My Kind of Town
Shootings increased near Chicago’s closed schools that sat empty, study finds [More]
So abandoned yet readily accessible buildings provide shelter for nefarious activities to go basically unchallenged? Who could have foreseen that?
It’s like providing the petri dish and the agar and then acting all surprised when something nasty grows in it.
Funny: As demand for schools went down, Stacy Davis’ compensation has gone up…
Don’t worry, though: The population is growing again!
International migration has helped boost Chicago’s population in the past few years. More immigrants moving into Chicago have helped offset the number of residents leaving Illinois.
Forget it, Jake. It’s Chi-Town.
We’re the Only Ones Brandishing Enough
Sheriff’s Deputy Fired for Allegedly Pointing Gun at Bar Patrons [More]
“Fired”…?
What about arrested?
OK, had to go to another source…

We’re the Only Ones Youth-Oriented Enough
An Ohio police chief was arrested in Pinellas County Thursday after being indicted on 70 counts of sexual misconduct stemming from an investigation involving a minor. [More]
It’s not like this isn’t a thing we’ve been talking about for some time. But in fairness, accusations 15 to 20 years later raise huge red flags for me.
For starters, without physical evidence and credible corroborating actual witnesses of abuse in progress, how do you prove beyond a reasonable doubt?

We’re the Only Ones All Flocked Up Enough
Local news reports from around the country repeatedly detail police abusing the Flock surveillance systemic order to stalk their partners or ex-partners. The contours of each story are much the same, with the police officer in question using their access to the system to repeatedly track a specific person over the course of weeks or months. [More]

We’re the Only Ones On Track Enough
The Texas Rangers have launched a criminal investigation after two Houston police officers were accused of secretly placing a GPS tracking device on a suspect’s vehicle without a warrant… According to records, both officers initially denied involvement. [More]
And it further means they’d have had to lie about how they obtained any evidence resulting from the placement in order for it to be admissible.
Thank goodness the problem isn’t more widespread…. right?

We’re the Only Ones Obstructing Enough
Minneapolis police chief resigns after interfering with an investigation… O’Hara … was under investigation on accusations that he was engaging in intimate relationships with city employees. [More]
Hell no, they won’t prosecute him. And this way there will be no questions about his pension.

Outrage as Indiana police chief is accused of stealing confiscated guns and RESELLING them onto the streets of his crime-ridden city [More]
I wonder if he put his “customers” through this:
Interesting— his dad is a Democrat candidate for sheriff who was wholly onboard with the Harris/Walz citizen disarmament agenda.

MacArthur Park is Melting in the Dark
A California man who claimed to work for a taxpayer-funded nonprofit that, according to court documents, distributed needles to drug users in Los Angeles’ notorious MacArthur Park was busted for allegedly attempting to sell fentanyl, authorities said. [More]
Hey, if Big Weasel can do it…
What do the long-known conditions of this tax-funded park say about Democrat government?

Above the Law
In short, prosecutors often decide who will go to prison for a long period of time, regardless of the will of the voters. It gets even a little stranger. Though many states initially stripped judges of any discretion under habitual offender laws, the courts pushed back. For example, a case in California (People v. Romero) ended up with the California Supreme Court declaring that trial courts have discretion to dismiss or strike prior strike allegations in Three Strikes cases, either on the court’s own motion or on motion of the prosecutor (even over the prosecutor’s objection). Stated more bluntly, trial judges can creatively thumb their noses at three-strike law requirements. [More]
There’s only one law that should matter with violent habitual offenders.

Mexican senator accuses Sheinbaum of shielding ‘narco-politicians’ after US cartel indictment – 10 current, former Mexican officials were indicted for allegedly partnering with the Sinaloa cartel [More]
Corruption and/or cowed acquiescence at the highest levels surprises who…?

No Honor Among Thieves
Minnesota nonprofit accused of siphoning $6.5M to fund Vegas trips, luxury cars, private liquor store… Trahern Pollard, founder and now-former director of the nonprofit We Push For Peace, was supposed to be leading his organization in providing “conflict de-escalation’’ work… [More]
S0, he basically just applied the money to a different scam than the approved one…?

We’re the Only Ones Courteous Enough
[W]hen Bradley was asked why he took the laptop, he said he was doing Holland a “favor.” “I kept it for his courtesy, like I said with his phone, key and wallet,” Bradley told investigators. “It’s my mistake. I forgot to give him his stuff back and he tracked it.” [More]
And he only got a one-day suspension…? I think that’s what they call “professional courtesy.”
It’s instructive for what they call “top cops,” isn’t it?
And remember: Back the Blue!
