TopicMurder-suicide of 5 stemmed from dispute over will of deceased mother

An adult son distraught over the possible sale of his recently deceased mother's home killed four of his family members and then himself in Syosset, authorities said.
The murder-suicide happened on Wyoming Court just before noon on Sunday.
Theresa DeLucia, 95, died on Aug. 19 and her funeral was this past Friday. The family was in the process of listing the house, and Joseph DeLucia Jr., 59, apparently thought he was going to be cut out of the will and have nowhere to live. Neighbors say DeLucia, who had a history of mental illness, had lived there his entire life.
Authorities said he killed his siblings and a niece before turning the gun on himself.
Joann Kearns, 69, Frank DeLucia, 64, Tina Hammond, 64, and her daughter Victoria, 30, were all fatally shot in the rear den of the home.
"The perception of Joseph Jr. was he was being cut out of the will and was going to be displaced without a place to go. He had past mental issues, psych issues, that were reported to us. Because of that perception, he decided that day to get a loaded, Mossberg shotgun, 12 gauge, approached them in the rear area of the house, and from the kitchen, fired 12 shots, striking all four of them multiple times," said Det. Capt. Stephen Fitzpatrick of the Nassau County Police Department.
DeLucia, Jr. then apparently turned the gun on himself in the front lawn of the home.
"He then took the weapon, went out to the front lawn, was shouting indiscriminately about what happened. A neighbor heard him doing this, called 911, and that was our 911 caller. He then fired a self-inflicted shot to the chest," Fitzpatrick said.
Some neighbors knew the mother and son who lived in the home for decades.
"The mother who owned the house recently passed away. The family was in, and from what I understand is there was possibly a dispute," said Corey Margulefsky, a neighbor.
In fact, neighbors say a real estate agent arrived to help the family in town take the next steps to list the house, but it was already a crime scene.
One neighbor told Eyewitness News that the idea of losing the house was just too hard for the son, who had lived there all his life.
He worked as an auto mechanic at a local dealership.
"He was kind of a hoarder, spent all his money on his tools and stuff. The house was pretty much packed with tools and stuff involved in auto mechanics. He lived there all his life, never lived on his own. So you can see the mindset where his world was now changing, 59 years old, and he was panicking," Fitzpatrick said.
Police Commissioner Patrick Ryder called it "probably one of the most horrific scenes I have ever seen."
"There was talk in that community about the distress of this shooter, who decided he did not want to leave his residence after his mom died. There was talk in that community that if you hear shots fired, don't call the police, it will be too late. These are things that are disturbing to us in law enforcement," Ryder said.
He added that red-flag laws, "are in place for a reason."

https://wgntv.com/news/wgn-investigates/suburban-school-worker-pleads-guilty-to-stealing-1-5m-worth-of-chicken-wings-from-district/amp/

A south suburban school worker has pled guilty to stealing $1.5 millions worth of food, mainly chicken wings.
Vera Liddell was the food service director for Harvey School District 152.
Cook County prosecutors accused her of stealing massive amounts of food meant for take-home meals for students learning remotely during the pandemic.
The Cook County States Attorney tells WGN Investigates that Liddell entered a guilty plea Friday and received a 9-year prison sentence.
Court records accuse Liddell of ordering more than 11,000 cases of chicken wings from the school districts food provider and then picking-up the order in a district cargo van.
The scheme was uncovered by the districts business manager during a routine mid-year audit.

I don't think we ever had chicken wings in my school lunches. Just nuggets.

TopicBiden to pardon thousands of veterans convicted for gay sex under military law
Simon_Gruber

President Joe Biden is set to pardon thousands of veterans who were convicted under a military law that prohibited gay sex, his administration announced on Wednesday.
The pardon will apply to service members convicted between 1951 and 2013 under Article 125 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice, which criminalized sodomy and essentially banned gay and lesbian service members from having sex. The pardon will affect about 2,000 people, CNN reported.
This is about dignity, decency, and ensuring the culture of our Armed Forces reflect the values that make us an exceptional nation, Biden said in a statement.
Those who are eligible can apply for a certificate of pardon, and if approved, they will be able to petition to have their discharge records changed, according to NBC News. Biden administration officials told reporters that the president was righting an historic wrong.
The U.S. military has a long and sordid record of discriminating against LGBTQ service members. Both men and women have been prosecuted under military law and discharged from the military for their sexual orientation. In 1993, President Bill Clinton implemented the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy that barred openly queer people from serving in the military, intended as a kind of middle ground that allowed gay people to serve so long as they were not open about their sexual orientation. President Barack Obama repealed the policy in 2010 and, three years later, Congress lifted the ban on gay sex in the military.
Biden will issue a clemency proclamation on Thursday, administration officials said, just hours before he is scheduled to debate Donald Trump for the first time in this election. Among other policy issues, Biden is likely to seek to distinguish his record on LGBTQ rights from that of his opponent, who has vowed to dismantle protections for transgender people if re-elected.
More people now identify as queer than ever before, according to a recent Gallup survey. With the 2024 election set to be a razor-thin race, LGBTQ voters may play a decisive role, especially in battleground states; a Washington Post analysis found that LGBTQ voters may have been crucial to Biden's 2020 election win.

Local Colorado officials have reached an $8.5 million settlement with a woman who was hospitalized in 2022 after being left handcuffed in a police SUV that was then hit by a train.
The city of Fort Lupton and town of Platteville, Colorado, agreed on the settlement with the victim, Yareni Rios-Gonzalez, according to a release from the Fort Lupton Police Department. The settlement amount will be split equally between the town and city and paid by their insurers, according to attorney Eric M. Ziporin, whose office represents the city.
Rios, who was a suspect in a road rage case, survived the September 2022 collision but suffered nine broken ribs, a broken arm and other injuries.
This voluntary settlement is to the mutual satisfaction of the parties, recognizes the gravity of this matter, and allows all parties to move forward, the Fort Lupton police department said.
Fort Lupton police officer Jordan Steinke, who placed Rios in the vehicle, was found guilty last year of reckless endangerment and third-degree assault in the crash and was sentenced to serve 30 months of supervised probation and 100 hours of public service.
On the day of the crash, Steinke joined a traffic stop in which officers had pulled over Rios, who authorities said was suspected of brandishing a gun at another driver earlier in the evening. Steinke put Rios into the cruiser of Platteville police officer Pablo Vasquez, who had parked in the middle of a railroad crossing.
Body and dash camera video released by police showed Rios screaming for help as the train approached and slammed into the vehicle.
Steinke argued during her trial that she didnt notice the location of the railroad tracks despite several warning signs, including one next to where she parked her vehicle.
The officer said she was not fully aware of her surroundings because she was concerned about approaching a suspect who may have a gun. You can only divide your attention so much, Steinke testified.
CNN has sought comment from the Town of Platteville and an attorney for Rios regarding the settlement.
Fort Lupton is about 30 miles north of Denver.

Looks like his license wasn't supposed to be suspended after all:

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2024/06/03/corey-harris-suspended-license/73963078007/

What Simpson and no one in the courtroom apparently knew was that another judge had rescinded Harris' license suspension in January 2022, according to Saginaw County court records obtained by USA TODAY on Monday.

Harris spent two days in jail after the hearing, abiding by Simpson's order and turning himself in. Although Harris did the time, he told WXYZ-TV that the license suspension was "supposed to have been lifted two years ago, but they didn't."
"It's very embarrassing," Harris said about the whole situation.
Khyla Craine, deputy legal director for the Michigan Secretary of State, told the station that the process to get a driver's license reinstated "can be complicated."
"Sometimes it is simple as we at the Secretary of State's office did not get a clearance from the court that everything was done, but something happened in the wires, and we needed to talk to the court to get the clearance and clean it up for the resident," Craine said.

Topic21 year old boy from Utah attempts a coup in the Congo
Simon_Gruber

#1
The family of an American caught up in a failed coup attempt in Congo said their son was in Africa on vacation with family friends and had not previously engaged in political activism, according to a statement provided to The Associated Press.
Tyler Thompson, 21, was one of at least three Americans who were named by the Congolese army as being part of a failed effort to overthrow the government in Kinshasa in the early hours Sunday under eccentric, self-exiled leader Christian Malanga. The two other Americans allegedly involved were Benjamin Reuben Zalman-Polun, and Malangas Utah-born son, Marcel, 21, who was arrested by Congolese forces.
We are stunned and heartbroken by the videos we have seen from the coup attempt, Thompsons stepmother, Miranda Thompson, said in a direct message on the social media platform X. We have no idea how he got wrapped up in this situation, which is completely out of character for him. We are certain he did not go to Africa with plans for political activism.
Malanga, the alleged leader, was shot dead after resisting arrest, the Congolese army said. In all, six people were killed in the attack on the presidential palace and another on the residence of a close ally of President Felix Tshisekedi.
Although the Congolese government has not clarified whether Thompson was among those arrested or killed, a video circulating on social media shows him surrounded by Congolese soldiers with his hands clasped tightly and a frightened look on his bloodied face. He and Marcel Malanga are forced to their feet and soldiers tie their hands behind their backs.
Thompson had played high school football with Marcel Malanga in the Salt Lake City suburb of West Jordan and was the only former teammate to accept his invitation to travel to Congo, according to several other players who told the AP they had been invited.
Marcel Malanga had pitched the trip to many of his high school friends in the months leading up to the foiled coup attempt. Some said he had invited them on a family vacation, while others, including former football teammate Jaden Lalor, said he had pitched it as a service trip to build wells. Teammates recounted Marcel Malangas increasing desperation as friend after friend declined.
He did call me to ask if I wanted to go to Africa for vacation, as well as a few of my other friends, but he did not offer to take more than a single one of us at a time, said Luke Barbee, another former teammate who lived with Marcel Malanga last year. He only asked so many of us because he kept getting denied until Tyler said yes to the trip.
Barbee was shocked to learn of his friends involvement in the attack and said it seemed out of character for both young men.
Marcel Malanga had a strained relationship with his father, Lalor said, adding that he could have been easily pressured or manipulated into following his fathers plans.
Marcel is a super respectful kid, rough around the edges, but not enough to go and murder people, Lalor said. I know they had to have been brainwashed or forced to do this because Tyler had never been one for conflict. Hes one of the most laid back or chill kids you would meet.
Thompsons stepmother said he was not politically engaged and was simply excited to see the world with his friend.
He is a good kid, a hard worker and a respectful young man, Miranda Thompson said of her stepson. Were so lost as to how he ended up in this mess.
The U.S. State Department strongly discourages travel to Congo, warning of violent crime and civil unrest. Americans are specifically encouraged to avoid demonstrations that might result in arrest due to the U.S. governments extremely limited ability to provide emergency consular services to U.S. citizens in many parts of the country.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken condemned the attack in a call with Tshisekedi on Wednesday and offered help from the U.S. with the investigation, according to a summary of the call.
The U.S. Embassy in Congo said Thursday that it was still waiting for the Congolese government to provide evidence that the arrested individuals were Americans before it could provide consular services to them.
The Congolese government has not given a date for when the suspects will appear in court.

A Florida man, who aspired to become a police officer, admitted to sexually abusing his cousin during a police department job interview and now faces life in prison.
Stephen Bodley, 26, was convicted by an Orange County jury last week of sexual battery on a child, the office of State Attorney Andrew Bain said in a news release.
Bodley first mentioned "playing sexual games" in a sworn officer application with the Apopka Police Department. He again mentioned the crime during an interview.
"The certified voice stress analysis examiner performed a voice stress examination on Bodley," Bain said. "During the examination, the examiner asked Bodley to expand on concerning answers he provided in a pre-test questionnaire."
Bodley described sexually abusing a child years ago and admitted to it when he was asked to expand further. Detectives tracked down the victim's mother, who said Bodley and the victim had a close relationship, The Tampa Bay Times reported, citing an affidavit.
The victim, a female, told the Florida Department of Children and Families about the abuse, saying it took place over several years, from when Bodley was around 14 to when he was about 19, the newspaper reported.
Bodley's lawyer asked that his confession not be presented during trial, but a judge denied the request.
He is scheduled to be sentenced on June 24. The conviction carries a sentence of up to life in prison.

Warner Bros. to Release First New Lord of the Rings Movie The Hunt for Gollum in 2026, Peter Jackson to Produce and Andy Serkis to Direct

Warner Bros. will release the first of its new batch of The Lord of the Rings films in 2026, which will focus on Andy Serkiss Gollum.
Original The Lord of the Rings trilogy filmmaker Peter Jackson and his partners Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens are producing the movie and will be involved every step of the way, Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav said during an earnings call Thursday.
The project is currently in the early stages of script development from writers Walsh and Boyens, along with Phoebe Gittins and Arty Papageorgiou, and will explore storylines yet to be told, Zaslav said.

In a press release from Warner Bros. later Thursday morning, the studio revealed that the working title for the film is Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum, and it will be directed by and star Serkis in his iconic titular role. The film will be executive produced by Ken Kamins, with Serkis and The Imaginariums Jonathan Cavendish.
Warner Bros. first announced in February 2023 that then-newly installed studio leaders Mike De Luca and Pam Abdy had brokered a deal to make multiple films based on the beloved J.R.R. Tolkien books. The projects will be developed through WB label New Line Cinema. Freemode, a division of Embracer Group, made the adaptive rights deal for books including The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit under a venture named Middle-earth Enterprises.
For over two decades, moviegoers have embraced the Lord of the Rings film trilogy because of the undeniable devotion Peter, Fran and Philippa have shown towards protecting the legacy of Tolkiens works, and to ensure audiences could experience the incredible world he created in a way that honors his literary vision, De Luca and Abdy said in a statement Thursday. We are honored they have agreed be our partners on these two new films. With Andy coming aboard to direct Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum, we continue an important commitment to excellence that is a true hallmark of how we all want to venture ahead and further contribute to the Lord of the Rings cinematic history.
Jackson, Walsh and Boyens added: It is an honour and a privilege to travel back to Middle-earth with our good friend and collaborator, Andy Serkis, who has unfinished business with that Stinker Gollum! As life long fans of Professor Tolkiens vast mythology, we are proud to be working with Mike De Luca, Pam Abdy and the entire team at Warner Bros. on another epic adventure!
Yesssss, Precious, Serkis said. The time has come once more to venture into the unknown with my dear friends, the extraordinary and incomparable guardians of Middle Earth Peter, Fran and Philippa. With Mike and Pam, and the Warner Bros team on the quest as well, alongside WETA and our filmmaking family in New Zealand, its just all too delicious
The original Lord of the Rings trilogy, helmed by Jackson, grossed nearly $3 billion worldwide; Jacksons follow-up trilogy based on Tolkiens The Hobbit matched those grosses.
Jacksons first LOTR trilogy starred Elijah Wood, Ian McKellen, Liv Tyler, Viggo Mortensen, Sean Astin and Cate Blanchett. That trio of films was nominated for 30 Academy Awards and took home 17 trophies, including best picture for 2003s The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.

So this would be Gandalf and Aragorn hunting Gollum during the years after Bilbo's Bday party but before Frodo leaves?
