Delaware State Police said Friday that Corporal Grade-One Ty Snook was the victim of a targeted attack against law enforcement when he was gunned down while on overtime duty at the Hessler Boulevard DMV December 23rd.
The gunman, Rahman Rose, was shot to death by a responding county officer.
According to State Police, a thorough investigation indicates that Rose, who had previously lived in Connecticut, was staying in the Wilmington area without a permanent address. Rose apparently told people who knew him that he believed police were targeting him, that he was concerned that law enforcement was coming after him, and that he had posted anti-police content on social media, saying he was the victim of “gang stalking.”
The investigation found no evidence that Rose acted with anyone else. He had limited contact with Delaware law enforcement in the year before the incident, but nothing that led to arrest.
Also, no evidence was found of any prior relationship, interaction or dispute between Rose and Snook.
I think we can put away our conspiracy theories for another day.
Val Longhurst’s Future? Just b/c there’s been radio silence on the, um, disappearance of a whole lot of money from PAL doesn’t mean that stuff’s not going on behind the scenes. Far be it for me to make light of Longhurst’s potential legal issues (he lied), but I’ve denied you the gift of (something approximating) music for too long. Time for one of rock’s great philosophers to pontificate:
“Didn’t have a dime for a call, public defender laughin’ in the hall…’
Judge Tries To Make ICE Act Lawfully:
A federal judge in Minnesota imposed restrictions on the actions of immigration agents toward protesters in the state on Friday, a decision that comes after weeks of mounting tension between demonstrators and federal officers.
Judge Kate M. Menendez ordered agents not to retaliate against people “engaging in peaceful and unobstructive protest activity,” and not to use pepper spray or other “crowd dispersal tools” in retaliation for protected speech. The judge also said agents could not stop or detain protesters in vehicles who were not “forcibly obstructing or interfering with” agents.
Meanwhile, the lawless ‘Justice Department’ targets Minnesota leaders:
The Trump administration has opened a criminal investigation into elected Democrats in Minnesota, according to a senior law enforcement official familiar with the matter, a major escalation in the fight between the federal government and local officials over the aggressive immigration crackdown underway in the city.
The investigation would focus on allegations that Gov. Tim Walz and Jacob Frey, the mayor of Minneapolis, had conspired to impede thousands of federal agents who have been sent to the city since last month. Last week, one of those agents killed a 37-year-old woman, Renee Good.
It remained unclear what investigative steps have been taken. The senior law enforcement official said subpoenas had yet to be issued, but could be in the days to come. Both Mr. Walz and Mr. Frey responded with combative statements on Friday night, denouncing what they said was a weaponized use of law enforcement power and promising to stand firm in the face of the administration’s efforts.
“Weaponizing the justice system and threatening political opponents is a dangerous, authoritarian tactic,” Mr. Walz said in a statement released by his office, which said it had not yet received notice of an investigation. “The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.”
President Donald Trump bought more than $1 million worth of corporate bonds from Netflix and Warner Bros. Discovery only weeks after the media giants announced a $83 billion merger deal that could reshape Hollywood.
Trump has involved himself in Netflix’s blockbuster deal to buy Warner Bros. Discovery and has criticized Netflix’s market power.
“They have a very big market share,” Trump told reporters at the Kennedy Center on Dec. 7, two days after the deal was announced. “When they have Warner Bros., that share goes up a lot. So, I don’t know. That’s going to be for some economists to tell and also — and I’ll be involved in that decision too. But they have a very big market share.”
