Jay-Z Admits to Shooting His Brother at 12 Years Old

Jay-Z, a well known celebrity, admits to shooting his brother when he was just 12-years-old. His brother survived and did not press charges on Jay-Z. Jay-Z, otherwise known as Shawn Carter, and his brother grew up in Brooklyn's violent housing projects. Jay says that back then it was easy to get a gun no matter what age you were they were everywhere. He says his brother had a crack addiction and that he had stolen a ring from him and so he shot him. He admits to being very scared after the gun went off, thinking that his life was over. He is now very famous with lots of money and is married to Beyonce Knowles.



Wow! That is just crazy! I mean I can understand what he had to go through. Those housing projects in Brooklyn are still a rough place to live now a days and I'm sure Jay had to see some things that weren't meant for a child to be seeing. Thank God he didn't kill his brother because then he would have had to live with that for the rest of his life. At least it made his brother realize his problem and apoligize for his addiction. Everybody has had a bad time at least once in their lives. Sometimes other people's definition of a bad time can be REALLY bad. I think that it taught Jay a lesson that day and that lesson was that guns are a very serious weapon. A gun is not a toy. It can turn into something very serious when there is a gun involved. I'm just glad he turned out to be the man that he is today instead of one of the many murderous people that live in those housing projects. He chose a different path and that gave him a good outcome. I'm sure his brother was really thankful that the shot wasn't fatal. Guns don't solve problems they just make new ones. Thank God it's not SO easy to get a gun anymore. I mean people still steal weapons but at least you can't just walk into a convienent store and pick one up and buy it. Now you have to register your weapon!

Thieves Leave Pizzeria With the Wrong Dough

In this article, a bunch of theives tried to rob the owners of a local pizzeria for their bag of "dough". Salvatore LaRosa and an acomplice followed the owners of the Brothers Pizzeria, in New York City on Staten Island. The theives wore masks and pointed guns at the two owners and demand that they give up the bag that they were carrying with them. The theives believed that the bag contained the money that they made at the pizzeria for the day. The bag actually contained a bunch of pizza dough that the owners were carrying with them. La rosa was released on a 1 million dollar bail on Monday.



Well I guess this is what people call the "classic mix up". I thought that this story was so funny. I bet that guy was like "oh crap!" when he found out that there wasn't any money in that bag, just pizza dough! That would suck to have to go to jail with that story. It would suck to be prepared to rob somebody for money and then find out that what you just stole was not money but pizza dough. I guess not everybody can have their cake and eat it too, or in this case pizza! I bet the pizzeria brothers were confused as to why those idiots were robbing them of their pizza dough! At least nobody got hurt in the pizza robbing process. It could have been really bad. They could have shot the pizza owners over that "dough". Thank God that didn't happen though because then this would have been a sad story instead of a funny one. Plus, if the guy had shot the pizza owners he would have a way bigger charge on him than just stealing some pizza dough. Although, a 1 million dollar bail is a pretty high price to pay for stealing pizza dough.

Authorities Investigate Whether Teen's Mutilated Body Fell From Plane

Authorites are trying to figure out if the mutilated body of a teenager fell from a plan. Delvonte Tisdale, a 16- year-old from Charlotte, North Carolina, was found dead and mutilated on an upscale neighborhood lawn in Massachusetts. Police say that he suffered severe head trauma and severely broken arms and legs. Tisdale was last seen in his hometown in North Carolina on November 14th. His dad reported him missing the next day and his body was found 3 hours later on a lawn on Brierbrook street in Milton Massachusetts. He didn't have any shoes, shirt or identification on him just a hallpass in his pocket that had his last name on it. Tisdale's family said he ran away from home and may have been on his way to visit other family members in Boston. They found his body on two different places of the street.



I thought that this story was very interesting. If you think about it, bodies don't just fall from the sky everyday. I understand that they aren't for sure if his body fell from a plane, but I'd say that is exactly what happened. All the clues point to him falling out of a plane. Think about it. He came from somewhere in the sky oviously so it has to be a plane because how would he have gotten to Massachusetts in 3 hours from North Carolina. He sure didn't get there by driving because they found his body within' 3 hours after being reported missing and there is no way you could get from North Carolina to Massachusetts in 3 hours. They found his body in an upscale neighborhood in two different places on the street meaning that he had to have fallen from the sky and his body landed in two different places in the same neighborhood. His family said that he had ran away from home and may have been heading to Boston to visit other family member, so in order to get from North Caroline to Boston in 3 hours time he would have had to taken a plane. Now that we have established that he had to have fallen from a plane somebody needs to figure out why. I wonder if somebody on the plane took him captive and then beat him up and threw him off the plane. Maybe he just jumped out and commited suicide. Maybe he just got stuck somewhere on the plane where he shouldn't have been and somehow he ended up leaving the plane involuntarily. I wonder if they can figure all that out from an autopsy? Whatever happened to this poor guy it sure wasn't pleasant and he had to have fallen out of a plane because nobody just falls out of the sky.

Vanity Plate on Getaway Car IDs Robbery Suspect

New Hampshire woman is easily found after robbing a pharmacy on Friday. Her license plate had her name on it in big letters. A motorist recalled seeing the lady fleeing from a Rite Aid parking lot and tossing items from her car. The license plate on the car read "B-USHER". The car was registered to a Bonnie Usher. Police arrested Bonnie at her home after recovering stolen money and a ski mask that was tossed from the car. Bonnie Usher is being held on a $60,000 bail bond.



I thought that this was another funny crime story. The things people think they can get away with never seem to surprise me, but things like this do make me laugh. I guess this lady forgot that she had her name bolted to her car for everyone to read. I wonder why she chose to rob a pharmacy. It didn't say that she had stolen any drugs just money. I would have picked somewhere else to rob and I would have taken the license plate, that had my name on it, off the car before I even went to go rob that place. DUH! I bet that lady is kicking her own ass for that one! What a dumb chick. Somebody needs to tell her that if she wants to be a criminal then she shouldn't put her name out there. I guess some crooks like to "sign" their work. All the great ones do it! I bet the people she has to share a cell with are laughing at her. She's to stupid to be a real criminal. I love blogging about the stupid criminals. It's always a good laugh for everyone. I have a friend that works with me at D.Q. and she is always getting in trouble for driving without a license. She has no tags on the car and her car has Texas plates on it! I tell her all the time that maybe she should do something about her license plate and maybe she might have a better chance of getting away with it. She's not a criminal. She just gets arrested for the same thing! At least her name isn't on her plates and she isn't robbing a place of business.

Woman Tried to Assault Cop With Sex Toy

A woman assulted an officer with a sex toy in Gurnee, Illinois on Thursday. The woman ordered and ate food at Joe's Crab Shack at around 7:20pm and then left the restaurant without paying. The employee's called the police and gave a description of the lady that did the dine and dash. The cop found 56 year old Carolee Bildsten laying on the ground near the Six Flags amusement park. She fit the description the employee's gave the officer. She was intoxicated and told the officer that she did not have any money on her and that she had some at her home. The officer escorted her to her house where she went to her bedroom to retrieve the money. She then reached inside her dresser and pulled out a 'clear, rigid feminine pleasure device' and held it over her head and started to approach the officer in a threatening manner. The officer knocked the device out of the way prior to being struck and placed the woman under arrest. Bildsten was charged with theft of labor for allegedly walking out on the restaurant bill, pedestrian under the influence for walking on city streets while inebriated, and aggravated assault for menacing the officer with a sex toy.



This story was SO funny that I had to blog about it. People do some crazy things when they are drunk. If I were an employee that had a dine and dasher do that to me then I would call the police to. It's not right to eat and run without paying your tab first. I've never been one for dishonesty. That poor cop! I bet he thought he was just doing the right thing by being nice and escorting that drunk lady to her house to get her money that she left at home. He probably would have just took the money and left her there safe at home to sleep it off if she wouldn't have assaulted him. Most cops just arrest you on the scene. That cop could have just arrested her after finding her laying there on the ground in front of Six Flags, but he was nice and escorted her home to get he money. He probably just thought that she was a sweet old lady that just had a little to much to drink. I wish I could have seen the look on that cops face when she started coming towards him with a dildo in her hand! I bet he was like "What the hell?!" Ha. Ha. Anyway, I guess we know that hitting a cop with a dildo can lead to being arrested! That lady will probably be remembered from now on as the dildo assualter!

Hundreds Mourn Teen Beaten to Death at Georgia House Party

A teen is pronounced dead after being beaten to death at a house party in Georgia. 18 year old  Bobby Tillman was just passing through the room at the party when he was targeted by four men and beaten to death. Tillman did not know the people who attacked him. The fight started with a man and a woman fighting and the woman hit the man. The man said that he wouldn't hit her back, but he would hit the next man that walked by. Sadly, Tillman was that next man. Tillman's family mourned over his body and the memories that were brought to the funeral. His funeral brought a  message to teens that violence is not okay and that you must stand up to it.




I think that this is a sad article. This sort of thing happens all the time and all over the world. Teens and just people in general should be aware of things like this. It's a growing problem and people should take a stand. That guy didn't have to die. He could have lived and continued on having a good life and making more memories, but because of the people at that party, he was murdered. That girl shouldn't have even hit the other guy to begin with. She had another choice that she could have made. She should have just walked away, but the guy had a choice too. He could have chose to walk away from that girl and continued on with his night. Just because he did the right thing by not hitting that girl doesn't give him the right to take it out on an innocent bystander. Tillman didn't even know any of those people that beat him to death and that is what is really sad about this story. He did nothing wrong all he was doing was passing through and he was attacked by a bunch of strangers that thought it would be okay to take their anger out on the next person who walked by. I think everyone at that party should have stood up and stopped it. Everyone has a voice and everybody at that party should have used their voices to take a stand and stop the violence. If they had, then this guy would still be alive today. Everyone has a choice to do the right thing. I think this was horrible that not one person at that party tried to reach out and help that guy. My heart goes out to his family.

L.A. police arrest 88 in raid of downtown club

Police arrested 81 women and 7 men at an L.A. downtown "hostess" club raid. People that go to hostess clubs in L.A. are allowed to legally pay women for time and companionship but not for nudity or stripping. The 88 people were arrested at club 907 on Friday for suspicion of prostitution, lewd conduct, gambling and the use of counterfeit identification. Some of those arrested may have been illegal immigrant women trafficked into the U.S. and then forced to work at the club. Nearly three dozen officers took part in the raid. 400 people were crowded into a space with a capacity for only 250.





Stuff like this just makes me sick. I can't believe stuff like this still goes on in America. I can see something like this still happening in foreign countries, but something needs to be done. I'm glad the police got on this and stopped what was happening in that club. I understand that some people like to go to the club and some people like to go to the strip joints, but it's just sick that 400 people were packed into a place that holds a maximum capacity of 250 people just to take part in the illegal prostitution that was going on in this place. Some of those girls were taken from another country and forced to be in there and do that sickening job. I feel sorry for those poor girls. I would just want to die if somebody did that to me! Those people deserved to be arrested. I hope that whoever owned that club is getting a long sentence in prison. Whoever owns that place and is running that business is a sick person. It's one thing to have a choice at prostitution, but it's quite another to be doing it against your will. How on earth did they get all those people in there anyway? I bet the police had a hard time getting throught all the people.

Dallas Cowboys Fire Coach Wade Phillips

This article is about the Dallas Cowboy's former head coach being fired in the middle of the football season. The owner of the Dallas Cowboys, Jerry Jones, fired head coach Wade Phillips on Monday after losing to the Greenbay Packers, 45-7, at the Sunday night game on November 7th. This would be the Cowboy's fifth straight loss, dropping them to 1-7. This is their worst season since 1989. Dallas was coming off a division title and a playoff win. Phillips' departure is the first in-season coaching change in club history. Jason Garrett is set to take Phillips' place starting with the Sunday night game at the New York Jets next week.





Okay, I had to comment on this article only because my husband is a HUGE Cowboy's fan. I don't mind watching them play, but I was born in K.C. Missouri so I'm a Chiefs fan all the way! I know that the Cowboy's aren't having a very good year this year, but I really don't believe that it is the coaches fault. The players don't even seem like they are trying to win anymore. They just let the Packers run all over them Sunday night! I think something is going on behind the scenes that we don't know about. I mean, think about it, the Cowboys were in the playoffs last year and now they suck! Something seems wrong about the whole thing. Personally, I think that Jerry Jones seems like a prick. I bet poor Phillips is probably glad to be out of there! He always looked like he was stressed out. Jerry Jones just sits up in the box with a scowl on his face all day long thinking about how much money he is losing and decides to take it out on Phillips. I think that the players need to be punished or at least they need a pep talk, because they are the ones that are playing lousy this year. I mean what did they do? Did they all just decide to give up? They all need to suck it up and play the game right, because they are letting their fans down big time! It's pretty bad when the Cowboys are blowing it worse than the Chiefs! Usually my husband is making fun of my team! Now it's the other way around!

Michael Jackson's Kids Remember Their Father on 'Oprah'

This article is about Michael Jackson's children opening up to Oprah about their father and his death. Michael Jackson's three children tell Oprah what they miss the most about their deceased father a year and a half after his death. Michael's children, 13-year-old Prince, 12-year-old Paris, and 8-year-old Blanket, sat with their grandmother, Katherine Jackson, and recollected memories of the times they spent with their father before he died. The children told Oprah how much they missed him and what a good father he was. His mother shared her remorse for her sons death.





I know the Michael Jackson thing is still getting attention these days and it is annoying to some people to still have to hear about him, even though he has been dead for a year and a half. He was a HUGE celebrity though. Some people may call him a freak, but everybody will always remember him whether it be good or bad memories. Everyone knew who this man was. People all over the world came to grieve and pay their last respects at his funeral. When I saw the headline of this story I just had to read it. Many people have their own opinion of Michael Jackson, but it's his family who knew who he really was as a person. I read this and it seems that he must've been a good person, despite what people may think of him. I don't think that his family would say good things about him if he wasn't a "good" dad. His mother and children really seem to miss him now that he is gone. When you read some of the memories in the article that his children recalled about him, he really does seem like a great dad. I know that my dad never spent time with me like Michael spent with his children. I'm glad that his family keep him in their thoughts the way that they have, despite all the negative remarks surrounding him.

Pennsylvania Man Breaks Into Empty Home, Lives There 3 Days

man duped a construction company by saying that he was thinking about buying a $450,000 home and ended up breaking into it instead. 23-year-old Adam Rodriguez broke into the expensive home and changed the security code on the garage door and moved his furniture in moments later after breaking in. Rodriguez lived in the home for three days before being caught by police. Rodriguez was arrested Monday and charged with burglary, criminal trespass and theft of services.



What an idiot this guy was. Why would you tell a construction company that you might like to buy a home and then break into that home and try to live there. Breaking into a house is not going to go unnoticed, especially if the construction company you talked to is working on that house. That guy was stupid for even thinking that he could get away with holding up in the house let alone moving his furniture in! Why would you even bother moving your furniture in? You gotta know that you are going to get caught just for breaking into the place so why would you even attempt to make yourself at home? I bet the judge was laughing when he heard that he was going to have to settle this case. I wonder what the guy's excuse was for doing that? I kinda wish I could've been a fly on the wall for that explanation!

Body of Alabama Nurse Found in Trunk

The body of a nurse was found dead in the trunk of her car. The body of 44-year-old Carla Smith, who was the nursing supervisor at Riverview Regional Medical Center's emergency department was found Monday  afternoon by personnel with an ambulance company. Her car was found in a gravel lot and she was dressed in her nursing clothes. Police believe that she must have been on her way to or from work when she was murdered and stuffed in her trunk. There are no leads as to who murdered Smith. The car was deserted in the gravel lot when she was found.



What a terrible way to die. I hope that nobody ever murders me and stuffs me in my trunk and deserts me in a gravel lot somewhere. I bet her family were wondering where she was and why they hadn't heard from her lately. I bet her friends and family are mortified now that she's been found. Nobody wants to get a phone call saying that they found their loved one stuffed in the trunk of her car dead. I wonder what that poor lady had to go through before she was stuffed in that trunk. What a horrible thing to have to go through. It's always the good people that help others and do the right thing that end up being murdered and stuffed somewhere and deserted only to be found later by a stranger. I wonder how long that poo lady was in there before they found her. At least they were able to identify her. Some people are brutally murdered to where nobody can figure out who they are. My heart goes out to this lady and he family. I hope they find out who did this to her and give him the punishment he deserves.

Man Sentenced to Life for Killing 3 College Students in New Jersey Schoolyard

man is being sentenced to life in prison after murdering three college students in a New Jersey schoolyard. Melvin Jovel and 5 other men lined up three victoms along the wall of a new Jersey school and shot each one in the back of the head. Melvin Jovel is 21 years old and showed no remorse for murdering the victoms while he was in court for his sentence hearing. The victoms families were furious when Jovel wouldn't even look them in the face when they were speaking at the court hearing. A judge sentenced Jovel to three consecutive life sentences plus 20 years.




I read this story and it made me so mad. How can you do something like that and then not even feel remotely bad about it at all? I think that this is one of those cases where they should have gave the guy the death sentence. If someone has the balls to line three people up against a wall and shoot them in the back of the head point blank, then I think that he should not have been given the choice to live. He didn't give those three vistoms the chance to live. He didn't even feel bad about shooting them point blank in the back of the head. A life for a life in this matter. Although, a life sentence in prison at the age of 21 is a pretty good punishment. At least he will be in a cage for the rest of his life, but what if he escapes from that cage? If he were given the death sentence there would be no escape. You can't escape death. You can only plead your case to God when you get to the pearly gates. In this case, if he were given the death sentence, I bet God would have sent him straight to hell. If I were the victoms family I would have been screaming at him to look me in the face and listen to what I have to say!
