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/

Patricia Martin, former presiding judge of the juvenile court’s child protection division, bilked a decorated WWII vet out of more than $380,000. She pleaded guilty to theft and also was ordered to pay $122,763.73 in restitution. Former Cook County Judge Patricia Martin was sentenced Friday to four years of probation after pleading guilty to stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars from World War II veteran Oscar Wilkerson Jr., who was one of the last surviving Tuskegee Airmen. Martin, who was head of the Cook County juvenile court’s child protection division until her 2020 retirement, appeared before Judge Terry Gallagher and pleaded guilty to one count of theft with a value between $100,000 and $500,000. She was sentenced to four years of probation and ordered to pay $122,763.73 in restitution. Wilkerson, who died in February 2023 at 96, had been the last known surviving member of the Tuskegee Airmen in the Chicago area. In 2007, he was among about 300 surviving members of the trailblazing all-Black aviation unit awarded the Congressional Gold Medal by President George W. Bush. more at https://chicago.suntimes.com/crime/2025/12/05/ex-cook-county-judge-sentenced-to-probation-for-stealing-from-tuskegee-airman

i suspect usc's will be able to retire and live in another country and will be able to draw on SS/other retirement benefits - but they will still need to file us income taxes every year.

in arizona they say it's not the heat, it's the humidity in kansas, we say it's not the cold, it's the wind!

so an old monkey can be taught new tricks....

of course he isn't. he hangs out in the treetops.

so then you'll be a kept man...........

too broke?

if you are outraged now, and were not then - then one might be a victim of media manipulation Drones kill rescuers in 'double tap', say activists https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-24557333

but that does not mean they were not working without authorization before the filing or afterward - which would easily explain their situation. i'm a pessimist - i see a lot in the news but certain things are left out - often important details that would reduce the outrage of the readers.

Charles Shay, a decorated Native American veteran who was a 19-year-old U.S. Army medic when he landed on Omaha Beach on D-Day and helped save lives, died on Wednesday. He was 101. Shay died at his home in Bretteville-L'Orgueilleuse in France's Normandy region, his longtime friend and carer Marie-Pascale Legrand said. Shay, of the Penobscot tribe and from Indian Island in the U.S. state of Maine, was awarded the Silver Star for repeatedly plunging into the sea and carrying critically wounded soldiers to relative safety, saving them from drowning. He also received France's highest award, the Legion of Honor, in 2007. Shay had been living in France since 2018, not far from the shores of Normandy where nearly 160,000 troops from Britain, the U.S., Canada and other nations landed on D-Day on June 6, 1944. The Battle of Normandy hastened Germany's defeat, which came less than a year later. "He passed away peacefully surrounded by his loved ones," Legrand told The Associated Press. more at https://www.cbsnews.com/news/charles-shay-dies-d-day-veteran-saved-lives-dead-age-101/ he was the last living medic from Omaha Beach on D-Day.
