Life Imitates Art For Actor Lane Garrison.

The star of the TV series Prison Break was sentenced to 40 months in the California State Prison. This was as a result of a plea agreement in connection to the drunken driving incident that took the life of 17 year-old Vahagn Setian who was a passenger in Garrison’s Land Rover when Garrison lost control striking a tree in Beverly Hills. Additionally two 15 year-old girls who were passengers in Garrison’s SUV survived.

Garrison had twice the legal limit of alcohol and cocaine in his blood. With good behavior Garrison will only serve slightly more than two years. Of course there are the civil penalties that are substantial that go along in these kinds of cases.

I fully expect this young man to face some real horror in prison. Young and goodlooking kids like Garrison are targets for extortion, beatings and the unwanted attention the Buga-Buga Boyz. There is a lot more to prison than simple loss of liberty.

When Garrison gets out there won’t be any Hollywood agents beating down his door signing him to those high paying acting gigs. Garrison will pay this debt off for the rest of his life.

What part of DUI ACCIDENT don't they understand?

At one time there was a need for the ACLU, the NAACP and MADD. But just like the ACLU and the NAACP, MADD has gone way to far. Now MADD too is also a political propagandist machine.

I am a card carrying member of DDAM (Drink Drivers Against Mothers.) The biggest violators of DUI's are law enforcement. I know, because I was one of them.

Those passenegrs had a choice to say "no dont drive." Or not to get in his car. It's one of MADDS public service announcements.

I don't feel sorry for him. The victims in this case were youngsters who were probably thrilled to hang out with a celebrity. Unfortunately, they let the starlight blind them from using common sense.

He'll probably have a hard time in prison. Just another example of how alcohol can make a criminal out of anyone...if you should choose to drive. Too bad this is for real.

When you get behind the wheel of a vehicle drunk and end up killing someone, it's NOT AN ACCIDENT. You might as well have taken a loaded .357 mag. and fired it down the street to see if it hit anything. It's called Vehicular Homicide. I know, I lost my police officer son, Killed in the Line of Duty when his Chicago Squad was struck broadside by a drunk driver. The aftermath that follows losing a child, father, brother, sister, all because someone thought they could drive drunk, can not be described in words. Losing his acting career and a short stint in jail because of his "Accident" falls on deaf ears with me, he got off easy.

A 40 Caliber Nightmare Is Caught On Tape.

So you’re confident that that .40 caliber S&W service round will keep you safe. Maybe you’ll have second thoughts after you see this video. One hot summer night in 1994 Tempe and Mesa Arizona police were involved in a pursuit with this suspect who ran into a stranger’s apartment to hide after being shot TWICE in the chest. He was shirtless and you can see the blood pumping out of those two wounds. What’s really frightening is just how agile this fellow is as he struts to the ambulance. If he was not handcuffed and had a knife or a gun, ask yourself if he could still hurt you, your partner or a hostage? If your jurisdiction demands that officers carry either the 9MM or the .40 Caliber S&W it’s time to show this video to your bosses and lobby to have the .45 ACP round authorized. The switch may well reduce the screaming by self-appointed community activists about how many rounds police had to use on a suspect. The really talented and courageous video journalist, Karen Ke...

America Will See Its Worst Race Riot Yet This Summer

Star Prosecution Witness, Rachel Jeantel Sanford, FL —Yes, the George Zimmerman trial here has thousands of African-Americans getting ready for some serious bloodletting. I don’t want to make idle and dire predictions but this nation has never been so divided and racially sensitive.  Our African-American President took sides on this case at the very beginning.  That ratified a George Zimmerman guilty verdict in the minds of millions. There’s just one little problem, and that is the murder case should have never been filed.  It was filed purely for political reasons despite the fact that it was a simple justifiable homicide.  Zimmerman was on the block watch lookout program and followed a suspicious Trayvon Martin after he used an improper entrance to a gated community.  Zimmerman was acting as the eyes and ears of the Sanford Police Department. Martin did not like being followed and knew that he could easily beat up the out-of-shape...

The origin of the feature film, COME FRIDAY…

CLick On the pictures to see full size versions. Long ago there was a young lady I had the hots for in a big way (Yes, I know that hots is not a word). She was pretty, incredibly bright, and had some real elegance about her. She had a love for children and basic kindness that you don’t often see in someone her age. I met her parents and could understand she came from a much more stable home than mine. I was raised by a single, welfare mom and suddenly found myself way out-classed. For whatever reasons things did not workout they way I had hoped. Sadly for me, we went on our separate ways. From time to time I’d run into this lady in various places where our job had taken us. Whenever this happened my heart would skip a beat or two. I left my hometown Chicago, and moved to Arizona where I founded my detective agency. As a private eye and soon a TV news producer too, my career took me to the highest profile criminal events in Arizona and throughout the country. There’s no question that ...
