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.”

Also to note - Missouri is open carry without a permit needed so nothing anybody can do about seeing somebody armed if they are not doing anything at the time and there is no way to screen that many people into an area. I can't believe it hadn't happened before here with the other parades that bring out hundreds of thousands.

It says he's 24. Far enough removed from the teen years to be old enough to make far better decisions. Also old enough for this to not be his first time doing this.

Key witness in Holly Bobo murder trial says his testimony was a lie, court documents show

Zachary Adams wants his murder conviction thrown out based on Jason Autry's latest statements about the Holly Bobo case.
www.cbsnews.com www.cbsnews.com

February 28, 2024 / 7:08 AM EST / CBS/AP



As the star witness in the Holly Bobo murder trial, Jason Autry spoke in a calm, deliberative manner as an attentive jury listened to him recreate the day the kidnapped Tennessee nursing student was wrapped in a blanket, placed in the back of a pickup truck, driven to a river and shot to death by his friend.

Autry wore a white jail uniform and made a point of putting on eyeglasses as he looked at rural maps during his hourslong testimony in the killing of Bobo, a 20-year-old woman who disappeared from her home in 2011. Bobo's remains were found more than three years after a massive search of woods, fields and farms.

A convicted felon facing serious charges in the case, Autry gave graphic testimony against his friend Zachary Adams, including details about drug use and Bobo's kidnapping, rape and slaying. Autry told the jury he served as a lookout as Adams shot Bobo under a bridge near a river.

"It sounded like, boom, boom, boom, underneath that bridge. It was just one shot but it echoed," Autry testified. "Birds went everywhere, all up under that bridge. Then just dead silence for just a second."

Praised by the trial judge who called his testimony credible, Autry's story helped seal the fate of Adams, who was convicted at the 2017 trial and sentenced to life in prison plus 50 years. More than six years later, court records show Autry's taking it all back and recanting his testimony, saying he made up the story to avoid spending life in prison.

Autry's reversal was revealed in two petitions, obtained by CBS affiliate WREG-TV, seeking post-conviction relief filed by Adams' lawyer in Hardin County, where the trial took place. Adams, 39, wants his conviction thrown out based on Autry's latest statements about the case that grabbed national headlines and frightened residents of Bobo's quiet west Tennessee hometown of Parsons, about 120 miles east of Memphis.

Attorneys say Autry's truthful testimony also provides the necessary alibi for Adams, WREG reported.

"The record will ultimately acquit Mr. Adams based on Mr. Jason Autry's complete and total recantation," one of the petitions says.

Dulos is on jury watch, jury asked to rewatch a defense witness and took notes.

Fair amount of chatter in Delphi and RL incident report out, and cat hair talk

Shanna Gardner case has news, don't think that one is on here.

Kohberger hearing and news and discussion out there.

Just what I've seen tonight, haven't been able t watch all of course.

The 24 year old POS above sounds like someone who may have done such before or would again.

The Bobo defendants are making new waves? :thud:
 
well at least ickedmel is saying it. defendant oh i'm not in the mood today to go to court so I'm not. Then he says something about some new thing where it is all right to steal up to a certain amount and I have no idea what that is about. talks about how ridiculous defendant rights have gotten and how they control, not the court and so on.

Madeline Soto's likely killer just didn't feel like going to court Adam Montgomery never had to show at his own trial or verdict. There was another one or two and this is all just RECENT and judges are not making them.

What is worse is the number of people who don't care as all contnues to slide. I will likely be dead in 20 years if not before but I'd love to come back and see how that ambivalency worked and how the same people feel well after the fact and the continual downhill slide.
 
Like all of us I can get enured and numb watching too much but thank God I can still get angered and am not that numb or insular or bubbled. A heck of a lot of people in this world are. Or maybe they are just skeered to have an opinion and state it.
