ONGOING CRIME BREAKING NEWS!

Starting in January 2020, this thread is about the news as it breaks!

Bernard Madoff says he is dying and is asking a judge for compassionate release from prison, where he is serving 150 years for orchestrating the largest Ponzi scheme in history, according to a Wednesday federal court filing.

Madoff, 81, has terminal kidney failure and a life expectancy of less than 18 months. When the court sentenced him, “it was clear that Madoff’s 150-year prison sentence was symbolic for three reasons: retribution, deterrence, and for the victims,” the court filing states. “This Court must now consider whether keeping Madoff incarcerated … is truly in furtherance of statutory sentencing goals and our society’s value and understanding of compassion.”

Madoff said in the request for compassionate release that he “does not dispute the severity of his crimes.”

Have you heard any updates? I just did a quick google search and see nothing. I just figured four kids would be pretty easy to spot and found pretty quickly but don't see that they have yet...

I just looked. No.

It's under Minnesota news.

Shorts in MN in November. Walking. A bit cold for sure.

Hoping they are found quickly and safely.

Took off walking so at least no sign of abduction and it would be tough for someone to snatch four children that age without a problem. Unless it is something custodial of course.

They didn't say it was a custody incident. And the article says they left on foot. I agree it's hard to abduct 4 kids. I think they are somewhere familiar. But there are pieces missing I think.

saw most of the 20/20 (?) interview last night. I am sure it will be rerun eventually

they've gotten shafted by the very agencies that were set up to protect them, mostly the older ones. There were funds set up to help them, but they are having issues being able to access them for things they really, really need and just expected the adult ones to figure out life on their own.

They sometimes don't say it's custody but I guess I'm just thinking four kids are pretty noticeable, they were walking and they maybe walked somewhere of course and thinking maybe friends, a grandparent, an uncle's house (destination?) and that person might not even know they are missing... Best case scenario of course... That they are inside and with someone...

Where is St. Anthony as to part of the Cities and what kind of area is it?

My brother alerted me to that last night before it came on. I didn't watch though. I don't have the stomach or brain to handle that type of thing right now.

Sure. No problem. After being raised like that. Leading a normal life has to actually be taught to them. The agency's know that. The older they are the harder it is. Agency's know that too. Anyone who can turn their backs on them and people like them I can't understand. Especially when it's your job. Then you need to be fired and sued for negligence and be taught yourself on humanity.

Too intoxicated to do a field sobriety test safely?! Wow! Thankful someone called 911.

This case and our AG really pizzes me off. Our AG was fighting to keep him in jail when even the prosecutor says he was innocent.

I can see why they had to though. They can't keep the variety of things if their suppliers keep raising the prices and it wouldn't make any money if they only had a few items so then there would be NO DT's around.
