Photo by Mike Anzaldi (click on it to enlarge). Chicago, IL—Mayor Daley has tried hard to sweep things like murder under the rug. His gun bans have backfired enabling armed criminals to victimize the law-abiding. It makes perfect sense to violate the civil rights and arrest those who dare take photos of violent crime scenes for publishing purposes. Such was the case of the newsman who took this photograph from outside police lines on private property where many others were lawfully observing the ongoing police activities. Civilian police media flak, Monique Bond ordered the police credentialed news photographer, Mike Anzaldi to stop taking pictures and video. When Anzaldi dared continue, he was arrested and his cameras were confiscated. Police deleted the images that were later recovered with the use of special software such as the one above that were were published anyway. This outrageous violation of Anzald’s civil rights needs swift legal action. MS. Bond needs to be remove...

Los Angeles, CA —With our sinking economy insurance companies are quietly bracing for an epidemic of fraudulent claims and a wave of arson fires. People who are over their head in car payments will arrange for the theft or burning of their gas guzzling problems. People facing home foreclosure too often resort to the less credit damaging and more profitable remedy of arson. Boats have been burning and sinking since the fuel prices skyrocketed. We know that massive layoffs are being planned right now for ailing business nationwide. Even our health care industries are in trouble as millions of Americans will be losing their health insurance and all ability to pay for services. Every kind of property crime can be expected to skyrocket. What insurance fraud won’t do to insurance companies will be made up in claims as a result of burglaries, robberies and general theft. More people will be sent to the hospital or killed as a result incidental violence at the hands of criminals. America has b...

Los Angeles, CA —I’ve seen the disintegration of TV news over the last decade. Audiences are getting smaller and ad revenues are shrinking. The news directors are desperate to do anything to attract viewers short of bringing them real news. KTLA-TV has brought forward a story that is of obvious importance to those who want to know about the burning issues that affect all of us. It’s November sweeps time and they make a special effort to give us what they think we need and want. KTLA-TV thought we all needed to know about, “getting your Betty ready”. Among the disappointments here is you never really get to see and meet Betty, she is left for your vivid imagination. I guess when TV executives are desperate, almost anything goes. I’ve seen a lot of total trash in my time but this takes the cake for all times.

Richmond, VA — 30 retired FBI agents joined numerous former justice department officials have broken ranks and demanded clemency for four American sailors wrongfully convicted of a 1997 rape and murder of a Norfolk woman. The lawmen in an unprecedented move held a press conference seeking Virginia’s Governor to right a decade old wrong. I have no firsthand knowledge of this case or investigation but can’t deny the finding of this esteemed group. I can’t imagine the Virginia governor failing to take action under pressure from this unstoppable group. The case sounds intriguing and I see an exciting feature film in the works. Here is What ABC News has to say. Here is the website for the Norfolk Four.

Chicago, IL — My Space has proven to be as popular with Chicago’s Gangster Disciples street gang, as the high school and College students. Julia Hudson, Justin Hudson, Gregory King and William Balfour among many other members of the Gangster Disciples have My Space pages for social networking. Cops have been looking closely at the postings and the “friends” added to these pages. As in every high profile story the media needs and longs for usable photographs of the newsmakers. Ms Space has proven to be a gold mine where people publish millions of photos without any form of copyright protection. That’s where most of the Hudson family murder story pictures came from. Police found one young Mississippi college student who claimed she got a phone call from Balfour in the wee hours of October 24. 19 year-old, Rashia Whitlock told police that Balfour told her that he and his "boyz'' were "getting ready for something real big that's going to go down tomorrow" ...

November 11, 2008 we will soon embark on a four year period with a President that has never served his country in the military. He will be the Commander in Chief with zero qualifications for that role. Not only has he never served but the same holds true for his entire family. Aside from the abject ignorance of the voters and the lack of a desirable Republican candidate we’ve got what we’ve got. It’s depressing. So many Americans died fighting Communists and now we have elected one for our nation’s highest office. In any event for those brave Americans who died and those who served this is for you:

Castelvolturno, Italy-- Her politics destroyed her budding American career. She had a wildly fun song, Pata-Pata that really rocked back in 1967. At 35 years of age Miriam Makeba hooked up with Black Panther Stokley Carmichael and went on a Black Power trip and got her banned from American music business. Makeba was a total Bolshevik. You can correctly blame Makeba’s dealings with the unfair South African government that banned from her own country for more than 30 years under apartheid for her views and politics. One thing I cannot deny was Makeba’s talent and showmanship. When I was living in Germany I can remember some really terrific girlfriends of mine that loved to dance to Pata-Pata as only Mekeba could sing it. Makeba died today as she lived at age 76 on a stage doing what she loved, entertaining before an outdoor audience, in the open air at Via Verde, in the small town of Castelvolturno, not far from Naples. She collapsed and later died. Makeba’s politics were overshadowed...

Joliet, IL —As Crimefile News has reported there was at least one snitch giving information to police about the gun used to kill three members of American Idol and Oscar winning actress, Jennifer Hudson’s family. At an Illinois parole hearing this morning it was revealed that one of potential suspect, William Balfour’s girlfriends, Shonta Cathey revealed that Balfour was in possession of an unusual, two tone semi-automatic pistol believed to be the same Sig-Saur P220 .45 ACP used in the triple murder. Another yet to be publically identified girlfriend has also come forward with damming information. Crime labs are still conducting tests on DNA material. I’m told they are confident that they will have a solid case against Balfour for the murders. As of now Balfour has not been charged with anything except parole violations. Balfour is set for another chapter in his parole violation saga on December 3, 2008. Until then he will remain safely behind bars. Chicago police have a little...

American Marxists are a strange bunch. Along with their hard corps philosophy and today they nearly all hate wearing the label of their Party. It was Senator Joe McCarthy that used a new medium, television to tell America that we had a subversive group inside America invading all of our educational and political institutions. During the McCarthy era, America was in actual war in Korea as a very real Cold War developed between America and the Communist countries of China and Russia. Very simply Socialists hate American freedom and want to destroy it. Communists and Socialists worldwide have a goal to convert America to their failed, brutal and miserable form of government. McCarthy effectively made Communist and Socialist dirty words in America as people began an effective campaign to shun, boycott and expose Americans who became enamored with or converted to Communism. The famous Hollywood Blacklisting was an example. Communists were able to attract some very talented producers, ...

Los Angeles, CA —For the past several days in California the Gay marriage proponents are fighting mad learning about a fight for rights. Voters just passed a ballot provision to outlaw Gay Marriage. I’m no more sympathetic about Gay rights than most Gays are about protecting my gun rights. Rights are rights and worth shedding blood to keep and protect. Do Gays have a right to be married in the legal sense? No, the Constitution had not provided for that. Should they have that right? Yes, if they can get Americans to create that right under our Constitution. Until then it must be a state by state issue. I did not grow up to accept gays or their strange lifestyle. As an adult I learned they are human and more importantly the checks I’ve gotten from Gay clients spend just as fast as the ones I get from my straight clients. Later I learned to tolerate Gays and I have no interest in controlling what they do behind closed doors. Allright, if they're hot looking lesbians I want to...

Washington, DC. –They have them everywhere, memorials to dead politicians. The grandest of them all was that artistic structure at the opposite end of the vast Capitol Mall from the Capitol building. The 16th President and the most divisive one our history caught a lead ball in the brain as he watched a play in Ford’s Theater . The killer was no disturbed whack job but a Southern Patriot exacting revenge for Abraham Lincoln’s reign of terror that killed so many people over a really simple issue. The Southern states simply wanted independence from Lincoln’s political agenda and policies strangling them. There was no need for war, death and destruction. It’s the winners however that write the history books and build memorials like the one they erected for Lincoln. We will all die too soon. Aside from illness and old age, Presidents have around a ten percent chance of becoming statistics based on violent American history. Barack Obama will soon ascend to the Whitehouse disliked m...

Cops everywhere sign on to enforce the law and keep the peace. As a cop you take an oath of office to defend the state and federal Constitutions and to faithfully perform your duties. Your first duty is that of a protector. Arresting people for petty gun violations and confiscating their only protection is counter-productive and in serious conflict with that effort. In many cities there is a serious conflict between the Constitutions and the gun laws passed by politicians. Americans have a right to keep and bear arms and too often politicians simply refuse to accept that and want you to knowingly violate their Civil Rights. It’s time to put the Constitution before politicians and their ignorant whims. No matter if you’re a local cop or an agent with the BATFE simply stop arresting people for vague technical violations and carrying guns for self-protection. Instead concentrate on criminals with guns or those fools introducing guns into arguments, drug dens or involved in other mis...

Los Angeles, CA —As our economy s being flushed down the toilet along with our retirement and 401K plans we look in other directions for our money that's left. Whereever we put our money it is risky these days. Movie investing in considered somewhat risky but people do that and sometimes do it very well. For it to work you need a very trustworthy bean counter that will protect the investors. Not long ago I was chatting with actor James Woods about my own film offering on the life of the late but heroic Chicago Policewoman Ann Leybourne , Come Friday. This amazing story still needs to be told and hit the big screen. Woods told me about former LAPD cop, Joseph Wambaugh’s 1979 film he was in, The Onion Field . Woods played LA cop killer, Gregory Powell . At the time Wambaugh was disillusioned and pissed off at Hollywood after they took one of his better books, The Choirboys and made an unsalable and unwatchable movie mess of it. There were hard feelings at the time and Wambaugh wan...

San Diego is always worthy of a visit. Any excuse to trek to this seaside community is a good one. The International Association of Chiefs of Police is there today and until November 12. Police bosses from all over the world will be attending workshops and seminars on management, public relations and the latest tools used to combat the changing face of crime. I ran into at least one Chicago police boss who said he was not supposed to attend. His identity is safe for now but others will see him. Also here is an exhibit hall loaded with the latest and greatest equipment departments can no longer afford. Also missing was any kind of ideas or methods to deal with a crime wave born of the pending Great Depression of 2008 and forward. If you can make it, do so because it is worth it. Next year the conference will be held in Denver, CO.

That Bolshevik Bastard America has elected has already announced his plans to gut the Second Amendment. This is from the Obama Transaction Team setting the agenda for a War on Gun Owners that they consider “commonsense”: “Address Gun Violence in Cities: As president, Barack Obama would repeal the Tiahrt Amendment, which restricts the ability of local law enforcement to access important gun trace information, and give police officers across the nation the tools they need to solve gun crimes and fight the illegal arms trade. Obama and Biden also favor commonsense measures that respect the Second Amendment rights of gun owners, while keeping guns away from children and from criminals who shouldn't have them. They support closing the gun show loophole and making guns in this country childproof. They also support making the expired federal Assault Weapons Ban permanent, as such weapons belong on foreign battlefields and not on our streets.” This is the same old mild sounding rhetoric t...

The Marxists will soon be in charge as they begin their reign in January. They were elected by a relatively small percentage of America’s population that bothered to vote. New gun bans will be at the top of their lists because guns in the hands of private citizens are a threat to the insatiable Marxist thirst for total control of the population. Obama will install only gun-rights haters to the Supreme Court we can expect to overturn Heller and abolish the Second Amendment. The Marxists will have a majority on the court in short order. The surge of gun buyers is for three reasons, anticipation of a gun ban, a crime wave instigated by the economy and the election of hard corps Bolsheviks to run this country. Marshall Law and suspension of our Constitution may be on the horizon over the economy and resistance by too many Americans as the “change” begins. A second Civil War may well be in the cards for this country.

A police officer in Florida has not made his best career move. He let his guard down and seemed not to notice those video surveillance cameras while “helping” a lady look for her purse. This reminds me of a story before DNA was used as a method to determine ownership of bodily fluids left at various places. A Chicago cop was accused of having sex with a woman in the back seat of his patrol car. IAD was called and began their investigation. They seized the back seat of the officer’s car and sent it to the crime lab to determine what if anything was left on the seat that would substantiate the complaint’s claims. The crime lab came back with proof that a certain substance was left on the seat was in fact sperm! The officer’s career seemed over for sure. Never underestimate the ability of a sharp lawyer! The officer’s lawyer obtained a Subpoena Duces Tecum from the Police Board and got possession of a dozen back seats of patrol cars in the officer’s district. They were sent to anoth...

Our economy is in the toilet and our way of life is in substantial danger. Our country just took and wrong turn in a Marxist direction As we speak our stock market is dropping to zilch and taking all of America’s college funds, and retirement plans into the Phantom Zone. None of us really have a clue about our own futures and that of our children. As our income begins to rapidly shrink more people will resort to crime for survival. As I write this New York City is in preparations to lay off 1000 cops in a metropolis where law-abiding citizens are denied the right to protect themselves with firearms. The illegal drug trade is recession proof because addiction and the crime that feeds it will continue. Addicts will become more desperate and violent to quench their thirst for the hundreds of tons of drugs entering our country every month. The drug lords and government drug czars are the primary recipients of this blood money. It’s time to legalize the possession, sake and manufacture...

Washington, DC--Barack Obama and his new Congress promised us change. Look out here it comes! In 1994 the new congressional majority sandbagged American gun owners with a ban on millions of rifles and pistols they arbitrarily labeled assault weapons based on looks and simple features. They called it the Assault Weapons Ban as they lumped with it their bogus Crime Bill that was nothing but a jobs program and Socialist giveaway. The ban did nothing about crime or violence but snaged a bunch of middle-aged gun collectors on meaningless technicalities. Felony convictions were handed to non-violent gun collectors like candy. After Americans were burned by the Clinton Administration and the Democrat controlled Congress, gun owners put up a political fight ousting a platoon of gun rights-hating lawmakers from the Beltway. 14 years later politicians memories have faded and they will move again to destroy the Second Amendment. The misleading Assault Weapons Ban expired and Heller was d...

Los Angeles, CA —After prosecutor Alan Jackson’s cavalier smear of legendary record producer Phil Spector’s character in his opening Statement Doron Weinberg shot back with a formal motion for a mistrial. Spector is on trial for murder in connection with the death of troubled and drug addicted, 40 year-old Lana Clarkson . The evidence seems to point a self-inflicted gunshot wound and that’s the defense. Judge Larry Paul Fiddler has allowed Jackson to bring in any woman Spector ever employed or bedded in his 68 years to complain about what they now claim happened decades ago. For the most part these women have been thieves, whores or gold diggers. They all seem to have become angry when Spector would not marry them or make them wealthy. None of them were ever injured or killed. Judge Fidler had the discretion not to allow any of them to testify but he did anyway. One of the bimbos was Diane Ogden who since died in a drug overdose in Utah. Judge Fidler has allowed Ogden to testif...
