March for Peace By Rev. Don Abernathy

After enjoying good food during the holidays, a long walk is a great way to start 2014. Saturday, January 4, was a beautiful day when good people from all around Los Angeles County met at Bethel Church in Watts for a Peace March through the community. Emotions of hope ran high as different speakers addressed the growing crowd preparing for the march. I was honored to be invited to speak to the crowd and march with seasoned peace activists and concerned citizens. Attention! News attends crime scenes, candlelight vigils to remember the fallen souls, meetings of violence support groups and speaks with heart broken families that have been hurt by crime and violence. Through these involvements I’ve generated conclusions when it comes to crime that contradicts common excuses I hear from the general public.

Excuse: Crime and violence are due to a lack of jobs. Based on the arrest reports I see

every day from across the county, many criminals are gainfully employed but still choose to commit crimes. Conclusion: Crime and violence are not just a lack of jobs issue.

Excuse: Crime and violence are gang issues. While a lot of gang members are criminals, all criminals are not gang members. Conclusion: Crime and violence are not just a gang issue.

Excuse: Crime and violence are only in the bad neighborhoods. Criminals don’t use Google maps, MapQuest or Thomas Guides to know where they should or shouldn’t commit crimes. Conclusion: Crime and violence happen where criminals think they can get away with the crime, or the opportunity arises.

Excuse: Crime and violence mainly only affects “that” race or color. Criminals primarily don’t choose houses, cars or business to rob based on the race or color of the owner. Bullets don’t change direction because the recipient is the wrong race or color? Bullets are color blind, don’t discriminate and hit anyone in their path regardless of age, ethnicity, financial status or guilt. Conclusion: We are all part of the human race and deserve to be treated with respect. Only 2 colors should matter when discussing violence and crime;

red for the blood that needlessly flows from our injured loved ones and clear for the tears that are shed by victims, their families and loved ones. So what is the issue with crime and violence? Very simply, crime and violence are a humanity issue. There is something wrong with an individual person that thinks it is okay to violate, rob or murder another human being. That single person needs to be held accountable for their actions; not any other group. The solution is simple but extremely difficult. Fight fire with fire! Criminals have scared citizens into our homes and took one street, one block, one neighborhood, and one city at a time. Now they’ve over run our jail system so IF they are caught committing a crime, they only serve a very small portion of their time before being sent back to the streets. Our current penalty program and jail system is drastically flawed, getting worse and we are feeling the effects. Citizens should not focus on the big picture of county or the state but focus on the small picture. Everyone needs to focus on their home and their side of the street. Be a positive role model for your children. Work with your immediate neighbors and the good police to keep your home and your side of the street safe. Together, as a color blind community, we can take back our streets, our neighborhoods and our communities so they will be safe for us and our children. Please let us know of any Peace Marches in your neighborhood so we can attend.

2,268+ Holiday DUI Arrests in Los Angeles County By Rev. Don Abernathy

The Los Angeles Sherriff Department released DUI statistics for the 19 day period around the holidays. From 12:01 AM Friday December 13, 2013 through midnight Wednesday, January 1, 2014 officers representing 100 county law enforcement agencies have arrested 2,268 individuals for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. In 2012, 2,168 DUI arrests were made during the same 19 day time period. Not only have the arrest numbers gone up, but their report has a disturbing footnote: (**NOTE: These numbers are only provisional with some agencies yet to report**). This means the numbers of actual arrests are even higher. In 2011, nearly 10,000 people were killed nationally in motor vehicle traffic crashes that involved at least one driver or motorcycle rider with a

blood alcohol concentration of .08% or higher. In California, this deadly crime led to 774 deaths because someone failed to designate a sober driver. Since we all know that every drunk driver is not caught and arrested, the increased amount of arrests during the holiday is warning that ALL DRIVERS NEED TO BE AWARE! Checkpoints were set up all around the county to identify drunk drivers. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), checkpoints have provided the most effective documented results of any of the DUI enforcement strategies, while also yielding considerable cost savings of $6 for every $1 spent. Based on collision statistics and frequency of DUI arrests, DUI Checkpoints are placed in locations that have the greatest opportunity for achieving drunk and drugged driving

deterrence. Locations are chosen with safety considerations for the officers and the public. The next time you drive through a DUI checkpoint, instead of complaining about the delay and bright lights in your eyes, roll down your window and thank the officers for protecting you your family by getting drunk drivers off the road.

The penalty for 1st offense DUI in Los Angeles County is: • Jail time of up to 48 hours or post $5,000 bail to get out of jail early. (This has basically been eliminated in Los Angeles County for 1st offenders due to overcrowding and AB109. Most 1st offenders are released without posting bail on their promise to show up in court. This has cost the bail industry and the financially strapped court system millions of dollars annually in revenue since both industries made a small percentage of the bail amount.) • Depending on your city, as much as a $10,000 fine including the base fine and the additional court costs. • 3, 6 or 9 months of DUI classes at privately ran facility and at the drivers expense • Increased insurance rates for being a DUI High-risk 7 – 10 years

This year I will lose weight, I will get out of debt, I will stop smoking, I will spend more quality time with friends and family, I will get a better job or just

get a job, I will organize my house, I will clean out the attic or garage, I will join a gym, I will volunteer, etc. All of these have merit and should be done throughout the year but unfortunately they aren’t which is why they are popular New Year’s Resolutions.

So how popular and successful are our resolutions? Depending on which set of statistics you chose to believe, approximately 40-50% of US citizens make New Year’s Resolutions with about 80% being effective the first couple of weeks. But sadly the numbers start dropping quickly with less than 10% actually reaching their goal. After talking with friends, strangers in chat rooms and reading “scientific evidence” published on the web, I’ve come to my own conclusions.

the way the previous year ended, some people like to set goals and feel good about reaching them while other just don’t want to be the one person standing by the water cooler without a resolution so they make one up. No matter what your reason, the important thing about resolutions is the example we are setting for our youth. We teach our children to set goals and work to reach them. What kind of a message are we sending when we promote the fact that 50% of Americans set goals every year with only a small percentage reaching them?

Some people make resolutions because they are unhappy or frustrated with

Imprisoned Sex Offender Sentenced to 10 More Years in Prison for New Online Child Abuse Offense BOISE—Jeremy E. Durkin, 35, of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, was sentenced December 17, 2013 to 120 months in federal prison, with credit for time served, for use of a facility of interstate commerce to transmit information about a minor, with the intent to entice the victim into criminal sexual activity, U.S. Attorney Wendy J. Olson announced. U.S. District Judge Edward J. Lodge also ordered Durkin to serve 10 years of supervised release following his release from prison. Durkin pleaded guilty on September 19, 2013. According to the plea agreement, the matter came to the attention of law enforcement on September 23, 2010, when, during routine cell search at the Idaho State Correctional Institution, a corrections officer found a letter on Durkin’s bunk that referenced a Yahoo e-mail account. The letter, written by Durkin, referred to the intended recipient as “you sexy sixteen-yearold.” In the letter, Durkin is asking someone he referred to in the greeting as “my Love” to keep his (Durkin’s) Yahoo e-mail account active by logging on to it once a month and deleting all incoming mail. The letter further states, “This way I wont loose [sic] all the photos have up

there. I don’t really want to ask anybody else cuz there is naked photos of you that I don’t want anybody to see.” Department of Corrections officials referred the matter to the FBI. The FBI identified the victim as a high school student in Oregon. When interviewed, the youth told agents that Durkin initiated contact with him in December 2009 on Facebook. The victim further stated that Durkin (whom the victim did not know prior to that time) persuaded him to call a telephone number in Idaho. The two spoke telephonically and “hit it off,” according to the youth. Durkin initially gave the youth a false name, but not long after they met online, he gave the youth his true name. According to the victim, Durkin knew the victim was 15 years old at the time. According to the plea agreement, from December 2009 until the summer 2010, Durkin was in constant contact with the victim via e-mail, telephone, and U.S. mail. The youth described their relationship as being almost immediately romantic and sexual and said they exchanged sexually explicit photos. A search of Durkin’s Yahoo! account confirmed these allegations. The two never met in person. Their

relationship was entirely via Facebook, telephone, e-mail, and U.S. mail. Durkin is a previously convicted sex offender. In 2005, Durkin pleaded guilty in Kootenai County, Idaho, to one count of lewd conduct with a child under age 16. He was on parole at the time the incidents occurred that resulted in the federal charge. Durkin’s parole was revoked in the summer 2010, and he was returned to prison. He is currently serving his sentence on the Kootenai County case at the Idaho Department of Correction and is scheduled for release in 2016. The charge of use of a facility of interstate commerce to transmit information about a minor, with the intent to entice the victim into criminal sexual activity, when committed by a person with a prior sex offense conviction, is punishable by up to 10 years in prison, a maximum fine of $250,000, and up to lifetime supervised release. The Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Idaho Department of Correction investigated the case. Both agencies are members of the Idaho

Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force, a statewide coalition of local, state, and federal law enforcement and prosecution agencies focused on apprehending and prosecuting individuals who use the Internet to criminally exploit children. For more information about the Idaho ICAC Task Force and a list of all the participating agencies, visit www.icacidaho.org. This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse. Led by the United States Attorneys’ Offices and the Criminal Division’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who sexually exploit children and to identify and rescue victims.

$50,000 REWARD

Councilwoman Jan Perry and Los Angeles City Council have offered a $50,000 reward for information leading to arrest and conviction of the person(s) responsible for this senseless murder. “Detectives have canvassed the area on several occasions and we need the public’s help to find the person responsible,” said Councilwoman Jan Perry said.

Murdered Feb 4th, 2012 Ruben “Big Mike” Medina was known in his neighborhood for having a big smile and a bigger heart. He was a helpful handyman, loved music, drawing and had a great mind for mathematics. Hungry people in his community saw his gracious heart as he bought groceries when the need arose. On Feb 4th, shortly after 6:30 pm, Big Mike was walking down Hooper Ave north of 25th St. pushing a bike. He was approached by 2 unknown men who began to argue and struggle for the bike. One of the suspects used a 9mm handgun to shoot Big Mike several times. According to a witness, the suspect took the bike and walked northbound on Hooper Ave. A description of the shooter was given to detectives.

CRIME TIP:

Ignorance is no Excuse Exploding fireworks, honking horns, cheering crowds and Auld Lang Syne being sung by cheerful people are common sounds of New Year’s Eve. What we didn’t hear was over 800 California laws going into effect along with 1,000’s and 1,000’s of city, county and federal laws. In all, over 40,000 city, county, state, and federal laws went into effect last year. So how do we know what these laws are so we can be sure not to break them?

Here is a brief breakdown of some of the laws going into effect.

Assembly Bills AB 4 Holding of Immigrants: This law pushes back on a federal program requiring local law enforcement to detain arrested immigrants. Now jails can hold immigrants for federal immigration enforcement only if they have committed serious or violent crimes, as defined by the law. AB-10 Minimum Wage Increase: California

already has a minimum wage that is higher than the federal minimum wage: $8 instead of $7.25 nationwide. As of July 1, 2014, the state’s minimum wage goes up to $9. California’s minimum wage will go up again to $10 per hour as of Jan. 1, 2016.

AB 48 Conversion Kits: This law makes it illegal to buy or own “conversion kits” that give guns semi-automatic capability and to purchase a largecapacity magazine in California. AB 60 Driver’s License for Undocumented Applicants: The Department of Motor Vehicles

will begin the process of implementing AB 60 —the new law requiring DMV to issue a driver license to an applicant who is unable to submit satisfactory proof that he/she is legally present in the Unites States —by drafting new regulations and preparing field offices to process new applications. The new law becomes operative by January 1, 2015. The applicant will be required to meet all other driver license qualifications.

AB 154 Abortion Nurses: This law allows medical

professionals such as nurse practitioners to perform a type of early abortion if they have received the necessary training. Qualified professionals can now enroll in the requisite training program. AB 184 Hit and Run: Statute of Limitations: This law extends the statute of limitations for hit-andrun collisions in which death or permanent, serious injury was a result. A criminal complaint may be filed within three years of the offense, or one year after the person was initially identified by law enforcement as a suspect in the commission of the offense, which ever comes later, but in no case more than six years after the offense. AB 191 Low Income Benefit Linking: This law links signing up for Medi-Cal benefits to enrolling in food stamps via Cal Fresh, bolstering the author’s goal of expanding access for the many low-income Californian households eligible for both programs. AB 241 Domestic Worker Bill of Rights: This

law entitles housekeepers, nannies and other inhome laborers to overtime pay. The final version contains fewer worker guarantees than the original, which offered such protections as meal breaks.

My suggestion for a solution Every time we have an election, millions of dollars are spent notifying potential voters of what candidates have done right and what their opposition has done wrong. It would be a good step in the public interest direction if we had a law passed requiring ALL officials running for an office to set aside a portion of their advertising funds for new law public information. -Rev. Don Abernathy AB 263/SB 666 Immigrate Safety Status: These

laws both prohibit employers from punishing or retaliating against workers on the basis of their immigration status.

AB 266/SB 286 High Occupancy Vehicle Lanes:

Together these laws extend sunset dates for low emission, zero emission vehicles to operate in high occupancy vehicle lanes (HOV) without meeting occupancy requirements to January 1, 2019.

AB 351 Anti-Terrorism Enforcement: This law bars California agencies and the state National Guard from helping the federal government detain or prosecute people under a controversial post-Sept. 11 anti-terrorism law. AB 443 Registration and Vehicle Transfers Between Family Members: This law prohibits

the transfer of ownership of a vehicle to a relative or a revocable living trust until all parking or toll– violation fines and penalties reported to the DMV are paid by the transferee.

AB 465 Child Protection: This law allows community youth sports teams to request a background check before taking someone on as a coach. AB 484 Standard Testing In Schools: With schools at work implementing the national Common Core standards, this law nixes the existing Standardized Testing and Reporting assessments in favor of tests aligned with the new guidelines. Students across the state will take the incoming Common Core-related tests by the end of the 20142015 school year, and the scores will be used to evaluate schools the following year. AB 500 Gun Storage: This law requires a gun

owner, in a household inhabited by someone prohibited from owning a gun, to lock up any firearms.

requires the California Department of Veterans Affairs (CalVet) to sponsor a veterans’ special interest license plate and requires the DMV to issue the veterans’ plate if CalVet meets the current statutory requirements. This law creates, in addition to the current Honoring Veterans design of the Veteran’s Organization Plate, a new program to reissue the Veteran design that was issued prior to January 1, 2010. These plates are available to all vehicle owners. The Department of Veterans Affairs must secure 7,500 pre–paid applications in order for the department to implement this plate program.

SNITCHESSTITCHESsays Who?

DITCHES

I was told that day, that the 15-year-old boy; who has not lived a life at all yet, had deserved to die with his face down in the dump of an abandon field in Wilmington with bullet holes in his head! And the socalled ‘paperwork’ that was rumored to be the reason why a mother lost her child that day, is a validation of horse manure for the type of belief that communities cater to. The saddest part of this story is the same individuals that labeled this boy as a ‘Snitch’ only did so because they were facing death row due to their own charges of murder. Four years later were convicted of murder and are now awaiting the gas chamber.

This boy died at 15 because he was labeled a ‘Snitch’! To snitch on someone means that it is an act of betrayal, but in this devastating truth the young kid It is funny how we grow up and we are taught to died because his so-called homeboy labeled him not tattle because it is not good!

Judges, lawyers and the police will all tell you “Ignorance of a law is not excuse” but how much effort is put into notifying tax paying citizens of the new laws? The answer is very little.

Ocean County Man Sentenced to 20 Years in Prison for Sexually Abusing Toddler, Streaming Assault Live Over the Internet TRENTON—An Ocean County, New Jersey, man was sentenced December 19, 2013 to 20 years in prison for sexually abusing a toddler and streaming footage of the assault over the Internet, U.S. Attorney Paul J. Fishman announced.

Rodford W. Brindley, 68, of Toms River, New Jersey, previously pleaded guilty before U.S. District Judge Joel A. Pisano to an information charging him with one count of sexual exploitation of a minor. Judge Pisano imposed the sentence December 19, 2013 in Trenton federal court. According to documents filed in this case and statements made in court: Brindley engaged in online chats with someone whom he believed to be a mother living in Ohio, but who was, in fact, an Ohio law enforcement officer. On April 2, 2012, with no encouragement from the officer, Brindley sexually abused a child in his care at his Toms River home and streamed live video of that conduct over the Internet. He was arrested the same day by Ocean County authorities. He has been in custody since the case was adopted federally in May 2012.

Rodford W. Brindley, 68 In addition to the prison term, Judge Pisano sentenced Brindley to serve five years of supervised release. He is also required to register as a sex offender. U.S. Attorney Fishman credited special agents of the FBI’s Child Exploitation Task Force, under the direction of Special Agent in Charge Aaron T. Ford in Newark; the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office, under the direction of Prosecutor Joseph D. Coronato; and the Franklin County Sheriff ’s Department in Ohio for the investigation leading to the sentence on December 19, 2013. The government is represented by Assistant U.S. Attorney Harvey Bartle, Attorney in Charge of the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Trenton.

Sexual Offender Fugitive: Convicted Sexual Offenders are required to register with local law enforcement within 5 days of release from prison. Violators have failed to either register upon release or missed their annual update. Registrants may have subsequently relocated.

LAPD Offers $75,000 Reward For Leads in Glassell Park Murder of James Howe By Ajay Singh Patch.com The Los Angeles Police Department offered a $75,000 reward December 16, 2013 for information leading to the identification of three suspects wanted for the murder this past month of a reality television director in his Glassell Park home. The LAPD offered the reward at the police headquarters downtown during a news conference attended by senior officers of the LAPD Northeast Division and Councilmember José Huizar, in whose council district 14 the murder occurred. James Marcus Howe, 42, was shot and killed Nov. 27 in what the LAPD has described as a random attack by an intruder posing as a solicitor on the 4400

block of West Avenue 42. His wife, who was also at home along with their six-yearold son, was shot and seriously wounded. Two African American males—one aged 16 to 22 years and the other between the ages of 20 and 25—are wanted for Howe’s murder. A third suspect, described as a female African American who drove a dark-colored early model 2000 Ford Mustang getaway car, is also wanted by the LAPD. “Detectives have exhausted all known leads in this case and are currently seeking the public’s assistance,” the LAPD’s Media Relations Section said in a communiqué before the news conference. A large number of Howe’s family and friends attended Monday afternoon’s news

conference. They included Howe’s father, Allan, as well as his mother and aunt. Both Howe’s father and aunt spoke eloquently about his life and how he had touched a lot of people’s hearts in his short life. Huizar offered his condolences to the Howe family and thanked the LAPD for its efforts in trying to track down Howe’s killers. “We are all stunned by the horrific nature of this crime,” Huizar’s communications director, Rick Coca quoted the councilmember as saying. “A child has lost their father—it is a horrible tragedy that we cannot undo.

Long Beach Parolee Arrested for Alleged Carjackings

Military vs. Prison

A prisoner is someone who has broken the law or possibly harmed another citizen and is sentenced to prison for an undetermined time depending on their offense. Freedom is all the prisoner gives up when he enters the prison with its high walls. During their stay, they receive room and board without working for one minute. If they need medical care, they will receive it at no charge. The state provides a television, a weight room and a library if they choose to read or exercise.

A 24-year-old parolee is back in the jail December 28, 2013, this time for reportedly committing carjackings within minutes of each other in Hacienda Heights and the City of Industry, authorities said. Markkis Porsche Sonier, on probation for an assault offense, allegedly told a man at a restaurant parking lot at Seventh Avenue and the Pomona (60) Freeway about 8:50 p.m. Friday, December 27, 2013 that he had a gun and demanded the man’s green Dodge Neon, Los Angeles County sheriff’s Sgt. Greg Taylor said.

“Realizing that the vehicle that nearly collided into them could possibly be related to the carjacking which had just happened, deputies conducted a traffic stop and detained the driver without incident,” he said. The first carjacking victim was not injured. The second victim was treated at the scene for minor injuries. No firearm was located. Sonier was arrested and booked at the sheriff’s Industry station, where he was being held on $185,000 bail. He was transferred at 4:45 a.m. to the Inmate Reception Center, 450 Bauchet St., in downtown Los Angeles.

Sonier drove away northbound on Seventh Avenue, where he abandoned the car in the supermarket at Turnbull Canyon Road and Gale Avenue in Industry, Taylor said.

LASD Detectives on High-Tech Taskforce Net Two Card-Skimming Scammers The Southern California High Tech Task Force (SCHTTF) is a collaborative effort of local, county state, and federal law enforcement agencies working in unison to combat high tech crime involving the internet, intellectual property, computer equipment, emerging technologies, theft of identity information and numerous other high tech crimes. The SCHTTF includes members of both federal and local law enforcement agencies throughout Los Angeles County working jointly to combat cyber crimes and fraud. On Sunday, December 15, 2013, detectives from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department assigned to the SCHTTF, worked with United States Secret Service and Federal Bureau of Investigation personnel, and arrested two suspects involved in installing card-skimming devices in banks in affluent areas located in the southern part of the San Fernando Valley. The investigation began in September, 2012, when detectives working in a joint investigation with two banking entities became alerted to skimming devices being installed at banks in Sherman Oaks and Encino. Working off leads provided by bank investors, taskforce investigators developed information which led to both suspects being arrested. Their vehicle was

stopped Sunday morning, December 15, 2013, by undercover law enforcement officers, on the Ventura Boulevard onramp to the Interstate 405 Freeway, in Encino. Both suspects were booked at the West Hollywood Sheriff’s Station. Search warrants were served at both suspects’ homes later the same day. Evidence indicating the suspects were involved in the criminal act of installing skimming devices on ATMs was recovered.

Multiple felony counts of Identity Theft were filed against the two men, Georgi Nikolov, 32, of North Hollywood, and Dimitar Dimitrov, 36, of Santa Monica, with the High Tech Crimes Division of the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office. Nikolov and Dimitrov are both being held in the Los Angeles County jail system, in lieu of $70,000 bail.

Tips on how to avoid becoming a victim

• Avoiding identity theft is not simple but there are several common sense things consumers can do: • Keep personal information in a safe place and avoid storing important documents in easily accessible places like glove boxes or day planners. • Don’t give your social security or account number over the phone to anyone who has called you, or to anyone you don’t know. Don’t be afraid to ask why your personal information is needed and how it will be used. • Shred all documents that contain personal information before tossing them out. Never simply toss documents that contain your social security number in the trash can. • Cancel your paper bills and statements wherever possible and instead check your statements and pay bills on-line from financial institution secure websites. • Monitor your account balances and activity electronically (at least once per week).

• If you don’t have access to on-line accounts, review your paper bank and credit card statements monthly. • Refrain from carrying unnecessary information such as PIN’s, passwords, or social security numbers in your wallet or purse. • Retrieve paper mail from your mailbox promptly and deposit outgoing mail containing sensitive information in a secure mailbox.

By Gina Tenorio Patch.com An 18-year-old man was arraigned December 17, 2013 on charges of sexually assaulting two women in separate attacks in Santa Ana and Anaheim. Raymond Boykin of Anaheim was named in a $1 million arrest warrant following the sexual assault December 11, 2013 of a 19-year-old woman in a parking structure at the Westfield MainPlace Mall in Santa Ana, according to Santa Ana police Cpl. Anthony Bertagna. Two days later, he allegedly sexually assaulted a 42-yearold woman about 6:15 a.m. in the parking lot of Sa Rang Community Church in Anaheim. The victim managed to get free from her attacker and run across the street to a gas station, where she called police, Anaheim police Lt. Bob Dunn said. When police returned to the scene, the woman’s car was missing, presumably stolen by her attacker, Dunn said. Police spotted the stolen car about 11 a.m. Friday at Sycamore and Pauline streets and a chase ensued when the driver refused to pull over, Dunn said. The chase ended at Olive and Sycamore streets when the car crashed, Dunn said. Three of the four occupants in the car remained at the scene, and one man ran away but was caught, according to Dunn. Boyken went to a Verizon store at the mall to buy a phone, but “he was 20 bucks short,” Bertagna said. Boyken left the store and robbed and sexually assaulted the woman in the parking garage at knifepoint, then returned to the

Boyken is charged with one felony count each of forcible oral copulation, second-degree robbery, unlawful taking of a vehicle and evading while driving recklessly and two felony counts of assault with the intent to commit a sexual offense. Boykin also faces sentence-enhancing allegations for the personal use of a deadly weapon. If convicted at trial, he could face up to 27 years to life in prison.

Roberto Rizo

Murdered February 16, 2013 By Don Abernathy

VAN NUYS On Saturday, February 16th, 2013, Roberto Rizo and a few friends attended a house party in the 15700 block of Sherman Way near Haskell Ave. in Van Nuys. At approximately 1 am, authorities responded to a call of a fight in progress. Officers arriving on the scene saw multiple cars leaving the location. Witnesses directed officers to Roberto Rizo, who was on the ground with multiple stab wounds.

VICTIM: Roberto Rizo

January 8, 2014

Always be suspicious of anyone asking for money or offering mysterious prize money.

Rizo, 17, a student at Canoga Park High School, was taken to the hospital where he

underwent emergency surgery, but died a day later from his injuries. Investigators believe Rizo was attacked by several suspects when a fight broke out at a party. One of the assailants stabbed Rizo with a knife. Beto, as the family called him, was helpful to everyone in the family. He had just gotten his work permit and was looking forward to earning his own way. He was an average 17 yr. old who enjoyed XBox but made the time to play football outside with his nephews who looked up to him as a role model and mentor. Beto loved football and was a huge Raider’s fan.

“He was a kid, 17. These guys were 25 years old. Please, from the bottom of our heart, put yourselves in our shoes and help us out here. You’re out there, and you’re taking pictures like crazy, you know, you’re young and you’re taking pictures. Someone saw something. Please, put yourself in our shoes, our family’s shoes, and come forward, help us out,” said Rizo’s cousin, Gabriela Sandoval. Police encourage anyone with information about the stabbing or photos from the party on their phone or social

media pages to call West Valley Homicide Detective Dunlop at (818) 374-7720. lapdonline.org

Police Search for Seal Beach Robbery Suspect Police ask anyone with information to call detectives.

Police Release Images of Homicide Suspects By Aaron Castrejon

Seal Beach police were looking for a robbery suspect December 26, 2013, who held up a victim on Christmas day during what was supposed to be a sale of a gold Rolex watch. The victim met the suspect online and the two agreed to meet in person to conduct the transaction, according to Seal Beach police Sgt. Philip Gonshak. Just before 8:30 p.m., Wednesday, December 25, 2013 police received a 911 call from the victim, who said he was robbed in the parking lot of a CVS store at the Seal Beach Towne Center at 12490 Seal Beach Blvd., Gonshak said. The robber, who was the passenger in a vehicle driven by another suspect, pulled out a gun and took the watch, Gonshak said. The suspect was described as a man, possibly Latino, who appeared to be right-handed, about 5-foot-5, 130 pounds, with short hair. He was clean shaven and was wearing a black jacket and blue jeans. The getaway vehicle is a silver, newer-model Acura or Honda. Police ask anyone with information was asked to call detectives at (562) 799-4100, ext. 1108.

Jury Finds Pueblo Bishop Gang Member Guilty in RICO Murder Case for Ambush Killing of Father in Front of His 2-Year-Old Son LOS ANGELES—A member of the Pueblo Bishop Bloods street gang was convicted by a federal jury Dec. 20, 2013 for the murder of a young man with no gang affiliation who was executed in front of his 2-year-old son.

Rondale Young, also known as “P-Grump,” 30, of South Los Angeles, was convicted on several counts after a two-week jury trial before United States District Judge S. James Otero. Young was found guilty of violating the federal Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act in relation to the murder of 23-year-old Francisco Cornelio. In addition to the RICO offense, Young was convicted of witness intimidation related to Young’s conduct after he was arrested for the murder. The jury also found Young guilty of conspiring to murder Mr. Cornelio, as well as the actual murder, both of which were done in furtherance of the Pueblo Bishop criminal enterprise. In addition, Young was convicted of using a gun that resulted in murder. Based on these convictions, Young faces a mandatory minimum term of life in federal prison, plus 10 years. Young is scheduled to be sentenced by Judge Otero on May 26.

The federal convictions come after Young had been acquitted in Los Angeles Superior Court on murder charges related to the slaying of Mr. Cornelio. After the acquittal in state court, the FBI’s Los Angeles Metropolitan Task Force on Violent Gangs re-investigated the case and uncovered additional evidence related to the murder and Young’s involvement with the Pueblo Bishops.

The murder was unsolved prior to a federal racketeering indictment that was unsealed in August 2010. The federal indictment charges that Young and his co-defendants were members of a criminal enterprise that engaged in murder, drug dealing, firearms trafficking, witness intimidation, and armed robbery as part of the gang’s efforts to control and terrorize the Pueblo Del Rio Housing Projects in South Los Angeles.

The evidence presented at trial showed that Young drove his car, which contained other armed gang members, into rival gang territory early on the morning of August 2, 2009. The Pueblo Bishops were seeking retaliation after an earlier shooting against their gang. The Pueblo Bishops targeted Mr. Cornelio because he appeared to be Hispanic and was in rival gang territory. According to witnesses who testified, two Pueblo Bishops, who were armed with shotguns, got out of Young’s vehicle and ambushed an unsuspecting Mr. Cornelio, who was washing his car. The gang members shot him once in the back without saying a word, while the victim’s son sat in the back seat of the car. There was no evidence that Cornelio had any gang ties.

Young is the third person to be convicted in federal court in relation to the murder of Mr. Cornelio. In a prior trial, a federal jury determined that Anthony “Bandit” Gabrourel was also part of the plot by Pueblo Bishop members to murder Mr. Cornelio. At that trial, the evidence showed that Gabourel was one of two Pueblo Bishops who exited Young’s car with shotguns and fatally shot Mr. Cornelio. Gabrourel was sentenced earlier this year by Judge Otero to 40 years in federal prison. The third person conviction in relation to the murder was sentenced to five years in prison for hiding the murder weapon after the slaying.

Sexual Offender Fugitives Previously Convicted Sex Offender Sentenced to 25 Years for Sex Trafficking a Minor and Two Adults

WASHINGTON— Terrance Anderson, aka Scooby, has been sentenced to federal prison on charges of sex trafficking of a minor and two counts of transporting adults in interstate commerce for prostitution. Anderson, 42, of Ellenwood, Georgia, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Thomas W. Thrash to serve 25 years in prison, to be followed by seven years’ supervised release. Anderson was ordered to pay restitution to three victims totaling $154,500. Anderson pleaded guilty to the charges on July 19, 2013. “This sentence makes clear that those who prey upon women and girls and coerce them into prostitution will be punished severely,” said Acting Assistant Attorney General Jocelyn Samuels for the Civil Rights Division. “The Department of Justice will continue to devote its full efforts to investigating and prosecuting those who commit such heinous crimes.”

“This defendant chose to earn a living exploiting minors, even continuing to do so after previously serving a federal sentence for sex trafficking-related conduct,” said U.S. Attorney Sally Quillian Yates of the Northern District of Georgia. “Our office will remain vigilant in our efforts to prosecute those who exploit children and young women in this district.” "Today’s (December 19, 2013) sentencing removes a dangerous individual from our streets who has repeatedly shown a callous disregard for the basic human

According to U.S. Attorney Yates, the charges, and other information presented in court, from February 2008 through December 2011, Anderson ran a prostitution ring in which he advertised the sexual services of a minor and young women on the Internet, including K.B., T.B., A.C., and other victims. He advertised on sites such as Backpage, Craigslist, and Eros, as well as his own website, Rentsomethingsexy. com. Anderson caused K.B., a 17-yearold girl, to engage in commercial sex acts in multiple states, requiring her to earn $1,000 a day, work seven days a week, and give all of her earnings to him. Anderson also transported 18-year-old T.B. and 24-year-old A.C. from Georgia to Virginia, where he required the young women to perform numerous commercial sex acts for his financial gain. Anderson previously pleaded guilty in August 2001 to using a cell phone, which is a facility of interstate commerce, to cause a juvenile to engage in prostitution and to being a felon in possession of a firearm. He received a sentence of seven years in federal prison after providing information to federal investigators about

This case was investigated by special agents of the FBI. If anyone has any information about human trafficking, they are encouraged to report the information to the FBI at 404-679-9000. Assistant U.S. Attorney Susan Coppedge of the Northern District of Georgia and Deputy Chief Karima Maloney of the Civil Rights Division prosecuted the case.

CAPTION FOR THIS IMAGE

Force Fed 96 Bananas A man riding a train in Mumbai, India, snatched an 11 gram gold chain from a passenger then ran. The victim raised an alarm, as fellow passengers chased the suspect and caught him in another compartment. He initially denied taking the gold chain while the passengers searched him. The chain wasn’t found but a fellow traveler said he noticed the thief swallowing something. The police took custody of him at the next station.
