We start with the Michigan State Police endorsing race-based segregation. Hard to beat that one, right? Well, you see up in Canadialand, an on-duty Mountie went a’poachin’.

‘Clearly a bowtie:’ Child’s drawing confiscated by school officials

A child’s drawing was confiscated by staff at Hanover Horton Schools in Horton, Mich. after it was considered to be “inappropriate.”

At first glance, the doodle looks to be an innocent rendition of a pig, but that’s not what came to mind for school officials, WLNS reported.

“I got a call from my daughter’s teacher saying she had drawn something inappropriate in art class,” Sierra Carter, who has been fighting with Hanover Horton Schools to omit the picture from her daughter’s file, told WLNS. “The teacher looked at it [and] said she had to give it to the principal, to get his thoughts on that. She told me that when she gave it to him and asked him what his thoughts were, he instantly said [to] write her up for it.”

Carter confronted the principal at Hanover Horton about the situation but was then asked, “who is responsible for apologizing to her daughter,” according to WLNS.

Despite the reply, Carter pushed forward, resulting in school officials agreeing to remove the write-up against her daughter.

However, although the write-up was removed, Hanover Horton Schools kept documentation of the incident on file in case Carter’s daughter “did anything else,” WLNS reported.

When asked about the situation, Hanover Horton Superintendent John Denney stated school officials handled the incident with “compassion and discretion,” and didn’t ostracize Carter’s daughter, WLNS reported.

But that wasn’t the case, according to Carter.

After Carter’s 11-year-old daughter expressed that she doesn’t want to go to school, and she’s both anxious and worried about getting in trouble, Carter took to TikTok, hoping to create change by “giving her daughter’s situation more light,” WLNS reported.

In response to the TikTok posted by Carter, Denney called it “unfortunate,” stating that it was a “one-sided narrative that has been created on social media that paints our staff in a negative light,” according to WLNS.

Sheriff’s cadet accused of stealing from cash handling company 9 separate times

Detectives have arrested a cadet of the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office for grand theft.

The sheriff’s office said 25-year-old Darius Barnwell was only on his second day as a cadet in the Sheriff’s Training Academy when detectives were notified of some possible criminal activity he participated in.

According to investigators Barnwell was employed by the cash handling company Loomis, from October 6, 2022 and February 6, 2023. The job required him to deliver money to ATM vendors.

During his time as an employee, detectives said on nine separate locations Barnwell removed an undisclosed sum of money from his delivery, and forced the ATM to balance, keeping it from raising a red flag in the company’s system.

Sheriff’s Chad Chronister made a statement to the public regarding the cadet’s arrest.

“It is extremely disappointing that someone who wanted to serve and protect the community would commit this crime,” said Sheriff Chronister. “No one is above the law. It doesn’t matter if you have been part of HCSO two days, or 20 years.”

Deposit of blood-covered money led to arrest of Atascosa County EMS director

The Atascosa County Emergency Medical Services director has been fired after he admitted to law enforcement investigators that he took money belonging to a man injured in a high-speed chase and later deposited the blood-soaked currency at a bank.

Donald Penny, 55, was arrested last month on a charge of official oppression.

Penny is also under investigation for possibly taking money from an Atascosa County Sheriff’s Office deputy who died in an off-duty crash in December, a probable cause affidavit obtained Wednesday by KSAT shows.

Deputy Sheriff Alan Perez died following a Dec. 9 traffic accident. A female victim, an off-duty Jourdanton police officer, was also seriously injured in the wreck.

She told investigators that Perez had withdrawn $200 prior to the crash and may have left much of the currency in the vehicle’s middle console or other compartment.

An investigation by the Texas Rangers revealed that Penny went to First Commercial Bank in Jourdanton on the day of the fatal accident and “exchanged $121 of bloody money for non-bloody money.”

Penny was seen on surveillance video footage exchanging the money in a microfiber cloth, according to the affidavit.

The bank employee who made the exchange told investigators that Penny said the money was from an accident where the owner never claimed the cash.

During the investigation, Texas Highway Patrol troopers revealed that no money was recovered from the crash scene and that Penny was not with EMS crews who responded to the wreck.

Officials with the medical examiner’s office confirmed that no cash was found on Perez or in his wallet at the time of his death.

According to the affidavit, Atascosa County Sheriff David Soward told investigators Penny had not turned any money over to the county treasurer’s office, which is the protocol for unclaimed property.

During an interview with the Rangers on Dec. 21, Penny admitted to stealing money but said it was from a chase with a sheriff’s office deputy that ended in a wreck.

Penny said the accident occurred 2-3 years ago and that “he thought that since it had been so long then the money was considered abandoned.”

He also said during his interview that he was going to deposit the money into the Atascosa County EMS account used for donations of flowers and other miscellaneous expenses before admitting he kept it and used it to buy groceries for his family.

Penny showed investigators his bank account ledger, which was “in the negative for several hundreds of dollars,” the affidavit states.

“Penny reasoned that he used the money and was going to pay it back later,” the affidavit states.

Atascosa County officials said Tuesday that Penny was terminated during a commissioner’s court meeting on Jan. 23.

Penny was previously suspended with pay on Jan. 9, the same day a warrant was issued for his arrest for official oppression, the Pleasanton Express previously reported.

Official oppression occurs when a public servant acting under the color of his or her office mistreats another person or impedes that person’s rights.

Penny surrendered to the Atascosa County Sheriff’s Office last month after the warrant was issued for his arrest.

Beloved Oakland bakery owner dies after violent robbery, friends say

If you thought the last one was stupid, I got one better for you. A murder victim whose friends say she wouldn’t want her robber/killer brought to justice. You know…for equity and racial justice!

Jen Angel, a beloved local bakery owner and social justice community activist, died on Thursday from injuries she suffered in a violent robbery, according to her close friends. She was 48.

Her friend, Emily Harris, told KRON4, “I’m devastated. Jen has been such a pillar of love and support, a person who brings so many people together in Oakland.”

A statement written by her friends on Thursday night stated, “It is with a heavy heart that we announce that Oakland baker, small business owner, social justice activist, and community member Jen Angel has been medically declared to have lost all brain function, and will not regain consciousness. Her official time of death was 5:48 p.m.”

“Per Jen’s wishes, her organs will be donated, and her committed medical team has informed the family that those organs will serve to lengthen and improve the lives of up to 70 people,” friends wrote.

On Monday, Angel was sitting inside her car behind a bank on Webster Street in Oakland when a thief broke into the car and grabbed her purse. The robber darted into a getaway vehicle that was waiting nearby, police said.

“The victim exited their vehicle and attempted to retrieve their stolen belongings from the individual. While the victim struggled for their belongings, they were knocked to the ground and sustained injuries,” the Oakland Police Department told KRON4.

Angel was dragged by the getaway car. The entire incident happened in broad daylight.

Angel was well known in the Bay Area as a champion of social justice. She was born in 1975 and raised in suburban Cleveland, Ohio.

She founded Angel Cakes in 2008 baking cupcakes, planning weddings, and catering events. In 2016, she opened Angel Cakes bakery on 5th Street inside the historic Gingerbread House.

“Jen makes cupcakes, and Jen makes community. Often those intersect, in her life and in the lives of those who know and love her. Jen has worked hard to build a small business in Oakland, and to do so in a way that treats her employees as full humans, including providing a living wage. She paid herself last. She gave away cupcakes to community groups wherever she went,” said Angel’s friend, Tobias Smith.

She established a social justice event production organization called Aid and Abet. She was also the publisher of Clamor Magazine, a bi-monthly alternative magazine. She was “deeply involved in organizing work for media justice and building a better world,” her friends wrote.

Her friends, loved ones, and community have shown an outpouring of support since Monday. Within less than 48 hours of launching a GoFundMe, over $96,000 has been donated.

Oakland police said no arrests have been made in connection to the deadly robbery.

If a suspect is arrested by police, Angel’s family said she would not want her assailant to be prosecuted in criminal court. Angel did not believe in incarceration as an effective or just solution to social violence and inequity.

Her friends wrote that Angel would want “alternatives to traditional prosecution, such as restorative justice. Jen’s family and close friends ask that the media respect this request and carry forward the story of her life with celebration and clarity about the world she aimed to build. Do not use her legacy of care and community to further inflame narratives of fear, hatred, and vengeance, nor to advance putting public resources into policing, incarceration, or other state violence that perpetuates the cycles of violence that resulted in this tragedy.”

That’s some serious stupid, almost to the degree of Biden, “The View” or “The Squad”!

5JC

That may be a tie but Ms Carter and her pig Wagner have a brilliant future in the USMC.

It is too bad Ms. Angel no longer has a say on the prosecution of her killer. I’d say it’s a good thing as, if ever caught (unlikely), he wouldn’t be free to kill again but this is Oakland so he will probably sign a signature bond, not be seen again for years and then plea out for community service after robbing and hurting and killing more people.

Her problem is that she believed that prison was to reform people. That’s the smaller part of it.

5JC

Donald Penny? That guy gives shitbags a bad name. Stealing blood covered money with the blood of fellow injured first responder is some kind of snake belly shit. Stealing money from the EMS department too? Human fucking garbage.

I’m thinking this might not be legit:

It’s fake. Jesus always signed; “I’ll be back, see ya soon!”

Ah, that’s it! 🙂

I thought it was “I shall return!”…

And where was this Jesus born? Israel? Or Mexico?
And how does he pronounce his name?
Jee-sus? Or Hay-sus?

Anyone who buys this deserves it. The conman is an idiot, but in the land of the blind…

Maybe the MSP should hold a Chili cookoff the “Raise Awareness”. Oh the hue and cry if someone started a “White Male Cops Only” group.

The Mountie should have continued his mission of delivering “Alaska Bob’s” paperwork and not went hunting. Now he’s hunting for a job.

Maybe the budding artist though the bowtie represented the principle.

I despise a thief of any sort.

Too bad Angel is not around to give her opinion as to what should happen to her murderer. Incarceration may not help, but Capital Punishment would insure the dirtbag didn’t kill anybody else.

David

I was thinking the same… Immediate execution would avoid long incarceration and provide justice. Everyone’s happy.

KoB, you and 5JC both said it, she doesn’t get a say. The real irony is, if she really believed in equity she wouldn’t have fought for her belongings and would be alive to earn more for her next donation to a downtrodden, poor victim of this unjust society.

Everyone says you can’t fix stupid, but…

If they still taught science (y’know, things like anatomy and that boys and girls really aren’t the same thing), they’d realize that that kinda thing doesn’t grow out of the Adam’s apple.

Neither that teacher nor her principle will ever be involved in the education of any of my children of whom I know of their existence.

” “It is with a heavy heart that we announce that Oakland baker, small business owner, social justice activist, and community member Jen Angel has been medically declared to have lost all brain function, and will not regain consciousness.”
Given her political views and actions, did she really have any brain function to begin with?

“If a suspect is arrested by police, Angel’s family said she would not want her assailant to be prosecuted in criminal court. Angel did not believe in incarceration as an effective or just solution to social violence and inequity.”

They must smoke and otherwise ingest some really GOOD SHIT to trash their brains and logical thinking to that degree, but hey, they DO live in la-la-land, i just hope that her ilk stay there and do not reproduce!

No, Mr Denney, it’s not social media that’s painting you and your staff in a bad light; it’s just a simple fact that you and your staff are a bunch of gas filled, shit bag, snot otters who have absolutely no reason to be in the education business.
