Lee Boyd Malvo's life sentence for his involvement in the 2002 DC sniper attacks has been overturned by a federal court because he was only 17 years old at the time of his arrest. The ruling is based on a 2016 decision by the US Supreme Court.

On Friday, Malvo's three capital murder sentences and one attempted capital murder sentence were overturned by US District Judge Raymond Alvin Jackson of the Eastern District of Virginia.

The ruling cited both the Supreme Court decision in 2012 that found juvenile sentences of life without parole were unconstitutional and the 2016 decision that made the same judgement retroactive.

SJWs lose it, becoming an angry mob threatening violence at Evergreen University

Bert Weinstein has become the object of vitriol as SJWs threaten his safety for imagined 'racism'
Students at Evergreen State College - a school notable for its far-left politics and its preference for measuring students' performance with "narrative evaluations" instead of grades - have seized control of their campus and are reportedly seeking hostages following a confrontation with a biology professor who objected to a planned demonstration that asked white students and faculty to voluntarily leave campus for a day, the Washington Times reports.

The protest began Tuesday morning when an angry mob of SJW's confronted Professor Bret Weinstein after he had sent an email to faculty and staff explaining his reasoning for opposing the demonstration.

Now, Weinstein's reportedly been told to avoid campus because his safety is at risk.
"Police told me protesters stopped cars yesterday, demanding information about occupants," Mr. Weinstein told The Washington Times. "They believe I was being sought. It appears that the campus has been under the effective control of protesters since 9:30 a.m. Tuesday. Police are on lockdown, hamstrung by the college administration. Students, staff and faculty are not safe.

A spokesman for the Evergreen Department of Police Services confirmed the agency had been in contact with Mr. Weinstein. He said officers would be in touch with The Times, but three subsequent phone calls were not returned."
Following the modus operandi of protests at colleges like U.C. Berkeley, the angry mob of SJWs who confronted Weinstein refused to listen as he attempted to calmly explain his reasoning, prefering instead to hurl obscenities at him while demanding his resignation.

"Fuck you, you piece of shit," one of them screamed.

Comment: The controversy above is eerily similar to the events surrounding Dr. Jordan Peterson, a University of Toronto professor and clinical psychologist, who dared to speak out against Bill C16 in Canada. We're seeing a new phenomenon where those who hold the mantle of 'Social Justice Warrior' are becoming more like terrorists in that they threaten legal and now physical violence against people who do not hold the same political ideology they do. What's shocking about this situation above, is that the police themselves have been ordered to stand down and that these violent, and rather crazed, SJWs are able to extract demands from the university effecting real policy changes.

A 43-year-old man has been charged with paying people $30 to draw samples of their blood, which D.C. police said he was storing in "large quantities" in an abandoned apartment near Nationals Park in Southwest Washington.

An arrest affidavit said police stumbled on the makeshift operation when a patrol officer saw people — many described in court documents as "habitual substance abusers" — congregating Wednesday afternoon in front of a three-story brick apartment building at P and First streets.

The officer overheard some of them discussing being paid to give blood, according to the affidavit filed by the Office of the D.C. Attorney General, and went to investigate. The suspect, Khoa Hoang Nguyen, told police that he was doing work for a biomedical company "and that he was approved and certified to withdraw blood from citizens," according to court papers.

A woman at the apartment told police that she and Nguyen had drawn blood from 20 people that day, the documents state. They say that Nguyen had a ledger with an additional 205 names.

Comment: Hopefully, more information will come to light in this strange case.

A man riding the MAX in Northeast Portland fatally stabbed two passengers who tried to stop him from hurling racial and anti-Muslim insults at women on the train, witnesses tell WW's news partner KATU-TV.

The suspect is currently in Portland police custody. The stabbing occurred at about 4:30 this afternoon as the light-rail train pulled into the Hollywood Transit Center.

Details of the triple stabbing, which killed two men, are still emerging. But eyewitness reports to KATU and The Oregonian indicate it was an anti-immigrant hate crime.

KATU reports:
Witnesses told KATU's Joe Douglass the stabbing suspect was hurling racial insults at two women with dark skin, one of whom was wearing a headdress. Two men who came to the woman's defense had their throats slashed by the suspect, witnesses said.

Another witness says she saw two women who appeared to be of Middle Eastern-descent get on the train. At least one of them was wearing a headdress. The suspect was asking them questions when he got belligerent. When another bystander tried to calm him down, the man took out a knife and began stabbing people.

"He said, 'Get off the bus, and get out of the country because you don't pay taxes here,' [he said he] doesn't like Muslims, they're criminals," Evelin Hernandez said.

The US State Department has reportedly notified refugee advocacy groups via email to announce a near doubling of the number of refugees allowed into the US, from around 2,500 so far this month to over 1,500 per week in June.

President Donald Trump has sought to lower the cap of refugees entering the US, but an email sent out Thursday from State Department spokeswoman Jennifer L. Smith told private agencies operating worldwide that they would be allowed to bring refugees to the US "unconstrained by the weekly quotas that were in place,"according to the New York Times.

The son of former vice presidential candidate Senator Tim Kaine (D-Virginia) is facing three misdemeanor charges after disrupting a "March for Trump" rally in St. Paul, Minnesota. Seven other protesters were also charged, two with felonies.

Linwood "Woody" Kaine, 24, was charged Friday with one gross misdemeanor count of obstructing the legal process and misdemeanor counts of fleeing on foot and concealing his identity in public, according to a criminal complaint from the Saint Paul City Attorney's Office.

The obstruction charge carries a fine of $3,000 and a possible sentence of up to one year in prison, according to the 2016 Minnesota Statutes.

The complaint alleges that 75 to 125 counter-protesters showed up at a rally on March 4, 2017, to confront people supporting President Donald Trump. Police claim they saw a small group of five to seven protesters hide behind a bush to put on black clothing and cover their faces with masks or black cloth.

Instead of immediately offering help, cop interrogates injured man hit by a car about his immigration status

The police, Americans are told, are her to protect and serve. When the citizens are in trouble and in need of help, the police are but a phone call away and can quickly arrive on the scene to render aid or arrest the bad guys. However, the reality of this situation is far more complex and, in reality, many ways a fiction. Case in point, Marcos Huete — a cyclist hit by an SUV in need of medical care — received only interrogation and contempt when a Monroe County Sheriff's deputy showed up to 'help.'

As Huete lay bleeding on the ground, the first words out of the officer's mouth are not, "are you okay?" or, "can you move," they're "Speak English?" followed immediately by, "You're illegal? Are you a legal citizen or no?"

Huete was on his way to work when a GMC Sierra SUV hit his back tire, according to the traffic accident report. On top of being entirely unconcerned about the injured man who'd just been hit by a truck, this cop didn't seem interested in the details of the accident either.

As Huete sat bleeding, the deputy continued, "You got ID? Passport, visa, what?"

Undercover deputies in Catawba County, North Carolina stumbled on a field of opium poppy plants while conducting a separate investigation. The property owner, Cody Xiong was charged with manufacturing and trafficking opium, both felonies.

An undercover sheriff deputy was at Xion's property conducting a warrantless "knock and talk," following up on a tip about another matter.

Xiong opened the door, saw the investigator on his porch, and immediately confessed.

"I guess you are here for the opium," Xiong said, according to the Washington Post.
