| Michael Madison is a registered sex offender. The 35-year old man is accused of killing three women in the nearby suburb of East Cleveland. The Ohio Bureau of Investigation, Cleveland Police and the FBI are aiding East Cleveland Police in finding more bodies and possible breaks to missing persons cases. |
It's Sunday, and I woke up to find out something going on that deserve some major attention.
What the hell is wrong with Cleveland, Ohio?
Michael Madison was arrested yesterday after East Cleveland Police aided by the Cleveland Police and FBI discovered the bodies of three women. They are in process of searching for others.
This incident will stir the bubble of conservatives and white extremists. These racial extremists already assume that "ALL BLACK MEN ARE CRIMINALS AND SEX CRAZED ANIMALS".
This incident will give conservative agitators another attempt to paint this incident in relation to Trayvon Martin by saying this individual could be one of "OBAMA'S SONS".
Just a few months back, we were watching the developments in the Cleveland kidnapping of Amanda Berry,Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight. Each woman were held captive in the home of Ariel Castro for over 10 years. The woman were rescued and are recovering from their injuries.
About four years ago, we were covering Anthony Sowell, a former military officer and factory worker abducted and killed 11 women. The woman he killed were prostitutes and some runaways. In a span of ten years, the man had hid their bodies in home. So far in the past five years, he's killed 11, and they're probably more.

Now again we send our condolences to those who were killed by this madman. We will get more details as soon as it becomes available.
The Plain Dealer and Associated Press report that three bodies have been found wrapped in plastic bags in a Cleveland suburb and police will continue a search for possibly more victims Sunday, East Cleveland Mayor Gary Norton said.
The bodies were found about 100 to 200 yards apart and a 35-year-old man was arrested and is a suspect in all three deaths, although he has not yet been charged, Norton said late Saturday.
The suspect is a registered sex offender and has served prison time, the mayor said. In police interviews, the man led them to believe he might have been influenced by convicted serial killer Anthony Sowell, Norton said in an interview with The Associated Press.

"He said some things that led us to believe that in some way, shape, or form, Sowell might be an influence," the mayor said.
Sowell was found guilty in 2011 of killing 11 women and hiding their remains around his Cleveland home. He was sentenced to death and is in an Ohio prison.
Asked if the suspect has a fascination with the Sowell case, the mayor said: "We believe so."
Police Commander Mike Cardilli said a woman's body was found Friday in a garage and two other bodies were found Saturday -- one in a backyard and the other in the basement of a vacant house.
All three people are believed to have been killed in the last six to 10 days.
Police did not know the gender of the two bodies found Saturday and did not know the identities of any of the three victims. They were sent to the coroner's office.
Norton said the bodies were each in the fetal position, wrapped in several layers of trash bags. He said detectives continue to interview the suspect, who used his mother's address in Cleveland, the mayor said, in registering as a sex offender.
Cardilli said the man was arrested after a standoff with police Friday. Police did not immediately release the suspect's name. He was jailed in East Cleveland, the mayor said.
"The person in custody, some of the things he said to investigators made us go back today," the mayor said.
Police searched vacant houses over about three blocks in the neighborhood Saturday and planned to expand their search Sunday, Norton said.
The Plain Dealer reported that police, the FBI, the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation and the Cuyahoga County Sheriff's Department went through yards and abandoned houses and used dogs trained to find cadavers.
The neighborhood in East Cleveland, of some 17,000 residents, has many abandoned houses and authorities want to be thorough, the mayor said.
"Hopefully, we pray to God, this is it," he said.
Congresswoman Marcia Fudge (D-Ohio) represents that area. Hopefully on GOP Sundays, she will tell David Gregory about the issues in Black America.
I mean honestly, this event takes Black men down two notches in a week of politically charged rhetoric about racial profiling.
The controversy continues on in Black America. We handled the Cleveland kidnapping and Anthony Sowell.
We will cover this controversy as well.
