LAS VEGAS DEMOCRAT OFFICIAL INVESTIGATED OVER MURDER OF JOURNALIST: “On Wednesday, Las Vegas Police officials confirmed that a search warrant had been carried out that morning at the home of Clark County Public Administrator Robert Telles in connection with the recent stabbing death of journalist Jeff German. According to 8 News Now, a large police presence was seen outside Telles’ home located near Charleston Boulevard and Hualapai Way.”

UPDATE: “Las Vegas police arrest county official Robert Telles in the murder of Jeff German, a journalist who wrote about him before he lost re-election,” Breaking News Online reports.

More details here: Police arrest Clark County official in reporter murder. Local NBC affiliate KSNV waits nine paragraphs to reference Telles’ party affiliation, not surprisingly.

LIVE UPDATES: Man on shooting spree in Memphis, police say.

UPDATE: “The shelter-in-place order for the city of Memphis has been lifted now that 19-year-old Ezekiel Kelly has been caught, according to Memphis Police…Kelly is in custody, according to the DeSoto County Sheriff’s Office. He was arrested after wrecking near Ivan Road and Hodges Road.”

But how long will he remain there? “Memphis Republicans lost major races in Shelby County Thursday, with Democrat District Attorney candidate Steve Mulroy defeating DA Amy Weirich and Shelby County Mayor Lee Harris (D) defeating Republican challenger Worth Morgan…Weirich spoke to supporters in a somber tone before the race was called for the George Soros-backed candidate Mulroy was declared the winner,” local talk station KWAM reported on August 4th in a post headlined, “CATASTROPHIC! Republicans Pummeled in Shelby County Election.”

The previous day, Weirich was asked by talk radio host Todd Starnes, “What does Memphis, Tennessee, look like if Steve Mulroy gets elected district attorney?” She replied, “Memphis, Tennessee, looks like San Francisco.”

It only took a month for that prediction to come true; as Tom Cotton wrote in December: Recall, Remove & Replace Every Last Soros Prosecutor.

Combined with our lawsuits in Colorado these represent nearly half of the country. This nationwide legal blitz aims to take out every single ban on semi-automatic weapons and standard capacity magazines for good.”

DECLINE IS A CHOICE: Adult Man Snags Ball Intended For Young Girl.

There are many, many examples of adults stealing baseballs from kids, but this one that happened at a recent Washington Nationals game is one of the more egregious.

A group of young girls was on hand to watch the Nats and were about to get the thrill of catching a ball from a Big Leaguer. Nationals first baseman and outfielder Joey Meneses lobbed a ball to the girls. One of them reached for the throw, but… she wasn’t quite quick enough.

“Fortunately, the Nationals reached out to make things right. So, everything worked out (for the most part). It’s always a bad look to hop in front of a kid and take a ball, especially when a player threw it to them. Now, a foul ball? Then it’s every man, woman, and child for themselves.”
