The Ruffalo Shooting And The Beverly Hills Police Investigation

Beverly Hills, CA —It was an awful and tragic event that brought Beverly Hills police to the home of actor Mark Ruffalo’s brother Scott Ruffalo . He suffered a gunshot wound to his head and was unconscious. Ruffalo later died. Police became aware that others were present and put out a dragnet to locate and detain them. There is a big rub here. Witnesses or offenders are not required to talk to police. Witness can be compelled by court order to testify unless they assert their rights against self-incrimination. The primary suspect was 26 year-old Shaha Mishaal Adham . This woman did not hang around the scene nor was she required to do so. A 911 call was made and help was on the way. The apparent evidence indicated that Ruffalo was playing Russian Roulette and that the wound was self-inflicted. Generally this can be proven by tests for gunshot residue. Positioning evidence of the gun to skin can and generally will show either contact or close to contact gun muzzle distances. Suspect Ad...

Arizona Reporter’s Killing To Be A Major Motion Picture

Phoenix, AZ —It was a warm June day in 1976. It was nearing lunch time when in the Central Phoenix, Clarendon Hotel parking lot there was a loud explosion. Emergency responders found a severely injured man in a mangled small white Datun agonizing in pain. A remote controlled bomb that had been attached under the driver’s seat by magnets did the job it was designed to do. The man was transported to the nearby Str. Joseph’s Hospital where he suffered with the loss of both legs for no less than ten days before his injuries took his life. Soon the explosion was heard in newsrooms throughout the world. The victim, reporter, Don Bolles would become a legend. What followed was some of the worst police work in Arizona history. Reporters from throughout the country all descended on Phoenix and virtually took over the police investigation. The problem was they weren’t cops. They knew a lot about conducting the paper chase of public records but they did not understand police work or the cr...

News Media Shows Ignorance Of The Law Over Blagojevich Arrest.

Los Angeles, CA —I’m watching news coverage and reading major news media stories about Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich . A great number of reporters are talking about the "indictment" of the governor on corruption charges. There is just one giant problem and that’s Governor Blagojevich has not been indicted. That is expected to happen soon but right now he was arrested on a criminal complaint with an attached sworn affidavit. I guess the reporters and producers just don’t understand the process and don’t research the crap they write. Do a Google search on Blagojevich and indictment and you will see the offenders for yourself. The US Attorney’s office made a solid press release and a copy of the criminal complaint available to everyone and anyone who wanted it. I posted the material on this blog and the word indictment or Grand Jury can’t be found anywhere. Prosecutors now have limited time to get a Grand Jury to return an indictment. When it comes there will be mor...

Chicago’s Democratic Politicians are extortionist and Thugs

Chicago,IL —After patronage was somewhat abolished by a 1969 court decision called the Shakman Decree and several years of follow-up litigation the Democrats changed their direction. Since the army of patronage workers was decimated by Shakman the politicians turned to government contractors to fund the campaigns with cold hard cash. This went so far out-of-control that government in Illinois was ruled by extortion and bribery. It’s impossible for anyone to become an Illinois Senator or a presidential candidate without out being inside of the thick of the criminal cabal. There is no way for President-Elect Barack Obama to escape the taint of business as usual in Illinois corruption. Of course the investigation could be shut down and derailed by additional criminal conspiracies at the highest levels. The arrest of Governor Rod Blagojevich is just the tip of a giant iceberg. I would expect to see the rats in Cook County biting each other as they get into survival mode to avoid arrest...

IL Gov. Rod R. Blagojevich, Aid Arrested For Corruption!

I can't wait to see the harvest of damaging documents and other evidence captured as a result of the search warrants they are serving today all over Chicago... From the press release issued by The U. S. Attorney’s Office: " CHICAGO – Illinois Gov. Rod R. Blagojevich and his Chief of Staff, John Harris , were arrested today by FBI agents on federal corruption charges alleging that they and others are engaging in ongoing criminal activity: conspiring to obtain personal financial benefits for Blagojevich by leveraging his sole authority to appoint a United States Senator; threatening to withhold substantial state assistance to the Tribune Company in connection with the sale of Wrigley Field to induce the firing of Chicago Tribune editorial board members sharply critical of Blagojevich; and to obtain campaign contributions in exchange for official actions – both historically and now in a push before a new state ethics law takes effect January 1, 2009. Blagojevich, 51, and Harris, ...

Another Non-violent Gun Owner Goes To Prison

Phoenix, AZ —62, year-old Prescott resident, Gerald James Brown is going to prison for two years. Why you ask? He had a simple semi-automatic shotgun and a silencer. Since he evaded the bogus $200.00 tax on each item taxpayers will house, feed him and take care of his medical needs in a federal prison. His "crime" is no crime. He possessed arms. They tried to tax another right but our courts said taxing rights was unconstitutional. Remember Poll Taxes ? How is this different? What threat is this old fellow? Who did he kill, injure or threaten? Unconstitutional gun laws have just claimed another American.

Crimefile Was Invited To A Fabulous Holliday Party

Westwood, Los Angeles, CA— I’m a member of an exclusive club. Membership is earned by honorable service in the Armed Forces of The United States . Most of the dopes in our Congress view America’s military veterans as cramping their lifestyle. That as they’ve drastically cut benefits to the very people they count on to allow them to exist and hold office in a free country. In LA as in other communities there are fine people that appreciate the contribution American made to military service. Whether they were drafted like I was or they who have enlisted the risk of life, limb and the loss of personal freedom that military service requires is a sacrifice. To hold this event several hundred contributors and volunteers made a sacrifice of their own. These folks these are some finest, real Americans that make this country strong and free. No man would fight for his country without the love and support of neighbors, friends and family. Every veteran including myself received love, gifts, a ta...

Nevada Reverses Kidnapping Case And It Will Help O.J. Simpson

Las Vegas, NV —This Sunday morning O.J. Simpson faces what may be the rest of his life in a Nevada prison. Odds are that without divine intervention the 61 year-old may not live long enough to make parole. He must serve at least nine years and parole is far from guaranteed after serving that minimum portion of the 9 to 33 year sentence. There is however a somewhat recent case that reversed a kidnapping conviction on a much more egregious case. This suggests that Simpson was over-charged and over-convicted for what should have been a simple armed robbery. An appeal citing this November 2006 case, may well get Simpson a second chance at a much lighter sentence. Appeals move very slowly and Simpson will be sitting in prison for as long as a couple of years before the Nevada Supreme Court hears and decides his case. In case you were wondering Nevada has no Court of Appeals so his case goes directly to the Nevada Supreme Court. Simpson’s co-defendant, Stewart will get the same benefi...

Chicago Parking Meter Outrage Fix Is Simple

Chicago, IL —Chicago’s Mayor and Aldermen approved a plan to make Chicagoans even more miserable than they are as some of the most overtaxed citizens in the nation. They are going to let private vendors handle the meters and soon to be increased fees. This hurts business, jobs and citizens alike. Chicago's rank and file cops hate this meter extortion too. What’s the solution you ask? That’s just too simple, crazy glue, washers, and courage. Hammers and pipe cutter work wonders too. If the meters are destroyed they can’t be used to extort money from anyone. If the cost of meter repair exceeds the revenue they are gone. That’s pure and simple. The only question I ask Americans is whether or not the participants in the Boston Tea Party would tolerate parking meter extortion by any government? Don't snitch on meter vandals! If you’re picked to sit on a jury for someone accused of parking meter vandalism simply acquit that defendant. Shake his or her hand after the trial and ...

BATFE Gun Trace Data Is Worthless As An Indicator Of Criminal Use Of Firearms.

To suggest that all guns traced by BATFE were used in a crime is a flat ignorant statement at best or an outright lie . Gun control groups are always calling traced guns “guns used in crimes” when they are not. Gun control groups whine that most all traced guns come from the gun friendly Southern states. That’s true of all firearms lawfully moved in America. Distributors and wholesalers simply don’t want to set up shop where they may be forced out of business through over-restrictive regulation. The BATFE has the ability to trace firearms manufactured or sold through dealers after 1968. The reasons for gun traces are as simple as trying to identify the owner of a gun that is believed to be lost or stolen. Also included in trace searches are guns turned in to police by people disposing of the possessions of their dead relatives. Most often, entire inventories of gun dealers become the subject of an investigative fishing expedition on a spot check basis. The vast majority of gun...

Is Your State Broke And Begging For A Bailout?

Sacramento, CA— Our favorite Terminator, turned Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger has declared a fiscal emergency saying California can’t pay its bills after February. He says they will pay vendors with an IOU. That’s not surprising on a state run by Left Wing people that look to enslave their citizens to pay for so much crap nobody wants or needs. Now they look to people in more frugal states to pay for the mess they made. I have a simple solution to help states like California and Illinois through their difficult times. My plan will reduce lots emissions, and also help save the planet. I propose this as a long term solution with no serious side-effects. If this is an emergency like Governor Schwarzenegger any solution should be on the table. Front vehicle license plates are of limited value, create pollution during manufacture and most importantly burns money. Many states like Arizona do fine without them. Legislatures used to meet only once in two years. Now they furiously ma...

Let Health Insurance or Medicare Pay For Your Next Pistol

Constitution Arms' offering may sound too good to be true and in fact may be too good to be true. They don’t even have a real photograph of a finished product yet. They claim to have an unusual pistol, made for people with less than full dexterity with their hands. Get a prescription for the thing and let someone else pay for your fun. Would a physician dare write such a prescription for fear of litigation from Hell should there be an accident or crime? Somehow I don’t think so. I don’t think they will fill this prescription at your neighborhood Walgreens. In any event here is the poop on this single shot 9MM curiosity.

Disabling Traffic Enforcement Cameras Can Happen!

Dallas, TX—A clever lawyer has shut down camera traffic enforcement in Texas. This valid legal angle can also be used against the companies that provide this service to governments in California, Illinois and Arizona. The companies are unlawfully operating without required private investigation licenses in these states where they are required, The companies gather evidence to use in legal proceedings for compensation. That precisely why I’m required to have such a license for the work I do in those states. Operating without a license is a criminal offense! They can be forced under law to refund all monies collected unlawfully. I hope to see lawyers take up this and remove this tool that extorts money from citizens. Here is a news report from by my old friend Carol Cavazos at CBS 11 News in Dallas.

Travis Munroe Townsend Is A Patriot, Not A Criminal!

Glendale, AZ —Arizonans are taxed to death. Many can barely afford to keep a roof over their heads, feed their families and must go without health insurance. Despite this Arizona’s never ending supply of government bureaucrats have plush officers, take home vehicles and too many perks to mention. Arizona’s government grows faster than cancer. It’s become a monster that feeds on the backs of everyone and there is no control in sight. Arizona has installed new speed cameras on Arizona highways that spit out well over 40,000 tickets in just two months of operation. Does Arizona have a huge accident problem that led to this draconian enforcement? No, but they have a revenue crisis because of over-spending and runaway government growth. In the spirit that made this country, a Glendale man is accused of taking a pickaxe to a photo enforcement camera. Travis Munroe Townsend, 26 , was charged with criminal damage, interference with a traffic-control device and criminal trespass. The felo...

India Was Ripe For The Mumbai Attack, No Firearm Training Was Provided!

Mumbai, India —Police have some impressive rifles like the FN FAL, in .308. There are some but but individual officers are generally unarmed sharing weapons with others at best. Now The Indian Times broke a major scandal, that officers involved in the Mumbai attack defense had not fired their weapons in 10 years! It’s now obvious why a handful terrorists were able commit so much carnage and property destruction. You must read this to believe it! Cops just had 577 rifles, hadn't fired in 10 yrs 2 Dec 2008, 1203 hrs IST, Prafulla Marpakwar, TNN MUMBAI: The state constabulary was grossly unprepared to deal with the worst-ever terror attacks on the metropolis because of an acute shortage of weapons and ammunition. Official records show that for a force of well over 1.8 lakh, the home department procured a meagre 2,221 weapons — 577 for Mumbai, and 1,644 for the rest of Maharashtra. ‘‘Under the centrally sponsored modernisation programme, we purchased almost all types of weapons, but...

Crimefile’s Exposé Of TSA Pilots Booby-trap Holster Finally Got Results!

Washington, DC —It has been nearly I year ago when I exposed some “classified’ information on the dangerous conditions the TSA created with a bizarre holster requirement. The TSA mandated that pilots participating in the Federal Flight Deck Officers carry their loaded service pistols in a holster with a padlock across the trigger . The holster violated both safety rules and common sense. The locking holster turned the weapon into a deadly booby-trap causing the gun to be unintentionally fired. It was less than four months later when US Airways Captain James Langenhahn’s pistol discharged while he was stowing it away as his flight ended. I put together a video to show precisely how the accident happened and placed it on YouTube and other video sharing sites. The videos received a half million hits. CNN and other news outlets covered the story using my demonstration of the involved equipment. Langenhahn was removed from the FFDO program and fired. I think it’s clear that the TSA cre...
