The Tamarac City Commission is considering censuring Commissioner Mike Gelin for his calling out Broward County Sheriff's Deputy Joshua Gallardo for wrongfully arresting him during an awards ceremony last week.

The motion of censure is being sponsored by Mayor Michelle Gomez.
You'll remember this.
The censure motion is being considered despite Commissioner Gelin having released his cell phone video of the arrest, which shows he was indeed wrongly arrested and that Deputy Gallardo did in fact lie on the police report.
Here is Mayor Gomez' email: Michelle.Gomez@tamarac.org; and phone number: (954) 597-3460. The meeting will be live-streamed.

Something is rotten in the city of Tamarac and I suggest we let the mayor know all about it.

A 9-year-old boy has been charged with 5 counts of 1st-degree murder after 3 adults & 2 children died in a fire in an Illinois trailer park home. He is the youngest child to be charged with murder in the recent history of the United States. theguardian.com/us-news/2019/o…
It is unclear how prosecutors would be able to show the child had the intent to even set the home on fire, let alone have planned to set it on fire in advance with the intent to kill his family members, which is a required element to prove murder in the first degree.
According to the child's mother he was recently diagnosed with a form of schizophrenia, ADHD, and bipolar disorder.

The jury in the Robert Olsen murder trial are now in their 5th day of deliberations.

Olsen, a White cop, killed Anthony Hill, a 25-year-old Black Air Force veteran, while he was unarmed and naked, in an Atlanta apartment building parking lot.

cnn.com/2019/10/08/us/…
The trial is due to resume on Monday. The jury have indicated they have reached a verdict on some charges, but are deadlocked on others.

The judge has yet to give the jury what is called an "Allen charge," which is where they are urged to reconsider entrenched positions.
(This @CNN article is from yesterday, but there has been no change since then - in fact, the jury indicated they had reached a verdict on some charges, but were deadlocked on others, on Tuesday.)

No coincidence that Rikers Island is named after Richard Riker, a New York magistrate judge, who abused the provisions of the Fugitive Slave Act to send free Blacks to the South to be sold into slavery.
Abolitionists considered Riker a member of the "Kidnapping Club," along with city officials Daniel D. Nash and Tobias Boudinot, who infamously boasted that he could "arrest and send any Black to the South.'"
Under the terms of the Fugitive Slave Act, bounty hunters who caught "fugitive slaves" in the north were supposed to bring some sort of paperwork before a judge to prove a person was in fact a slave.

Mayor of Lancaster says an @LASDHQ #deputy was shot by a #SNIPER.

The rookie deputy was walking in the sheriff’s station parking lot when he was shot by someone in a nearby mental health facility. That building overlooks the sheriff’s station parking lot bit.ly/31XPpdw
The suspect is reportedly somewhere inside the mental health facility.

The LA County Sheriff’s deputy is in the hospital, but is expected to recover. His bullet proof vest reportedly deflected the bullet. I’m told he is a young, rookie deputy.
A @LASDHQ Captain tells us the injured deputy is just 21-years-old. He is a patrol trainee who has been with the department for a year. He is in good spirits, and is going to be OK.

Former Broward County Sheriff's Deputy Scot Peterson will face criminal charges for failing to act during the Parkland shooting. politi.co/2Ioj3Au via @politico
Florida’s prosecuting a Sheriff’s Deputy for failure to be a good guy with a gun but still ain’t doing jack shit to prevent mass shootings. Only side the GOP’s on is the guns’. 😒
How’s about banning and buying back assault weapons and high capacity magazines so all these aspiring good guys with guns won’t be outgunned by Florida Man when it’s their turn to heed the call? What kind of sense does it even make that we have to gameplan this crazy ass shit? 🤷🏾‍♀️
