This piece was prepared by Michelle L. McKee and Alexandria Goddard in support of a request for the public’s assistance in seeking justice for the death of Jacob Limberios. This request for assistance was made by the Limberios family by and through their attorney Dan McGookey:

Steubenville City Manager Cathy Davidson is out of a job soon it seems. She was asked for her resignation, yet nothing official has come about as of the time of writing this days after the story broke.

by Phil Polizatto, WWH/CJE  - The Water Department came by the other day to install a small metering device under the lip of my toilet bowl. When I asked the reason, he said it would provide useful data concerning the amount of water I use, but I was suspicious. He tried to allay my concern by saying it would be useful not only to the Water Department, but to me as well. I might conserve more water after learning how much I really use and thereby have the incentive to flush less. He also warned me that if I tampered with it, it would set off an alarm at the Department’s headquarters, and they would immediately come out to see what was wrong. So not to worry. It was for my own good.

Update on the story I had on Isaak Wolfe, a transgrendered student who tried running for prom king and was not allowed via Red Lion High School principal Mark Shue.

In a email I received from the ACLU this morning, I was notified that Red Lion HIgh School and principal Mark Shue will not be allowing Issak to be named prom king, nor will address him by his new name at graduation. The following is a press release from the ACLU:


 

RED LION, Pa. – The Red Lion Area School District (RLASD) has refused to change its policy around transgender candidates for prom court, nor will it agree to allow transgender students to use a name at graduation to match their gender identity, according to a letter from the school district’s solicitor. RLASD’s treatment of its transgender students became an issue last month after a male transgender student, Issak Wolfe, was denied the chance to run for prom king when his principal placed his female birth name in the column for “Prom Queen” despite repeated requests to be listed in accordance with his gender identity.

The Steubenville Grand Jury finally began meeting on Tuesday at the Jefferson County 911 Call Center to begin investigating whether other individuals broke additional laws going back to August in the rape of 16 year old Jane Doe by Trent Mays and Ma'lik Richmond.

Ohio Attorney General Mike Dewine has promised to bring closure to this case and to attempt to answer all the unanswered questions lingering from this case. Search Warrants were executed on school facilities last week in which documents, and computer hard drives were seized.

The most frustrating thing about this grand jury process for media and the public is that the proceedings are held in secret, are now expected to last weeks not the initial 10 days we were told, and a press conference will be held immediately following the grand jury's recoomendations to either file additional charges or that no new action be taken.

We'll keep you updated as best we can here at Mobile Broadcast News.

UPDATE: the Grand Jury  has broke until May 23rd so that Ohio BCI can analyze more evidence and interview more witnesses.

More than 250 protesters challenge drones, war and empire at Hancock Field Air Base
31 protesters arrested for blocking base entrance and other civil resistance

The protest started in front of the Thompson Road entrance to the base. After speeches, music and poetry, the protesters marched down East Molloy Road in a dramatic funeral procession to the base's main entrance, where several were arrested for laying down and blocking the main entrance to the base. Others were arrested for various acts of civil resistance. Sunday's rally was part of the three-day weekend event Resisting Drones, Global War and Empire: A Convergence to Action.

9-year-old killed by intruder update: ‘Huge manhunt’ underway (Video)

WS – Welcome to the new “Door to door.” search for every crime in America. White collar crimes excluded.

A 9-year-old killed by an intruder has caused a “huge manhunt” in northern Calif. On April 28, Christian Post reported that residents in the are on edge as police search for a suspect who is believed to be “armed and dangerous.” The little girl was stabbed several times when the intruder entered the home where she was left with her 12-year-old brother while her parents were out.

“We’re doing a house to house search and in some cases we’re searching extensively into attics and storage sheds. It’s a difficult area to search. It’s rural, it’s remote,” said a spokesperson for the Calaveras County Sheriff’s office.

The 9-year-old killed by the intruder was pronounced dead at a local hospital. The suspect — who is described as “a six-foot white or Latino man with long grey hair wearing blue pants and a black long-sleeve shirt” — may have done this randomly as the 12-year-old boy saw him and said he didn’t recognize him. More…

Fukushima’s Catastrophic Aftermath Continues

WS – The invisible killer. I’m talking media and US government blackout of this in the name of global corporatism.

In her book titled “No Immediate Danger: Prognosis for a Radioactive Earth,” nuclear power/environmental health expert Rosalie Bertell (1929 – 2012) said:

“Should the public discover the true health cost(s) of nuclear pollution, a cry would rise from all parts of the world and people would refuse to cooperate passively with their own death.”

In her article titled “Radioactivity: No Immediate Danger,” she coined a new word. “Omnicide” describes the ultimate human rejection of life. It’s “difficult to comprehend,” but it’s happening, she said.

She called industrial radioactive pollution “cumulatively greater than Chernobyl. We are now in a no-win situation with radioactive materials, where (it’s) acceptable to have cancer deaths, deformed children and miscarriages.”

Industry propaganda falsely claims nuclear power is clean and green. The nuclear fuel cycle discharges significant amounts of greenhouse gases.

It’s also responsible for hundreds of thousands of curies of deadly radioactive gases and elements in the environment annually.

“Claiming nuclear production of energy is ‘clean,’ ” said Bertell, “is like dieting but stuffing yourself with food between meals.”

Separately, she said:

“There is no such thing as a radiation exposure that will not do damage. There is a hundred per cent possibility that there will be damage to cells. The next question is: which damage do you care about?”

With 5 days before a grand jury hears evidence against 16 individuals for failing to cooperate in the Jane Doe rape case investigation (among other possible charges). Search Warrants were executed at the Steubenville Board of Education Offices, The Steubenville High School, Vestige limited in Medina County and other locations in connection with  Ohio Attorney general Mike Dewine's ongoing investigation in the Jane Doe Rape Case. 

Coach Reno was at the Harding Stadium House when Ohio BCI Agents arrived to also serv search warrants. Steubenville police were also on scene.

What Ohio BCI agents and Steubenville Police officers were searching for remain a mystery as the scope of the warrants remain sealed by a court order.

Sources on the ground in Steubenville tell me that more warrants and locations may be searched within the next few days.

The Grand jury begins hearing evidence on April 30th, and the process should last 10 days.

Calls for comments to the Ohio Attorney Generals Office, and Steubenville high School have not been returned. 

By Sherry Pasquarello,CJE – Well, today’s the day. Five Presidents will gather to open the library of George W. Bush. I have always thought that having an entire building for one man’s presidential papers a bit arrogant but that’s just me. The fact that THIS man gets a building to rewrite his time in office, complete with all the newest interactive technology and bells and whistles upsets me.

Oh, the comedians are having a great time with Bush having a library. I admit I laughed at the vision of dozens of empty shelves and one copy of, “MY PET GOAT” sitting there but it was a bitter laugh.

The Bush apologist trolls have been hitting talk radio and right wing television for a week at least and popping up all over social media. A poll taken the other day even has Bush’s approval rating up a few from when he left office.

Really? Do we as a nation suffer from that short of a memory or do we really not CARE that he cost us so much “ blood and treasure” as the pundits have labeled death and disablement and bankrupting?

It's a question on many minds in the Weirton, West Virgina and Ohio Valley Areas. The case is 2 years old  with one man being charged, and eventually all charges being dismissed. A grand Jury was convened in January to see if any other individuals would be charged, or if new charges would be filed against the original suspect. The grand jury found no reason to file additional charges, or charge anyone else.

The case has come back into the public's eyes lately with facebook pages titled Justice for Khylii and Khylii's Justice. An online petition has been set up to reopen the case, refile charges and bring justice for  Khylii Keffer who sustained heavy trauma to her stomach on February 27, 2011.

According to Paramedic dispatch reports and records,  on February 17. 2011 Paramedics arrived on scene at Khylii's home at 5:57 Pm for a 3 year old that was lethargic, and turning blue.  They were met on the front steps by Amber Coen (Khylii's mom) who was carrying Khylii outside.

Richie Havens, Folk Icon, Dead at 72

WS – Sad day Indeed!

Brooklyn native opened Woodstock in 1969
Richie Havens, who brought an earthy soulfulness to the folk scene of the Sixties and was the first act to hit the stage at Woodstock, died of a heart attack on Monday, April 22. He was 72 and was living in Jersey City, New Jersey. Last month, Havens announced he would no longer be touring due to health issues.

From the beginning, when he played Village folk clubs in the mid-Sixties, Havens stood out due to more than just his imposing height (he was six-and-a-half feet tall) and his ethnicity (African-American in a largely white folk scene). He played his acoustic guitar with an open tuning and in a fervent, rhythmic style, and he sang in a sonorous, gravel-road voice that connected folk, blues and gospel.

As if the process of growing up and going to high school isn't hard enough. Our youth today face struggles of being accepted in social circles, the occassional school shootings, bullying and harrasment as well as trying to get a decent education.

Imagine the struggle of transgendered student Issak Wolfe. Issak who received massive support from other students and faculty for his transition being fully acknowledged by his new name, decided to run for prom king of Red Lion High School.  (Red Lion Highschool is located in Pennsylvania) Many students pledged their support to vote for Issak this year, and his name was added to the ballot. He pretty much had it won based on speaking with other students.

On the day of voting, Issak went to place a vote for himself as prom king. He was shocked, embarrassed, and humiliated to discover that he was removed from the ballot as prom king.

Issak went to principal's office to find out why he was removed from the ballot and was told he was unable to meet with Principal Shue (head principal of Red Lion High School.)

Eventually Issak learned that the reason he was removed from the ballot for prom king was that head principal Mark Shue wasuncomfortable with the boy running for prom king being transgendered.

Calls to Red Lion high school, Principal Mark Shue, and Superindent Dr.Dailey (This reporter has left 2 voicemails for each) Emails to Mr. Shue have been bounced back as undeliverable using the emails listed from the School's website.

Israel Injecting Dangerous Viruses Into Palestinian Prisoners

WS – Is there any Nazi atrocities that Israel will not commit?

A Palestinian released from Israeli jails, Rania Saqa, has brought to light that the Israeli regime injected detainees that are out of prisons with dangerous viruses.

Noting that Palestinian prisoners suffer from serious and chronic diseases such as bladder cancer and liver disorders, Rania has revealed that the Tel Aviv regime injects prisoners with dangerous viruses before releasing them.

The released prisoner has asked the many institutions and the international community to examine them carefully.

Recently, the International Solidarity for Human Rights Institute warned that the Israeli regime uses and abuses Palestinian prisoners to test their new drugs, and this contradicts international medical and moral principles. More…

Witness Gives Details of His Role in BP Oil Spill Cover-up

WS - Malcolm Coco is an honest man… How the fuck did the Judge allow him  to testify?

By Joe McEvoy, Editor WWH/CJE – Cy Vance, the Manhattan DA ,through his office announced that he will not prosecute the NYPD officer who pepper sprayed Occupy Wall Street protesters without provocation.

Inspector Tony Bologna, did receive a slap on the wrist though. He  was disciplined by the NYPD for violently assaulting with pepper spray, two women who were held behind mesh police netting during a OWS demonstration in 2011.  The department docked him 10 vacation days and reassigned him to Staten Island, to abuse others out of site of video cameras, no doubt.

Violent criminals like Inspector Tony Bologna, are not loose cannons, bad apples in an orchard of fine fruit or a minority in law enforcement here in the good ole” USA. Violent criminals like Inspector Tony ‘ the woman beater’ Bologna and Inspector Johnny Cardona, (Johnny ‘the punk’ Cardona sucker-punched a protester without provocation in full view of the press during an Occupy Wall Street march in October 2011.) are the enforcers for the corrupt politicians, bankers, rich, and connected in this country.

One of the objectives of the false flag Boston Marathon bombing terror attack, was to create fear, confusion, anger, and hatred, in the subconscious minds of the masses, the millions of people who absorb and accept the "New Normal", whenever the people in power implement a tactic or agenda (Problem).

A pair of dreadlock-sporting vagrants in Berkeley attacked noted KRON 4 reporter (and SFist favorite) Stanley Roberts this week while he was doing a segment outside Amoeba Music on Telegraph Avenue.
The journalist, best know for his “People Behaving Badly” news segments, was preparing a report on problematic panhandlers. He soon found himself on the receiving end of some bad behavior by said mendicants. More…

By Sherry Pasquarello,CJE - I am so angry I have no way to really express the depths of it. I was going to list the names and the office phone numbers of the selfish, greedy cowards that voted down the background checks but then I thought, “anyone that is too frigging lazy to not already know who voted for or against this isn’t worth my time to print it up for them!”

As for those worthless members that voted it down, including the Democrats. SHAME on you all! If there was ever a reason for TERM LIMITS you spineless people are it. More worried about keeping your cushy jobs than protecting the people that you are supposed to serve. The next tragedy, and there sadly, will be one, you had better hide your heads in shame and don’t even consider making a statement to the media expressing how deeply you are affected. Hypocritical slugs!

And then, there is the FUCKING MEDIA WHORES- FOX news, gloating all the while knowing that their lies and spin helped create the culture we find ourselves in. Oh and a big” EAT S***T AND DROP DEAD” to the little wanna be Limbaugh( I will not name him and give him the publicity) who said the reprehensible things about the parents of those slaughtered kids!
