By Craig Kapitan - Express-News


A former prosecutor with a reputation for taking on more indigent defense cases than any other San Antonio lawyer is under investigation after a judge's signatures on reimbursement forms for such work appeared to be forged, the Bexar County Sheriff's Office said Wednesday.

Detective Louis Antu, a spokesman for the sheriff's office, said Hilda Valadez came under suspicion after a clerk for a state district judge noticed the signatures didn't appear to match the judge's.

He declined to name the judge, citing the ongoing investigation.

Firearm sales way up during Holiday Season
CBSSacramento -

ROCKLIN (CBS13) — If you’ve pulled the trigger on a new firearm this holiday season, join the club.

As in your neighborhood shooting club, because faster than a speeding bullet, guns are going out the door.

Well, not right away, of course — there is that 10-day waiting period, 11 here at TDS Guns in Rocklin, where Bob Norgard wasn’t caught off-guard.

He’s making his purchase today so he’ll have his firearm under the Christmas tree as he joins a growing number of people who say they’re simply “doing what they need to do to protect themselves and their family.”

Ho Ho Ho!! This kid really sleighs me!

Schoolgirl threatens to kill Santa Claus if he doesn't bring the right presents
A 13-year-old girl has shocked her mother by asking Father Christmas for a list of presents and threatening to kill him if he doesn't comply. 
Metro.co.uk -

Christmas letters to Santa asking for a new bike or toy are usually endearing notes penned by wide-eyed innocent children.


But Mekeeda Austin has warned Father Christmas that he will be ‘killed’ if he fails to deliver at least two of her long list of gifts – including a BlackBerry smartphone and ‘the real-life Justin Bieber’.


The 13-year-old goes even further and threatens to ‘hunt down’ Old Nick’s reindeer so she can ‘cook them and serve their meat to homeless people on Xmas day’.


Her mother, Tracey, from Brickhill, Bedford, found the note – which ends ‘Remember… two of these, or you die’ – in Mekeeda’s school bag but has vowed to try to meet her daughter’s demands rather than punish her.


‘When I first found the letter, I thought it was funny. Now I think I’d better get her what she wants. The last thing I want is for her to kill Santa,’ said Mrs Austin, 40.


And the demanding Mekeeda added: ‘I don’t really believe in Santa any more but I was angry because I thought I wasn’t going to get all the presents I wanted this year.

‘I want all of these things and I don’t see why I shouldn’t get them.’

Does anyone need more proof that we need to build the Keystone pipeline to bring Canadian oil to the US?

Other than President Obama who appears to be clueless and is playing political games that is?


Iran army declines comment on MP's Hormuz exercise remarks
Reuters -

TEHRAN (Reuters) - A member of the Iranian parliament's National Security Committee said on Monday that the military was set to practice its ability to close the Gulf to shipping at the narrow Strait of Hormuz, the most important oil transit channel in the world, but there was no official confirmation.


The legislator, Parviz Sarvari, told the student news agency ISNA: "Soon we will hold a military maneuver on how to close the Strait of Hormuz. If the world wants to make the region insecure, we will make the world insecure."

Contacted by Reuters, a spokesman for the Iranian military declined to comment.

Oh nooooooooooo!!

Maybe we can ship all of our government butter there and pay off our National Debt?

But do it quickly before the Chinese sell them their butter


Norway butter shortage threatens Christmas treats
Times Live -

An acute butter shortage in Norway, one of the world's richest countries, has left people worrying how to bake their Christmas goodies with store shelves emptied and prices through the roof.

The shortfall, expected to last into January, amounts to between 500 and 1,000 tonnes, said Tine, Norway's main dairy company, while online sellers have offered 500-gramme packs for up to 350 euros ($465).

The dire shortage poses a serious challenge for Norwegians who are trying to finish their traditional Christmas baking -- a task which usually requires them to make at least seven different kinds of biscuits.

When are people going to get angry?

Typical.

The drunk driver survives the crash that took the life of the other driver.

Of course he was also driving the wrong-way down the highway to boot.


Victim of DWI crash never let friends drive drunk
By Eva Ruth Moravec - Express-News


Christina Renee Flores would do anything she could to keep her friends and family from the dangers of drunken driving, people who knew her said.

The single mother of three was known to pay for cabs and hotel rooms for her intoxicated loved ones, but it was more common for Flores, 41, to pick up those who needed a ride.

Early Saturday, Flores was awakened to a phone call from a man she was dating, asking for a ride home from a bar.

Girl Thug?

A brute of a girl apparently.

Yet I am sure someone will write and tell me, I'm wrong.

San Antonio police early Sunday arrested a woman accused of injuring her aunt on Saturday during an argument over the woman's 2-year-old daughter.

Marina Villarreal, 22, is set to be booked in Bexar County Jail on one count of injury to an elderly, causing serious bodily injury. A judge set bail at $10,000.

An arrest warrant affidavit states Villarreal, who lives with her mother, her 67-year-old aunt and her daughter, reportedly left the toddler with her relatives for the night on Friday. After her mother picked her up from a friend's house Saturday, the women began to discuss the care of the girl, the affidavit states. The argument escalated, and the women reportedly were pushing each other when Villarreal's aunt, Rosemary Castillo, got involved.

Convicted man was in jail when crime was committed
By Brian Rogers - Houston Chronicle



Sentenced to life in prison in November for armed robbery, LaDondrell Montgomery insisted he was not the shadowy figure on surveillance video. He swore the eyewitness identifying him were flat wrong.

If only the 36-year-old habitual offender had an alibi. If only he could remember exactly where he was that day of the robbery.

A week after jurors sentenced Montgomery, his attorney was researching the felon's lengthy rap sheet.
