DENVER (CBS4) – A female passenger parading through a Denver International Airport concourse last month without any clothing drew attention from fellow passengers and airport police. The woman, who had no luggage, appeared to be carrying some kind of a thermos, bottle or drink holder in her right hand. Beyond that, she was completely naked.

“How are you doing? Where are you from?” she asked bystanders who were videotaping her.

In a minute-long video clip shared with CBS4, Denver police officers with a large blanket can be seen following the woman in an attempt to get her to cover up. She was smiling and laughing.

“Ma’am, ma’am,” police can be heard calling to the woman as they followed her.

At one point she skips away from police who are attempting to wrap the blanket around her.*** https://denver.cbslocal.com/2021/10/11/naked-female-passenger-denver-international-airport-draw-attention-police-response/

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (KMIZ)

A Cole County prosecutor has charged a Jefferson City woman after she allegedly ran onto a football field naked in front of a group of eighth-graders practicing football.

Lacey Uthe is charged with sexual misconduct involving a child under 15, a class e felony.***

Uthe told an officer that she had reportedly ingested heroin then left her residence naked and looked for help because she thought she would die***

***The Smith County jury deliberated for about an hour before finding William George Davis, of Hallsville, guilty of capital murder involving multiple victims. Prosecutors planned to seek the death penalty during the sentencing phase, which was scheduled to start Wednesday.

Davis, 37, was accused of injecting air into the four patients' arteries after they underwent heart surgery at the Christus Trinity Mother Frances Hospital in Tyler in 2017 and 2018. During recovery from their surgeries, the four — John Lafferty, Ronald Clark, Christopher Greenway, and Joseph Kalina — suffered unexplained neurological problems and died.*** https://www.foxnews.com/us/texas-nurse-convicted-killing-4-men-air-injections

The magic of alcohol

Two newly hired physical education teachers at Florida elementary schools were arrested after the shooting of a man whose apartment they entered thinking it belonged to someone else following a night of drinking.

One of the teachers mistakenly climbed into bed with the man, his wife and their baby, and the other teacher went to the bathroom before the male occupant of the house escorted them out. The teachers believed they had entered the apartment of one of their friends.***

The teachers were Darius Cohen and Akkua Hallback.***

Cohen admitted to detectives that he fired the shots, the arrest affidavit said. Cohen, 26, is facing a charge of attempted felony murder. Court records showed he was still in jail Tuesday, and a court docket showed no attorney listed for him.

His fellow teacher, Hallback, 27, is facing a charge of possession of a controlled substance. Court records showed no attorney listed for him.*** https://www.foxnews.com/us/florida-teachers-arrested-wrong-home-shooting-man

Keep your face out of your phone!

In Dec 2019, "Luchiano Lewis, now 16, and his friends" murdered college student Tessa Majors.

Lewis and two middle school pals — Rashaun Weaver, then 14, and Zyairr Davis, then 13 — stabbed Majors, 18, to death during the botched robbery in Morningside Park.***

Weaver was the first to attack the college freshman after she passed the trio while staring down at her phone. He ran up behind her and kicked her hard in the back. A tussle ensued and Majors bit Weaver, then yelled for help.

That’s when Lewis allegedly held her in a headlock, and Weaver repeatedly stabbed her, piercing her heart, and sending the feathers of her down coat into the air. The boys fled with her iPhone.

Lewis pleaded guilty last month to second-degree murder and first-degree robbery.*** https://www.foxnews.com/us/teen-sentenced-9-year-life-murder-tessa-majors-dad-breaks-down-court

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — Portland police say new legislation passed in Oregon dramatically limits their options when it comes to intervening during destructive protests and riots.

Lt. Jake Jensen with the Portland Police Bureau joined the Pearl District Neighborhood Association meeting Thursday night on the heels of widespread vandalism in the area.***

“The reason that we did not intervene goes back to what we talked about last month with HB 2928 and the restrictions placed on us in a crowd control environment,” he explained.

A KOIN 6 News crew watched as officers remained in their vehicles Tuesday night as the destruction unfolded.

“That’s the way our legislature has said we need to operate in a crowd control environment. So that’s the way we are going to operate in a crowd control environment,” Jensen said.

Jensen cited limitations regarding the use of pepper spray and other tools officers previously used.***

“Does that mean we are now like a lawless city, anyone can come in and just bash around and do all the damage they want without any repercussions whatsoever?” asked resident Linda Witt.

Jensen said that’s not the case because people can still face repercussions later.*** https://www.koin.com/news/protests/pearl-district-residents-to-ppb-are-we-a-lawless-city/

An explosion of violence in Portland has forced police to resort to creative tactics in an effort to address increasing gun violence with limited resources.

City officials began earlier this month placing traffic barrels on streets where high-speed drive-by shootings have broken out in an effort to obstruct future ones.

Portland police are also no longer pulling over drivers for minor traffic violations, such as expired tags.***

Portland marked a grim milestone in recent weeks when it recorded its 67th homicide, breaking the city’s previous record of 66 homicides in a single year, which occurred in 1987.***

Meanwhile, residents have reported long wait times for 911 calls as police and dispatchers struggle to handle the growing number of calls, with violence spreading.

Portland Police Chief Chuck Lovell announced on Saturday that the city has endured more than 1,000 documented shootings this year.*** https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/politics/undermanned-portland-police-resort-to-traffic-barrels-to-stop-drive-bys-as-murders-soar

Philly is worse than you think

A man was charged with raping a woman on a train outside of Philadelphia as fellow passengers watched, held up phones and did nothing to intervene, police said.

The man, Fiston Ngoy, 35, harassed the woman, groped her and eventually raped her as fellow passengers watched the assault through more than two dozen train stops, authorities said. Police believe no one called authorities, though they are investigating whether any of the witnesses may have recorded the incident.***

surveillance footage captured the assault and appeared to show other passengers possibly recording the attack. "There were people witnessing the act with phones in their hands," Nestel said. "People were holding their phone up in the direction of this woman being attacked."***

Ngoy sat down next to the woman about a minute after he boarded the train car, shortly after 9:15 p.m. The video shows her pushing him away multiple times until he is seen ripping her pants down at about 9:52 p.m.***

According to the court documents, the woman told police that Ngoy ignored her pleas to go away. Ngoy claimed he knew the victim and said the encounter was consensual, but he could not remember her name, the arrest affidavit states. His last address was listed as a homeless shelter.*** https://news.yahoo.com/angry-disgusted-train-riders-held-215643019.html?guccounter=1

*** the Congolese man’s visa was reportedly terminated in 2015.

He has previously been held for multiple arrests and two misdemeanour convictions, including one count of sexual abuse and for controlled substances, court records show.

The 35-year-old man had also pled guilty to a sexual abuse offence in 2017 in Washington DC, resulting in a prison sentence of 120 days and additional nine months of probation.

After this, he was sent to immigration detention in January 2018 but was not deported after an immigration judge ordered a “withholding of removal” notice in March 2019. This came after the Board of Immigration Appeals noted that the sex offence committed by him was not a “serious crime” rendering him ineligible to remain in the US.*** https://news.yahoo.com/pennsylvania-train-rape-suspect-had-062412588.html

A federal judge placed top officials in the U.S. Department of Corrections in contempt Wednesday after ruling they violated the civil rights of a prisoner.

District Judge Royce Lamberth said the violation came when Washington's Department of Corrections Director Quincy Booth and Warden Wanda Patten refused to provide medical papers for Christopher Worrell, an accused Jan. 6 rioter. Worrell broke his hand in May, and a surgeon recommended in June he get surgery, medical treatment that he reportedly still has not received.

"It is more than just inept and bureaucratic shuffling of papers," Lamberth said, according to multiple outlets. "I find that the civil rights of the defendant have been abridged. I don't know if it's because he is a Jan. 6 defendant or not, but I find that this matter should be referred to the attorney general of the United States ... for a civil rights investigation."***

The conditions for those taken prisoner following the Jan. 6 riot have been called into question. Many of the detainees have been held in solitary confinement, an arrangement that has drawn bipartisan criticism from political figures such as Sens. Elizabeth Warren and Lindsey Graham.*** https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/judge-rules-correction-officials-infringe-rights

As Glenngary, Glen Ross teaches, "Always Be Closing!"

An Instagram model stabbed her boyfriend with a kitchen knife during a fight inside her Midtown pad, police said Tuesday — and later walked out of a Manhattan courthouse touting her OnlyFans account.

Genie Exum — a 22-year-old social-media model who recently flashed her breasts in front of an NYPD cop car — knifed beau Babyboy Pajulas in the back and arm around 6:45 p.m. Monday inside her 10th Avenue apartment in Manhattan, authorities said.

“Subscribe to my OnlyFans!,” Exum told a Post reporter with a smirk — even spelling out the name of her account — as she got back to her high-rise late Tuesday.*** https://nypost.com/2021/10/19/instagram-model-genie-exum-stabs-boyfriend-in-nyc-pad-cops/

The crime is apparently failing to terminate Babyboy's narcissistic posing???

Should make your perp walk more interesting.

British ex-spy Christopher Steele says he isn’t worried about being indicted in special counsel John Durham's criminal inquiry into the Russia investigation, even after the indictment of a Hillary Clinton campaign-linked lawyer with whom the former MI6 agent coordinated in 2016.

“I’m interested to see what he publishes and what he says about us and others,” Steele said of Durham’s investigation during a recent interview. He answered "no" when asked if he was worried he would be indicted.*** https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/justice/christopher-steele-claims-he-isnt-worried-about-durham-indictment

Little people news -

Normally, there’s a word for taking someone’s property and keeping it: theft. Yet, for Wilmington, Delaware, and its private towing contractors, taking property and keeping it is just standard towing and impound procedure.

The city’s program is transparently abusive and blatantly unconstitutional. Here’s how it works: Wilmington outsources its municipal program to private companies, “paying” for these services by giving the towing companies the power to keep people’s cars. The city gets the service at no cost, and contractors make money by keeping and scrapping many of the cars they tow. Vehicle owners, meanwhile, lose everything.

Watch the case video to learn more.

The system is a cash cow for Wilmington. The city issues a lot of parking tickets and then tells its contractors to tow any legally parked car with $200 or more in outstanding fines. Once they take your car, the only way to get it out of the pound is to pay Wilmington every penny it demands for parking tickets, plus penalties and fees.*** https://ij.org/ll/october-2021-volume-30-issue-5/government-theft-auto//

This summer, Erica and Zach Mallory of Eagle, Wisconsin, scored an important victory for the freedom to speak out against government abuses. A federal court ruled for them and for IJ in our challenge to unconstitutional retaliation from local government officials who didn’t like the Mallorys’ criticism of their bad behavior. The judge ordered Eagle to stop enforcement actions against the couple while their case continues.

Back in November 2020, IJ stepped in to help Erica and Zach, who own a family farm in Eagle, a small town in southeastern Wisconsin. The Mallorys started speaking out against actions by local government there when they noticed neighbors being treated unfairly. Unhappy with these criticisms, town officials soon came after the Mallorys, issuing citations for petty code violations like patches of grass being too tall and an unpermitted flower box. The Mallorys tried to comply with the ordinances enforced against them, making numerous changes to their property. The town wouldn’t relent; instead, it repeatedly inspected the Mallorys’ farm and threatened them with tens of thousands of dollars in fines.

So the Mallorys joined with IJ to hold the town accountable for its retaliatory, unconstitutional ordinance enforcement practices. Eagle’s actions violate the First Amendment’s protections against government retaliation, and the town’s enforcement methods violate due process. For instance, Eagle relies on an hourly paid law firm to enforce its code, then passes its hefty legal bills on to accused town residents. The town also begins racking up fees against residents without any proof that the violations it alleges actually occurred.*** https://ij.org/ll/october-2021-volume-30-issue-5/family-farm-wins-early-victory-against-local-retaliation/

Sure, why not trust the IRS?

A federal grand jury in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, returned an indictment in July, which was unsealed [Tues], charging a South Carolina man with tax evasion and attempting to obstruct an IRS civil audit and an IRS criminal investigation.

According to the indictment, Wayne M. Garvin, currently of Columbia, South Carolina, and previously of Philadelphia, allegedly filed individual income tax returns for the years 2012 through 2016 on which he claimed fraudulent deductions and expenses, including charitable contribution deductions and expenses associated with rental properties that he owned for some years. For the year 2013, Garvin also allegedly claimed he had expenses associated with service in the U.S. Army Reserves even though he did not perform any reservist duty that year. At the time Garvin filed his false tax returns, he was employed as a Supervisory Associate Advocate with the IRS’s Taxpayer Advocate Service in Philadelphia.

The indictment also alleges that after the IRS began an audit of Garvin’s 2013 and 2014 tax returns, Garvin submitted fraudulent documents to the IRS revenue agent conducting the audit.*** https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/former-irs-employee-charged-tax-fraud

If Aryan Brotherhood is too white for you...

An enrolled member of the Seminole Nation of Oklahoma and member of the Indian Brotherhood (IBH), a prison-based gang active in Oklahoma, pleaded guilty today to charges related to two separate homicides that took place in 2015 and 2017 within Indian Country in Oklahoma.

According to court documents, in May 2015, Matthew Onesimo Armstrong, 32, of Seminole, Oklahoma, received orders from the IBH to question an individual about an unrelated homicide. On May 30, 2015, Armstrong went to victim Scotty Candler’s home with a firearm to question, scare and assault Candler. He was purportedly accompanied by John Douglas Knight, who was also associated with IBH and carrying a firearm. Outside the residence, Armstrong discharged two gunshots when Candler’s dogs ran out, while Knight, allegedly, entered the residence and fired one shot, killing Candler.

As set forth in the plea agreement, in 2017 Armstrong was involved in smuggling methamphetamine and other contraband for IBH into various prisons and jails. On April 16, 2017, at Armstrong’s residence, Armstrong had a dispute with victim Nicole Owl, who was also staying at the home. Armstrong and Nicholas Earl Faulkner took Owl into a wooded area behind the residence where Armstrong tied her to a tree. He left Owl tied to the tree for several hours and then returned with a rifle. Armstrong asked Faulkner if he wanted to shoot Owl, and Faulkner said “no.” Armstrong then shot Owl twice, killing her.*** https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/individual-pleads-guilty-murder-indian-country

Missing details?

*** Alan Douglas Fox, 28, of Nashville, pleaded guilty to all counts of an information charging him with setting fire to the Crievewood United Methodist Church on June 17, 2019; the Crievewood Baptist Church on June 25, 2019; the Saint Ignatius of Antioch Catholic Church on June 25, 2019; and the Priest Lake Community Baptist Church on June 26, 2019; and with carrying and using a firearm during the arson of the Crievewood Baptist Church. During the plea hearing, Fox admitted to intentionally setting the fires because of the religious character of the four churches.***

U.S. District Judge Eli J. Richardson of the Middle District of Tennessee scheduled sentencing for Feb. 11, 2022. By the terms of the plea, Fox faces up to 20 years in prison for each fire and a consecutive five-year sentence for the firearms violation.*** https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/tennessee-man-pleads-guilty-civil-rights-violations-series-church-arsons

Jonathan Toebbe, a nuclear engineer at the Navy’s Nuclear Propulsion Program, & wife, Diana case

***The arraignment and detention hearing for Jonathan lasted only a few minutes. He pleaded “not guilty” to the charges, each of which could land him up to life in prison. His lawyer, Nicholas Compton, told the judge he understood it meant he will remain behind bars unless he is granted bond. The judge scheduled jury selection to begin on Dec. 14.

The hearing for his wife, Diana, however, lasted roughly two and a half hours, as Jessica Smolar of the U.S. Attorney's Office in Pittsburgh called a lead FBI special agent and pretrial officer to argue that she should be kept in jail ahead of the trial, while Diana’s defense lawyer, Edward MacMahon, said she wanted to prove her innocence and should be allowed to return to her Maryland home to take care of her two children ahead of the trial.***

FBI special agent Peter Olinits said Diana accompanied her husband on three of his four dead drops, missing one because she’d had ankle surgery. Olinits said that during the first dead drop in June, the duo parked in a visitor’s parking lot more than a mile away before walking to the spot, which he called “indicative” of “espionage tradecraft.” He asserted that the husband and wife “conducted many SDRs [surveillance detection routes] throughout this investigation.” The FBI agent said they were “posing as tourists" and that Diana took pictures as the pair waited until no one else was around. Olinits said that “as the dead drop was serviced by Jonathan, Diana was right behind him ... basically keeping a lookout.” He added: “The drop was completed fairly quickly, which is very good tradecraft."

The FBI said the couple used a similar pattern in other dead drops, driving out together with Jonathan’s phone left behind in their Maryland home, which the bureau agent said was likely a surveillance evasion technique, while Diana’s phone was in airplane mode in the car.*** https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/crime/wife-in-peanut-butter-sandwich-spy-case-fights-for-her-release

Republican Rep. Jeff Fortenberry from Nebraska stepped down from his congressional committee seats on Wednesday, one day after being indicted by a grand jury on charges of illegal campaign contributions and knowingly lying to federal authorities.

In a letter addressed to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi , Fortenberry cited GOP Conference rules which say a member of Congress who has been indicted on felony charges that could put them in prison for more than two years, must abdicate panel assignments.***

A federal grand jury indicted Fortenberry on one count of “scheming to falsify and conceal material facts” and two counts of “making false statements to federal investigators looking into illegal contributions" by Lebanese-Nigerian billionaire Gilbert Chagoury to his campaign during the 2016 cycle, according to the Justice Department .

Fortenberry denies any wrongdoing.*** https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/house/republican-jeff-fortenberry-gives-up-house-committee-assignments-after-indictment

What's the limitation of actions in Pennsylvania?

WASHINGTON (TND) — The current Chairman of Nike's Jordan brand and former team president of the Portland Trail Blazers, Larry Miller, recently admitted to Sports Illustrated that he shot and killed a teenager in West Philadelphia, Penn. when he was just 16-years-old.

In a recent 90-minute interview, Miller, 72, told Sports Illustrated that in September 1965, he fired a .38-caliber shot into the chest of 18-year-old Edward White. He blamed his gang affiliation and drinking the night of the murder for his actions.

Miller said this happened after "downing a bottle of wine" with his friends before they went out and searched for anyone affiliated with a rival gang.*** https://abcnews4.com/news/nation-world/nike-executive-larry-miller-admits-he-murdered-teenager-in-1965
