The DOJ on Wednesday identified the men as 74-year-old Antonio Bonheur, of Mattapan, and 21-year-old Saul Alisme, of Hyde Park.

Amazon is expressing anger and regret after a man delivering packages for the company was caught on home security video stealing a family’s cat in a Los Angeles suburb. The theft happened Dec. 11 in Lakewood. Diane Huff-Medina shared video with KTLA showing the Amazon Flex worker – an independent contractor – first dropping off a package at her front door and taking a photo to confirm delivery. Piper, a Siamese mix, approaches the man, who crouches down to pet her. Moments later, the delivery driver picks up the cat by the scruff of her neck, carries her to his vehicle and drives away. Huff-Medina said Piper has lived with her and her three sons for six years. The cat, who is microchipped, was not wearing a collar at the time, she said. more at https://ktla.com/news/california/a-horrible-act-amazon-bans-driver-accused-of-stealing-california-family-cat/

A Kentucky woman is behind bars after allegedly pepper-spraying a DoorDash customer’s food — later telling authorities she had been aiming the substance at a spider. Kourtney N. Stevenson was arrested Friday by the McCracken County Sheriff’s Office after a doorbell camera appeared to capture her spraying something on a customer's order during a delivery, an incident that left a married couple sick and quickly went viral online. Stevenson is now facing multiple felony charges, including battery resulting in moderate injury and consumer product tampering, according to a news release from the Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Office. "Residents should be able to trust that the food they order for their families is safe," Sheriff Noah Robinson said in a statement. "When someone violates that trust and endangers others, we will respond with urgency, and we will pursue charges." more at https://www.foxnews.com/us/doordash-driver-charged-felony-food-tampering-after-alleged-pepper-spray-incident-goes-viral

KLAHOMA CITY — Reverend T. Sheri Amore Dickerson, a well-known activist in Oklahoma City, has been charged federally with wire fraud and money laundering, accused of embezzling funds meant for Black Lives Matter Oklahoma City, according to an indictment released on Thursday. The U.S. Department of Justice claims Dickerson deposited more than $3 million in returned bail checks into her personal account from Black Lives Matter Oklahoma City's account from June 2020 to at least October of this year. Some notable expenses the funds covered include recreational travel to Jamaica and the Dominican Republic for herself and associates, at least $50,000 in food and grocery deliveries for herself and her kids, tens of thousands of dollars spent in retail shopping, a personal vehicle registered in her name, and six properties in her name or in the name of Equity International, LLC — an entity only she has control over. Although, according to the indictment, she claims the church property she purchased back in 2021 was intended to be used as a BLM OKC community center, the property was placed in her own name. more at https://www.koco.com/article/t-sheri-amore-dickerson-charged-embezzling-funds-black-lives-matter-okc/69702571

The mother of murdered Florida teenager Danika Troy says her 14-year-old daughter was lured into the woods by one of the boys now charged with killing her, a teen she believed had romantic feelings for her. In an interview with the New York Post, Ashley Troy said 16-year-old Gabriel Williams "pretended to have feelings for her," leading Danika to trust him enough to follow him into the wooded trail where she was ambushed. "That’s how she was lured," she said. Williams and 14-year-old Kimahri Blevins have both been charged with first-degree premeditated murder in Danika’s death. more at https://www.foxnews.com/us/florida-mom-says-teens-lured-14-year-old-daughter-into-woods-before-shooting-setting-her-fire-report

Zohran Mamdani taps ex-con rapper who served 7 years for armed robbery as criminal justice adviser on transition team: ‘Insane’ Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani has picked a controversial rapper who did seven years in state prison for armed robbery to advise him on the criminal justice system, The Post has learned. Mysonne Linen, 49, a Bronx convict-turned-activist who was found guilty of two felony heists in the late 1990s, was appointed by the democratic socialist to sit on his mayoral transition’s “criminal legal system” committee — just one of many questionable picks. “This is a testament to our decades of work advocating on behalf of black and brown communities and our expertise in gun violence prevention, legislative advocacy and criminal justice reform,” Linen boasted on Instagram last month after the position was announced. “We are building something different.” more at https://nypost.com/2025/12/08/us-news/zohran-mamdani-taps-ex-con-rapper-to-serve-as-criminal-justice-adviser-on-mayoral-transition-team/
