ONGOING CRIME BREAKING NEWS!

Starting in January 2020, this thread is about the news as it breaks!


Bernard Madoff says he is dying and is asking a judge for compassionate release from prison, where he is serving 150 years for orchestrating the largest Ponzi scheme in history, according to a Wednesday federal court filing.

Madoff, 81, has terminal kidney failure and a life expectancy of less than 18 months. When the court sentenced him, “it was clear that Madoff’s 150-year prison sentence was symbolic for three reasons: retribution, deterrence, and for the victims,” the court filing states. “This Court must now consider whether keeping Madoff incarcerated … is truly in furtherance of statutory sentencing goals and our society’s value and understanding of compassion.”

Madoff said in the request for compassionate release that he “does not dispute the severity of his crimes.”


IMO- stay in jail

Detroit neighbors say 3-year-old boy found dead in freezer was blind; family called CPS 13 times this year​

The 3-year-old boy who was found dead in a freezer in Detroit early Friday morning was blind, neighbors say, and the boy's family said Child Protective Services had been called 13 times this year.

The young boy, who police have not identified but neighbors and family members confirm to FOX 2 is named Chase, was found dead in a freezer inside the family's home.

"She (the mother) couldn't deal with it, and we all said give him to us if you can't deal with it," a relative said.

Family members also told FOX 2's Jessica Dupnack that CPS had been called at least 13 times this year but each time, they were unable to make headway and were not allowed inside the home.

White held a press conference Friday afternoon and credited the first two officers to arrive at the home for following their instinct.

"The discovery would not be possible without the officers' intuition. They recognized there was something not right in the way the occupant was communicating with them," White said.

After talking with people at the home, White said they tried to turn the officers away. However, they followed their instinct and called in a supervisor and Child Protective Services (CPS).

In the basement of the home, inside a freezer, White said the boy's body was found decomposing.

Neighbors said the boy had not been seen since at least March.

"First she said he was in the hospital, and she gave him away, and then she said a couple had him – just too many stories not making sense," the relative said.

The mother of the child, who was not identified, is the 30-year-old woman who was arrested, police confirmed.
I don't understand why she didn't give him to the relative. Murder is better?. She even lied she gave him away.
 

Update: Accused Bully’s Mom Says Severely-Burned Boy’s Family Fabricated Story To Get $600K in Donations​

The mother of an 8-year-old Connecticut boy who was accused of intentionally lighting a younger child on fire in April not only denied those allegations but admonished the other child’s family for using the incident for financial gain.

Laura Giacobbe, 45, told the Daily Mail that the injured child, Dominick Krankall, had lit some gas on the ground on fire in their shared backyard. She also alleged that all of the children were lighting objects on fire when Krankall turned his back.

“Me and my brother and his brother told him not to step on it [a cup on fire]. He ran over and jumped on it and stomped on it and it exploded,” said Giacobbe’s 8-year-old son, who Krankall’s family accused of burning the younger boy in a bullying incident.
