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.”


IMO- stay in jail

Florida Bride and Caterer Arrested After Allegedly Lacing Guests’ Food with Marijuana

Danya Shea Svoboda
, 42, and Joycelyn Montrinice Bryant, 31, are facing felony drug charges of delivering marijuana and tampering with guests’ food, as well as a misdemeanor culpable negligence charge.

Police documents describe a wedding with about 50 guests that started out as a celebration on Feb. 19 but turned into a nightmare once the guests started eating. After several guests started getting sick, Seminole County deputies were called to the scene. One of the deputies was told that several guests had
“possibly ingested cannabis via the food that was being served at the wedding.”

Is that suppose to be funny?. I would never do that. You can't overdose on marijuana, But there are people who are allergic to it. What morons. They should be charged, Drugging a person unaware.
 

Florida dentist is charged with hiring hitmen to kill his sister's ex-husband as a 'divorce present' to solve her custody dispute: Victim was prominent law professor who was gunned down in his driveway in 2014​


  • Dentist Charles Adelson, 45, was arrested in the 2014 murder of Daniel Markel
  • Prosecutors say he hired hitmen to kill Markel, his sister's ex-husband
  • Newly enhanced audio recordings tie Adelson to the murder, prosecutors say
  • Shooters Sigfredo Garcia and Luis Rivera have already been convicted
  • Adelson's ex-girlfriend Katherine Magbanua faces a retrial next month
  • Alleged motive in the case was custody battle between victim and his ex-wife
  • Adelson's sister Wendi wanted to move but couldn't due to joint custody
  • Wendi said that Adelson joke about killing Markel as a divorce present for her
  • Markel was gunned down in cold blood as he sat in his car on his driveway

 
Casey, Aaron Hernandez and now this. I'm beginning to wonder if he's paying off jurors.

I guess this jury believes that doctors have the right to kill people because of "compassionate care" without consulting families first. @PlainJaneDoe and @SheWhoMustNotBeNamed what do you think of this?
Casey makes my blood boil. Casey Routier, Or Darlie Anthony. I would hate to think juries are being paid off. However I strongly suspect that in the O.J. case. He did it!

I'm cynical. Big surprise right? There is always a way when it comes to those with power, money or the system is corrupt whether on a small scale or large.

A judge even can throw a jury trial on what is allowed to be heard and what isn't. Tons of ways, just one example.

Or if a conviction can give a light sentence or heavy in most cases.

A juror got to as you say. Or paid off. Or threatened.

A witnesss threatened, killed, etc.

I have a lot of faith in an honestly picked jury for an honest pool of jurors; but I don't have faith in who picks them, who decides what they do and do not hear, etc.
