You really can’t make this stuff up.<\/p>\n
The White House flagged money laundering in the art industry on Monday as a point of corruption while allowing Hunter Biden to sell his artwork to anonymous buyers for as much as $500,000.<\/p>\n
The first report of its kind named the United States Strategy on Countering Corruption is geared towards exploring the ways and means \u201cgovernment officials abuse public power for private gain.\u201d<\/p>\n
Though the White House\u2019s report specifically focused on the art industry as a \u201cmarket\u201d where financial crimes occur, it did not mention the Biden family\u2019s involvement with corruption, such as Hunter\u2019s art selling scheme to investors while his father is president.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Zero jail time for man who knocked Minneapolis police officer unconscious during riot<\/h3>\n
Blindside a cop, attack police vehicles,\u00a0and\u00a0<\/em>steal thousands from Home Depot and you too could be put on house arrest.<\/p>\n
A man who knocked a Minneapolis police officer unconscious with a metal trash can lid during the riots of August 2020 will not go to jail.<\/p>\n
Rather, the man, Brayshaun Gibson, will serve one year of house arrest thanks to a plea deal his defense reached with the prosecution. While this penalty has not yet been enacted, the presiding judge has agreed to the deal and will formally sentence Gibson soon, a judicial branch spokesperson told Alpha News.<\/p>\n
The plea deal also dismisses two other unrelated cases; one where Gibson allegedly threw large rocks at a police car and another where he was accused of stealing from Home Depot at least 10 times and up to 194 times.<\/p>\n
Gibson was propelled to online infamy after a video went viral that shows him throwing a heavy metal trash can lid into the back of a police officer\u2019s head near Nicollet Mall in Minneapolis. The officer is seen immediately collapsing, unconscious, as the crowd cheers. This attack occurred during a riot that was inspired by a false internet rumor that police had killed a black man earlier that day.<\/p>\n
The officer sustained a head injury and was treated for possible spinal damage, according to the original statement of probable cause that warranted Gibson\u2019s arrest.<\/p>\n

The attack at Nicollet Mall was not the only time Gibson has been accused of using violence against police during a riot. One of the charges that was dismissed, thanks to his recent plea deal, alleges that he threw \u201cheavy rocks at a squad [car]\u201d as police attempted to respond \u201cto a stabbing during a riot situation\u201d on May 28, 2020. This was during the peak of the George Floyd riots.<\/p>\n
The other charge that was dismissed is not riot-related. It alleges that Gibson stole $3,386 of goods from Home Depot across 10 visits to the retailer.<\/p>\n
The maximum penalty that could have been imposed against Gibson based on the three felony cases was 30 years in prison. However, he will now serve zero years behind bars.<\/p>\n
The punishment provided under the terms of the plea bargain for knocking a police officer unconscious is so minimal that it\u2019s lower than the typical minimum sentence for such a crime. This type of sentencing is allowed in Minnesota at the discretion of a judge; it\u2019s called a \u201cdispositional departure.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Supreme Court dismisses charges against alleged child molester because of \u2018gross negligence\u2019 by police<\/h3>\n
Here ya go. Just flee the state to avoid prosecution for a couple years and the charges get dismissed! Whitey Bulger had the wrong lawyer.<\/p>\n
A North Las Vegas man accused of sexually assaulting a child will walk free after the Nevada Supreme Court ruled that \u201cgross negligence\u201d by local law enforcement caused a long enough delay to violate his constitutional right to a speedy trial.<\/p>\n
A three-judge panel led by Justice James Hardesty ruled last month in favor of Rigoberto Inzunza, arrested in 2017 on 16 charges of sexually assaulting a nine-year-old girl when he lived with the girl\u2019s mother in 2008.<\/p>\n
The court order upheld a lower court\u2019s decision to dismiss charges against Inzunza over the 26-month delay between initial charges being filed against him in 2014 and his subsequent arrest more than two years later in New Jersey. That delay \u2014 attributed by the court to \u201dsomething more than mere negligence, but less than bad-faith intentional misconduct\u201d by law enforcement \u2014 violated Inzuna\u2019s constitutional right to a speedy trial, the judges said in the order.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe only step taken by law enforcement to apprehend Inzunza was putting the arrest warrant in (a federal) database,\u201d Hardesty wrote in the order. \u201cThus, we hold the investigation by law enforcement weighs in favor of Inzunza. The actions \u2014 or in this case the inaction \u2014 of law enforcement, despite the overwhelming information provided by (the victim\u2019s) mother to locate Inzunza, is fatal to the State\u2019s argument.\u201d<\/p>\n
A spokesman for the City of North Las Vegas did not return a request for comment on the case by publication time.<\/p>\n
According to the order, Inzunza allegedly sexually assaulted a nine-year-old girl when he was living with the girl\u2019s mother as a live-in babysitter, with the abuse continuing for a year until he moved out and relocated to New Jersey. Six years later, the girl disclosed the sexual abuse with her therapist, who informed her mother and filed a report with the North Las Vegas police department.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
