Family members of the Fort Lauderdale airport attacker Esteban Santiago-Ruiz have said that he suffered severe mental health problems following his tour of duty in Iraq.

Santiago-Ruiz, 26, who killed at least five people and wounded eight during a shooting rampage at Fort Lauderdale Airport in Florida on Friday, "lost his mind" in Iraq, his aunt has said.


Maria Ruiz Rivera told NJ.com that her nephew, who was born in New Jersey and living in Alaska, was hospitalized for mental health issues after returning from Iraq, where he was on tour with the Puerto Rico National Guard from April 2010 to February 2011.

Ruiz Rivera said he appeared to be doing well, particularly following the recent birth of his son. However, she said that "he lost his mind in Iraq."

Comment: Interesting history. Is it possible that the shooter is another mind-controlled patsy? He reportedly told the FBI in October that the government was controlling his mind and forcing him to watch ISIS videos online. It would be foolish to discount his words considering the history of the US government creating mind-controlled assassins: This Sex Offender/Predator flyer photo for Santiago has been making the rounds, but it's probably just someone with the same name. The man in the photograph is not the same man involved in the shooting.

Yahoo Finance's social media manager has discovered just how harsh and unforgiving the internet can be after one small typo turned a routine story about the US Navy's budget into a full-on meme monsoon.

The typo in question transformed the word 'bigger' into the N-word, sparking a Twitter frenzy.

Yahoo did not do themselves any favors by allowing the offending tweet to remain live for a full 20 minutes before taking it down and issuing an apology.

McAfee Antivirus founder destroys FBI report - Russia DID NOT hack DNC emails

'The most deceptive propaganda to date was perpetrated on the American public'

Fresh off reports that the FBI never even accessed the DNC's computers before it accused Russia of hacking, John McAfee the founder of world famous McAfee anti-virus has delivered a devastating rebuke to the claims being made against Russia in mainstream media.

Accusations that that the Kremlin hacked into the DNC's servers in an effort to defeat Hillary Clinton are totally ridiculous, McAfee said in an interview with RT.

The cyber security expert deconstructed point-by-point the DHS/FBI "Grizzly Steppe report" purporting to document Russia's hacking. McAfee was very confident no state-run hacking operation - certainly not one run by Russia - would make the incredibly stupid and obvious mistakes alleged in the report, such as using a Russian IP address and Russian language.

Police corporals of the Wilmington Police Department who fatally shot an already-wounded, wheelchair-bound African-American man in September 2015 will not be charged with violating the man's civil rights, federal prosecutors with the US Attorney's Office for the District of Delaware have announced.

On Friday, federal officials with the US Attorney's Office for the District of Delaware, the FBI, and the US Justice Department's civil rights division told the family of Jeremy McDole, the man killed by Wilmington police, that evidence does not indicate the officers willfully used excessive force in shooting McDole.

"The Justice Department announced today that there is insufficient evidence to pursue federal criminal civil rights charges against the Wilmington Police Department (WPD) Corporals involved in the fatal shooting of 28-year-old paraplegic Jeremy McDole on Sept. 23, 2015," the US attorney's office said in a release, according to the News Journal.

The encounter between police and McDole, 28, was caught on cellphone video by a witness, eliciting outrage in Wilmington and beyond. Police arrived on the scene after a 911 call claiming an African-American man in a wheelchair was suffering from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. In a lawsuit filed against the city of Wilmington, McDole's family said that McDole was robbed of his wallet and then shot, and that the thief or an accomplice called police claiming a self-inflicted gunshot was to blame for McDole's condition.

Transgender man sues Catholic hospital for canceling 'medically necessary' hysterectomy as part of sex transition

A transgender man is suing a Catholic hospital in New Jersey for canceling his hysterectomy surgery after his doctor deemed the procedure "medically necessary" as part of his sex transition.

The surgery was scheduled at St. Joseph's Hospital in Paterson, but an administrator canceled the operation because of the hospital's religious affiliation.

A lawsuit filed on Thursday claims that a Catholic hospital denied a transgender man a hysterectomy due to ethical and religious directives from the US Conference of Bishops. The man, Jionni Conforti alleges that doing so violated his patient's bill of rights that states hospitals will provide medical services regardless of "gender identity or question."

In June 2015, Jionni Conforti went to St. Joseph's Wayne in New Jersey to schedule his hysterectomy. The head nurse in charge of surgery there "assured" him that there would be no issues having the procedure at either the Wayne hospital or its other location in Paterson.

The procedure was deemed "medically necessary" to treat Conforti, who was diagnosed with gender dysphoria in 2014, court documents said. He had "long struggled with depression and anxiety rooted in the need to align himself with his true sex."

Convicted killer receives first state-funded sex change operation

A 57-year-old convicted killer serving a life sentence in California became the first U.S. inmate to receive state-funded sex-reassignment surgery, the prisoner's attorneys confirmed Friday to The Associated Press.

California prison officials agreed in August 2015 to pay for the surgery for Shiloh Heavenly Quine, who was convicted of first-degree murder, kidnapping and robbery for ransom and has no possibility of parole.

Quine's case led the state to become the first to set standards that will allow other transgender inmates to apply to receive state-funded sex-reassignment surgery.

It also prompted a federal magistrate to require California to provide transgender female inmates housed in men's facilities with more female-oriented items such as nightgowns, scarves and necklaces.
