Woman accused of driving her vehicle through a parade crowd killing four and injuring dozens.
Tragedy in Stillwater, Oklahoma. There was a woman today being held on a murder charge. She was behind the wheel of a car when she allegedly plowed into people watching a parade for the Oklahoma State Cowboys football homecoming.
The BIG 12 Cowboys are ranked 14 in the National College Football Standings.
This 25 year old woman may face LIFE in the iron college if they determined that her actions resulted in murder.
The suspect Adacia Chambers is held in the lockup.
Plowed through.
Chambers drove her car through a crowd killing four and injuring 22 people. Of the living, eight of them have life-threatening injuries. Some have walking wounds.
The witness say that she was plowing through the crowd at speeds totally 50 mph.

After exiting her vehicle, Chambers was arrested for driving under the influence. Police have stated that it will be “several days” before the full facts of the incident will be released. She was booked and is currently at Payne County Lockup.
At the scene, multiple choppers were used to airlift victims to Stillwater Medical Center. Multiple law enforcement agencies are involved in the recovery process. The accident occurred at the corner of Hall of Fame and Main Street, a very populated area just two blocks from the football stadium.
World News Today send our condolences to those lost today in this senseless tragedy.
The devil told me to kill and I complied. This murderer is in lockup on capital murder. Two of his buddies are in lockup as well. Now will the concern trolls blame President Barack Obama and Black Lives Matter for a heartless murder?
In Lehigh Valley, a trio of men were arrested in a series of spree killings. One of the killers claims he was motivated by the devil. This story happened over the summer but finally managed to get attention. Conservatives are upset that the junk food media cared only about the White terrorist who murdered nine innocent church goers. They're pissed that three Black terrorists managed to kill seven innocent victims in two states and it barely gets junk food media coverage.
An Elizabeth, NJ man is in the lockup for murder. He claims that the "voices" in his head told him to just kill and he followed through.
His accomplices are also held in lockup for allowing him to carry out the attacks.
Allentown police detective John Brixius tells Lehigh Valley Live that the suspect Todd West heard "The voice was telling him, 'Just eat, eat, stop being so picky,'"
When West was asked if police had the getaway car used in his crime wave, West told them he knew police had the car, "because he told him, referring to the devil," Brixius said.
The detective's account is one of an estimated 15 witnesses who are expected at a preliminary hearing, which started Tuesday afternoon and is continuing into the evening.
West, 23, of Elizabeth, New Jersey, is charged with seven killings in all -- three in the Lehigh Valley and four before that in New Jersey. Authorities have agreed to try him in the Pennsylvania cases first.
Kareem Mitchell, the accused driver during the Lehigh Valley rampage, told investigators he was giving co-defendant Robert Jourdain a ride with his 2-year-old son to Easton, and West, whom he had never met before, came with them.
Mitchell said West displayed a gun as the SUV traveled from New Jersey into Pennsylvania.
After dropping off Jourdain's son with the boy's mother in Easton, the trio went to Allentown, where West got a haircut the night of July 4, Brixius said.
The three then went to an after-hours club -- they weren't sure where -- and then drove to the Wal-Mart at Northampton Crossings in Lower Nazareth Township in the early morning of July 5, where Jourdain bought bullets, Brixius testified.
West said the trio were driving in Easton, when he saw a man who looked tired walking along Lehigh Street; the man was Kory Ketrow.
West told investigators he was going to "help" Ketrow, then West got out of the SUV, said "See ya later" and fired a Smith and Wesson .38-caliber pistol "until it was empty" -- a total of six rounds, Brixius said.
Asked if West knew the victim, West identified him as, "Just a guy in Easton," Brixius said.
These terrorists committed heartless murders in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
West then described traveling to Allentown and shooting Francine E. Ramos and Trevor D. Gray, both of Allentown, in a burgundy Honda a little before 4 a.m. near North Sixth and Greenleaf streets, Brixius testified.
West saw Ramos stiffen as he opened fire and knew she was dead, but told police that Gray tried to duck behind a car, "but he believed he got him," Brixius said.
The killings in the two cities happened about 45 minutes apart.
When investigators asked West about opening fire on a couple in Easton after Ketrow's killing but before going to Allentown, West "couldn't believe he forgot," Brixius said, and described the demands from the voice he was hearing.
Helene Barone didn't forget. The Palmer Township woman was driving the car that police say West shot.
Barone testified she was at a traffic light at Third and Spring Garden streets about 3:20 a.m. July 5 when she looked in her rear-view mirror. She saw an SUV stopped about 20 feet behind her car with its lights off.
Barone said she saw a man get out of the rear passenger seat and raise his arm. That's when she said she saw a gun.
"I said, 'Oh my God they're going to shoot us!'" Barone testified. She hit the gas as she heard three shots, she said.
"I was out of there," she said.
Murder of seven innocent people by this terrorist.
Barone drove through two red lights, got on Route 22 West and got off at the 25th Street exit to go to the Palmer Township Police Department, she said.
Barone said she noticed a tire was losing air. The next day when the tire was taken off the car, someone shook the tire and could hear something inside. When Barone took the car to a tire shop on July 6, a bullet was found in the tire well, she said.
Here's a quick poll!
Now that the Lehigh Valley spree shooters are caught, who actually gets the blame for this heartless act of violence?
So if you picked the shooters, then you're correct. If you pick other entities other than the shooters, then you're part of the problem.
For you see another mass shooting occurred in America. The conservative Craigslist splashes this and the concern trolls are full swing into blaming President Barack Obama over the shooters.
When he address gun control, the concern trolls are tone deaf. They accuse the president of shielding Black criminals over White victims. Despite all the talk from the president, the conservatives will always find some reason to jump to conclusions and blame.
Gun crime is the number one threat in the United States. It beats terrorism and Ebola.
We can pass legislation to stop terrorism. We can pass legislation to control Ebola. But we can't pass a sensible background check law because of Congress being so fucking inept.
The NRA has a hold over the Congress. Republicans hide their ignorance behind the Constitution.
How long will it take before something gets done.
104 people die a day from gun violence. If you multiple it by 7 it's 728 people a week.
If you put it in 52 weeks 37,856 people die a year by gun violence.

Corey Jones was a gifted drummer. On a late night, his vehicle broke down. He waited for a tow truck. He would never make it home. According to the law, he had an altercation with a plain clothes officer. The officer shot him six times.
If it wasn't for DeRay McKesson, Bree Newsome and Shaun White, you wouldn't hear about the story of a Florida man who was gunned down by an undercover police officer.
This undercover police officer would put slugs in the man. His superiors confirmed that the undercover police officer in an unmarked vehicle didn't flash a badge. But they also said that the victim pointed a gun at the officer.
The victim had no criminal record. He had a conceal carry permit. He carried the permit in case he may have been robbed of his properties. A legal Second Amendment right to carry a firearm in his vehicle without prosecution. The prosecution for have legal right to carry, death.
His name was Corey Jones. A 31 year old, brother, grandson, nephew, musician and child of God.
Corey was a popular church drummer who a concealed carry permit holder. In Florida, you have a legal right to have a firearm with a permit.
The Jones family disputes that Corey would have pulled his gun on an officer, had he known it was an officer. "I raised my children … to respect law," said Clinton Jones, Sr. a reverend.
Jones "would not ever, ever, ever" pull a gun on a police officer, according to Clinton Jones Jr., who called his brother "the happiest person ever."
All we can go by according to the law, the officer fired for his safety. The officer thought he saw a threat when he exited his unmarked cruiser.
Now the Florida state attorney and the U.S. Department of Justice are involved in this.
The family of the victim hired Benjamin Crump. The high profile attorney involved in Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown has gotten involved in this.
The officer who shot Corey is in the freezer.
"Are people going to come and support Corey's right to have his gun and protect himself?" Crump asked.
A crowd of several hundred on Thursday converged outside the Palm Beach Gardens Police Department to present a "rally for answers." While there was frustration about the Jones shooting, the crowd largely kept positive with a mix of numerous church verses recited and songs.
Corey was broken down on Interstate 95 exit ramp near PGA Boulevard in Palm Beach Gardens. It was a dark night and Corey was concerned about his safety. He had just got off the phone with his brother.
During a period between 2:45 and 3:30 am, the undercover officer approached his vehicle.
The undercover officer who wore jeans, a t-shirt, and a baseball cap. The officer Palm Beach Gardens Police Officer Nouman Raja approached Corey.
There was no dash camera or flashing lights.
Corey Jones's family speaks out. They demand answers to why he was killed by a plain clothes officer.
There was an altercation and six shots. Corey was killed on sight. Now the officer is in the freezer pending a grand jury decision on whether to indict him. Raja hired a lawyer and also got his police union backing him up. The union will try to defend the actions of Raja.
If this become a national story, guess what happens! The junk food media will cover it and then the partisan agitators will debate it. Then we will have concern trolls try to justify the officer's call.
And here we go again, the conservative agitators and concern trolls blame President Barack Obama and Black Lives Matter for Black on _______ crime.
While with Ferguson and Baltimore erupted in violence in reaction to Michael Brown and Freddie Gray, the family stated that they want peace. The family is clearly upset over this. They understand that people are upset over this. They don't want people to use this a rally call for racially motivated violence.
His brother Clinton Jones Jr. on Thursday sought to temper any racial implications in the shooting, saying he and his brother "don't see color."
"All lives matter," Jones Jr. said, adding that he meant "no disrespect" to the Black Lives Matter movement. "This is not a black thing."
His grandfather Rev. Sylvester Banks Sr., Jones' grandfather and a pastor at Bible Church of God in Boynton Beach. He offered the most prolific speech of the day.
Cory had no criminal history.
He told the crowd that he taught Jones to obey and respect the law as one of his 14 children. If the officer was found to have used excessive force, he urged police to disclose that information. "If you try and hide a corrupt person, you become corrupt," he said.
His message to police locally and internationally was to rid themselves of "bad apples."
Something tells me that Corey and his family were Black Republicans. Where's the outrage from the likes of that annoying conservative agitator?
Did you know we had a handful of gun crimes in the United States this week. Some managed to get national attention. Others were reported on the local news. The most notable was the death of a little girl. She was shot by a deranged driver in a road rage incident in Albuquerque.
Also we had a members of law enforcement shot this week. Three.
One officer in New York City.
One officer in Albuquerque.
One officer in rural Arkansas.
This week President Barack Obama was asked about Black Lives Matter. He said that the meaning of Black Lives Matter isn't solely focused on Black lives. He told a group of people at the Marshall Forum that the activists have legitimate concerns.
The Black Lives Matter activists have always said that "ALL LIVES MATTER." Their message is basically bring attention to racial disparities between Blacks and the law.
President Barack Obama dismissed the chatter from the likes of that asshole Wisconsin Sheriff David Clarke.
"So let me just suggest this: I think everybody understands all lives matter. Everybody wants strong, effective law enforcement. Everybody wants their kids to be safe when they're walking to school. Nobody wants to see police officers who are doing their job fairly hurt. Everybody understand it's a dangerous job," said the president.
"I think the that reason that the organizers used the phrase "black lives matter" was not because they were suggesting nobody else's life matters. Rather, what they were suggesting was there is a specific problem that is happening in the African-American community that's not happening in other communities. And that is a legitimate issue that we've got to address." he added.
World News Today send our condolences to the family of Corey Jones, Albuquerque officer Daniel Webster, NYPD officer Randolph Holder, and Illiana "Lilly" Rose Garcia. We also send our condolences to the nameless victims of gun violence.
The former Rhode Island governor is expected to drop out of the race today. I guess even appearing on that annoying conservative agitator's right wing carnival couldn't move the needle.
Lincoln Chafee just announced will drop out at the Democratic Women's Forum.
"We have a winning message of building a strong middle class, investing in education and infrastructure, extending health coverage to more and more Americans, granting a path to citizenship to those who have lived in the shadows for too long, accepting the science of climate change and having the leadership to cut back on our fossil fuel consumption with sound policy, We defend our civil liberties and women’s reproductive freedoms, respect the rights of our LGBT friends, understand that black lives matter and that we need to do more for Native Americans. And you can be sure that Democrats will make good appointments to the Supreme Court, something this country needs and deserves," said Chafee.
"As you know I have been campaigning on a platform of Prosperity Through Peace. But after much thought I have decided to end my campaign for president today," he added.
The junk food media picked up on a social media response. The "hints" were dropped as soon as he posted.
I look forward to speaking at DNC Women's Forum tomorrow morning. I'll address my future in the campaign there. #chafee2016
The one term governor was struggling with raising campaign funds and name recognition. He couldn't muster enough support from his own state.
Chafee was a former Republican senator who was defeated in 2006 by Sheldon Whitehouse. He became one of the many Republicans who endorsed Barack Obama for president.
Chafee left the Republican Party in 2009. He ran as an independent in 2010 to become Rhode Island's governor. During his term he was a reckless governor. His state went into 9.3% in unemployment under his watch. He also got a lot of ethics problems.
Nonetheless he thought he could motivate the independents and Democrats who weren't satisfied with Hillary Clinton.
Nope, the independent senator from Vermont stole his thunder.
Now it's only four candidates in this race. Martin O'Malley and Larry Lessig are the only lower tiers left in this race. They haven't conceded out the race.
Clinton and Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) are the front runners in this race.
Vice President Joe Biden announced this week he wasn't going to run for president. It gave Clinton a clear path to beating Sanders. Clinton saw a bump. Her Benghazi testimony may have inspired Democrats who sat on the fence.
In the race for the Democratic Nomination as of today.
Hillary Clinton
Bernie Sanders
Martin O'Malley
Larry Lessig
In the race for the Republican Nomination as of today.
Donald Trump
Ben Carson
Marco Rubio
Ted Cruz
Carly Fiorina
Jeb Bush
Chris Christie
Mike Huckabee
John Kasich
Rand Paul
Rick Santorum
Bobby Jindal
George Pataki
Jim Gilmore
Lindsey Graham
Here's the greatest hits or misses of Lincoln Chafee.
Well, I just got home today and now I'm home posting about the 11 hour Congressional Select Committee on Benghazi.
From 10am to 9pm, former secretary of state and 2016 Democratic candidate for president, Hillary Clinton comes to Washington to testify about the situation.
The Republican-sponsored investigation in the September 11th, 2012 tragedy in the seaside Libyan city. The American ambassador Chris Stevens and three men died in an attack on the CIA-sanctioned U.S. Consulate.
Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) is the chair of the committee. He along with a handful of Republicans grilled Hillary Clinton today. Many of the Republicans managed to get a piece of her.
Memorable moments were an exchange between Rep. Martha Roby (R-AL) and Clinton.
Clinton laughed at Roby when a question about Clinton's personal business. Of course, Roby wasn't thrilled that she laughed at her.
Rep. Pet Roskam (R-IL) has a turn.
Rep. Lynn Westmoreland (R-GA) was trying his best.
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) the insurgent leader also got a grill in. "Where'd the false narrative [the YouTube anti-Muslim video] start? It started from you!
In regards to the unrest in the Middle East after the release Innocence of Muslim, a controversial movie trailer being shown in translated language.
While I seriously believe that the Republicans intentionally created this committee in order to stop Hillary Clinton from winning the election, Republicans tell the public that they're not here to hurt her chances. They're there to find out the truth.
Democrats offered the most defense towards Clinton.
Rep. Ellijah Cummings (D-MD) blasted the committee as being a ploy for "gotcha moments".
He and Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) put Gowdy on blast for this $5 million disaster called a investigation.
That network that obsesses over Hillary Clinton's emails was first to cut away from programming.
MSNBC and CNN ran through the hearing with exceptions to committee breaks.
Many see this a game changer for Hillary Clinton. The candidate was struggling throughout the summer and conservatives were hoping that Vice President Joe Biden would jump into the race.,
Many conservatives believe that Clinton may end up in federal time out. This is the wet dream for many conservatives. They believe that Clinton violated federal law. They seriously believe that she would order a stand down when there's an attack on an American embassy. They are trying to paint President Barack Obama as weak on terrorism.
America is ready to move past the Benghazi controversy. Many people don't really give a crap about Clinton's emails or the pinata Sidney Blumenthal.
NYPD mourns the lost of an officer. The conservative agitators will automatically blame President Barack Obama and #BlackLivesMatter.
The New York Police Department is once again facing a tragedy among their ranks. An officer died in East Harlem. He was engaged in a gun fight with a suspect.
Officer Randolph Holder was shot in the head. He died at a local hospital.
The suspect, Tyrone Howard is a notorious dope boy. He was spotted in the area with a stolen bicycle. The suspect robbed a man of his bike. The suspect was spotted by officers.
They gave chase.
Howard 30, who goes by the street name "Peanut," has a long criminal history, with 18 prior arrests and three outstanding warrants. He was wanted for an earlier shooting in East Harlem.
Holder and other officers were responding to reports of gunshots in East Harlem, which police sources said was connected to gang activity.
Howard has been previously arrested multiple times, including a year ago in a case relating to gang activity, officials said.
Howard was also wanted for a shooting on Sept. 1 and there was an active warrant for his arrest, according to Jim O'Neill, the NYPD's chief of department, speaking at a news conference today with Police Commissioner Bill Bratton and Mayor Bill de Blasio.
The NYPD's Manhattan violent felonies squad was actively working the case, O'Neill said, noting, "We were hunting him but obviously [we were] unsuccessful."
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio extended his condolences to Holder's family and vowed, "We will not stop in the relentless pursuit of the violent few."
A viewing for the officer was set to be held at the Community Church of the Nazarene in Far Rockawawy, Queens, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. next Tuesday, the AP said. The funeral was set for 3 p.m. the next day, the AP said, and he will be buried in Guyana.
The incident on Tuesday night started as a gang dispute between members of rival gangs that operate in the adjacent Jefferson Houses, East River houses and the Wagner Houses, police sources told ABC News, noting that there is an ongoing dispute between gangs in the three apartment complexes.
The suspect was wanted on numerous warrants. He engaged contact with officers. He fired upon them, killing one. Officer Randolph Holder was 33 year old. He was a native of Guyana.
Billy Aubry, the NYPD's chief of detectives for Manhattan said that two police officers on the roof of one of those locations observed shots being fired down below and responded.
The gangs got into a dispute in front of a parking garage at 445 E. 102nd St. and that is where shots were fired, police sources said.
"We know from the evidence recovered at the scene that there were at least three firearms that were fired," Aubry said.
Commissioner Bratton questioned why the suspect in the police shooting was diverted to a drug program after his arrest last year as part of a group of 19 violent drug dealers operating in an East Harlem apartment complex.
Howard was ordered into a court-mandated drug diversion program, which is meant to keep some drug offenders from further crowding already overcrowded jails, after his arrest last October, Bratton noted.
But Howard stopped taking part in the program in May.
"If ever there was a candidate to not have been diverted, it would be this guy. He is a poster boy for not being diverted," Bratton said during today's news conference. "He would have been the last person in New York City I would have wanted to see in a diversion program. He has no propensity, with the number of arrests over a many year period of time, of changing his ways."
De Blasio added: "When you look at the offenses this individual committed, they were consistently violent. I don't know the details of how his case was handled by the judge. But I do know someone like this shouldn't have been on the streets."
A man of discipline says his fellow officers. Randolph Holder was NYPD's 4th officer killed the year.
Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus R. Vance, Jr. responded in a statement.
“I am deeply angered and saddened by the senseless murder of Police Officer Holder. This defendant was part of a strategic investigation and prosecution conducted by our Violent Criminal Enterprises Unit, targeting the individuals driving crime in East Harlem," Vance said. "We recommended state prison for the defendant, and opposed his request for diversion.”
Howard is being held without a get out free card. New York's mayor Bill de Blasio wants this "scum" placed in the iron college. Howard has not yet been charged. The NYPD said there's video evidence, physical evidence and witnesses that will tie him to the shooting.
Now that the shooter is caught, who really gets the blame? Here's a quick poll.
Who Gets The Blame In The Killing Of NYPD Officer Randolph Holder?
If you picked the shooter, then you're absolutely correct. Of course, if you're blaming everyone but the shooter (i.e. Obama and Black Lives Matter), then we're going to blame you for the death. See lumping Black Lives Matter and President Barack Obama to the deaths of law enforcement is not productive.
No one condones the deaths of those in law enforcement.
Most Americans believe those in law enforcement deserve praise for risking their lives for the safety of those they've sworn to protect. It's a thankless job. They don't get recognition much. The only time they get recognition is when they are given media attention.
The problem is that those in law enforcement won't weed out the officers who create the divide. The officers who abuse their power while on duty. They are the ones who give law enforcement a bad name.
Mayor Bill de Blasio wipes tears away. He is torn by the lost of Officer Holder.
The blame game is a partisan event in which agitators from the right and the left start accusing a whole group for the sole actions of the suspect.
They seem to always ignore the shooter. The shooter deserves all the blame.
Now you aware of the concern trolls and the #copslivesmatter and #AllLivesMatter hashtag.
The concern trolls use this as a counter attack against the Black Lives Matters activists.
The concern trolls ignore the concerns of the activists. They conclude that Black Lives Matters is anti-cop, anti-White and anti-whatever.
Again, gun crime is an epidemic. This outranks terrorism and Ebola.
The lawmakers in Congress refuse to do anything about it. They conclude that the NRA is more powerful than them.
World News Today send our condolences to the family of Randolph Holder and everyone lost to senseless gun violence.
