A New York City teenager, who was caught on camera allegedly mugging a 60-year-old man – who later died – of $1 dollar on Christmas Eve, has been arrested, police said.
Abu Conteh, 18, of the Bronx, was arrested Tuesday morning, just days after the brutal overnight assault, the New York Post reported.
Juan Fresnda, 60, died three days after the $1 robbery outside a McDonald's in the Bronx. He was trying to protect his boyfriend

And yet again.
Two female attackers yelled “F— you Jew” and “I will kill you Jews” at a Brooklyn man before shoving him to the ground when he tried to film their anti-Semitic screed, law enforcement sources and witnesses said Wednesday.
The two African American women approached the 22-year-old Hasidic victim in Broadway Triangle where they began taunting him with anti-Semitic slurs, the law enforcement source said.
The first woman began yelling at the victim before the second woman grabbed his cell phone, broke it in half and threw it to the ground, the source said.

There are a few humanists, e.g. Pinker and Harris, that seem to begin to see the monster the left is breeding. Some, like Dawkins, can't (and get bitten by TDS). |

When will we ever learn?
The Chinese government may be behind the alleged theft of biological material used in cancer research from a Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center lab by a 29-year-old visiting graduate student at Harvard University, prosecutors have said.
Zaosong Zheng was stopped at Boston Logan International Airport on Dec. 9, where federal agents determined him to be a “high risk for possibly exporting undeclared biological material” after finding 21 vials of brown liquid with typed and handwritten notes wrapped in a plastic bag inside a sock in his checked luggage, according to an affidavit written by FBI Special Agent Kara Spice.

I thought lying to federal agents was a crime?
Former FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe faced scorching criticism and potential criminal prosecution for changing his story about a conversation he had with a Wall Street Journal reporter. Now newly released interview transcripts show McCabe expressed remorse to internal FBI investigators when they pressed him on the about-face.
The FBI released the documents in response to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit by the government watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW). They provide fresh details about the investigation into a leak to the Journal, McCabe's role in it, and the reaction of agents who investigated it
In the final weeks of the 2016 presidential campaign, the Journal broke news about an FBI investigation involving then-candidate Hillary Clinton, describing internal discussions among senior FBI officials.
The apparent leak drew scrutiny from the bureau’s internal investigation team, which interviewed McCabe on May 9, 2017, the day President Donald Trump fired James Comey from his post as FBI director. The agents interviewed him as part of an investigation regarding a different media leak to the online publication Circa, and also asked him about the Journal story.
In that interview, McCabe said he did not know how the Journal story came to be. But a few months later, his story changed after he reviewed his answer.
On Aug. 18, FBI officials met with McCabe in an attempt to work through what they said was “conflicting information” they had gathered about the possible leak to the Journal.
“I need to know from you,” an agent said he told McCabe in a sit-down meeting, “did you authorize this article? Were you aware of it? Did you authorize it?”
McCabe then looked at the story he had reviewed months earlier.
The FBI investigator described his response this way: “And as nice as could be, he said, yep. Yep I did.”
The investigator then said that “things had suddenly changed 180 degrees with this.” The interviewers stopped taking notes on what McCabe was saying, and the agent indicated their view of McCabe had changed: He was no longer a witness or victim. “In our business, we stop and say, look, now we’re getting into an area for due process,” the agent said.
But the agent said that the team did not raise that line of thought with McCabe. “I was very careful to say… with all due respect, this is what you told us. This has caused us some kind of, you know, sidetracking here now with some information other people have told us.”
The agent’s next comments to McCabe took on a frustrated tone.
“I remember saying to him, at, I said, sir, you understand that we’ve put a lot of work into this based on what you told us,” the agent said. “I mean, and I even said, long nights and weekends working on this, trying to find out who amongst your ranks of trusted people would, would do something like that. And he kind of just looked down, kind of nodded, and said yeah I’m sorry.”
McCabe’s lawyer has said his story changed because in the initial interview he wasn’t prepared for the question. The question surprised him, and he didn’t give his answer a second thought because Comey was fired shortly after the interview concluded and his world turned upside down

A federal judge temporarily blocked Assembly Bill 5 (AB5) enforcement for the trucking industry by granting a restraining order in a case filed by the California Trucking Association (CTA) Tuesday.
In the case, the lawyers for the CTA argued AB5 is preempted by the Federal Aviation Administration Authorization Act (FAAAA) of 1994 and they'd be at risk of government enforcement actions if the law took effect. This led U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez to grant the restraining order, writing the state is "temporarily enjoined from enforcing [AB5] as to any motor carrier operating in California, pending this Court’s resolution of Plaintiffs’ motion for a preliminary injunction."
Benitez released his decision Dec. 31, the day before AB5 was set to take effect. The restraining order will be in effect until the court decides on the preliminary injunction case. A hearing is set for Jan. 13.
Stakeholders in the trucking industry expressed significant confusion in interviews with Supply Chain Dive in the weeks leading up to the court decision, saying they had received little guidance on how to comply with AB5.
AB5 author Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez, D-San Diego, said in a statement provided to multiple media outlets that the legislation is meant to fight misclassification in the trucking industry that has taken advantage of labor, stripping drivers of their deserved pay and rest periods.
"We expect [trucking companies] will continue to invest resources in protecting their profits earned on the backs of workers, but we will continue to fight them at all levels to return jobs in the trucking industry to good, middle-class careers," Gonzalez wrote.
Plenty of lawsuits point to the kind of environment Gonzalez referenced. XPO, FedEx, Knight-Swift and other large national carriers have been involved in cases wherein they were accused of classifying a worker as a contractor rather than an employee and thus avoiding obligations like paying the minimum wage, overtime and providing meal breaks.
Still, many independent owner-operators have spoken out in the wake of AB5's passage to say they have no desire to work for a carrier full time, but rather want to maintain the status quo that allows them to work for multiple carriers and create their own schedules. Some protested the legislation in recent weeks, asking for an exemption.
"This law is bad because we're going to be forced to be employees when we can grow as a small business," Eduardo Rangel, a truck owner-operator, told KPIX.

Las Vegas police have arrested a suspect accused of brutally kidnapping a woman who was caught on surveillance video banging on a door and screaming for help, according to a report. Darnell Rodgers, 23, was collared about 3 a.m. Thursday and charged with kidnapping and domestic battery, according to the Las Vegas Sun. Detectives used tips from the public to locate the victim and identify Rodgers, police said. The woman was captured in horrifying doorbell camera footage pounding on the door Wednesday and pleading for help before the suspect is seen rushing up, kicking her and hauling her off by the hair. She pleaded, “Stop, stop, stop! Please!” She also was heard uttering his first name during the scary incident. The man responded, “You always (expletive) do that! Get in the car!” Police said the woman was found safe.  |

Listen to the left. They will tell you where they stand if you allow them.
Rose McGowan is being lambasted for walking back a public apology she made to Iran in early tweets on Friday, reacting to President Trump's order of the airstrike that killed Iran's top general, Qassem Soleimani, that left many folks believing she was out of her gourd.
"Dear #Iran, The USA has disrespected your country, your flag, your people. 52% of us humbly apologize. We want peace with your nation. We are being held hostage by a terrorist regime. We do not know how to escape. Please do not kill us. #Soleimani," she tweeted at around 1 a.m. on Friday.
