We’re the Only Ones Uncommandeered Enough

Sonia Sotomayor saved from danger: Supreme Court Justice’s bodyguard shoots gun-wielding suspect who tried to steal his car outside her DC home [More]

Not that she wants you to be able to do that:

We’re the Only Ones Homicidal Enough

One wonders what thoughts passed through the fevered mind of Officer Lila Morris as she struck the seemingly lifeless Rosanne Boyland over the head with a branch, then struck her again, and then struck her a third time so hard that the branch snapped in half. [More]

Q&A

Mother demands answers after son is among victims in series of shootings in 24 hours in Lancaster [More]

I have questions, too, starting with “Mom, where was your husband in that clip?”

TPD renews gunshot detection system as NYC audit casts doubt on ShotSpotter accuracy [More]

Despite the fact that “in more than 80 percent of its activations, no one called 911.”

The Saga Continues

Here’s the latest in the Sheng Thao brouhaha.

Brass responded to the mayor’s office’s statement, calling it absolutely untrue and telling KRON4 he received no communication from Thao on Saturday about changing attorneys. [More]

So she’s out there protesting her innocence while her attorney says she’s a liar and wants nothing to do with her…?

Still, when are the feds gonna move and what’s taking them that long?
