Arrest Made in the 1979 Etan Patz Missing Persons Case, Disappearance & Death … Questioning Suspect NJ Man in Custody … Individual Not New to Case (Update: Pedro Hernandez Confesses to Murder)

Breaking News … Arrest made in the 33 year old missing persons case of Etan Patz.

New York City Police Commissioner Ray Kelly has stated that there has been an arrest made in the 1979 Etan Patz missing persons case.  The suspect in question was arrested Wednesday and brought to NYC for questioning. After all this time, could it be true? Could there finally be answers as to what happened to Etan Patz who disappeared in 1979 as we was on his way to school. Etan Patz vanished on May 25, 1979, while walking alone to his school bus stop for the first time just two blocks from his home in New York’s SoHo home. The irony that the arrest was made one day prior to the 33 year anniversary of Etan Patz’ disappearance.  Could there finally be Justice for Etan?

Just a month ago police did a full scale search of the basement of an apartment building in NYC looking for Etan Patz without results. However, this cold case appears to have heated up. We can remember that it was the high profile case of Etan Patz that gave rise to the missing children’s campaign on milk cartons.

As reported at NY4, police are questioning and have arrested a New Jersey man. His name has yet to be released; however, the individual is not new to the case and  his name has been known to investigators and he did live and work in the neighborhood at the time when Patz disappeared in 1979.

The NYPD is questioning a New Jersey man in connection with the disappearance of Etan Patz, the 6-year-old boy who vanished more than 30 years ago as he walked to the school bus from his SoHo home, NBC 4 New York first reported Thursday.

Police picked the man up sometime Wednesday evening and brought him to New York City for questioning, sources said.

The man is known to investigators and not anyone new in the case, law enforcement sources say. He worked and lived in Patz’s neighborhood when the boy disappeared.

As reported at Fox News this morning, police state that He [the suspect] has made statements implicating himself in the case.

UPDATE I: NY Daily News; Etan Patz case: NYPD says New Jersey man implicated self in 6-year-old’s ‘disappearance and death’

“An individual now in custody has made statements to NYPD detectives implicating himself in the disappearance and death of Etan Patz 33 years ago,” Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said

UPDATE II: 51 Year Old Pedro Hernandez Confesses to the Murder of Etan Patz.

51 year old Pedro Hernandez has confessed to the murder of then 6 year old Etan Patz.  Pedro Hernandez of Maple Shade, NJ, has been arrested in the 1979 death and disappearance of Etan Patz. According to accounts, Hernandez admitted to luring the Etan into the store with candy, strangling him, and placing the body in a box. Hernandez stated that he put the box out with the trash and when he came back later, the box was gone.

A man has been arrested in the 1979 disappearance of a 6-year-old New York City boy. It’s the first arrest ever made in a case that helped give rise to the nation’s missing-children movement.

New York Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly says Pedro Hernandez of Maple Shade, N.J., has been arrested in the killing of Etan Patz (AY’-tahn payts). It’s not immediately clear whether Hernandez has a lawyer.

Kelly says Hernandez confessed to the crime. Hernandez worked at a convenience store near Etan’s Manhattan home. A law enforcement official says Hernandez told investigators this week he suffocated the boy and left his body in a box in an alley

Antolin Garcia-Torres Arrested on Suspicion of Murder & Kidnapping of Missing 15 Year Old Sierra LaMar

There has been a break in the case of missing 15 year old Sierra LaMar. Authorities have arrested 21 year old Antolin Garcia-Torres on suspicion of murder and kidnapping in the disappearance of Sierra LaMar. According to the police press conference, they stated that they had a lot of physical evidence in the case that connects Antolin Garcia-Torres to the disappearance of  Sierra LaMar.   The Northern California teen Sierra LaMar has been missing since March 16, 2012 when she was last seen at 6 AM leaving for school.

Authorities have arrested a man in the kidnapping and death of a Northern California teenager whose disappearance more than two months ago has prompted hundreds of volunteers to turn out for organized searches.

Antolin Garcia-Torres was arrested Monday evening at a Safeway store in Morgan Hill, Santa Clara County Sheriff Laurie Smith said at a late Monday news conference.

“We believe we have probable cause that he committed the kidnapping and murder of Sierra LaMar,” she said.

Earlier this month, investigators located a red Volkswagen Jetta that they said may have been connected to Sierra Lemar’s  abduction. Surveillance cameras and witnesses put the car near the area where authorities believed the 15 year old disappeared. According to reports, Antolin Garcia-Torres is the owner of the red Jetta in connection with this case of missing Sierra LaMar. DNA evidense was found that links Torres to clothing found in her backpack.

Garcia-Torres, a resident of nearby San Martin, is the owner of the red Jetta that authorities seized on May 8th in connection with the case. A source tells KTVU authorities found DNA evidence that links Garcia-Torres to clothing found in the missing girl’s backpack, which was recovered after she vanished.

Authorities told KTVU Garcia-Torres had been under 24-hour surveillance since he was identified as a possible suspect at both his home and at the Safeway store. A source tells the station Garcia-Torres was questioned for over two hours Monday.

Three Chicago Occupiers (#NATO3 ) Brian Church, Jared Chase & Brent Vincent Betterly Arrested On Domestic Terror Charges Ahead Of NATO Protests – Plotted To Firebomb Obama’s Campaign HQ, Rahm Emanuel’s Home & Shoot Up Police Stations

Yup, they are just like the Tea party …

Three men, Brian Church, Jared Chase & Brent Vincent Betterly (#NATO3 ) have been arrested in Chicago, IL ahead of the NATO protests, and charged with possession of an explosive or incendiary device, conspiracy to commit terrorism and providing material support to terrorism. They allegedly planned to attack four police stations with the Molotov cocktails in hopes of slowing down the police response to the higher-profile attacks accused like that of attacks on President Obama’s campaign headquarters, Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s home.

A band of out-of-state “domestic terrorists” was accused Saturday of planning to attack President Barack Obama’s campaign headquarters and Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s home — and firebomb police stations and squad cars — declaring that after the NATO Summit “the city will never be the same,” police and prosecutors said.

One of the conspirators warned: “The city doesn’t know what it’s in for,” prosecutors said.

But undercover Chicago Police officers infiltrated the group of NATO Summit protesters in recent weeks. They were with the protesters while they allegedly made Molotov cocktails — bottles filled with flammable liquid that are used as firebombs, sources said.

“We have people watching them do it,” one law enforcement source told the Chicago Sun-Times.

The trio includes Brian Church, 27, of Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.; Jared Chase, 24, of Keene, N.H.; and Brent Vincent Betterly, 24, who told police he lives in Massachusetts. Each was ordered held on a $1.5 million bond Saturday.

Top 10 FBI’s Most Wanted Fugitive Adam Mayes Caught & Arrested in New Albany, MS … Missing and Abducted 12 Year Old Alexandria Bain & 8 Year Old Kyliyah Bain Found Alive and Safe (UPDATE: Mayes Dead)

Breaking News … Fantastic new in the developing story of missing Alexandria Bain & Kyliyah Bain …

35 year old fugitive Adma Mayes has been caught and arrested in New Albany, Mississippi. Missing and abducted 12 year old Alexandria Bain and her  8 year old sister Kyliyah Bain have been found safe and alive. Mayes is in critical condition after a self inflicted gun shot to the head after authorities and SWAT moved in on the kidnapping and murder suspect.

The Mississippi man suspected of killing a Tennessee mother and daughter was caught Thursday evening and the two other young daughters he is suspected of kidnapping were found alive, though there were conflicting reports of whether the suspect is alive or dead.

Adam Mayes, 35, on America’s Most Wanted Fugitive List, was caught in Mississippi, Union County Sheriff Jimmy Edwards confirmed.

Guntown Police Chief Michael Hall says a SWAT team located Mayes in New Albany, Miss., with the help of a tip. When they moved in to apprehend him, he shot himself

UPDATE I: Adam Mayes Shot himself to death. Most of us expected that this is the way that this kidnapping would end with the suspected kidnapper and murderer killing himself. Although we can thank God that he did not harm the two sisters.

Two Tennessee girls missing since their mother and sister were murdered were rescued today in Mississippi, where their suspected abductor apparently shot himself to death, an FBI official said.

“The girls were found alive and appear to be unharmed,” Daniel McMullen, the FBI special agent in charge for the state of Mississippi, told reporters. “Officers also apprehended top 10 fugitive Adam Mayes. Preliminary reports indicate Mayes shot himself in the head and was later pronounced dead in an area hospital.”

UPDATE II: Adam Mayes found in Union County, MS.

Game wardens happened upon Mayes in a heavily wooded area behind a small church near his mother’s home in Mississippi, about 45 minutes from the Tennessee border. As they approached him, he shot himself. An ambulance transported him in critical condition to Baptist Hospital in Alpine, Miss., where he was later pronounced dead.

Occupy Cleveland Anarchists Arrested For Trying to Blow Up Ohio Bridge, Attack NATO Summit in Chicago & Republican Convention

More from the Barack Obama endorsed Occupy movement … Yeah, these folks are just like the Tea Party.

Once again, because the Occupy Protest movement is  all about peace and non-violent actions. Sure it is. How many incidents have to occur before it becomes obvious that this is the norm, not the exception. Five individuals associated with Occupy Cleveland arrested for plotting to blow up Ohio bridge and much more …

Douglas Wright, 26, Brandon Baxter, 20, and Anthony Hayne, 35, Conner Stevens, 20 and Joshua Stafford, 23 have been charged with conspiracy and attempted use of explosive materials to damage physical property affecting interstate commerce.

Five anarchist affiliated with the Occupy Cleveland protest movement were arrested by the FBI yesterday for plotting to blow up a Cleveland, Ohio bridge, attacking an upcoming NATO summit in Chicago and the Republican National Convention in Florida. But really, they are a peaceful movement, just ask them.  The Occupy Cleveland was forced to cancel their protests.

Occupy Cleveland canceled a scheduled rally Tuesday after a group of men connected to the organization were arrested by the FBI.

In a news release, Occupy Cleveland said the five men arrested in a terror plot to blow up the Route 82 bridge in Brecksville were “in no way representing or acting on behalf of Occupy Cleveland” and Occupy is rooted in non-violent principles.

The five Occupy terrorists have been charged with conspiracy and attempted use of explosive materials to damage physical property affecting interstate commerce. The Occupy Cleveland folks tried to distance themselves, much to no avail. Sorry, but I could only imagine that if this was anyone affiliated with the Tea Party. The MSM would have front page and headline news that they were associated with the right wing Tea Party.

Douglas Wright, 26, Brandon Baxter, 20, and Anthony Hayne, 35, all self-described anarchists, have been charged with conspiracy and attempted use of explosive materials to damage physical property affecting interstate commerce. Two other men Conner Stevens, 20 and Joshua Stafford, 23 were also arrested and may face similar charges.

As we have asked in the past … when is the Justice Department going to deem the Occupy movement a domestic terror organization? Can you only imagine what the reaction would have been if this was anyone involved with the Tea Party?

TSA Baggage Inspector Clayton Keith Dovel Indicted for Theft of Apple iPads

TSA … Groping and Robbing the public …

Isn’t this special, while some TSA agents are groping old woman, children and cancer survivors in the name of protecting us from terrorism, other TSA agents are stealing from us. TSA agent, 36 year old Clayton Keith Dovel, was arrested and indicted in the theft of Apple iPads. Duruing his arrest, Dovel was caught in the possession of several other iPads. He stated that they belonged to him; however, could not say where he bought them.

 A Transportation Security Administration baggage inspector at Dallas/Fort Worth Airport has been indicted in the theft of Apple iPads from luggage over eight months.

Clayton Keith Dovel, 36, of Bedford was arrested Feb. 1 and has been suspended indefinitely, officials said.

The investigation led to the recovery of eight stolen iPads, including one that was among Dovel’s possessions at Terminal E when he was arrested, airport police said.

His attorney, Greg Westfall, declined to comment.

The indictments that the Tarrant County grand jury issued this week charge Dovel with theft by a public servant of items valued at up to $20,000. If convicted, he could face two to 10 years in prison.

Who thinks that the people that should be frisked and groped are actually the TSA agents?

George Zimmerman Charged with Second Degree Murder in Death of Trayvon Martin … Turns Himself In to Authorities

How is justice defined in the death of Trayvon Martin? Will Justice truly be blind?

After 45 days, George Zimmerman has been charged with second degree murder in the death of Trayvon Martin. The incident has caused outrage and racial tensions over accusations of racial profiling on one side and the an over-zealous media and bias media that has jumped to conclusions without knowing the facts as well as putting forth to the public an edited and deceptive 9-11 audio tape presenting  Zimmerman in a racist slant. Zimmerman faces a possible life in prison if convicted’ However, second degree murder under Florida law states that a killing was carried out without premeditation but with “a depraved mind regardless of human life.”

(George Zimmerman – Source: Seminole County Sheriff’s Office)

George Zimmerman, the neighborhood watch volunteer who fatally shot Florida teenager Trayvon Martin 45 days ago, was charged with second-degree murder Wednesday, marking a turning point in a case that has provoked nationwide debate over racial profiling.

Florida special prosecutor Angela B. Corey, who announced the charge in Jacksonville, said that “the search for justice has brought us to this moment.” Zimmerman turned himself in and was brought Wednesday evening to the Seminole County jail.

After a public campaign by the MSM and those who cried racism,managed to some how force the state prosecutor to file charges against an individual who was originally let go. However, the prosecutors have to tough road to hoe as they must prove Zimmerman’s shooting of Martin was rooted in hatred or ill will. This in the face of Zimmerman’s claims of self-defense. This is hardly a slam dunk.

Legal experts said Corey chose a tough route with the murder charge, which could send Zimmerman to prison for life if he’s convicted, over manslaughter, which usually carries 15-year prison terms and covers reckless or negligent killings.

The prosecutors must prove Zimmerman’s shooting of Martin was rooted in hatred or ill will and counter his claims that he shot Martin to protect himself while patrolling his gated community in the Orlando suburb of Sanford. Zimmerman’s lawyers would only have to prove by a preponderance of evidence – a relatively low legal standard – that he acted in self-defense at a pretrial hearing to prevent the case from going to trial.

There’s a “high likelihood it could be dismissed by the judge even before the jury gets to hear the case,” Florida defense attorney Richard Hornsby said.

Two Suspects Arrested in Tulsa Shootings (Alvin Watts & Jacob England) … Charged with three counts of murder (UPDATE: Suspects Father Murdered 2 Years Ago … UPDATE: Jake England Left Message on Facebook)

The police have made two arrests in the Tulsa, Oklahoma shooting deaths. The two suspects arrested have been identified as 19 year old Jake England and 32 year old Alvin Watts. The two will be charged with three counts of murder and two counts of shooting with intent to kill. The police say that England and Alvin Watts are responsible for the shooting deaths of Dannaer Fields, William Allen and Bobby Clark.

Authorities in Oklahoma arrested two people early Sunday in connection with a deadly spate of apparently random shootings in Tulsa that have had residents on edge.

About 30 representatives from four law enforcement agencies — the Tulsa police, Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office, the U.S. Marshals Service and the FBI — had been working around the clock looking for the person that authorities say killed three people and wounded two others in shooting attacks early Friday.

The police identified the arrested men as Jake England, 19, and Alvin Watts, 32. They were taken into custody from a home in Tulsa.

UPDATE I: The father of murder suspect Jake England was murdered two years ago.

Carl England was shot to death at the Comanche Park Apartments April 5, 2010, in what police believed was a domestic dispute. On Sunday, 19-year-old Jake England was arrested for murders committed on Good Friday, April 6.

UPDATE II:  Comments on Jake England’s FACEBOOK look like they hold answers to why he might have gone on a murder spree. Although his Facebook is no longer available, the following post was on his wall which speaks volumes.It would seem that those targeted were intentional and the murders were on the two year anniversary of his dad’s murder. 40 year old Pernell Jefferson is serving six years in prison for killing Jake England’s father, Carl. That’s it? Jake England will be serving the rest of his life for the murders he is alleged to have done.

Warning: Explicit language below the fold

7 Black California Boys Arrested in Attack on 15 Year Old Hispanic Boy … Obama, Sharpton, Jackson and MSM are Silent

ARE ALL HATE CRIMES CREATED EQUAL … NOT ACCORDING TO OBAMA, SHARPTON AND THE MSM …

Dear Barack Obama, how come this 15 year old Hispanic boy does not look like your son? Where is your outrage to this “hate crime”?  What’s the matter Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Oprah, Sinbad, Black Panthers, Barack Obama and the MSM … cat got your tongue?

Story Hat Tip: The Gateway Pundit

A 15 year old Hispanic boy was beaten and assaulted by 7 black teens as he walked home from the Cactus Middle School in Southern, CA. During the assault, the black teens made racially derogatory statements toward the Hispanic boy that were captured on video. The  teen thugs kicked the Hispanic boy multiple times in the head, knocked out several teeth requiring dental surgery and left shoe impressions on his skin.

Seven black teens have been arrested on suspicion that they committed a hate crime when they attacked a 15-year-old Hispanic boy while he was walking home from school in Southern California, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.

The March 14 beating in Palmdale was captured on video and posted on YouTube, but has since been removed from the site. The seven boys, ages 13 to 16, were arrested Wednesday for investigation of assault and committing a hate crime, Lt. Don Ford said.

The attack happened near Cactus Middle School, but Ford didn’t know if any of the teens involved were students there.

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy

Seven teens have been arrested on suspicion that they committed a hate crime; however, the police are seeking three more suspects. No arraignment date has not been set yet. How come All Sharpton is not calling for escalated civil obedience until the 3 remaining suspects are are arrested and all of the black teens are charged and convicted of a hate crime? I guess the story does not fit Sharpton’s narrative. How about you Barack Obama, why did you not interject yourself into this horrible event?

So the question remains, are all hate crimes created equal? This is what happens when the President of the United States Barack Obama picks “hate crime” winner and losers. Dear Mr. President, you once said there are no red states, no blues states, only the United States. Prove it. Or like the murders of  James Cooper and James Kouzaris, it does not fit your narrative nor is it have any “political value” to you?
