Monday morning feel good stories

| August 21, 2017

I know we already talked about this one in Chicago where a homeowner shot three intruders. But they’ve identified the perps and I wanted to play Name Scrabble;

Celeste “CeCe” Cockriel and her cousins, Narcisco “Kiko” Ledesma and Antonio “AJ” Lopez, were fatally shot at a home in the East Side neighborhood on the Far South Side Sunday. The homeowner who shot them claims they were breaking in and the shootings were in self-defense.

From Albuquerque, New Mexico;

Angelo Martinez, 21, was seen hanging around a community center in Albuquerque on Aug. 11, when a group of men were playing football. As the men returned to their car, Martinez asked them for a ride. They obliged, but as they pulled up to an address Martinez provided, he pulled out a gun and demanded they give up the car, KOAT reported.

The men exited the vehicle but as Martinez tried to take control of the car, he dropped the gun and one of the men reached in and punched Martinez in the face. The other men joined in, and were able to restrain Martinez, KOAT reported. The men told police they found a knife and a fake gun on Martinez.

From Port Barre, Louisiana;

The suspect apparently crashed his vehicle in that area, and when it proved undriveable, he invaded a nearby home and kidnapped a man, forcing the man to drive him east on U.S. 190. Near Livonia, the two got into an argument, and the suspect shot at his victim, shooting out the truck’s window but missing the man. They pulled over at a convenience store, where the suspect allegedly went inside and robbed a clerk. He shot at the clerk, too, but again he missed, Joffrion said.

Police arrived at the store, and the man shot at them, again missing, and ran into a nearby neighborhood, where he again invaded a home, Joffrion said. This time he tried to sexually assault two women there, but a man hit him in the head and held him for police,

Number 3 was an overachiever and a lousy shot! Three shots, two probably fairly and three misses. So, Car theft, kidnapping, attempted murder, assault and battery, armed robbery, braking and entering and attempted rape.

How the hell do you miss someone across a truck?

“punched Martinez in the face”

Guy looks like he’s from Roswell

MWAHAHAHAAAAA!

Lobogris

Yep.

No kidding, right?

Looks like something escaped out of Area 51.

Roswell … bwhaaaaaa

Now THAT’S the kind of beat down I like to see on a well deserved perp. Not like that white dude who looked like he barely got a scratch on him, this one looks “rode hard and put away wet”. Which is how I expect he’ll be treated at The Gray Bar Resort, by the partnership of Tiny, Biggy, Thor, and Dr Julio.

Bernath will not be having his “special day”, today, as had been scheduled. Seems like his attorney was unavailable so the adjudication has been rescheduled for September 29th.

Danni-boi is running out of devices and artifices to prolong the administration of justice.

Seems like his birthday is right around that time of the year, too. September and October have not been this scumbags better months.

Ah well, Columbus Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day all have openings available in the County Jail for a no-airplane-flying honorary chief asshole.

Name scrabble:

Celeste is a real name, but CeCe – not a good choice

Narcisco? Winner!!! Meaning: Cisco: baby boy. Ledesma: Meaning: Spanish: habitational name from any of the places called Ledesma, in the provinces of Logroño, Salamanca, and Soria. The place name is ancient and probably derives from a superlative form of a Celtic adjective meaning ‘broad’, ‘wide’. Occupation: 45% of the people with that name work in cigar factories.

Charming people, all of them.

Ex, how do you know all that shite?
You’re like a walking encyclopedia or something. 😉

Lotsa googling, lotsa super good references online for things like archaic terms that no one uses any more.

Martinez looks pretty good there. I approve of his new features he’s sporting.

I’m trying to figure out why the Louisiana perp is still alive.

All of the perps are “good, churchgoing kids” that are “pillars of their community”, right?

They dindu nuffin.

Sounds like the Chicago ‘East Side Story’ isn’t in its final act yet…

“A police source said the 31-year-old, who has a valid Firearm Owner’s Identification card, claimed he shot the three after they broke into his home.

“We have noticed inconsistencies in his story … we’re pressing pretty hard,” police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said of investigators who were interrogating the man.”

Deplorable B Woodman

What? Like he had a valid FOID AND a weapon, at the same time? Mighty suspicious to me.

The original story ( which is usually found to be wrong) was reported that there was a party and these 3 uninvited persons showed upand attempted a robbery

Sorry for being late to the party. Had a go-around with a 24-36 hour stomach flu bug starting Sunday night and didn’t get on the computer all day yesterday.

As per Jonn’s request for Name Scrabble (Home Version) scores, here you are:

Celeste “CeCe” Cockriel (DRT) 33×3= 99

Narcisco “Kiko” Ladesma (DRT) 34×3= 102

Antonio “AJ” Lopez (DRT) 32×3= 96
