Phoenix, AZ --Confined to a motorized wheelchair in his Sunnyslope neighborhood, Terry Neely , 46 apparently sought some female companionship. Instead Neely found the most unimaginable nightmare of his life. According to the confession of a woman being held by police in an unrelated armed robbery told a tale beyond the vivid imagination of even Edgar Allen Poe . Angela Simpson , 33 told police how she drove a three inch nail into Neely’s skull, stabbed him 50 times, struck him with a tire iron, strangled him with a cable and dismembered him. Simpson disposed of Neely’s remains in an alley trash bin where she set them on fire.

Burbank, CA —My friends former Chicago police sergeant, Andy Murcia and his wife, the lovely star of stage, screen and television, Ann Jillian took me out to lunch today. Andy met Ann in the late 1970’s when he was working as a part-time house dick at the Ambassador East Hotel in Chicago. Ann was appearing in a show and stopped by the Buttery there afterwards. Sparks flew and Andy went on a wild ride with Ann ever since. They took me to the incredibly popular Porto’s Café and Bakery . This was my first experience at this place and proved to be a real treat. Thanks Ann and Andy for being dear friends!

Click on pictures to enlarge (Santa Barbara County Jail and today’s lunch) Santa Barbara, CA —Most of the time I can’t talk about where I’m working because of the sensitive nature of what I do. This time I had an adoption related assignment that took me to the Santa Barbara county Jail . I travel to cities I can only describe as armpits or worse. Sometimes I’m in some of the great cities of the world. Today it’s one of the better places. The sun went into hiding but other than that it was just fine. For lunch I stopped at the Warf and shot some pictures and video before and after a good meal. There is a lonely side of these trips in that since I work alone I have nobody to have lunch with. So today I will have my lunch with my blog visitors. Enjoy five minutes of the sights and sound associated with our lunch.

Joliet , IL- Retired Bolingbrook police sergeant, Drew Peterson is on trial for his life for murdering his third wife. Despite paper thin evidence consisting of double hearsay a Grand Jury has returned a murder indictment. On Friday Peterson’s attorneys argued a motion before Judge Stephen White for a change of venue over pre -trial publicity issues. Because of heavy publicity and prosecution fueled venom the public perception is that Peterson is not just a murderer but a double murderer. Can Peterson get a fair trial? I say no jury can be found that has not already been influenced beyond repair. They may find jurors that give the right answers to questions about impartiality but the answers will be deceptive. Judge White’s Problems: 1. Many jurors, particularly those that don’t have a life, love to get selected for high profile cases. They see opportunities for fame, fortune and perhaps even a book in their future. They will do anything including lie during Voir Dire to get picked...

Click on picture to enlarge it. Aschaffenburg, Germany —As a U.S. Army conscript I was lucky enough to sit out the Viet Nam War as a medical corpsman here. I was all of 20 years-old when my Military Airlift Command jet touched down on a snowy Frankfurt runway in December of 1968. I lived and worked there until my military obligation was completed in June of 1970. I wasted no time in getting to know the people customs, and language. I avoided spending any time around my fellow soldiers as I went on a non-stop exploration of a country that was still making repairs from allied bombing a couple of decades earlier. Many of the older people were unhappy with Americans and viewed us as an occupation army. Others were happy to have us protecting them from the Bolshevik bastards that raped the women and children when Germany fell. Many Americans want to blame the German people for the acts of their politicians that led to World War Two. Adolph Hitler mesmerized that population just as that Ma...

Sacramento, CA— Facing bankruptcy for decades of wild spending California has to come to grips with a new court order to release tens of thousands of convicts to the streets. This will be the first order of business when the State Assembly returns from their recess on Monday. They are looking in every wrong direction at ways to change laws like reclassifying felonies as misdemeanors. They will probably repeal the so-called, Three-Strikes Law as they look for the wrong ways to save some operating expense. Undoubtedly the convicts will migrate to and ravage nearby states once the doors swing open. The cost to taxpayers for the new crime committed will dwarf the present corrections budget. It’s not difficult to imagine the hospital bills for the new victims will be as these unemployable felons raid the communities. Of course giving the law-abiding citizens of California the right to protect themselves with concealed weapons will never see the light of day in the Socialist run state. The ...

As our mainstream broadcast and print media fades off to the sunset, YouTube has risen. Yes, YouTube is a free for all but it’s free speech at its best. Those video moments of politicians misleading Americans can be counted on being replayed the very second memories begin to fade. These days political or corporate corruption can’t seem to escape exposure on YouTube. If the mainstream media chooses to keep the public in the dark, YouTube citizen reporters and producers fill that vast void. Free speech is the very cornerstone to our free society. As a staunch and unyielding Second Amendment supporter I can say the computer keyboard and the video camera are mightier than the sword. Each right protects the other. The Internet is a natural enemy to dictators and despots. We must fight to keep it free or they will tax and regulate it out of existence. The camera and the keyboard are not tools for the exclusive use of Conservatives or Liberals. If you don’t have a video camera get one! ...

Washington, DC —I can’t imagine that anyone was really that stupid to believe this pretender’s claims to never raise taxes. Barack Obama did what all crooked politicians do best; lie to the voters just to get elected. Obama has been closely following the Marxist playbook; Das Kapatal and can only succeed with his government model with a totally dependent and impoverished population. Marxists judge their success on how well they keep their population orderly and silent through heavy handed police state tactics. We all know that with Obama’s non-stop bailouts, massive efforts to end free enterprise, cap and trade scam, the hostile takeover of the health care and insurance industries enormous tax increases would enslave every American. It is time to rid ourselves of this fraudulent President and start over. Polls show many Americans that voted for him, are now remorseful. Obama is well past the point of no return before he completed the first year of his term. In case you missed it w...

If you want to see the reality of extreme hatred of Americans who want to preserve Liberty and Freedom in America, the pathetic souls at, democraticunderground.com have lots of ideas to offer for their vision of America. They seem so desperate to silence Americans finding their voice and making their Congress aware that they don’t want a Communist United States. They are a dangerous bunch, which seems anxious to bring on violence against Conservatives. The whack jobs at democraticunderground.com believe free speech is only for them. Visit The democraticunderground hate site here.

Montgomery, AL—The Southern Poverty Law Center is warning of a, Second Wave of the militia movement inside the United States. They call the militia movements anti-government, but are they really? Are they really just trying to preserve our form of government that’s been under constant attack by Marxist operatives? The SPLC has long been known for their Communist leanings under the guise of protecting the poor and disenfranchised minority groups. In fairness they have diligently worked against real crimes committed by such groups at the KKK and various neo-Nazi groups. The problem with the SPLC is they lump Conservative Americans or anyone who opposes their own Marxist agenda as hate mongers. They have zero credibility as they goad government and law enforcement officials to wage war on gun owners and those seeking to reduce the size of government and extortionate taxation. The SPLC has just issued and distributed a new report claiming the Second Wave of the militia groups is building...

You are not alone! Just find yourself a support group and a middle-aged mistral to help you cope.

Portsmouth, NH — Chairman Barack Obama went to town hall meeting in the, Live Free Or Die state of New Hampshire. An anti-Obama protester, William Kostrick was present in a position well outside the meeting hall with a loaded and holstered handgun. That was his unquestionable right except in the eyes of some people who went absolutely berserk at the simple display. The man also carried a sign with a quote from a great American, Thomas Jefferson that was and is still provocative. Freedom is here because as George Orwell said, “Men sleep peacefully in their beds at night because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.” Freedom is being threatened by the Obama regime and the threat is not idle. He and his un-American cabal has begun dismantling free enterprise, our entire monetary system and is moving to place Americans under the yoke of Socialist slavery. We still have the right to peaceably assemble with the right to keep and bear arms. Both rights of these rights are un...

Waterloo, Canada —It’s about to hit our sky very soon at a mere $50K per copy. It’s called the Aeryon Scout and will allow minimally skilled users to capture high resolution images of events happening below. The drone is all electric and operates silently. Its knapsack sized package can be opened and the drone deployed from a car trunk in seconds. The initial intended end users will be security companies, police and we can count on the news organizations avoiding the high cost of helicopter air time. . For news organizations they will be able to own the sky over crime scenes at least until police or medical helicopters are present. The company boasts their drone will operate in bad weather and is waterproof. I can see the Hollywood paparazzi industry jumping on this gee whiz gizmo in a New York second. You can get more information and place your order here .

 

Washington, DC —One thing nobody wants to talk about is the absolute right to free medical care for criminal aliens under Barack Obama’s hostile government takeover of the medical and health insurance industries. Illegal alien drug dealers, human traffickers and even killers doing their nasty business inside our borders would get the same care as our own law-abiding citizens that paid taxes their whole lives. Call Congress today and tell them to stop Obamacare now at 202-225-3121

Joliet, IL —They finally indicted retired Bolingbrook police sergeant Drew Peterson on a dubious count of murdering his third wife. The physical evidence of is non-existent and the exact cause of her death is far from certain. Prosecutors are relying on a brand new and perhaps Ex-Post Facto law to enable this prosecution. As Peterson languishes in jail with an unheard of $20 million bond, his lawyers are scrambling to get him his fair day in court. The “evidence” here is primarily double hearsay evidence. This Indictment and prosecution was enabled by the “Drew Peterson Law”, which was strictly an emotional response to a stalled police investigation by the Illinois Legislature. They changed the law, sidestepping Drew Peterson’s Constitutional right to face his accusers. This legislative response was both unconstitutional and un-American. They already allow prosecutors to present hearsay evidence of alleged confessions by defendants. This is where they take some burglar out of j...

Washington, DC —As the Communists has taken control of our government and placed taxpayers under siege they seem to have forgotten something. The ultimate power lies with America’s taxpaying producers. We have the ability to shut down this rogue government with our collective clout. The government can be brought to its knees with a three-day productivity moratorium. We don’t buy anything nor do we sell anything for three day periods. During a normally busy week every business can shut down for three days. Government employees can call in sick to work. People can refuse to buy or sell goods. A three day holiday would cost federal, state and local governments billions in lost revenue and force them to do without. Unlike refusing to pay taxes that might bring prosecution shutting down our own businesses violates no laws. Imagine what three-days loss of parking garage tax revenue would do to Chicago’s Daley-Burke crime families ? Why produce just to have the profits taken and redistribut...

Los Angeles, CA —Forty years is indeed a milestone since the nights of unbridled horror rocked Hollywood. A bunch of seemingly disenfranchised kids were misled by an older ex-con who was a charismatic aspiring musician. That group of naive kids was taken down a path straight to Hell. The crimes were beyond unimaginable and senseless. Was this a product of a mind control experiment gone wrong? I’ve heard all the theories by the so-called experts and can except none of them. Perhaps we will never know. One thing for sure. If there ever were crimes that justified the death penalty these were at the very top of the list. Fuhrman vs. Georgia changed all that in 1972 when the Manson Family was resentenced to life. Mitigation Most Americans can find any mitigation or reason for mercy for the Manson Family horrors. Excuse me for suggesting that the mad acts of first time offenders under unparalleled influence of drugs and an evil leader deserve study and perhaps some form of mercy. It ...

Columbus, OH— This came to me via a Facebook friend who works as a Cook County Public Defender in Chicago. At this time I can’t give you background on the underlying circumstances that brought the police to this scene. You see the event unfold as the cell-phone camera owner and others agitate the police for all they're worth. An old woman goes down hard and was bleeding after she brandished a nasty looking knife at a young policewoman. The officer properly followed her training here. The results are tragic in that the old gal somehow lost it. I’m sure the officer was herself traumatized by the entire event. This was one of those split-second decisions cops must sometimes make. For those that don’t know it knives at close range are much more deadly than firearms.
