THE KANSAS CITY MURDER COUNT FOR 2011 NOW STANDS AT AN UNLUCKY 113!!!
Thankfully, for the rest of us and for the moment . . . Life goes on . . . So, for now we celebrate life with Candice Swanepoel and her body of lingerie work that now includes holiday hotness.
So . . . While we're glad TKC Readers survived the weekend . . . There's still work to do. Hopefully, we'll have more links, local content, commentary, debate and discussion coming up in just a few . . . STAY TUNED!!!
Murder never takes a holiday.

Tony, just trying to help out here..., I think ya missed this one in today's KC Star.
ReplyDelete"Kenyan L. Jones, 26, faces charges of second-degree murder and armed criminal action in the shooting death of Darnell D. Pearson, 31.According to court documents:Jones admitted paying to have sexual relations with Pearson believing that Person was a woman. Several hours later, Jones became aware that Pearson was a man."
Several hours later???
It took some intensive and sustained detective work to clear this one from the books.
"Jones told police that he obtained a handgun and approached Pearson in the vicinity of East 46th Street and Troost Avenue. Jones chased Pearson to the entry of an apartment building in the 1000 block of East 43rd Street where, Jones said, he “popped him.”Police found Pearson’s body at about 11:25 p.m. A witness who had called 911 told police she heard several shots and saw a man in a hoodie running from the scene and the victim lying in front of the apartment.When police arrested Jones on East 43rd Street, west of Virginia Avenue, he was out of breath and wearing a hoodie-style shirt. A short distance away, police recovered a handgun and a hooded jacket with a cellphone containing video images of Jones."
Just another Norman Rockwell Christmas.
Ouch.
ReplyDeleteWhat a big year for "anti-crime activist" Al Brooks! 113 homicides means lots of candles of bucks for Al.
ReplyDeleteAnd we can't forget Alonzo and Aim4Peace. That $600 grand is really paying dividends.
What a sad state of affairs!
