(White) Grandfather, 69, shot dead after opening door for 20-year-old (black) man who said he was being pursued   A 69-year-old Minnesota man has been shot dead after opening his door to a man who claimed he was being chased. Thomas Sonnenberg called 911 at 11:46am Friday for 20-year-old Devon Derrick Parker who police say told him he was being pursued by assailants with baseball bats. When police arrived at the home on the 3700 block of North Aldrich Avenue in north Minneapolis, they found Sonnenberg dead. Parker was apprehended inside the house. Police spokesperson John Elder earlier indicated that Parker and Sonnenberg were acquaintances, but Sonnenberg's daughter Raina Baldwin says that was not the case. 'No. Absolutely not,' she told the Mail Online through tears. 'He thought he was helping someone in need, that's why he let him into the house,' she said. Baldwin said she believes Parker was attempting to rob the house but did not realize that her mother was also in the home. Sonnenberg answered the door to Parker begging to come in because he was in danger. He let the young man inside and closed the door before calling 911. It was then that Parker shot him in the head. Thomas Sonnenberg's wife Elaine Sonnenberg, 68, was in the kitchen at the time of the shooting. 'When the murderer found out she was here, he threw her around and choked her, and he was going to rape her,' Baldwin told Mail Online. - (Black-on-white) |

Missouri executes black man for jeweler's 1991 death   The 56-year-old had been convicted of killing Stephen Honickman and badly injuring his wife, Florence, during a robbery at their jewelry shop in suburban St. Louis on July 27, 1991. KANSAS CITY, Mo. — In 1991, Herbert Smulls called jeweler Stephen Honickman and set up an appointment to meet at his store in suburban St. Louis. He said he wanted to buy a diamond for his fiancee. It was a set up. Smulls wanted to rob the store and took along a 15-year-old friend to help commit what became a far worse crime: Honickman was shot to death. Honickman's wife, Florence, was also shot, but survived by faking death in a pool of her own blood until the assailants left. Late Wednesday night, Smulls was put to death with a lethal dose of pentobarbital. Florence Honickman spoke to the media after the execution, flanked by her adult son and daughter. She questioned why it took 22 years of appeals before Smulls was put to death. Make no mistake, the long, winding and painful road leading up to this day has been a travesty of justice," she said. - (Black-on-white) |

Baltimore Mall Shooting: Black Shooter Kills Two White People, Wounds Five      In the recent Mall Of Columbia shooting, a black teenager walked into a mall with a shotgun, killed two white people his own age, possibly because he'd been rejected by a white girl in favor of a white man. Here's Darion Marcus Aguilar (pictured at left). This is a photo of one of the victims, Brianna Benlolo (pictured at right) and here's the other deceased white victim, Tyler Johnson: (pictured at right). Eric Holder has once again come out with his line about the US being a "Nation of Cowards" about race. This is true. The headlne above contains facts that won't even appear in most MSM stories, and will never appear in a headline. And all the stories will be about gun control, mental illness, depression, and metal detectors in malls. None of them will be about the real issue: that for a white girl to get into a relationship with a black or Hispanic teenager may be easier than getting out. There are young women every year who don't get out alive. That's a "Talk" worth having with your daughter. - (Black-on-white) |

Parents of slain Auburn student to file claim against university  COBB COUNTY, Ga. — The parents of a slain Auburn University student from Cobb County have filed an official claim against the school stating their belief that their daughter might still be alive if Auburn had a campus police department. Lauren Burk was kidnapped from the Auburn campus and murdered in March 2008. A jury convicted Courtney Lockhart, a dishonorably discharged solider, and a judge sentenced him to death for the crime. "It's like it happened yesterday," said Jim Burk, Lauren's father. "There's not a day that goes by that my family doesn't have her close in our mind and heart." "Losing a child is like carrying stones in your pocket at all times," said Lauren's mother, Viviane Guerschon. "You get used to the weight, but the weight is always there." According to police, Lockhart kidnapped Burk from a parking lot outside an Auburn dorm in a botched robbery attempt. Investigators said he forced her to strip, then drove around considering what to do with her. Deciding she needed to escape, police said Burk jumped from the moving car, but as she did, Lockhart shot her through the chest. She died in the street minutes later. - (Black-on-white) |

Black who murdered White Florida trooper should be executed this time   TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -- A South Florida drug trafficker convicted of killing a state trooper with a pipe bomb is once again scheduled to die. Gov. Rick Scott on Friday set Paul Augustus Howell's new execution date for Feb. 26, according to a letter Scott sent to the warden of Florida State Prison.

Howell was convicted of killing Florida Highway Patrol Trooper Jimmy Fulford with a bomb placed inside a gift-wrapped microwave oven 22 years ago. Authorities said the booby-trapped package was intended to kill two women in the Panhandle town of Marianna because they knew too much about a drug-related murder in Broward County. - (Black-on-white) |

Two (Black) Brothers Convicted of Murdering (White) Wendy Fisher  After more than three hours of deliberation, a jury finds both Trayon Washington and Pat Brown guilty for murdering Wendy Fisher. It's a verdict Fisher's family was hoping for. "We're so glad to have justice for our daughter and I believe she is up there in heaven just saying, 'Way to go momma, alright, alright dad, yeah,'" said Carol Fisher, Fisher's mother. "Each and every one of them came in here and told the truth and the right verdict was reached," said Jennifer Wright. Wright prosecuted the case. She says there was no one key piece of evidence that lead to the conviction, but rather the willingness of everyone involved to do their part. "I was pretty difficult. I didn't think I was going to be able to get up there and look them in the face but I did it and I'm glad I did it," said Madeleine North, Fisher's daughter. Fisher's daughter and her boyfriend Robert Russo witnessed the murder. As Fisher and Pat Brown began to argue, Russo came to her defense and the argument escalated. He says knowing the gun was aimed at him is hard to live with. "For the longest time, you blame yourself. If the gun was pointed at me? Were those bullets meant for me? And you question your role in the whole situation and what you could've done differently. But in the end, I just gotta tell myself it wasn't me. I'm not the one who had the gun. I'm not the one who pulled the trigger," said Russo. - (Black-on-white) |

(Black) Man Wanted For Beating Of Elderly (White) Woman Arrested In Illinois  The man identified as a person of interest in the beating of an elderly woman has been arrested in Illinois. Kwame Becton was taken into custody without incident by the Forest Park Police Department and will be extradited to Mississippi. On Tuesday, officers said they had three warrants out for Becton’s arrest. He was known to frequent the Chicago area, which is where the woman’s vehicle was found last Friday, so Southaven police worked with investigators in the Chicago area. Just a day before his arrest, Southaven Police Lieutenant Mark Little said he thought they would bring Becton in quickly. At least two task forces in the Chicago area were looking for Becton Wednesday. Georgie McKee was found severely beaten in her own home on December 30th. Someone had got into the 86-year-old’s home, beat her, cut her, and then apparently left with her car. - (Black-on-white) |
