Phoenix, AZ —Okay we all know that the vast majority of journalists working for the major publications and TV news outlets are very Liberal. We know at best they make only a lame effort to hide their Socialist politics. They are for the most part deeply in love with Barack Obama and won’t report anything that ever casts him in an unfavorable light. By comparison simply look at how the same media treated former President Richard M. Nixon when some burglars tried to find political fodder believed hidden in the office of the Democratic National Committee at the Watergate complex. There is a vast difference here in that The Obama Justice Department intentionally and criminally conspired to move thousands of weapons from American gun dealers to drug cartels of Mexico and the notorious MS-13 Murder Gang of Honduras. Loads of serious state and federal laws were violated in the process. The only possible purpose of the conspiracy was to create a major violence crisis and blame it all o...

Washington, DC— Barack Obama and his Merry Marxist Czar Cabinet forgot they lost the House of Representatives in the last election. They also forgot that phony campaign promise that taxes would not be increased a single dime for Americans. Does Obama threaten the illegal aliens that they will be cut off from any government benefits? Does he suggest that the assets of PBS and NPR be placed on the auction block and threaten the Left with an end to their taxpayer provided Socialist propaganda? Does he dare suggest that all funding to ACORN, Planned Parenthood and other questionable or optional organizations be slashed? Does he suggest ending the misguided and failed Drug War ? Does he shut down the BATFE after decades of abuse like the WACO Massacre and now the arming of Mexican drug cartels and the MS-13 gang of Central America with thousands of deadly firearms now being used to murder Americans? Why no, Obama tells America’s grandparents that they won’t be getting their hard ea...

Chicago, IL— West Side thug, Marquis Harrison , 16, stole a nice Range Rover in Old Town. He was observed by police zipping through a stop sign and rather than quit Harrison tried to run the cops over and recklessly fled leading police on a wild chase. Harrison was loaded up with vodka and Ecstasy as the deadly weapon he drove broadsided Marciea Adkins , a police dispatcher on her way to the safety of her home after working the graveyard shift killing her. Now Harrison is facing a Murder beef as well as a host of other felonies. The bad news here is he probably will escape being tried as an adult for his adult criminal acts. Soon we can count on hearing from those that will blame the police for the murder saying it was their chasing of Harrison that caused the young thug to kill Adkins. We will probably hear that the police stop was a case of racial profiling made by racist cops looking to ruin the life of some poor Black kid. Welcome to Chicago…

Rio Rico, AZ —Last December, Customs and Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry , 40 was gunned down as he interrupted a gang of heavily armed Mexican robbers preying on Illegal immigrants. Terry was shot to death with one of two recovered AK-47 copy rifles intentionally made available by Obama Justice Department officials to known criminals. This case is under Congressional investigation and so far the Obama Whitehouse and Obama Justice Department has engaged in a massive cover-up. To say they’re stonewalling is an understatement. They are criminally obstructing justice. In Arizona like ever other state, furnishing a weapon to a criminal who then uses it in a murder makes the person providing that weapon guilty of murder. There is no exemption for politicians, public officials at any level for this kind of criminal conduct. The fact is, that the Obama Justice Department has knowingly and intentionally allowed thousands of high-powered weapons to be placed into the hands of criminals....

Phoenix, AZ —The embattled Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Explosives was given a massive infusion of cold hard “stimulus” cash by the Obama Administration. This agency is our, Secret Gun Police . What did they do with all that cash you’re asking? The answers are coming Fast and Furious in an unfolding criminal conspiracy. The Obama Administration has operated a shadow government of un-vetted, unelected czars that make government policy as they operate in secret. Secrecy has been the most common ingredient and trademark of every rogue criminal government on this earth. The Obama Administration exists today because of massive campaign contributions from the political Left wing that wants a one world Socialist state. The Left with the assistance of the Socialist majority United Nations have been on a mission for global gun control. They seek to only have member governments armed and for nefarious reasons. Resistance to Socialist government by oppressed people is impossible if you can...

Los Angeles, CA —The shockwaves were felt everywhere because media giant, Rupert Murdoch shut down, News of the World. It seems that this sad turn of events happened because some overly aggressive and unethical reporters got and used information from hacked voicemail. This is a crime nearly everywhere in the civilized world. Journalists committing crimes to gather news casts a dark shadow on the entire industry. For my media friends in L.A. this is no small event. Murdoch felt this conduct was so egregious he took it upon himself to end publication of this outrageously successful news organization. I can’t imagine the damage done to the workers and their families that were not a part of this troublesome scheme. They are all apparently only going to receive 90 day severance packages. Nowhere on earth is the competition between news organizations stronger than in the UK. The competition is nearly always healthy and important in our civilization. Without a strong and observant medi...

Chicago, IL —Okay, I told you so! After the U.S. Supreme Court laid down the law in the Heller and McDonald cases I said Illinois would have to pass a CCW permit law or see the ban lifted altogether. The Second Amendment has been applied to state and local governments too. You not only have a right to keep arms but to bear them as well. Yesterday the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals overturned a U.S. District Court Judge and invalidated the Chicago ban on gun ranges. The language in the opinion opened a wide door for the issuance of a Preliminary Injunction Order invalidating the Illinois Concealed weapon ban. Since despite a solid legislative majority, Governor Pat Quinn’s threatened veto sandbagged the proposed Illinois concealed weapon permit law. The ban was still standing, until now. Today the Second Amendment Foundation applied for a Preliminary Injunction Order precluding enforcement of the carrying ban. The Judge will have to issue the injunction or get spanked ag...

Chicago, IL —In a city that is fiscally destitute there has been no end to needless massive litigation costs fighting Chicagoan’s rights to keep and bear arms. Good money after bad has been wasted by Chicago officials. The Chicago City Council has been working outside the law by enacting unreasonable restrictions designed to violate Chicagoan’s civil rights. This time it was the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals that has slapped former mayor Richard M. Daley and his lawless aldermen for their obstruction. Read the opinion right here: 7th Circuit July 6, 2011 Below is action taken today by Chicago's Aldermen: Council_070611_direct Gun Release v4[1]

Orlando, FL —A child’s death is always serious. In this case police, prosecutors and their experts could not explain the cause of little Cayley Anthony’s death. They could only suspect that the child was murdered and that her mother was the killer. Casey Anthony lied to authorities in a troubling effort to cover up what the defense offered up as an accidental drowning. Covering up negligence is no small part or the American culture and so is deception. Corporations and every level of our government routinely cover up despicable actions by officials Casey Anthony’s cover up was inspired by our modern cultural deficiencies. This deception was an act of, "Monkey see, monkey do.” I see the behavior of Anthony after the death of her daughter including the partying and normal behavior of a young woman was nothing more than an attempt to pretend nothing was wrong. This was simply more deception rather than what some people perceive as celebration. I won’t however dismiss the dark th...

Orlando, FL —The sequestered jury was somewhat protected from the shrill voices of those wishing death for Casey Anthony . To return with guilty verdicts on the homicide related charges the jury would have had to guess their way through lousy evidence. The convictions for lying to the cops were certainly reasonable since that evidence was uncontroverted. The fact is she lied in a world where lies roll of the tongues of Americans every day. Thankfully few liars are killers or we would have exterminated ourselves long ago. I know the true crime buffs that live only for convictions in high profile court cases suffered a tremendous setback. Get over it since we are a country where the government has to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Casey Anthony will easily be set free suffering the loss of over two years of her life for four somewhat redundant misdemeanor charges. Aside from the acquittal I never bought the theory she knowingly killed her child. We live in a world were acciden...

Chicago, IL —Occupants of an apartment on this North Halsted Street recorded some video last night of a mob of African-Americans that viciously beat and stabbed their victim. Nobody in their right mind would live here and pay taxes. It’s too bad the person shooting the video camera was not shooting a .12 gauge shotgun at the savages committing this outrages crime. The use of that shotgun on the mob would have been legally justifiable for sure.

Perhaps you flew to your favorite getaway for the Fourth of July weekend. If you did you posed for perhaps a hundred cameras, got groped and X-Rayed by the lower forms of life hired by the TSA . If you were lucky they were unable to steal your valuables or cash. Your credit and debit cards left a trail for anyone to follow. They know what you ate, drank, where you slept and with whom. Privacy in America is dead. If you drove you left your IPass trail at every tollgate and upon entering various jurisdictions had to stop for police checkpoints along the way. They were able to snap a picture of you or two driving through photo traffic enforcement traps. They know the route you took as you stopped for fuel and meals. You used you cell phone so they know where you were and all about the calls you made and received. You text messages and emails are neatly filed away for future snooping. You’re short on funds this year since you have been forced to pay for the medical ca...

Chicago, IL —Former Mayor Richard M. Daley was a master at throwing away good taxpayer money after bad. He felt his dictatorial ability trumped the Constitution’s Bill of Rights. Daley insisted on violating the civil rights of Chicagoans even after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled twice overturning gun bans. Daley spent millions and lost millions more when the courts ruled that the city pay the plaintiff’s legal fees. The dopes writing for the Chicago media outfits claim the city was ordered to pay the NRA . They seem to forget that the NRA was never the Plaintiff and that it was ordinary citizens of Chicago brought the action against their city’s tyranny. How many police officers could they have hired and trained with the money wasted fighting Chicagoan’s right to self-protection? How many prison beds could have been funded for violent offenders with the cash? Chicago’s new police superintendent put his shoe in his mouth at a lame attempt to revise gun control history. Garry McCarthy ...

I get a lot of questions from fans of this blog about production on a shoestring budget. It’s not easy to take the time and commute to where the stories are and creating compelling content. At Crimefile News we are upgrading equipment so this is a great time to talk about this subject. Today the costs are only a tiny fraction of what it took to accomplish decent video production even a decade ago. Better and cheaper equipment is available everywhere. Costs: Blogging software: Free Camera: $150 to $4,000.00 Computer (MacBook Pro) $1,400.00 Video Editing Software: Final Cut Pro X: $300.00 Blue Snowball Microphone: $60.00 Camera LED light: $100.00 Tripod: $50.00 Training: Free via YouTube contributors. You can be in business for less than $2,000.00 or go whole hog getting a great camera like my JVC GY-HM100U, extra lights and a couple of good quality wireless microphones and still stay under $5000.00 in equipment costs. The goal here at Crimefile News is to give the special peop...

Chicago, IL —This city has been dictating to the entire state politically for far too long. The Windy City is controlled and run by diehard Socialists that have created their own Utopia. The problem is that love for this political scheme is not shared statewide. Cook County needs to be a separate state perhaps called Northeastern Illinois. The political and social division between the other Illinois counties and Cook is staggering. It’s time that the other counties and Cook part ways. The Socialists in Chicago can do what they want to themselves but should no longer be able to control the lives and property of the other counties that reject the un-American direction Chicago has taken. This idea was unveiled in Southern California by Riverside County Supervisor Jeff Stone . He is spearheading a drive that may cause thirteen counties to secede for California and form the state of Southern, California. Stone’s goal is to secure the Southern border, balance budgets and improve schools...

Chicago, IL —Protecting his country in both World War Two and the Korean Conflict was no problem for LaFerena Batchelor, 84 but now he is not even allowed to protect himself. You see in this city run by officials that gratuitously violates the Constitutional Rights of their citizens as they label Batchelor and others criminals. The McDonald and Heller cases issued by the U.S. Supreme Court made it abundantly clear that all Americans not convicted of felony crimes or those witout a history of mental illness have the absolute right to keep and bear arms for self-defense purposes. In Batchelor’s case he was denied the right to obtain a gun because he once fired a gun within the city limits to chase a pack of wild dogs away from his home. That was no felony but a very minor transgressio that happened 15 years ago. Chicago officials now simply refuse their “permission” for Batchelor to own a firearm. To Batchelor’s rescue is Chicago lawyer Joel Brodsky who is prepared to take the ci...

As we approach the Fourth of July we need to reevaluate why we bother to celebrate our pretend independence. Fireworks, parties and flag-waiving are wasted on a couple of generations of propagandized and brainwashed Americans that never experienced real freedom. Americans have always assumed they had right to travel unimpeded by government. Who’d have thought in the days of the Continental Congress that we’d allow government to erect checkpoints where traveling Americans would be forced to submit to constant X-Rays and groping by an ignorant underclass of government workers? People sigh and say times have changed and the world is somehow more dangerous. That is the big lie. Times or the dangers we face have never once changed since this country was founded. There were always bombs, guns and terrorists throughout this nation’s history. We’ve endured wars and even a Civil War without throwing our liberty away. We have allowed some insignificant 13th Century minded Muslim crazies t...

Chicago, IL —Having a time consuming assignment in this fine old neighborhood is not bad considering many great restaurants in the area. Taylor Street was the location of one of my all time favorites, Genero’s but that great place closed down. I became addicted to Genero’s when I was assigned to the Monroe Street District in my youth Not to be dismayed I set out in search of some older looking; in the know neighborhood types and found a small group that might give us a recommendation. They told us to go to Salatino’s nearby at 626 S. Racine. Getting a parking spot was not too difficult and we were seated quickly considering it was a Friday night. We were greeted by General Manager Jimmy Psyhogios who was a friendly take charge type guy intent on making sure we had an enjoyable experience. When I think of Italian dining there is an image of red-checkered table clothes and a candle stuck in an empty basket-bottle of Dago Red. Of course there should be the Mario Lanzi, Eddie Fisher...

Phoenix, AZ —First let me say that Gays and Grannies need love too. Those that must work also deserve comparable wages as everyone in similar skill levels. They all have worth and rate fair treatment along with genuine respect. Here someone dared suggest that Gay men and older women may be better received in occupations other than that of flight attendants. Yes a Southwest Airlines pilot got caught on an open air traffic microphone ranting about the “New Breed” of flight attendants working for the airline. He made some unflattering remarks about the Gays and Grannies that have taken over the domain once reserved for young and friendly pretty ladies. First of all the ousting of the Southwest Airlines eye candy is disheartening for any straight male. The law, corporate attitudes and political correctness have changed in America. Is this for the better? I don’t think so. We are today a nation or crybabies that can’t accept anyone criticizing their culture, lifestyle, sexual preferenc...

Chicago, I L—Surveillance cameras will be doubled for Chicago’s public transportation system. That was today’s announcement from city officials as a treatment for the rash of cell phone and IPod robberies. The wonderful thing about surveillance cameras is not their effectiveness to reduce crime but the political contributions generated by the contractors providing them do great things for re-election campaigns. Cameras are really not that helpful. There are thousands of images of dangerous criminals that never get identified. Video recordings are worthless in and of themselves. Most people are unaware that a picture or video in and off itself is hearsay and therefore inadmissible as courtroom evidence without an, eyewitness and or DNA evidence. No jury will never be given the task to determine if the subject in the video is the suspect charged with a crime absent the testimony of a human at the scene. One by one traffic photo Robocams are being removed from American streets as the c...
