-Lurid Crime Tales-
Charles Manson follower Patricia Krenwinkel denied California parole jail release by Newsom
[NYPOST] Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, Gov. Gavin Governor Hair Gel Newsom
...mayor of San Franciscoas it transformed itself into Poopville, currently governor of Californiaas it transforms itself into Cinderland...
has reversed a parole board's decision to release Patricia Krenwinkel, a former follower of cult leader Charles Manson and one of the perpetrators of the 1969 Tate-LaBianca murders.

In a decision issued Oct. 13 and obtained by Fox News, Newsom wrote that Krenwinkel, now 77, ''lacks the requisite insight she needs to be safely released.''

''Ms. Krenwinkel has engaged in productive introspection,'' the governor's order says, quoting the psychologist who evaluated her, ''but she exhibits some deficits in self-awareness, such as a tendency to externalize blame for her prior transgressions.''

Newsom said he agreed those factors remain relevant to her current risk and concluded that, despite her ''commendable'' progress, she ''currently poses an unreasonable danger to society if released.''

Krenwinkel was 21 years old when she joined other members of Manson's so-called ''Family'' in two nights of killings that left seven people dead, including actress Sharon Tate, who was eight months pregnant.

According to the governor's summary of the case, Krenwinkel and others fatally stabbed Tate's friend Abigail Folger, and helped restrain or attack several of the victims.

The following night, the group murdered Leno and Rosemary LaBianca, leaving phrases such as ''Death to Pigs,'' ''Rise'' and ''Healter [sic] Skelter'' written in blood around their home.

Teens who jumped ex-DOGE staffer Edward ''Big Balls'' Coristine avoid jail, sentenced to probation
[NYPOST] Two teenagers who jumped former DOGE staffer Edward ''Big Balls'' Coristine have avoided jail after pleading guilty to simple assault at a Washington, DC, court.

The boy and girl, both 15, from Hyattsville, Maryland, were sentenced to probation at a DC court on Tuesday, just over two months after the pair were arrested for the savage Aug. 3 attack, WUSA9 reported.

The boy was handed a 12-month probation and allowed to return home under strict house arrest, while the girl was given a nine-month probation and remanded to a local youth shelter.
Boy howdy! That’ll learn 'em!
Their accomplices in the attempted carjacking and assault at approximately 3 a.m. in a DC parking garage remain on the lam.

''I hope you can figure things out and be ready for the consequences,'' Coristine, 19, reportedly told the defendants via video link, as he thanked the courts and police for their quick work in bringing the pair to justice.

Coristine was left with a concussion and a broken nose after he and a female companion were jumped by ''a group of 10 guys,'' the ex-DOGE employee previously said.

#1  strict house arrest

But no 'sternly worded letter'?

#2  the judge feels her job is to 'rehabilitate' and not punish

#3  ^ Karen. The purpose of 'justice' is 'justice' not social work. If the state refuses justice then it forfeits it legitimacy.

#5  The last time I checked the US Congress has full authority over DC, how it's run, who runs it and particularly the courts at all levels there. It is not a State of the Union.
If the electorate objects to whatever officials of DC do there, they can write to their Congress critter. Or better yet, vote for someone else on 3 Nov 2026.

#6  Per the weaselly little leftist bow-tied Harvard scum who taught my criminal law course oh so many years ago: rehabilitation is a proven failure, the sole purpose of punishment is societal retribution.

Zohran Mamdani Won't Call On Hamas To Disarm And Relinquish Power In Gaza
[Daily Caller] Democratic New York City mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani on Wednesday declined to say Hamas should disarm and relinquish power following President Donald Trump’s peace deal between Israel and the terrorist organization.

The broader 20-point peace agreement mandates Hamas permanently disarm and cede control of Gaza. MacCallum asked Mamdani twice on "The Story with Martha MacCallum" if Hamas should adhere to those terms, but he did not directly answer her queries.

"Do you believe that Hamas should lay down their weapons and leave the leadership in Gaza?" MacCallum asked.

"I believe that any future here in New York City is one that we have to make sure that’s affordable for all," Mamdani answered. "And as it pertains to Israel and Palestine that we have to ensure that there is peace. And that is the future we have to fight for."

MacCallum repeated her question.
Everyone knows he wants the Israel eradicated, because it is capitalist, because it is Jewish, and because he assumes it is white colonialist. Some of his voters agree for the first reason, some for the second, and some for the third — the sets overlap. And all of them agree that Hamas’s victims, including the captives, deserved their torments.

NAACP lawyer argues at SCOTUS that it's necessary to create race-based congressional districts because ''white Democrats were not voting for black candidates whether they were Democrats or not.''

#2  How about switching to proportional representation?

#3  /\ Sadly, "proportional representation" is not the desired end-state. I'll leave it at that.

#4  The left will pull out all the stops to keep this gravy train running. They lose this, they lose congress for 20 years and they know it.

As far as I am concerned, The Black Community Leaders are the one pushing for Racial Discrimination and a double standard.

Or has anyone seen _____ Lives Matter, _____ TV channel, MS. _____America, and etc.


If we allow politicians and Race Pimps to play Color, Race, political agenda and/or Anything else to divide us. We cannot be a unified Nation, with a common goal of making America #1.


BTW:
It has been 60 years / 3+ generations since 1965.
It's been EQUAL RIGHTS by law for a long time. The color excuse needs to be buried. Simply put, the Democrat party needs to find something new to use around election time for votes. Besides Color, Race and Sexual Perversion.

#9  White Democrats were not voting for black candidates whether they were Democrats or not.

If you believe this then you must also believe Obama's two elections were rigged.

#10  BB has the final argument
Posted by: Mercutio || 10/16/2025 9:19 Comments || Top||

#11  If white Dems aren't voting for black candidates then a whole lot of white Republicans must be, or there would be no blacks elected to any State or National offices.
Posted by: Glenmore || 10/16/2025 9:22 Comments || Top||

#12  The headlines are who will pick up or lose House seats, but the issue is denying the voters a choice.

''white Democrats were not voting for black candidates whether they were Democrats or not.''

Well how dare they rather stay home than vote for Crockett like a good little voting crop.

In the general election, is it against the law to vote for a candidate whose belongs to a political party other than the voter's registered party?

I know the Get Back on the Party Plantation is a bit of a trope, but enter this NAACP argument that it is absolutely justified. That isn't choice.
