National Football League Security Checks Detroit police ready to execute security plan for NFL Draft
National Football League (NFL) Security Checks
- As the NFL puts the finishing touches ahead of Thursday, Detroit police are doing final checks on their security plan, which they've been developing over the last year.
On Tuesday, K-9 Officer Hobbs was at the NFL Draft theater conducting one of the many sweeps fans will see during the three-day event.
He's assigned to the Wayne County Sheriff's Office, one of the agencies helping Detroit police secure the high-profile event.
They'll get support from the so-called Casper unit, plainclothes officers who blend into the crowd that may hit max capacity.
Security screenings will take place at entrance points to ensure no weapons make it in, and police want parents to know this:
"We all need to be responsible for kids who may be out here, not to just drop them off and leave. Be responsible adults. We will be enforcing curfew. If your children are down here, have an adult with you at all times," Fulgenzi said.
If a child wanders off, have them approach an officer who can contact the dispatch center to help them reunite with their parents.
And parents, make sure you have a plan with your family in case cell service is spotty. #OnePride #Detroit

Israel Vows Response To Iran's Unprecedented Attack
Israel’s army chief on Monday vowed a response to Iran’s unprecedented attack against the country.
Six months of war between Israel and the Palestinian terror group Hamas in Gaza, sparked by the terror attack in Israel that killed 1,200 people and resulted in hundreds of people taken hostage.
“This launch of so many (Iranian) missiles, cruise missiles, and UAVs into the territory of the State of Israel will be met with a response,” Israeli army chief General Herzi Halevi said, addressing troops at the Nevatim military base hit in Iran’s Saturday barrage.
But the military also said it would not be distracted from its war against Hamas in Gaza.
Iran launched more than 300 drones and missiles at Israel late Saturday, according to Israel’s military which said nearly all were intercepted.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with his war cabinet late Monday to discuss possible reactions, local media said, as Israel issued its first official comment on the deadly Syria strike.
“These were people who engaged in terrorism against the State of Israel,” military spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said. “There was not a single diplomat there as far as I know.”
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps named two generals as among seven of its members killed in the consular attack.

Israel Withdrawals All Ground Troops From Southern Gaza, leaving Just One IDF Brigade In The Enclave
The Israel Defense Forces announced a full withdrawal of ground forces from southern Gaza on Sunday, leaving a smaller force to maintain operations in the whole of the strip.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also delivered remarks at the beginning of a cabinet meeting on Sunday, reiterating that Israel would not agree to any cease-fire unless Hamas frees all remaining hostages. The bulk of the troops withdrawing in the coming days will be leaving Khan Younis, which had served as Hamas' central bastion in the south.
"Today, Sunday April 7th, the IDF’s 98th commando division has concluded its mission in Khan Yunis. The division left the Gaza strip in order to recuperate and prepare for future operations," the IDF said in a statement.
Netanyahu promised his cabinet that the war in Gaza would continue, however, arguing that "there is no war more just than this one."
"I have made it clear to the international community: There will be no ceasefire without the return of the hostages. It simply will not happen. This is the policy of the Government of Israel and I welcome the fact that the Biden administration made it clear on Friday that this is still its position as well," Netanyahu said.
"I would like to clarify something else: It is not Israel that is preventing a deal. Hamas is preventing a deal. Its extreme demands are designed to bring about a ceasefire and leave it intact, to ensure its survival, existence and ability to endanger our citizens and soldiers. Capitulation to Hamas's demands would allow it to try and repeat the crimes of October 7 again and again, as it has promised to do," he added.

Father of Michigan school shooter found guilty of manslaughter weeks after mother’s conviction
#Michigan #watch Father of Michigan school shooter found guilty of manslaughter weeks after mother’s conviction
James Crumbley, the father of the teenager who killed four students at a Michigan high school in 2021, was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter in a trial that comes a month after the shooter’s mother was convicted of the same charges.
Crumbley was convicted of four counts of involuntary manslaughter, a charge that carries a maximum punishment of up to 15 years in prison, which would run concurrently.
James Crumbley is set to be sentenced on April 9 at 9 a.m., the judge said in court. His wife, Jennifer Crumbley, will be sentenced at the same date and time.

Jury Deliberates in James Crumbley’s Michigan School Shooting Trial
Witness testimony and closing arguments ended on Wednesday. Mr. Crumbley faces involuntary manslaughter charges for the four students killed by his son.
James Crumbley “did nothing” to prevent his son from carrying out Michigan’s deadliest school shooting, prosecutors said in closing arguments on Wednesday, while his defense attorney argued that he was unaware of his son’s troubled mental state or plans to attack his schoolmates.
A jury must now decide whether Mr. Crumbley should be held partially responsible for his son’s rampage, which killed four people and injured seven others. The boy’s mother, Jennifer Crumbley, was convicted last month by a different jury in the same courtroom.
Prosecutors took the rare step of bringing criminal charges against the Crumbleys for the shooting at Oxford High School on Nov. 30, 2021. They accused Mr. Crumbley of missing cries for help from his son, Ethan, who was 15 at the time and complaining of mental health issues, and of failing to secure the gun used in the shooting.
“James Crumbley was presented with the easiest, most glaring opportunities to prevent the deaths of these four students,” Karen McDonald, the prosecutor in Oakland County, said in closing arguments. “And he did nothing.”

Mariell Lehman, Mr. Crumbley’s defense lawyer, told the jury that prosecutors had left plenty of room for reasonable doubt. “You heard no testimony, and you saw no evidence, that James had any knowledge that his son was a danger to anyone,” she said.
Mr. Crumbley has been in jail since December 2021, when he and his wife were each charged with four counts of involuntary manslaughter for the deaths of Madisyn Baldwin, 17; Tate Myre, 16; Justin Shilling, 17; and Hana St. Juliana, 14. The couple requested separate trials. Unlike his wife, Mr. Crumbley chose not to testify in his own defense.
The witness lists in the two trials were similar, but there were a few key differences in the evidence presented.

At Ms. Crumbley’s trial, lawyers pored over her communications with her son, including months of text messages, as prosecutors tried to paint her as a detached and negligent mother. In the case of Mr. Crumbley, the testimony focused more on the Sig Sauer pistol that prosecutors say he bought his son as an early Christmas present four days before the shooting.

Law enforcement officials who searched the Crumbleys’ home shortly after the attack testified this week that they had found the storage case for the gun lying open on the parents’ bed, along with an empty box of ammunition. They said there was no indication that the case had been locked.
Ms. Lehman said that before the shooting, Mr. Crumbley did not know whether his son was aware of the gun’s hiding place. During her rebuttal, Ms. McDonald pulled on a pair of gloves, picked up the murder weapon and a cable lock, and demonstrated for the jury that it could be locked in a matter of seconds.
Prosecutors also walked the jury through several entries in the shooter’s journal, including one that appeared to have been written the day before the shooting. “I have access to the gun and the ammo,” the entry said. “I am fully committed to this now.”

It was not clear whether either of the shooter’s parents had seen the journal entries before the attack. But they were called to school on the morning of Nov. 30, after a teacher saw their son making violent drawings. Those drawings included an object that looked like the gun Mr. Crumbley had purchased, and phrases including “help me” and “blood everywhere.”
Neither the Crumbleys nor school officials searched the teenager’s backpack, which held the weapon. According to testimony from law enforcement, Mr. Crumbley, who had been working as a driver for DoorDash, made deliveries after the meeting and did not return home to check on the pistol until after he had learned about the shooting.
Ethan Crumbley pleaded guilty to 24 charges, including first-degree murder, and was sentenced last year to life in prison without the possibility of parole. He did not testify in his either of his parents’ trials.
Prosecutors called 15 witnesses to the stand in Mr. Crumbley’s trial, including people who saw the shooting and law enforcement officials who investigated it. The defense called only one witness: Karen Crumbley, the defendant’s sister. She said that until the shooting, she had never seen a reason to be overly concerned about her nephew.
Neither did Mr. Crumbley, according to his lawyer.
“He didn’t know,” Ms. Lehman told the jury. “He didn’t know what was going on with his son. He didn’t know what his son was planning. He didn’t know that his son knew where the guns were. And he didn’t know that his son had somehow obtained access to those guns, or a gun. He didn’t know.”

US Attorney Mark Totten battles drug pipeline fueled by Mexican Cartels causing record high overdose
#Mexico #UnitedStates Attorney Mark Totten battles drug pipeline fueled by Mexican Cartels, causing record high overdose deaths #Fentanyl
Drug overdose deaths have hit another record high in the United States with more than 110,000 people dead in one year.
“The drug landscape right now is often changing, and it is especially concerning. The most striking characteristic is the sheer number of people who are dying. It’s largely being driven by one drug, and that is fentanyl, which is highly, highly lethal. it’s showing up in ways where people don’t necessarily realize what they’re taking. It’s showing up in fake pills.” #michigan
