 38, came into the courtroom hollering that he had been framed. But forensics says that his DNA was found on Rashawn Brazell's belongings. Last year Govan was put away when his DNA turned up on another young woman, 17-year-old Sharabia Thomas only one year earlier. Brazell reportedly lived across the street from Govan. Investigators say they are now looking into exploring the possibility that they may have nailed a serial killer, whose involvement in other murders has yet been unearthed.

Naked Women Found In Chris Brown Bed

Now how crazy is this? What would you do if you came home and a woman was naked in your bed? On the evening of May 6, upon arrival at his Agoura Hills, CA home, Chris Brown discovered a butt-naked woman in his bed, reports TMZ. Since Breezy didn’t know the uninvited stranger, he called the police who arrived and escorted her away from the premises.

Law enforcement sources told the gossip site that last night when Brown arrived at his home alongside his security team they made a startling discovery. Items of the woman’s clothing were strewn throughout the foyer and “I LOVE YOU” was spray painted on the kitchen counter. It was later determined that she also spray painted “MRS. BROWN” on both his silver Rolls-Royce and his black Range Rover.

Upon the investigation by Chris’ security team, they found the stripped-down stalker in his bed. Brown then called the cops who arrived, cuffed the female, and took her to the station where she was hit with felony burglary and felony vandalism charges.

Mike Brown Memorial Burned

Rumors are that a memorial honoring Michael Brown that lay just feet from where the unarmed teen was shot and killed in Ferguson, Missouri last month was burned early on Tuesday morning, according to fire officials.

The Ferguson Fire Department received a call around 6:45 a.m. about a fire on Canfield Drive. When fire fighters arrived they found the burning memorial which residents had erected in Brown’s honor. Firefighters extinguished the flames. For more than a month people had lit candles, laid cards and balloons and tied balloons to the memorial.

The memorial was one of two at the scene of the Aug. 9 shooting, this one erected around a telephone pole, the other in the center of Canfield Drive where Brown fell after being shot about a half-dozen times by Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson after a brief struggle between the two. Police say Wilson shot Brown after the teen reached for the officer’s gun. Witnesses say Wilson shot at Brown as he tried to run away and fired the fatal gunshots as Brown turned with his hands up in surrender.

In the weeks after Brown was killed, protesters calling for justice in the teen’s death would begin or end marches at the very location he took his last breaths. Much of the early angst over Brown’s killing was a result of how law enforcement officials treated his body after the shooting. They left his remains uncovered in the middle of the street for more than four hours, baking in the afternoon sun for all to see.

The Michael Brown Case

Although there were five charges officer Darren Wilson was facing for the murder of Michael Brown, no indictment charges were filed against him. A Missouri grand jury has decided not to indict Ferguson police Officer Darren Wilson in the August 9 shooting death of Michael Brown, St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Robert McCulloch said.

Brown’s father is “devastated” that Wilson will not face charges. After an “exhaustive review,” the jurors deliberated for two days. The grand jurors are “the only ones who have heard all the evidence. While protesters chanted late Monday for an indictment in the shooting death of Michael Brown, officials called for calm as the world awaits word of the grand jury’s decision.

Protesters were gathering outside the police department in Ferguson. Darren Wilson, a white police officer with the department, shot and killed Brown, a black teenager, on August 9 2014. The grand jury’s decision on whether to indict Wilson will be announced at about 8 p.m. (9 p.m. ET).

Members of the National Guard will be in the area to provide security at firehouses, police stations and utility substation. Brown’s death ignited a national debate on race and law enforcement. Nowhere was the tension more evident than in the predominantly black town of Ferguson, which has a mostly white police department and town government.

Supporters of Brown’s family back witness accounts that Wilson fired while Brown, 18, had his hands up in surrender. Wilson’s supporters say that Brown was the aggressor and had tried to take Wilson’s gun while he was in his vehicle and that the officer fired in self-defense.

French Montana Robbed

According to TMZ, at least two armed robbers broke into the rapper’s Calabasas crib, which is located in a guard gated community, early Tuesday morning (July 31). Law enforcement officials were summoned to French’s mansion around 9 a.m., several hours after the crime occurred. French and others were reportedly home at the time. It’s unclear if anyone was injured, but no one was hospitalized.

It’s unknown what, if anything, the thieves took. Cops are still investigating and don’t have any suspects yet. French purchased the 7,229 square-foot compound from Selena Gomez, who sold it for $3.3 million in 2016 after the house became a frequent target of stalkers.

NBA Youngboy Arrested

Mexican Police Arrested

The four men arrested by the U.S. Border Patrol after a man with a gunshot was found last week in Hudspeth County turned out to be Mexican law enforcement officers who inadvertently crossed the border. The Israeli-made drone was quickly returned to Mexico with U.S. officials citing trust between both nations for helping solve the situation.

On the evening of June 5, Border Patrol agents found a man with a gunshot wound to a leg near farms about two miles east of Hudspeth County line, Border Patrol spokesman Agent Ramiro Cordero said Friday. Four other men were arrested after crossing the border.

Cordero said that the four men were Chihuahua state police officers who were armed and had mistakenly crossed the border searching for the wounded man. The international boundary is at the middle of the Rio Grande, which was dry at that location.

In 2009, six Mexican federal police officers were detained by U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers in El Paso after they walked into U.S. territory while looking for a suspect vehicle on the Bridge of the Americas, according to El Paso Times archives. The uniformed officers were detained for less than four hours before they and their weapons were returned to Mexico. The border is set at the middle of the international bridge.

The Orbiter Mini Unmanned Aerial Vehicle did not have permission to be in U.S. airspace, according to El Paso Times archives. Mexican officials refused to talk about the drone’s mission but said that it was on a surveillance flight. The drone developed mechanical problems and Mexican officials immediately notified the U.S. that the drone could fall on the U.S. side of the border.
