Veteran Sentenced to Life in Prison for Possessing $30 Worth of Marijuana Will Be Released

Image
Derek Harris is a decorated soldier who gave his life for his nation during Operation Desert Storm. His years of devotion to his nation were meaningless to the state, which sentenced him to life in prison for selling less than a gram of marijuana to an undercover policeman. After more than a decade in prison, Harris has finally received some good news as the drug war draws to an end. Harris was resentenced to time served and will be freed shortly, according to his counsel. Prosecutors in Vermilion Parish decided to release Harris from jail after a fresh hearing granted by the Louisiana Supreme Court last month, according to FOX 59. The Eighth Amendment to the United States Constitution states: Exorbitant bail shall not be needed, excessive fines must not be levied, and cruel and unusual punishments shall not be inflicted. At the PBWW website, we believe that life in prison without the possibility of release for drug trafficking is unjustifiable. Not only is 69 grams of a plant excessiv

Cop opens the porta-potty door, he immediately shoots an unarmed man with his hands up.

This week, a harrowing video of an unarmed man being executed while seated inside a portable toilet was published. Daverion Deauntre Kinard was assassinated on Feb 13 — the day before his 29th birthday — by Fontana officer Johnny Tutiavake. The fact that the city offered a million-dollar settlement for Kinard's death prior to the family filing a complaint demonstrates the shooting's gravity. However, after seeing the body camera video and learning that Kinard spent his last minutes alive with his hands up and surrendering to police prior to his execution, $1 million falls well short of the damages his family should seek. According to authorities, they were on the lookout that night for a burglar. According to investigators, a guy wearing a black hoodie was seen trying to enter an empty house. When officers got on the scene, they discovered an open window and a guy inside wearing a black sweatshirt. “Hey! Hey! “Do not move,” an officer commands as he approaches the guy in a corr

Cops Kill Hero Teen Protecting a Mother and Her Son in Response to a Drive-By Shooting — Lawsuit

Fred Cox, 18, and his family were at the Living Water Baptist Church in November for Jonas Thompson Jr.'s funeral. According to a complaint filed this week, gunfire rang out during the ceremony as a drive-by shooting occurred and Cox went into hero mode. Regrettably, the lawsuit alleges that a police officer on the scene would murder Cox for his act of valor. “Fred is gone for being a hero while Melanin,” Ben Crump, the civil rights attorney representing Cox's family, said at a Wednesday news conference. According to authorities, Cox was a visitor at Thompson's funeral two weeks earlier on November 8, 2020. Davidson County Sheriff's Deputy Michael Shane Hill was also there at the family's request to assist in the investigation of Thompson's murder. He was on hand to speak with prospective witnesses. As a group of individuals went to their vehicles after the funeral, bullets rang out outside the church from a drive-by shooting. Cox allegedly noticed a woman and h

The Federal Government recalls an ambassador after an attack on a Nigerian diplomat by Indonesian authorities.

This occurred when the Federal Government announced the recall of Nigeria's Ambassador to the Asian nation, Usman Ogar, in the aftermath of the heinous event. The ambassador, who seemed to be in agony as Indonesian immigration officials forced his head to the seat of a vehicle, was heard screaming, "I can't breathe." Geoffrey Onyeama, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, who announced Ogar's return for discussions at a news conference in Abuja on Tuesday, also said that the government will examine Nigeria's bilateral ties with the Asian nation. Former diplomats chastise Indonesia Ogbole Amedu-Odeh, a former Nigerian Ambassador to Mexico, characterized the assault as a breach of the Vienna Convention, adding that it was too early to determine the FG's reciprocal response. He stated, "The (Foreign Affairs) minister has already come out firing from the hip; thus, the Indonesians are aware that they must take appropriate action because what their officials ha

An innocent father and son, as well as a realtor, were held at gunpoint and handcuffed while house hunting.

A father and son, together with their realtor, recently discovered one of the many difficulties associated with living in a “see something, say something” culture. Roy Thorne and his son were held at gunpoint, arrested, and imprisoned despite the fact that they committed no crime, all because a neighbor informed police they were breaking into the house. Last Sunday, while showing Thorne a property in Wyoming, cops came on the site with pistols drawn and ordered them out. PBWW website has previously reported on many cases similar to this one in which innocent individuals engaged in lawful activities were assaulted, shot, and even murdered in similar circumstances. Fortunately, Thorne and his son were not murdered; but, as seen in the video below, a single incorrect move might have swiftly gone sour. As the video demonstrates, cops arrived in a tactical manner, brandishing weapons and screaming at the residents to leave the house. Despite full cooperation, the police maintained firearms

Nigeria has been accused of conducting a 'ruthless' campaign in the restive southeast.

Image
Amnesty International has accused Nigerian security forces of using excessive force and murdering at least 115 people earlier this year during a "repressive campaign" against separatist agitators in the restive southeast of the country.  This year, violence has erupted in the southeastern states, with at least 127 police officers or members of the security services being killed, according to the police. According to local media reports, about 20 police stations and electoral commission offices have been assaulted. IPOB, a banned organization seeking independence for the region's ethnic Igbo, and its armed branch Eastern Security Network (ESN) has been accused of the violence, although IPOB has rejected the accusations. According to Amnesty, security forces, including the military, police, and the Department of State Services (DSS) intelligence agency, have murdered scores of gunmen and civilians in the areas where assaults occurred. “Amnesty International's findings p

Cop Throws Innocent Disabled Man to the Ground and Stomps on His Head for Not Moving Quickly Enough

Image
Clarence Gailyard, 58, a handicapped man, discovered this the hard way this week when he was assaulted by police for just strolling down the street. On July 26, Gailyard and a buddy were walking through his neighborhood when Orangeburg police officer David Dukes approached them, claiming to be responding to a report about a guy with a pistol. Without informing them of his reason for stopping them, Dukes drew his pistol and ordered the two guys to the ground at gunpoint. Despite the fact that they had committed no wrong, neither guy objected, and they both quickly obeyed. Gailyard has several pins and rods in his leg as a result of the surgery he had after a vehicle accident. As a consequence of his injuries, he often uses a cane and is sluggish. While he was following the jackboot's commands, his injuries made it impossible for him to swiftly fall to the ground. Officer Dukes was enraged by Gailyard's sluggish motions and began to accelerate his activities by pounding his head
