13 Year Old Jayden Thomas & 14 Year Old Braxton Wood Missing Since 8/26/13 in Clare, MI (UPDATE: Found Safe in Chicago, IL)

13 year old Jayden Thomas and 14 year old Braxton Wood have been missing since August 26, 2013 in Clare, Michigan.

The Isabella County Sheriff’s Department says 13-year-old Jayden Thomas and 14-year-old Braxton Wood — of Clare and Mt. Pleasant  — were last seen on Monday, Aug. 26 in Clare.

Jayden is described as 5 feet, 3 inches tall and weighs about 120 lbs. She has blonde hair and hazel/blue eyes. Braxton is 5 feet 8 inches tall, weighs 125 lbs., and has blonde hair and blue eyes.

Clare is located at the crossroads of US-27 and US-10, about 2 1/2 hours from both Mackinaw City and Detroit.

Search continues for 2 missing teens.

Ed Wood and Braxton’s mother, Sarah Kiley, were with Jayden’s parents, Kelly and Art Drinkwine, Monday night. They said it doesn’t make any sense at all why the teens would run. Police say the two took off in a 2005 black Ford Explorer last Monday morning.

“It’s like they’ve fallen off the face of the earth. Nobody can find them. And I don’t know how,” said Kelly Drinkwine.

But police say they do have evidence the two aren’t too far away. Isabella County Sheriff’s Department Sgt. Tim Swanson said a camera caught the vehicle crossing the Mackinac Bridge last week. He also said cell phone towers in Bay City and Saginaw pinged the teens’ phones, but an exact location couldn’t be determined.

“We’re not mad. We’re not upset. We just want them home and make sure they’re safe,” said Ed Wood.

At this point, the sheriff’s office considers the two teens runaways, and because there is no evidence of imminent danger, there hasn’t been an Amber Alert issued. But both Jayden’s and Braxton’s parents aren’t buying it.

UPDATE I: Missing Michigan Teen Runaways Found Safe in Chicago.

The missing Michigan teens who left town together nearly two weeks ago have been found safe in Chicago this morning, authorities said.

Jayden Thomas, 13, of Clare, and Braxton Wood, 14, of Mount Pleasant, were first reported missing since Aug. 26. Braxton apparently took his mother’s black 2005 Ford Explorer during the early morning hours and picked up Jayden before taking off.

They were due to start their freshman year at different high schools last week, and their parents said the two even briefly broke up because of that.

Local law enforcement found the couple this morning in the back of the Ford Explorer in a parking lot adjacent to a Mobil gas station in Wrigleyville, a neighborhood in Chicago, Sgt. Tim Edeling of the Chicago Police Department 19th District told ABCNews.com.

If anyone has any information about the missing teens, Jayden Thomas and Braxton Wood, please contact the Isabella County Sheriff’s Office at 989-772-5911 or Private Investigator Mike Cook directly at 616-466-4274.

John Kerry: He Was For Assad, Before He was Against Him and Called Him Hitler … Kerry Seen in Pic Dining with Assad

How many of you would have had dinner with Adolf Hitler or Saddam Hussein?

Talk about your embarrassing pics and a lack of credibility. The UK Daily Mail has a 2009 photo of John Kerry having a pleasant dinner with Syrian president Bashar al-Assad and their wives. As reported at the Weekly Standard,  Kerry has met with Assad on numerous occasions and once lauded Assad in 2011 as being a “very generous”. Hmm, that is a far cry from what Kerry is saying these days. It would appear that Obama’s Secretary of State has a severe credibility issue. I guess Kerry was for Assad before he was against him. How is it that Kerry goes from an intimate dinner for four to calling him the Hitler of our time. Really? I mean seriously, how many get to dine with Hitler?  And this is the guy who is trying to sell us on attacking Syria?

Once again we see John Kerry, reporting for duty or is it reporting for dinner?

An astonishing photograph of John Kerry having a cozy and intimate dinner with Bashar al-Assad has emerged at the moment the U.S Secretary of State is making the case to bomb the Syrian dictator’s country and remove him from power.

Kerry, who compared Assad to Adolf Hitler and Saddam Hussein yesterday, is pictured around a small table with his wife Teresa Heinz and the Assads in 2009.

Assad and Kerry, then a Massachusetts senator, lean in towards each other and appear deep in conversation as their spouses look on.

A waiter is pictured at their side with a tray of green drinks, believed to be lemon and crushed mint

The picture was likely taken in February 2009 in the Naranj restaurant in Damascus, when Kerry led a delegation to Syria to discuss finding a way forward for peace in the region.

From 2009, the Weekly Standard:

Well, I personally believe that — I mean, this is my belief, okay?” Kerry said. “But President Assad has been very generous with me in terms of the discussions we have had. And when I last went to — the last several trips to Syria — I asked President Assad to do certain things to build the relationship with the United States and sort of show the good faith that would help us to move the process forward.”

Looks like John Kerry has protesters at his home telling him “Hands off Syria” and it does not look like a Tea Party rally.

Hey, and go to Patterico’s Pontification …  look who is shaking the hand of Assad, it is none other than two faced Nancy Pelosi. I guess she had to shake his hand in order to see what a miserable, murderous dictator he was.

JUSTICE SERVED … Texas Dad Will Not Charged Who Beat To Death the Man Who Was Raping His 5 Year Old Daughter

DON’T MESS WITH TEXAS … JUSTICE SERVED!!!

A Texas dad will not be charged with homicide after beating the man to death he caught raping his 5 year old daughter. Charge him? They should have given him a medal. The 23 year-old father beat 47 year old Jesus Flores to death for molesting his five year old girl in a secluded barn. Under Texas law, an individual is allowed to use deadly force in order to stop an aggravated sexual assault or sexual assault. There might not be a more justifiable deadly force case ever. The dad ran toward his daughter’s screams, who had been dragged to a secluded out building.  The father caught Flores in the act of raping his child, pulled Flores off his child and ‘inflicted several blows to the man’s head and neck area’. After having killed the dirt bag, the dad showed remorse and was sorry for beating the man to death. Kind of sad that the dad felt he needed to do this, maybe to prevent from being prosecuted.  However, you have no need to feel sorry sir, you did what any parent would have done. Or should we say, better have done.

A Texas father who discovered a man raping his five-year-old daughter and beat him to death with his bare hands will not be charged with homicide under state law.

A Lavaca County grand jury decided not to press charges against the 23-year-old father in the June 9th death of Jesus Mora Flores, 47, who was killed inside a remote shack after he was caught molesting the young girl.

Under Texas state law, deadly force is authorized and indeed, justified in order to stop an aggravated sexual assault and coupled with the fact that the harrowing 911 calls made by the father back claims he even tried to save the pedophile’s life led to the grand jury’s decision.

Lavaca County sheriff’s deputies said that the father, whose name has not been released to protect the little girl’s identity, sent her and her brother to feed the family’s chickens.

The boy rushed back to tell his dad that someone had grabbed his sister and taken her to a small secluded shack and the father rushed towards his daughter’s screams and arrived to find them both with their underwear off.

Flying into a rage, the father beat Flores unconscious, but attempted to call 911 for the rapist after he had made sure his daughter was safe.

Ex-Heavyweight Boxing Champion Tommy Morrison Dies at 44

Tommy Morrison, the former heavyweight champion, and who played the role of Tommy Gunn in “Rocky V” alongside Sylvester Stallone, has died at the age of 44. Morrison died in an Omaha, Nebraska hospital late Sunday night.  Morrison died at approximately 11:50 p.m. with his wife, Trisha, beside him. No cause of death was provided. In 1993, Morrison beat Foreman to win the WBO heavyweight title, but by February of 1996, Morrison had tested positive for HIV and his boxing career was over. He had denied he had the disease but was unable to attain a boxing license.  His wife also denied the allegations. Morrison finished with a record of 48-3-1 with 42 knockouts.

Trisha Morrison, who married Morrison in 2011, picked up that fight, and in a recent interview with ESPN.com insisted that Morrison had Guillain-Barre Syndrome, not HIV.

Holden declined to comment Monday on the cause of Morrison’s death.

“I don’t know what the official cause of death at the hospital will be,” he said.

As reported in USA Today, Morrison’s license was quickly suspended by Nevada, and the ban was, in effect, upheld by every other sanctioning body. Morrison said at a news conference he’d never fight again, blaming his plight on a “permissive, fast and reckless lifestyle.” Sadly, it would appear that his lifestyle never changed.

Tommy Morrison, the former heavyweight champion who stood toe-to-toe with Lennox Lewis and George Foreman and later tested positive for HIV, died Monday. He was 44.

Morrison died Sunday night at a Nebraska hospital, said Tony Holden, his longtime promoter and close friend. The family would not disclose the cause of death.

In 1993, Morrison beat Foreman to win the WBO heavyweight title, only to lose it to unheralded Michael Bentt in a defeat that scuttled a showdown with Lewis. Morrison would fight Lewis a couple of years later, getting knocked out in the sixth round in Atlantic City, N.J.

Drunk University of Iowa Student Samantha Goudie Blows an Incredible #.341 Breathalyzer Test & Tweets to Tell About It

And I am sure her parents are so proud …

22 year old University of Iowa coed Samantha Goudie had quite the Saturday night. Goudie managed to get arrested  for public intoxication at Kinnick Stadium after running out on to the field during her school’s 30-27 loss to Northern Illinois on Saturday night. Aren’t you supposed to do that when you win? But the amazing story, according to police records,  is that when given a Breathalyzer, she blew an incredible .341. Just a reminder, the legal limit in Iowa is .08. Is that possible to be .341 and still standing? I guess so, because not only could she stand, she was able to Tweet, and tweet she did … Goudie said that she has gained thousands of followers on Twitter following her tweets. Because isn’t that what life is all about, the narcissism of social media.

See the rest of the Tweets at The Blaze, oh my.

A note to Miss Goudie, you might want to scrub your account before seeking a job in the not too distant future.
