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.”

9 Phoenix police officers wounded, woman hurt, in shooting during incident involving baby girl; Suspect dead​


Nine Arizona police officers were wounded Friday morning – believed to be the highest number of officers shot in one day – while responding to a shooting that led to an hours-long barricaded situation, which ended with the suspect being found dead inside the Phoenix home.​


The incident began around 2:15 a.m. local time, and was resolved at about 7 a.m., police said. Phoenix Police initially responded to a report of a woman shot at a home in the area of 51st Avenue and Elwood Street – and the suspect allegedly invited the officers inside – before he opened fire and struck one of the officers multiple times.

"The suspect ambushed him with a gun and shot him several times," Sgt. Andy Williams told reporters at the scene.


More officers were then targeted shortly thereafter, when a man who was not the suspect placed an infant in a pink-colored carrier outside the home, police said. Police do not immediately believe the baby was brought out in an attempt to lure other officers.

All injured officers suffered non-life threatening injuries, police said. Some officers remained on the scene despite having been injured.

The woman who was reported to have been shot was critically injured, police said. Police believe the baby involved in the incident is their child. The infant, a girl, is safe.
