And so a week later the media begins to look into the troubled back story of Keith Lamont Scott, the man killed by police during a highly publicized armed encounter in Charlotte North Carolina which led to four days of riots and social unrest.
What do they find:
Charlotte […] Records show briefly last year, Scott’s wife took out a restraining order against him.
“He hit my 8 year old in the head a total of three times with is [sic] fist….He kicked me and threaten [sic] to kill us last night with his gun. He said he is a ‘killer’ and we should know that,” she wrote on the form last October.
The union behind the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has stepped into the breech and announced their endorsement for Donald Trump for president.
NEW YORK, NY – Today, the National Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Council, the official union representing 5,000 federal immigration officers and law enforcement support staff made their first-ever endorsement of any candidate for any elected office. ICE officers are responsible for interior enforcement of immigration laws within the United States. The President of the National ICE Council, Chris Crane, issued the following statement on the union’s endorsement of Donald J. Trump:
“The men and women of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) are the last line of defense for American communities. Our 5,000 officers, underfunded and undermanned, are responsible for enforcing immigration laws in a nation of 320 million people. Our officers come into daily contact with many of the most dangerous people in the world – cartel members, gang members, weapons traffickers, murder suspects, drug dealers, suspects of violent assault – yet ICE Officers are unable to arrest or are forced to release many of the most dangerous back into U.S. communities due to unscrupulous political agendas and corrupt leaders.
On the second day of the protests turned riots in Charlotte North Carolina one of the protesting crowd was shot in the head and killed. Initially the grievance community sought to blame the police or national guard who were responding for riot control. However, today the shooter confessed…
(Via Charlotte Observer) Rayquan Borum, the man charged with murder in a Wednesday night shooting during uptown protests over the police killing of Keith Scott, confessed to the shooting, a prosecutor said in court Monday.
Borum is charged in the death of 26-year-old Justin Carr, who was fatally shot during protests in uptown on Wednesday night.
Police said they found Carr with a gunshot wound in the 100 block of East Trade Street at about 8:30 p.m. Wednesday. Carr was shot in the head, Observer news partner WBTV reported, citing a police report. (more…)
Last evening Fox News host Bret Baier interviewed Congressman Trey Gowdy about the Friday document dump from the FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton’s email system. The response from Chairman Gowdy is essentially the same reaction as everyone else who has a reasonable understanding of the events.
The most concerning aspect within all recent discussions is an acceptance we must all reach that the FBI Director James Comey specifically knew the DOJ (Loretta Lynch) was not going to prosecute anyone involved in the scandal from the outset.
With the knowledge in mind that his FBI investigation needed to structurally come to a conclusion, which would be conducive to dove-tailing the preconceived DOJ intent, the Comey investigation began handing out the DOJ’s mutually beneficial immunity agreements. This FBI action essentially guaranteed Secretary Clinton would be immune from DOJ prosecution.
The conclusion reached by Representative Gowdy is almost identical to the conclusions drawn by our own research, and by the Observer yesterday, and by the Thompson Timeline report last week. The FBI investigation was a sham. (more…)

Police released information earlier today that Keith Scott’s fingerprints and DNA were on the hand gun, seen in eye witness reports and retrieved from the shooting. This news apparently spurred the family of Keith Scott to attempt recovery of their narrative.
CHARLOTTE — The family of Keith Lamont Scott has released what it says is cell phone video, recorded by his wife, that shows the moments leading up to his fatal shooting by police Tuesday.
“Don’t shoot him. He has no weapon,” the woman recording can be heard saying. “He doesn’t have a gun. He has a TBI. He’s not going to do anything to you guys. He just took his medicine.”
She goes on to say: “Keith, don’t let them break the windows; come on out the car. Keith! Don’t do it. Keith, get out the car. Keith! Keith, don’t you do it. Don’t you do it. Keith! Keith! Keith!”. (read more)
