Brief News Briefs

I’m in the middle of some new “training” for the next few days, which is keeping me away from my computer and blogability. This is SO frustrating.


Just use your imagination…Another kid was killed in an another drive by in the same neighborhood where someone else was killed recently. (Namely, Gangland, U.S.A.) Bruce Sons is STILL on trial for killing that cop, and if you thought the temperature was hot before – you better look out cuz this it’s about to get a lot hotter out there. Ugh. This must be our punishment for having such nice weather in June.

One news story that does stand out lately is all about the pretty, smart, popular ex-cheerleader, soon to be college co-ed, who died after driving off the bluffs recently. Grizzly. Actually, her boyfriend was driving, and he survived. Unfortunately, Yvonne Burch was not so lucky. Police are still investigating the cause of the accident.

Oh yeah, and remember how the D.A.’s office spent ALL that money to find and capture Jeremy Sons? Well it turns out he don’t know nuttin’. (Shocking.) Jeremy claims he has no memory of the gun battle that happened right in front of his eyes and for which he spent tens years in jail. (Boy, that’s strange, cuz I wasn’t even there and I remember it like it was yesterday.) Of course his lack of memory didn’t persuade a local judge to release him. He ordered him to stay in jail for the next two months so he can testify at his ex-step father’s trial. (Ex-step father…that sounds like a very close relationship, doesn’t it?) Let’s see…Jeremy served his time, was released, then hunted down like a dog, and now locked up, all so he can continue to be a hostile witness and provide no new information. It’s brilliant!!

Too bad they can't just make stuff up like they did in the first trial.
