Fairlawn, OH – While driving more than twice the speed limit in a failed attempt to evade fellow officers, an Ohio cop was caught on police dash cam and body cam videos leading officers in a high-speed chase to capture him. Although his fellow officers immediately released the reckless cop after catching and recognizing him, prosecutors eventually decided to charge the officer over two weeks after the incident.Around 1:44 a.m. on May 7, Fairlawn officers noticed an SUV driving 77 mph in a 35-mph-zone. As the pursuing patrol car turned on its lights and siren, the SUV attempted to flee by turning down several streets before blindly running into a blocked residential driveway.“I ...

Vietnam veteran Roberto Gonzalez's final wish was granted Saturday when he was reunited with his beloved horses -- Ringo and Sugar -- outside of a Texas VA hospital. Gonzalez, of Premont, Texas, who was shot and paralyzed during the war, was wheeled outside the front doors of Audie Murphy Veterans Hospital in San Antonio where he was greeted by the horses he had raised for decades, mySA.com reported. Gonzalez, who was one of the hospital's first patients when it opened in 1974, had asked his family to see his horses one last time. The family passed along the request to hospital staff who gladly obliged. Ringo and Sugar then made the 150-mile trip to the hospital to see him. ...

A wealthy New York man on trial for a fourth time since his wife disappeared in 2001 has been found not guilty of second-degree murder. Calvin Harris was accused of killing his estranged wife, Michele, on Sept. 11, 2001, at their home in the town of Spencer, in central New York State. Harris' two convictions in two prior trials for the crime were reversed by appeals courts. A judge declared a mistrial in a third murder trial in May 2015. "48 Hours" has covered the case since 2006, and the father of four has spoken out to correspondent Erin Moriarty. Harris' fourth trial began in March. The bench trial ended Tuesday, when a Schoharie Supreme Court judge ruled Harris not ...

DENVER — Marijuana users, researchers and investors are eager to hear whether federal officials will remove pot from the same drug classification as heroin, LSD and bath salts. Federal drug officials say they are considering removing marijuana from what’s known as Schedule 1 classification, with a decision expected this summer. The current classification makes it illegal to prescribe and declares that marijuana “has no currently accepted medical treatment use," although 24 states permit some form of medical marijuana use. Reclassifying marijuana would make it easier for researchers to work with the plant, which is currently subject to strict limitations and officially ...

Elijah Wood has been in the entertainment business most of his life. Having started out doing local modeling and commercial work in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, he moved out to Los Angeles with his family as an 8-year-old in the mid-1980s, where he got work on the Paula Abdul music video “Forever Your Girl” and gained acclaim in the ‘90s movie “Avalon.” Though it seems like a glamorous way to be brought up, Wood, now 35, is revealing for the first time that Hollywood is dealing with a child sexual-abuse epidemic. In a revealing piece about the “Lord of the Rings” star for The Sunday Times, Wood is quoted saying child actors are regularly “preyed upon” ...

How corporate America bought Hillary Clinton for $21M By Michael Walsh New York Post May 22, 2016 | 2:38pm [...] So what would Washington and Jefferson make of Hillary Rodham Clinton? Mandatory financial disclosures released this month show that, in just the two years from April 2013 to March 2015, the former first lady, senator and secretary of state collected $21,667,000 in “speaking fees,” not to mention the cool $5 mil she corralled as an advance for her 2014 flop book, “Hard Choices.” Throw in the additional $26,630,000 her ex-president husband hoovered up in personal-appearance “honoraria,” and the nation can breathe a collective sigh of relief ...

Since Deckard f**ked up the format so much where I replied to his story, I will repost this report from The Charlotte Observer showing the way the incident should have been reported telling both sides: On the second day of her dream vacation on exclusive Bald Head Island, Julie Mall went with her family to the beach to catch the sunset. Her 11-year-old son asked to drive the golf cart back to their $1,000-a-day rented cottage.It was dusk, no traffic on the path and his father would sit next to him. A two- block, 30-second ride. She said sure. What could go wrong?In the next four hours, Mall says she was pinned to the ground by police, repeatedly accused of being drunk, frogmarched barefoot ...

BALTIMORE — A police officer was acquitted of all charges on Monday in the arrest of Freddie Gray, a black man who sustained a fatal spinal cord injury while in police custody. The verdict is likely to renew debate over whether anyone will be held responsible for Mr. Gray’s death. The officer, Edward M. Nero, sat with a straight back and stared forward as Circuit Judge Barry G. Williams, who ruled on the case after the officer opted to forgo a jury trial, read his verdict on charges of second-degree assault, misconduct and of reckless endangerment. “The verdict on each count,” said Judge Williams, concluding his reading after about 30 minutes, “is not ...

Justice Department lawyers got a slap they deserved

In a stinging slap at the Justice Department, a federal judge last week ordered practically all the lawyers in its main DC office to take ethics training for five years. At that, they got off lightly: Judge Andrew Hanen said he would have disbarred the lawyers, who had deceived him, if he had the power. Hanen was the judge who heard the request by 26 states to toss out President Obama’s 2014 executive order granting temporarily legal status to millions of immigrants who aren’t actually legal. The case is now before the Supreme Court — which is the only reason Hanen didn’t issue a summary judgment against Obama and the lawyers who lied. Federal rules of civil ...

HILLARY CLINTON is the Democratic nominee. Really. Just ask her. She should have been able to finally savor shattering that “highest, hardest glass ceiling” — the one she gloried in putting 18 million cracks in last time around — when she attends her convention in Philadelphia in July. Instead, she is reduced to stomping her feet on CNN, asserting her dominance in a contest that has left her looking anything but dominant. Once more attempting to shake off the old socialist dude hammering her with a sickle, Clinton insisted to Chris Cuomo on Thursday: “I will be the nominee for my party, Chris. That is already done, in effect. There is no way that I won’t ...

The deadly-but-forgotten government gun-running scandal known as “Fast and Furious” has lain dormant for years, thanks to White House stonewalling and media compliance. But newly uncovered e-mails have reopened the case, exposing the anatomy of a coverup by an administration that promised to be the most transparent in history. “At least 20 other deaths or violent crimes have been linked to Fast and Furious-trafficked guns.” A federal judge has forced the release of more than 20,000 pages of emails and memos previously locked up under President Obama’s phony executive-privilege claim. A preliminary review shows top Obama officials deliberately obstructing ...

Former Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) said he feels a “kinship” with Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders, noting that the two occasionally agree on some policies and oppose favors to the corporate world. “We’re both against corporatism. We’re both against the special benefits to big business,” Paul said in an interview on Politicking with Larry King. “His answer to that wouldn’t always be the same. Mine would always drift to the free markets. His would drift to ‘well we need more government to redistribute wealth,’ but we could both attack subsidies to business or the military industrial complex,” he continued. “In that sense, there is ...

Louisville, Kentucky (CNN)Donald Trump on Friday told the National Rifle Association that Hillary Clinton would take away the right to bear arms -- a position the Democratic front-runner has never taken and immediately denounced. Moments after the gun group endorsed Trump, the presumptive GOP nominee dove right into attacking Clinton, saying she "wants to abolish the Second Amendment." "We're not going to let that happen," Trump said. "We're going to preserve it, we're going to cherish it." Clinton, who swiftly rebutted Trump's remarks, has called for universal background checks and stricter controls on firearms, but has never called for the ...

By Claire Bernish “They’re saying it was a fake weapon and that I need to come get her,” said the unidentified Colorado mother of a five-year-old girl who was suspended after bringing a clear, plastic, princess-themed bubble gun to school because she likes bubbles. “I appreciate that they’re trying to keep our kids safe, I really do. But there needs to be some common sense.” A Brighton, Colorado, School District 27J spokesman refused interview requests, but told an ABC affiliate by email that the kindergartner’s suspension was “consistent with our district policy.” That policy targets fake ‘guns’ which could be reasonably mistaken for ...

Any doctor who performs an abortion in Oklahoma could be charged with a felony and punished with up to three years in prison under a bill that the Legislature passed Thursday. The measure is the first of its kind in the nation, according to abortion rights group Center for Reproductive Rights. The bill also would restrict any physician who performs an abortion from obtaining or renewing a license to practice medicine in Oklahoma. With no discussion or debate, the Senate voted 33-12 Thursday for the bill by Republican Sen. Nathan Dahm. A handful of Republicans joined with Democrats in voting against the bill, which now heads to Gov. Mary Fallin, an anti-abortion Republican. Fallin ...

WASHINGTON, D.C., May 18, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) – The same day last week the Obama Administration threatened the nation’s public schools with the loss of federal funding lest they comply with its rendering of gender theory, the White House dropped an even worse threat on healthcare institutions accepting government dollars. The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) published the final rule for Obamacare’s Section 1557 last Friday, requiring healthcare providers receiving federal funds to perform “gender transition” services and abortions, or face termination of government aid, along with possible referral to the Department of Justice for legal action.

A Garland teenager convicted of killing his girlfriend’s mother and stepfather in 2010 when he was 13 years old is set to go free on parole next month. Police say the 13-year-old daughter of the mother killed put up the boy to it. Both teens agreed to peal bargains on capital murder charges for the shooting deaths of Alan Nevil, 48, and Darlene Nevil, 46. Angry doesn't begin to describe the raw emotion felt by family members outside the courtroom. It was a calculated murder inside the victims' own home where they were ambushed and shot multiple times. But on Wednesday, the judge granted parole for the teen when he turns 19 next month. Family members of Alan and Darlene ...

He adds, "not all pedophiles are child molesters, and not all child molesters are pedophiles." He says his purpose now is to educate people about his "sexuality," which he allegedly does on his website for "virtuous pedophiles." Politically, you ...
